Interesting to see others views on this one.  Personally, I think there has been a kind of 'diluting' of the greatness that the Original Trilogy was once held in by the masses.  Between the Prequels, the cartoons, and the videogames, there seems to have been an 'over-saturation' of new Star Wars characters and events (not necessarily better) on show, since the terrific originals were held in such high regard.

As far as the original versions, since their poor 'creative choices' in their transfer to DVD (both SE and GOUT forms), I am only really excited about them again in Adywan's treatment (and future proposed treatment, which I have no doubts, will be excellent) of the Original Trilogy, and the Prequels. 

Unfortunately, I wish that his treatment of 'SW:Revisited' and what comes next, could be the versions that were 'out there' in the public domain for EVERYONE.  Too bad that only a small percentage of Star Wars fans will ever know about these, or see them.  Lucky us then!  :)

As far as any more future Star Wars-related product from George Lucas now, I am looking forward to see if he can improve on his OT a bit for it's Blu-ray unveiling, and I am certainly looking forward to seeing how his 'live-action' TV series works out.  What I am REALLY looking forward too also, on the 'official product' front though, will be the eventual 3D theatrical releases....  That should be worth a watch or two, I reckon.
