Do you really think Lucas is even aware that Blade Runner and Close Encounters are being released in their original versions? I would doubt that even Spielberg is. Furthermore, I doubt Lucas would even care had anyone bothered to tell him. To him its a non-issue: "oh yeah, Close Encounters in its original version, thats nice. When's lunch?" I'm sure the people that run the home video department of Lucasfilm are very much aware of everything thats going on and would love to have another release to sell to us but I just don't think its something that Lucas has really even considered. His ego is just too big. Thats why he wore a Han shot first T-shirt--he thinks he's being funny. So far removed from the reality of the travesty he has undertaken he actually thinks that being ironic about it is funny. I think that shows just where his head is--somewhere lost in space.
