Sorry guys, but I put my hands up at this point, and these sales figures show that we are not winning the battle. Lucas can do whatever he wants, and I can't come up with a reason in HIS mind that he should remaster the OOT.
Maybe we can't win the popularity contest. But we might be able to sway Lucas if we can create a critical consensus. If too many film critics start clamoring for the originals, it might get too loud to ignore.
I think it's already starting to happen. Just about every review I've read has said, "yeah, it's not the original versions, but it LOOKS GREAT!"
