I continue to maintain that a restoration of the original version of SW is not impossible, despite any of GL's many excuses.

As someone else pointed out, if there are no usable materials for the original, how do you explain Empire of Dreams? And some of the FX shots that were replaced were still in usable condition, because the original SE trailer shows the original version of Wedge blowing up the TIE Fighter.

And I'm also sick of this whole verbal sleight of hand of citing various issues with the elements of the *first film* to say that it's impossible to restore *any* of the OOT. I am certain that ESB and ROTJ do not suffer from the same problems, or at least not to the same degree as the original.
