Do you REALLY think there will be remastered versions of the OOT or whatever? I don't.

But, anyway, for a quick rundown, the problem stems from the films being shot in an open matte ratio. That means that the actual exposure of film was a standard 1.35:1 ratio (like with standard TVs) but it was cropped to 1.85:1 for the theatrical release. The DVDs cropped the widescreen version incorrectly for the sequels, different from the theatrical versions, and occasionally important information was lost.
