Yeah, where are all those threads around the internet who asks, "Do you think Warner Bros will release the unaltered version of THX 1138 on DVD and/or blu-ray?" :)

Yes, his THX is of course nowhere near as important and loved as Star Wars but when scenes cut from the SW-movies are now available in higher resolution than what the films themselves ever has been despite their rough shape, you would think people would get the point. There are cheap pornos out there treated better than Star Wars and Lucas himself is the sole reason behind that.

Do we really think, even for a moment, that she actually wanted to type those words as part of the form reponse letter?

Of course we don't, the level of absurd reached its zenith. Just to give such a response to its fanbase (FUCK YOU) is worthy of preservation on its own. :)

While we're once again on the subject of THX-1138, I continue to wonder if there is anything legally barring WB from releasing the original version, ditto Universal with American Graffiti.

I have no idea, I may be completely wrong about this but I think THX is nowadays fully owned by American Zoetrope, and that distribution rights are still with Warner. And no idea about Graffiti.

It's just sad that he won't let his films be available like all other directors. We know that he doesn't like them, but no one will force him to buy them, right?
