Fixed: The deleted scenes will be all over the tubes a month before the discs come out anyway.

That's the usual time period for pirates to get their hands on new dvd releases and rip them. They're apparently fair game once the discs are at the manufacturing stage.

I will say that deleted scene was pretty cool. Reading about it over the years was it expected that the scene was this complete? I'm surprised.

But I won't be buying the blu-ray set for some deleted scenes (hey why weren't they on the 2004 box set?) and as for the rest of Lucas' comments - fuck you.

It's a waste of our time even commenting on what lies leave this mans mouth.

There's a private collector that owns a SW print that's in pretty good shape. Lucas' prints (maybe not the o-neg) have to be in at least equal condition. Use them for a restoration you tight bastard.

edit: whoops, after re-reading my post I didn't want to imply that I'll be downloading the pirated discs just that I'll watch the deleted scenes on youtubes when they're inevitably uploaded, prior to the release date I'm sure.
