If they put it in a giant-ass boxed set which forces me to get the SEs and the PT, and I read that this forum that it is as it should be, I will pay almost any price for it. I won't like it, but this this is something I want badly enough to make the sacrifice.

See, I'm the guy who would gladly buy a set like that if it also included the theatrical prequels and the '97 version of the SE. But yeah, hand over fist if it was just the umpteenth revision of the movies that also included a nicely restored OOT.

As for what they could easily screw up, well, I could see them applying too much DNR if they go the route of using IP's and seps. Really that's just a concern that comes from being dissapointed so many times by catalog titles I was looking forward to on blu-ray. If the unaltereds actually get restored, I'm sure they would keep grain management to a minimum and not go beyond removing dirt and dust.

What will be much easier to screw up is stuff like including all the soundmixes and making sure the film edit conforms to a single version of the unaltered original that was actually shown in theaters.
