Well, having them (until I find another fan preservation or fanedit set) makes sense.

and i can't face any more changes, so will close my eyes to any future SE versions, the Original IS a 'Special Edition' to me!

This is not "Conan the Destroyer" we're talking about here, it's Star Wars.

Not that films don't get double dipped all the time, but there's bad anamorphic quality and then there's laserdisc quality. It took Universal a good eight years to release an anamorphic dvd of David Lynch's "Dune," but it did happen. Yesterday I was watching Criterion's double dip of Seven Samurai which I rented from Video Americain (it turned out they were having a "rent 3, rent 1 free" thing, so my friend payed for 2 of them). I remember renting the old dvd years ago and how grainy it looked. The newer dvd is quite impressive, smooth, crystal clear. And this was made from a dupe negative!!! It really gets me excited with what would be possible for the OOT on dvd, given the proper treatment.

Yes, but will Lucas allow it? That's the problem.

All it raises is questions, and at the end of the day all I have left is the idea that maybe the Marcia lawsuit story is true.
I finally saw the GOUT dvd of ROTJ earlier tonight at a friend's place. No, I still haven't seen the discs for Star Wars and Empire, but watching Jedi brought back some good memories. During Lapti Nek, this girl we were watching it with said that she loved the scene simply because it looked real and fake at the same time. No, I didn't bother to say a single thing on top of that. I just smiled a geniune smile.
