Believing in my heart this is the ONLY OT DVD release, I will certainly buy Star Wars, and perhaps even RotJ. I do think there will be an eventual OT release on whichever hi def format wins the war (ahem, since HD DVD has won the first round in picture quality, it's likely the inferior Blu Ray will be the winner ... if the past is any guide to nimrod consumer trends).
But I'm not holding my breath. I don't even plan on going Hi Def display myself till around 2009, when SED sets might start getting affordable. So this will be my Star Wars for the next five years, at least. Heheh, I'd probably watch the movie about 3 times during that period ... and RoTJ only once (which is why I'm debating even buying it).
If the picture quality is any improvement over the laserdiscs, I will be satisfied (but not happy). If the facsimile crawl has "DEATH STAR" on one line and matches the music cue the way it did in '77, I will be very satisfied. If prison-level laser blasts are returned to their '77 impact, I will be ecstatic. And if more subtle sound effects revert to '77 versions, I will be impressed.
Right now, I'm anticipating a personal reaction from "satisfied" -to- "very satisfied," and I'm not counting on either impressed or ecstatic.
As for sending my SE discs back to LFL, that was never my plan. Alas, my original plan is falling apart - - since this DVD release is not generating the excitement for a line-up on September 11 (where I was planning to tactlessly set fire to towering dual stacks of SE discs).
