Some of the same people who have made fan-edits or helped fund or support them have done the same with preservations.

Adywan has made several preservation projects.

The two go hand in hand.

Wanting the original versions does not contradict making better (or if you prefer different) versions of the SE.

They are two different but not exclusive aims.

Already Ady has made a very good reconstruction of the theatrical version of ESB, the picture is clearer the sound mix is spot on the odious blue tint is gone.

He has made a similar preservation of the official SEs and he does these Revisited fan edits too.

He hasn't made one screwed up re-edit and begrudgingly tossed in an half arsed version of the original which he would prefer we'd all forget about.

He plans to do the PT too and had already made a preservation of the theatrical cut and official version of TPM (with the strange pink tint removed).

The theatrical cut of TPM was never released on DVD.

I for one wouldn't mind a infinite number of versions of these films if I could see the original versions, properly restored and available to be seen at home and in cinemas when requested.
