I doubt it will be that expensive. It will probably be under $100, probably in the $89 range. They have to make it buyable for kids and parents, one of their main markets. No Blu Ray set is over $100 except the Complete Series mega-sets with 30-disks of content. For $89, people would pay for the OT SE in Blu Ray, plus deleted scenes, new documentaries, everything from the previous set, and the PT included with new PT bonus features. They don't need the OOT. People will be ticked off, they might even actively complain, but they will still buy the thing.

It might not even be a matter of choice. Maybe the LFL people won't be able to topple the immoveable wall of Lucas, and will be forced to exclude it. We'll have to see.

We should really start a letter writing campaign. The set is in the early stages of being developed if its release date of 4th quarter 2011 is correct. They could ready a remastered OOT as late as spring 2011. If we don't act now, the window might pass.
