let’s get a bunch of rude signs, boycott all new movies, and stand outside theaters picketing the new releases. Then wait for some reporter to go looking for a story. quiet petitions and whining online are a waste of time.
oh and I forgot, we need to get some annoying political style bumper stickers.
There was a very short-lived "SaveStarWars.com" sticker campaign that went around her for awhile.
Turns out we should have been trying to save savestarwars.com because that site is dead as hell now.

Whatever happened to him/the site? I started posting after his seemingly permanent hiatus. I also never really had the opportunity to examine the entire website.

Maybe we should rent a huge billbord in Hollywood and harass authors of Star Wars books?

Thank you. What happened to it though?

Can someone quickly direct me to the part where the idea that they’re waiting until next year’s 40th anniversary is closer to make a statement was debunked? Until then, “It’s been four years” carries no weight at all for me.
A) But I don’t want to wait that long!!
B) Yeah, it’s nice to think that they are, but there really isn’t much evidence.
C) Well, one would think that if they were going to, they’d at least have said something.
This is a very bold claim.
To state our allegations, may I present Frank your Majesty, who speaks on our behalf.

Wait!
HOW COULD YOU EVEN SAY THAT?!?!
New contender.
This thread is a hoot.
As for the topic: For what it’s worth, Density is correct. Why drop the restoration now? Before now they were hyping up TFA, intentionally starving us so that we would be ravenous when the film came out. Now we’re in the afterglow of TFA, which was a huge success financially. We’re all recovering, and with Rogue One on the horizon that has to be good enough to show that they can do a good Star Wars movie without the main cast, and Episode VIII is even further away. There’s no anniversary event soon, or any sort of big announcement about the franchise coming up, so why drop them now? Why not wait until 40 years of Star Wars? Or after Episode IX? Why say “Yeah we’re working on it for some day” and get people hyped up now when it’s still years away, only so the hype can die off? It doesn’t make marketing sense.
If they’re going to do it, they’re going to do it when it will make them the most money. They have teams of people dedicated to figuring out when that is. This is something you drop as a bombshell at the close of your press conference, not something you tell some “opinion blogger” at the Washington Post website in the middle of the Star Wars refractory period.
It’s fun to think about, but getting no information about it is almost worse.
The weight of the the available evidence suggests that his thesis is sound.
What evidence?
I think that’s his point. We really don’t know anything for sure until an official statement is made. So far, we have nothing but 4 years of silence.
Which could be an even worse answer in and of itself.
I said it before I’ll say it again. Unless someone official with Lucasfilm and/or Disney (no not ‘someone familiar on the subject’) confirms or disconfirms the release of the OUT, only then will I ‘let it go’.

Don’t know if I said it before, but “we currently have no plans …” is a total non-answer. Until they clearly say: “We won’t release the OUT for these reasons …” I won’t give up hope and until they clearly say: “We will release the OUT” I won’t get excited every time the Star Wars facebook page changes its profile pic to an OT scene.

Frankly, your majesty, Frank Your Majesty is right.
