Hmm, I see what you mean Baronlando. Perhaps Synapse may have been involved in some way or taken over the task of remastering the Original Trilogy from Reliance Media, who knows? And here i'd gotten my hopes up again haha
I agree with SilverWook, I think we'll be finding out one way or another in April or maybe even on the 4th of May. Not too long to wait now. I think it'd be a nobrainer for Disney to release the 4k remastered Original Trilogy just before the release of Episode VII, when the hype for everything Star Wars is really starting to kick in, they'll make loads of money, bring Star Wars to the forefront and win back many of the older fans all in one go.
The CEO of Disney in that interview certainly seemed to think it was a good idea so here's hoping :)
I have learned not to get my hopes up. The GOUT sufficiently taught me that. That particular link sounds like it's mostly about their horror projects. Don't get me wrong, Suspria in 2K sounds pretty, but what does it have to do with the OOT?

Synapse is a distribution label, not a post-production house like Reliance. He was probably only mentioning them in regards to that one title. The "super secret project" is most likely one of Synapse's titles and not anything having to do with Star Wars.
Even if there's no grand announcement by April, they're gonna have to say something at the convention. These OOT blu-ray rumors have become one gigantic elephant in the room.
I think that if they're planning something, and I'm still too pessimistic to believe it, that Disney are deliberately being very judicious about what they announce until they're 100% sure about it so as to avoid fanning a flame which already out of control. Which certainly is smart. Between Frozen, Episodes VII, and Age of Ultron, Disney are cooking with gas.

Is it possible that the super secret title that they haven't announced yet refered to in this post is actually the 4k remasters of the Star Wars Original Trilogy? Reliance Mediaworks are the guys that are meant to have created 4K remasters of the original trilogy so it could very well be what they are refering to.
Which begs the question of course of what they are waiting for to announce it, perhaps until the release date of Episode VII is closer so they can generate maximum buzz for that film?
If that was the case it would be truly fantastic news! :)
Even if they are, there are still a plethora of questions-sound mixes, mattes, color timing, and so on-to consider, so they probably want to keep quiet if they're doing it to make sure that that kind of stuff isn't going to be scrutinized before anything is even official. We've passed Christmas, so so much for the theory that they're coming out to coincide with that.

Star Wars Celebration, coming up in April, would be a good time to announce something...
Last time the announcement was "the black bars aren't the issue fans think they are."
