On a personal note, I had intended to try a preservation and 16x9 upscale of the '97 NTSC US Laserdiscs...but there's some weirdness with the framerate.  While the bulk of the movies are in NTSC Film (23.976 fps), the closing credits are NTSC Video (29.97 fps).  So, making solid progressive-film presentation where the credits don't look like junk is a bit of a puzzle I've yet to solve.

Still, it's something I'd like to try when I've finished some of my other projects.  "Rebellion 2: Lightsaber Boogaloo"?

Hmm... That sounds like an epic project OmegaMattman. A preservation of the 1997 Laserdiscs is long overdue. Would you try to upscale it to HD or just have a plain anamorphic widescreen DVD? In any case, I'd be happy to see the thing in NTSC and true 5.1 surround sound.
