Ok, I'll admit that I'd be pretty surprised if Vader's "NOOOO" or R2's extra rocks make it into the next "Special Edition" release, or even Han shooting second (and maaaybe Jedi Rocks if we're lucky) especially since Vader's "NO" and Hayden Christiansen would have to be re-added if they're 4K restoring the 97 negative.

What happened to the "they will NEVER release 1997"? :)

If you read darklordoftech arguments about 4k from the beginning you wouldn't need to make 3 posts about how certain you are that 1997 will never be release again.

What? I haven't changed my mind. If anything I just said they'll revert back to '04 content-wise because I don't think they'll add the extra rocks in front of R2 because those are completely minute and non-sensical. I think they'll keep the """official""" versions of the films as close to the 2011's as possible since that is the director's true vision, just maybe without some of the really weird stuff like Vader screaming "NOOO" or the extra rocks. I also stand by my previous statement that Disney will not want Star Wars to be cluttered with 4 different versions because that'll confuse customers, they're probably going to keep releasing the current SE's as the director's "Final Cuts" with the originals along side them as well. Having the director's cut and the originals is one thing, but it becomes cluttered when you have three different but nearly identical Special Editions. And no, saying the 97 and 11 SE's are identical is not the same as comparing the SE to the original; they're the same, just with updated Jabba and new prequel references (and without the scream in Empire).
