I think they'd provide a better box set than Lucasfilm ever could. I'd be concerned about the image quality though. Criterion is wildly inconsistent in that regard. The Rock is a reference transfer in every respect--no edge enhancement, no noticeable artifacts, nothing. Then you look at The Royal Tanenbaums, and you have to wonder what the hell they were thinking when they mastered it.
