A little selfish but I hope it doesn't go "Viral" before the 32mm scans are out. We wanna avoid "Imperial" entanglements.

I'm hoping for 35mm scans myself. Those extra 3mm are on the edge of the frame, but they're still part of the movie! ;)

But srsly, there are prints of the original theatrical films in good hands: members of this forum, private collectors, universities... they will be preserved.

I bear no ill will toward Lucas himself, however misguided his actions toward these movies are. But once he is no longer actively involved in the fate of these films (which will likely be many years in the future, but will happen eventually), I have no doubt that the originals will come back to the forefront and get a proper legitimate release. It's up to us to keep the flame alive until then.
