They might if they don't see the changes as the destruction of the story like some believe they are. Changes or no changes, the stories haven't changed. It's not like Lucas went back to the Original Trilogy and literally disassembled each film and re-edited the films to be something totally different. He's nowhere near that point. A subtle story point here and there, maybe but it's not like Ridley Scott's Kingdom of Heaven or what Oliver Stone had done with Alexander....
And what I find the most funny about this "rumor" is the fact that many fans said they were done with Lucas after the last release of the films and weren't going to spend any more cash and TIME on Star Wars and yet, this "rumor" comes out and everyone is upset. Either you stick to your guns and be done with Lucas and Star Wars or you're not.
People talk about Lucas changing his mind on a whim but fans are even worse at it when it comes to this franchise.
Not really. I just want the OOT, that's all. My mind hasn't changed. And what CO is saying is that even if they don't mind the changes, it's not likely that they'll buy another set for MORE of them. It's odds on that if they bought the 04 set, they don't care, and won't buy the new set solely for a few changes.
But, Lucas didn't deployed Stormtroopers across the country, making the fanbase buy these DVD releases either. That's purely choice. You knew exactly what was in the set from day one....
And I didn't buy it. The key difference here is that we don't have a choice between them. REMASTERED OOT= everybody's happy.
