I say he has destroyed star wars.
The oot is all i want. I will be stuck with a bad 1993 laserdisc port for my favorite film series. Even more insane he spent 30 million to covert episode1 for jar jar in 3-D, but he cannot afford to restore the real films that made star wars a classic of modern sci fi.
Converting episode one cost 5-10 million more than what fox spent to restore the entire trilogy from the negatives for the 1997 special edition.
Suppose a modern state of the art restoration costs a hundred million, even he could afford that being a billionaire. I don't think it would cost 50, or sixty million. For what it will cost to convert the special edition trilogy to 3-D 90 million, i think george could more than well afford it.
He can afford it, but doesn't want to because he is still the one who decides what to do with his money. He has other plans, and some people actually like TPM and Jar Jar, be it 2D or 3D. Deal with it.
