If the DVDs are just going to be the same quality as the hundreds of other copies from Laserdisc then I don't think anyone should waste their money on them. I'm not going to pay LucasFilm or 20th Century Fox a premium price for a pristine copy of the SE and a basic Laserdisc transfer of the OOT! I haven't waited this long for that!

I understand your logic, but I think the DVDs will be better quality than the laserdiscs. Remember, they're coming from the laserdisc masters, not the laserdiscs themselves. Laserdiscs were limited in their picture quality (albeit way better than VHS) so I'm sure there was some picture quality lost in the process of transferring the information from the laserdisc masters onto the actual laserdiscs.

That's why I'm buying them, also because after all this talk about how good/bad they're going to look, my curiosity is just too strong not to buy them.
