That is a pretty good theory, but I still think they really don't know there is a demand out there for this set, and I think they are just as anxious as us to see the results. I just think the non-anamorphic release says they think it wont sell well, so they are not going to put too much money in this release. But if the results are positive to them that these sold well, then I believe Lucas will then change his mind.

I think they look at the outcry for the O-OT as a niche group who is yelling and screaming for them, not the masses. Whatever you want to say the 2004 DVD releases sold very well, so in Lucas's mind, who is really left?

But that is where if this set sells well, then Lucas can say, "I guess alot of fans were left, maybe it wasn't that niche group we thought it was."

I think the OT crowd has three groups now:

1. SE lovers
2. O-OT lovers
3. Both

And I think #3 is what Lucas is missing. I have three friends who bought the 2004 set, and enjoy it, but weren't as steadfast as me about wanting the O-OT, but all have stated on Sept. 12th they are buying it. And all of them tolerate Hayden in ROTJ, but I still think once they watch the O-OT for the first time in 10 years, they will wonder why they haven't clamored for it.

If this set sells well, then Lucas will realize the maxium audience he can sell future sets is to have both versions included, cause there isn't just one group of fans anymore who love the OT.

And I refuse to believe any bullshit in that press release, "We have no plans to release this ever again." That is just being a smart businessman, cause if they said, we will put out an Anamorphic Version in 2007, then who would buy this one? Devious yes, smart, yes.
