The 2006 OOT was non-anamorphic half ass job. There has to be one definitive set before DVD gives out to HD-DVD. What will happen, I really don't know.
That is basically the way i was looking at it, and with the whole 30th anniversary thing going on its a natural--I mean Celebration IV is supposedly a Lucasfilm celebration bash of the 30th anniversary. To me it seems like a natural business formula, because if you released the OOT again in 2008 it wouldnt be as significant or sell as well.
I will, however, say that i totally understand where people like Cable are coming from--Lucasfilm is so schizephrenic sometimes that really, who the fuck knows what they will do.
