I've been saying that for years. ^_^

George, fire your yesmen, remember what happened to Mr. Burns's investments in one episode of the Simpsons.

You know, when consumers are unhappy with a companies choices, the strongest way to make their unhappiness known is to vote with their dollars. Petitions are great but if you have already gone out and pre-ordered the special edition DVD set, you are not doing anything to encourage Lucasfilm or Fox to release the original versions that we all obviously want to see. Don't buy the DVD's until they have the original releases on them. Write to Fox and Lucasfilm and let them know that you are not going to buy Star Wars DVD's until the original, award winning, box office record setting versions are released. Unless you withhold your money from them, all the petition signing and letter writing we do will not get their attention. We are the Star Wars customer base and have some commercial power to wield if we show some solidarity. I have e-mailed this suggestion to every Star Wars geek I know and suggest you do the same to reach those that haven't found this site.

I know you want all that extra geek stuff on the other discs, but you can get them from netflix to hold you over until the originals are released.

I look forward to seeing you all in line the day the original DVD set is released.

I agree hit 'im where it hurts - his wallet. As I have said before Lucas won't get one red cent from me. until the O OT is released. Even if the boycott won't work, I'm not going to give Lucas any of my money for a product I despise. I won't give him the satisfaction of forcing his will apon us.

Why is George Lucas ignoring a large amount of fans by not putting out the original theatrical versions of the original Star Wars trilogy?


I pasted your suggested question and obviously made a few alterations to it. I sent this question to "Rick McCallum", "Steve Sansweet" and "Other." If you want to, make like a typical housewife and nag them to death with this question every day until at least one of them answers. Let's hassle them until at least one of them breaks down and answers the question. I know I'm going to! If I get banned from the site, then so be it. I very seldom check the forums on the official site, let alone post on them. So, who's with me?

i think they're just going to give you the old...

"those were not Lucas' true versions of the film... the new versions are the way he always wanted them to look"

I know! But the way I see it, that's a good way to express my opinion directly to the company and making sure they acknowledge it. And, it doesn't cost me a fortune in stamps.
