captainsolo, that's exactly why I would hope that by the time LFL gets around to the 3D theatrical re-release in 2015 that they actually bother to do a new 4K scan. This will be an ancient, 11-year-old 1080p master (hell, it's ancient today in 2011!) and by then it will have been about time for them to do a new scan anyway. Even with movies that were only shot in 1080p, I'm pretty sure the effects and everything are rendered in 2K (so the live-action stuff is upscaled slightly, I'm pretty sure Clones and Sith were done this way, the scope version of Avatar also). Not that I could care any less, I'm not giving Lucas my money until he gives us the originals. I wouldn't pay to see the movies in post-converted 3D even if they were from the original versions!!!
