There is no such thing as an anamorphic blu-ray and there would be really no point to do a whole new transfer and restoration and then just release it on DVD. I'm hoping for something akin to the Blade Runner and Close Encounter's releases, with all 3 cuts (plus the final cut or whatever) via seamless branching.
Wait, why is there no such thing as anamorphic blu-ray? What happens then with 4:3 standard video on blu-ray. Ever since hearing about the 25/50 gb capacity back in early '06, I have dreamed of having that much space to work with for dubs of my standard definition 4:3 Hi8 and vhs tapes. They could be probably made with no digital compression whatsoever, right?
About the petition. I'm guessing a lot of thought went into making it clear and straighforward without becoming wordy and long. Thanks for making a new one. Was it ever considered to include more requests such as the inclusion of the 1997 special editions and the different audio mixes, the old specials like Star Wars to Jedi? Not to mention having the films with the proper coloring. Or would that have made the petition too long and detract from the big goal of having the originals in a 16x9 widescreen presentation?
