I think George is self-isolating. He's fairly ordinary-looking and I think he could put on a hat and walk around Frisco and few people would notice him much less recognize him. I used to live and work in NYC and I saw famous people all the time (much more recognizable than GL), doing ordinary things, and I never saw anyone speak to them, much less mob them. Maybe Frisco is different than NY (New Yorkers pride themselves on acting unimpressed by anything or anyone-LOL), but he's definitely not The Beatles circa 1964.
He's not even Lindsay Lohan, for that matter. :-P
On a side note, I know of someone who has all 3 SW films on 35mm (he collects 35mm films). He works at a company that does film transfers.
I don't know if they're the OOT versions or not (I only spoke with his boss and a couple of his co-workers), but I asked if he'd ever consider making transfers of the films, and his boss said that he's afraid of going to jail (LOL) and that since the guy is such a 35mm enthusiast, he'd probably see no point in doing it even if it were legal.
Just for curiosity's sake, the next time I go back there, I'll ask the guy himself (if he's there) if they're the OOT or SE versions. In any case, the place where he works has a telecine, but so far no 4k or even 2k scanner.
Oh, and thanks for putting links up to these articles. I'd have nothing to post on the blu-ray boycott Facebook page, otherwise. ;-)
