First we got Close Encounters and Blade Runner, with the original versions included. Now we're getting the original versions of all the Star Trek films. Call me naive, but I'm getting more and more hopeful that GL won't get away with simply pressing out an SE-only Star Wars BD set.

The only ones that can stop him are us and the retailers.  If we don't buy it, they won't stock it.  Remember what happened with all the Jar Jar Binks figures?  That's right, they either ended up on the clearance aisle or in the trash.  If we want a proper release, then we must stop buying each new release.

GL will continue to get away with releasing the ever changing SEs until people simply stop buying the merchandise.  Toys, movies, DVDs, etc, etc, etc.  Until then, he'll just continue to subsidize the release of whatever the latest crap is with whatever else people are buying (books, comics, games, etc).  Unfortunately, so many are still convinced that Lucas can do no wrong that it doesn't matter what he releases, it's viewed as the one true vision each time.
