Honestly, I'd love to have an official, professionally crafted Lucasfilm DVD set, but, if the anamorphic thing doesn't happen, Lucas isn't going to get my money. Why reward him for treating these movies in a sub-industry-standard way?

About the idea of sending the SE discs back to Lucas, I don't mean to sound like a pessimistic curmudgeon, but how effective do you think this would really be? A huge number of people would have to get behind this, and Lucas has already demonstrated that he will do what he wants with little regard for his original fans. It's a very dramatic and poignant gesture, but by the time you send the discs back, he's already got your money.

If I'm just blinded by working way too long today and by allowing my negative side to come out too much, someone, please, feel free to show me the light that seems to be forever waning at the end of this tunnel.
