It's enough to make you break down in tears. When did Lucas completely lose his mind? Maybe it happened slowly after he divorced his wife. He said something like, "The other version is on VHS and laserdisc, if anybody wants it." Is he nuts? Has he ever gone to this site? VHS and laserdisc are really crummy representations of cinema changing movies. I just can't believe it.

On a happier note, if someone were to purchase 16mm prints of the original trilogy, actually take it to a film lab and digitally restore it, and then release it to us in anamorphic widescreen on a DVD, that would be the neatest thing.

One of us ought to do that.
