It might be more productive if someone designed a token, like a bank note or bond which said something to effect that the sender of the token promised to purchase a blu-ray set when (and only when) it included a restored HD version of the OT.

If instead of buying the current sets on the release date token holders posted their promissory to Uncle George he might get an idea of the real greenbacks he is missing out on.

It would need a catchy name and design which people could download and print off.

A Twitter/Facespace campaign could keep tabs on people who sent their bond to Lucas.

There have been some notable people backing some of the activities on here and getting them to endorse the scheme would serve as publicity for positive activism rather than vandalism.

That's more what I was thinking too. Something along the lines of education instead of something that may be a nuisance, ineffective, or illegal.

We (OT.com & savestarwars.com) still have some credibility in the film buff community. I'd hate to see us lose that. For Christ's sake, The Humdinger went legit**

We may be too hyper-focused sometimes to see it, but respected critics and film bloggers know who we are now. They understand what is happening and they're starting to write about it. They're starting to discuss it and address it intelligently.

** Truth be told, I was sorry the issue was addressed and fixed, possibly because of this very site. I'd rather Star Wars 5.0.2 have the same flaws it had before. I'd rather casual fans and consumers finally realize that with Lucas it's all selfishness and marketing - not preservation or respect for the films or the people who got him where he is.
