I do remember, or perhaps misremember, that when the theatrical version of E.T. was announced to be the one on the Blu-Ray disc, Spielbergentioked how he felt he was done with altering his own films and would look to the future instead of the past. I think he said that he felt that he saw his priorities in this situation as being different from those of Lucas.

This is true. I can't recall it exactly, but you would find it here somewhere on the site. The quote appeared in some film site sites and media too.

Not quite harsh enough, but you can see Steven doesn't agree. Hell, Indi 4 would've been even more whacked out if George was the sole owner of that property.
