Look at the efforts taken to restore the original cut of Metropolis. Star Wars, ESB, and ROTJ will get this level of respect and care one day. I just hope I'm around to see it.

That sounds about right to me...after George is dead. This actually has a parallel to the 2001 anime movie "Metropolis", as Tezuka said that he didn't want any animated/filmed version of his Metropolis books made. Ever. But they did it after he died anyway. That's probably what will happen with the OT, proper restoration-wise.
