The only reason the OOT was on DVD in 2006 was because it was already done.


That's exactly my point. What if he's just waiting until the blu-ray to put any sort of work whatsoever into remastering the OOT? Isn't that what Cameron's doing with The Abyss?

Lucas, at least so far as he's concerned, put all of the necessary work into restoring the OT back in '03/'04. True, it wouldn't necessarily take that kind of restoration all over again in order to achieve an acceptable level of quality for a 1080p master of the O-OT, but what you said is exactly my point, zombie. It was already done, so he just got THX to do whatever it needed and then slapped it on a dvd.

This will also save face for George, and he can claim that people are still gobbling up the SE.


Exactly

Isn't it in his best interest to have both?

Lucas isn't making money for other companies, he's making money for his own company.
