So? Citizen Kane was released in 1941 and it's still considered a great masterpiece. And by today's standards, the film is very slow but it would just be plain wrong to replace it with a different cut with faster pacing.

Plus, to me, the historical value of Star Wars and its original visual effects are good 50% of the entertainment factor of it. The story and characters are great but I think in reality, they are only a small part of what makes Star Wars a cinematic masterpiece.

I actually started working on the DeEd specifically to be able to show people who've never seen the movie, the original version, so as not to taint their 1st experience with an altered version or a low quality transfer - I actually remember a generic discussion about the morality of fanedits somewhere and I said, that I think making a making a fanedit is perfectly OK, as long as it's not being passed for the original and as long as the person watching has already seen the original - this, being a generic discussion, was of course taking into account, that a fan-edit can make the movie significantly worse, which I don't think Revisited has done by any means but there are some things in it, which I personally disagree with. And there can be some things in the original cut that you or I may personally not like but unlike any other version, it's still the original cut, which won all the Oscars and made the movie into a world-wide phenomenon.

I'm not saying the OUT is bad for fucks sake. Fuck, ANH and ESB are both on my top 5 favorite films of all time. The visuals are kind of dated, that is undeniable and in MOST ways ANH:R and ESB:R are superior and based on empiricism and should be considered the definitive versions. Do I still want the OUT on Blu-Ray? YES. Do the fans deserve the OUT on Blu-Ray? FUCK YES. My point was that we shouldn't be pissing our pants over a rumor when we have better versions. There is nothing else to discuss.
