Thanks for posting that news for Adywan.  I was stung in the heart when I read his post about the C&D possibility as looking forward to his completed ESB:R edit keeps me optimistic and enthused about having at least two of my absolute favorite films of all time - get the TRULY 'Special Edition' Lucas took a pass on.

 

Here is the good news as far as the original Saga goes and the threats that might come from the Mouse:

Ready for the first wrinkle in the Disney-Lucasfilm deal?

While Disney will own and release future films in the "Star Wars" series, the deal does NOT include the distribution rights to the pre-existing "Star Wars" films.

Those rights remain with 20th Century Fox. In fact, Fox owns distribution rights to the original 1977 "Star Wars" film in perpetuity in all media worldwide.

It also has theatrical, nontheatrical and home video rights worldwide to the other five films in the series through May 2020.

So here's to optimism that we will have a 2013 to look forward to in finally getting ESB:R completed and in our library next to the original.
