Don't give Lucas any more ideas it, he has already ruined much of what made the originals great.
Suppressing the originals is the worst suppression of film art and destruction of our cultural history. Even worse when you consider the director and writer is in on it, usually filmmakers don't suppress their films. Especially if they are the biggest commercial grossers in history modern before the Present day.
Especially if it is the work you did that is beloved by the masses, why would you suppress that, but not suppress the other works which are hated, like Howard the Duck or the Star Wars Prequels, or Indiana Jones IV.
