There would be no money or profits in releasing the OT in 4k. It would take too long, and they don't have the budget to clear up the legal issues for it. Not to mention straightening out the political issues which are a bigger.

It's not going to happen. Not in any way that would satisfy the people here.

You need to speak for yourself. I think a lot of people would be satisfied with a Bladerunner-esque release of the unaltered versions that includes clean transfers OOT. Not everyone is going to deny a release of the films that isn't a perfect restoration. And unless you have some sort of insider information from one of the really high up officials in Lucasfilm then I doubt that you know any more about their budget, plans, or the legal situation than any of us do.
