It is starting to look like, even if this release does not start flying off of the shelves, it will still sell reasonably well.
Lucas cares to invest in the OOT with a future release.
The Digital Bits has an excellent article in which they refute everyone of LFL's points one by one and prove that restoration is physically possible.
I think we need to decide what we will all write about to present a unified front; the real issue and the logical complaint here is, IMO, not that a better source doesn't exist but that the treatment of these film classics is sub-par.
Star Wars is an Academy Award-winning movie and is on the Academy's list of the top 100 films of all time, for crying out loud!
Why should movies such as SCREAM 3 and TRANSYLVANIA 6-5000 get the anamorphic treatment while the OOT is relegated to the realm of bonus material in non-anamorphic letterboxing from a 13 year old LaserDisc transfer?
We need Jay and the petitioners and forumites, however.
The more people, the better.
We need to make a lot of noise.
Definitely, but we've got to project our noise in the right directions.

I'll do this as soon as I have that list worked up today.
We can do this every week- each with a new place to concentrate on.
