When it comes to films not getting a proper restoration, I'd say screw the laws. At least Raiders did get a very worthy restoration. After seeing it myself I gotta say it was way better than what I had expected. (And for some reason I can't find a single image comparison of this snake reflection everybody keeps talking about. Can't be something big?)

But when it comes to Star Wars, I'm glad there are so many of us fans who care so much about the films. If I was rich I'd gladly buy every single film print that shows up, just to contribute to the preservation/restoration work.
