The "original crawl" on the new DVD is NOT the original crawl! Screenshot inside!

Boris, if they were going to use the actual 1977 crawl ie from the actual archives, then they would obviously use the EOD footage since it is already transfered and they obviously do not want to spend any money on this release. The trailer clip is clearly not the same as the EOD one.
The thing to remember is this: it doesn't matter one iota what they show in the preview trailer. Nowhere does it say that the footage contained in that trailer is the same exact footage that is going to be in the September DVDs. Who's to say they didn't make a custom edit showing the text crawl as the SW logo is still on-screen, to compress more into less time for the trailer? And who's to say they didn't fabricate a text crawl just for this promotional trailer?

Boris is right about one thing, at least. We can't jump to any conclusions until we've seen the actual DVDs ourselves.
