But seriously, does anyone feel concerned that GL has the power now to tell the federal government (LOC) to suppress the originals and preserve only the SE? We didn't know that when the Blu-rays were out. What if he decides to tell the BFI they can't preserve the originals either? What If GL even lobbies congress to make a law forcing private collectors to fork up their own prints of the originals? It may be crazy, but that could be reality five years from now. LFL is a corporation, and hence has a lot of money to create laws that work for their advantage.

Yes, of course, but I don't feel the need to post it over and over. You're preaching to the choir - it's not news here. And there are a lot of things to be happy about too, and truly new stuff going on here - there are some wonderful preservations that have been and are being developed here, have you watched any of them? Better yet, have you helped out on any of them? There are a lot of people providing thoughtful input into the Harmy thread, why not lend your eyes?

What would Yoda do?
