Weird, and just this morning I was thinking up yet another possibility for a Star Wars release that would satisfy everyone....

in case anyone was wondering, it was this:
for each movie of the OOT it would go-
-one disc mastered from the 35mm interpositive of the original release with all of the soundtrack options. I guess they could also master the 70mm version and put it on a separate disc, but I get the impression that going to see a 35 movie in 70 was kind of a novelty back in the day, sort of like seeing an IMAX print in this day and age.
-one disc mastered from the 35mm interpositive of the '97 SE release.
-one disc mastered from the Lowry-restored version, which I'm assuming is what they're using to make the 3D release. If they really wanted to go all out, they could seamlessly branch the 2004 version in there as well.

In regards to Ward leaving Lucasarts, I wonder what the "personal reasons" were. It would also seem that we need to wait and see if he is leaving Lucasfilm altogether or just leaving Lucasarts. I wonder how this is going to affect The Force Unleashed, if at all.
