Assuming the 4K project is only for the SE, I still think that for the inevitable OT re-release before Ep. VII, they'll include the OUT as an incentive to re-buy the trilogy, maybe with some Ep. VII teasers like that 2008 Indy Trilogy had for Crystal Skull. What if we get a 2K scan of a good condition IP, or multiple IP's if necessary as Harmy suggested, and they clean it up where necessary and color correct it appropriately in order to give it consistent colors throughout that match up with what the original colors looked like, also hopefully including both mono and 70mm stereo mixes (I'd love for New Hope to be branched, but I'm not holding my breath)? It's essentially a cheap alternative to the 4K restorations and a way for Disney to release the OUT respectably. Would this be acceptable? It's essentially what the GOUT should've been, and even if it is a disappointing release it'd make for an excellent source when creating the Despecialized Edition since entire shots would fit alongside the SE blu ray (which I'm assuming will be released in 4K soon) much better than GOUT.
