Personally I don't think he stacked the deck against the O-OT, he merey made the 2004 SE better. Even if there had been an anamorphic release of the O-OT on DVD, it would still have all the film grain, the thick matte lines, the obvious matte paintings, and so on.
Still I'd love to see it, because that's what I grew up with. Back in the day, that was certainly good enough, and it's still good enough now.
I have to say I was pleasantly suprised to see that not everyone here hates Lucas, and even some of the people who run the site seem to be against such unconstructive hate.
