CatBus said: they ALREADY have "Star Wars" HD masters, no new scans needed. They can milk that 2011 release via streaming/broadcast licensing indefinitely at no additional cost (I think they recognize that further physical media releases are not really going to go very far, but they probably attribute that to "our brave new streaming world" and not "our version of Star Wars blows"). To them, these 2011 films are Star Wars. Why re-scan what you already have?

Are you aware that they already rescanned in 4K?

AFAICT that was already in the pipe before Disney came along. Disney has done nothing, and could very well do nothing with that scan too. But you're right--they could pay to keep that project going since it's partly done, and then they'd have a 4K SE master for relatively cheap, which I don't think is very helpful in the whole OOT release department, but maybe it's give us some better raw materials for restorations. Small favors I suppose.
