Well, in all this madness one thing is clear: Lucas has succeeded in making Star Wars relevant again, even if for a short amount of time.
It makes me think that if he released the UOT there'd have a nub nub type celebration instead of widespread outrage, leaks, forum posts, and even news stories on the new changes.
There's no publicity like bad publicity. 99% of consumers will buy this set because of the title on the box without having read any reviews or heard any rumors/confirmations of changes. I've even read many posts of people saying they'll get the set anyways because it's SW on blu.
Darth Lucas wins again. Noo. Noooooo!
