Maybe hate is too strong a word, and sure I -do- understand the frustration regarding the lack of anamorphic release for the O-OT.
But he did go out of his way to do the THX version with the warning that it would be the last time to get it. To me that doesn't sound like he's insulting the people who liked those versions just as they were.
And I just think it's a pretty narrow point of view to equate everything Lucas does with a desire for money.
I just think it's pretty extreme not to at the very least aknowledge that he did this september release for us, even if money is another concern.
Sure the guy didn't give it the 5 star treatment, but he did do it.
I just think that the next step in getting him to reconsider doing an anamorphic or even future HD or better releases is to give the man just a pittance of respect for changing his mind at all.
Thanks. My apologies too. I think that we both got carried away, and its nice to see that we have gotten to look at each other's side of the argument. My apologies. I think that we both have valid points.
That's reasonable.

Good point. And if Gomer is with us, we stand a better chance. You're a valuable member like everyone else here. I should have jumped on you like that. I apologize.
