OOT is what will be released if there's a release.

There's a small chance that the 97 version could get a release too. I hate that version, but I cannot deny that it is a (shitty) piece of film history. It should get a release.

There's probably a zero percent chance the 2004 edition gets a Blu-ray release. And there's no point in putting out the 2011 version again.

I wouldn't bet on a new version of the SE. There are so many reasons why not. Let's first of all remember that none of the directors of the OT are in the picture any more, and usually when there's a new cut of a movie for home video they're involved. So who would be making the changes? What would be their goal? Would they get rid of some earlier changes? Let's not forget now that the people in charge now probably don't care at all for the SE. And Disney/LFL is on this OT train, and they must know that real lovers of the OT prefer the OOT and hate the SE with a passion. So they'd probably think (incorrectly) that OTers would not care for and possibly complain about a new SE.
