But i signed the petition and joyned this site because i have deep respect for preservation of films in their original
forms. I belive that once a film is made it is a part of history and if it ever gets changed,the changes should never
be a replacement for the original. I think Lucasfilm should keep the originals for the future, as an option, so people can
choose what to watch. If people change every historically important movie,then our society is threathened to loose all
records of the culture of our past decades and centuries.
I don't know if i ever mentioned this on the forum,but 20th century fox still has a LOT of original trilogy material from wich
video masters can me made in the future. Lucas owns the original negatives,but Fox has lots of interpositives, duplicate negatives and other materials,
and they are stored in geographically separated locations.
After they release this new DVD, after few years they could prossibly release the originals too because they have the rights,and it would bring them money.
