I wasn't even born until 1985 so I'm one step ahead of you there, sj. It's for that reason above all that I want a high definition transfer of the OOT. At least a whole lot of you older folks actually got to see it in the highest quality possible.

As for the unending rumors that Lucas destroyed every original print he could get his hands on, do we even know if this is true? The form response letter to all of our GOUT complaints back in May of '06 said "existing prints are in bad condition." So while they probably did try to get their hands on every O-OT print, would they really have a good reason to destroy them?
