The DVDs seem to sound worse as the release approaches. Still I don’t have much of a choice about buying them since my VHS copies are on the fritz. I’ll end up buying the crappy DVD releases just because I need a copy of the OOT and I don’t like buying bootlegs. I know that it serves GL’s purposes more than my own and that sucks. I also know that my planned DVD purchase gives any number of posters here the moral high-ground over me and that’s not something I give up without careful consideration.

I agree with those that are angry about this DVD release and I think a message does need to be sent I just hope people aren’t fooling themselves. If you are avoiding the September releases to hurt George you had better avoid ALL LFL licensed products or you’re not doing much. If you want to hurt George then hurt him all the way; avoid the DVDs, avoid the comics, avoid everything LFL has a direct hand in. Don’t say “I’m not buying the September DVDs because I don’t want to give George my money” on one thread and then walk into another thread and say, “Yep I’ll buy KOTOR3 as soon as it comes out” or “I can’t wait for the next Indie movie” or “I’ll check out the new SW TV show when it comes out.” I respect anyone that actually can avoid giving George any money because I know I can’t. In fact if you can avoid buying any LFL crap I give you full authorization to flame me for my inability to do so. However, if you plan on supporting LFL in some other fashion then you have forfeited your right to ride my ass for buying the September DVDs.

This is another “if the shoe fits” post and it is directed at no one in particular.
