Thanks, Alexrd. I was considering leaving the forum alone but I think I'll stay now, in the hope that someone can be tolerated for having a different opinion here, and not be called a "troll" or a "dick" (amazing that such insults fly over the moderators' heads) just for going against the grain on some issues.

For the record (really, for the intellectually challenged - and they shout the loudest here so they know who they are), I think the original originals should be given a Blu-ray release. They should be packaged with every version of the films that come out, because I think it's startling to see how they started out and how many revisions have been made to them since their respective release dates. There's clearly enough people who want them, so why not?

And then we shall have peace.
