The TFN community is kind of delusional I think. Not that I'm not also delusional, but I don't really understand how someone could honestly think that there's a reason to let the original versions of Star Wars rot away into nonexistence (which I know one specific TFNer has said before)
I believe some have said that if Disney acknowledges and releases the OOT, then it will "interfere" will the saga AKA George's vision. Even when the OOT is released on Blu-ray, I'm guessing the 2011 versions (or newer versions) will still remain as official.
Sure, but who really cares about what is "official"?
Well if you are solely interested in OT then official canon is of no concern. However if you are interested in sequels then that might present inconveniences. For example, if for some reason they wanted to have Anakin's ghost, they might bring Hayden back in order to follow the canon. I gave the worst case scenario but still. :)
My original point was releasing the OOT wouldn't interfere with anything because it's likely the 2011 are the versions that Disney will refer to. Disney needs to draw the line somewhere as to what is official and what isn't. And there are a lot of fans who do care what is official. Personally, I don't care what is official. I just want the OOT on Bluray.
However, you have a good point about Anakin's ghost. The same can be said for the ending of ROTJ, if the ST acknowledges it. In the OOT, they had a small celebration on Endor. In the SE, it was more widespread and made it seem as if the entire Empire was wiped out across the galaxy or, at least, at the various places we've seen throughout all the films. It seems the ST has to acknowledge the "fall" of the Empire in ROTJ in some fashion considering they're still around.
One night of rioting around the galaxy would not mean the end of the entire Empire.
Possibly not but but the death of the Emperor and Vader, the possible temporary overthrow of the Empire and a huge celebration are the last moments we were left with before the beginning of the ST.
