Possible original Star Wars screening?

Why bother? Lucas will be in attendance, so they're obviously going to show the SE. Even if they weren't and Lucas wasn't in attendance, LFL would've for sure caught on to it and made sure they only show the SE. As it is, it's an official event, so you can bet they're only going to show the SE.

With Lucas there? That would be awesome.

Lets face it. The SE will be the only version shown to the public from now on, even if we do get the OOT saved

It would be nice for Gary Kurtz who's gonna endure another screening of the SE.

George Lucas is getting soft(er) in his old age. I'm telling you, this screening will definately be the SE, but I think we'll have a chance to see the original again somewhere, someday.

It's not optimism...just a hunch.

This is true guys, we have to face it, the OOT will only ever appear on a DVD or HD-DVD edition to please this fanbase and thats it. When it is shown to the public via the theaters, private screening, or cable, it will be the SE. I don't like it, and a matter of fact I truly hate that this has happened to the OT, but as Luke said to Kenobi in SW, "There is nothing I can do about it."

Looks like they are selling a lot of tickets! Too bad it looks like it's going to be the SE based on the running time given.

But remember Luke did do something about it, the force made sure of that. There may yet be hope.

P.S. Sorry to go off-topic, but I am a Jedi Knight now!

Good job, Marv! Maybe we could get you to fix your sig as well?

That's your uncle talking.

It was worth repeating.

<span class=“Italics”>MeBeJedi: You aren’t one of us.

Perhaps the time has come for a private rebel screening somewhere. But how to make it happen?

Lets screen it in the middle of nowhere, like those burning man concerts

Someone break into the projection room at Celebration IV and swap out the SE print for the GOUT.

Someone who has a home theater system (some rich guy who literally has a theater in his house) invites us and we watch the GOUT or something.

That would be fantastic! I wish I could be there to 'BOO' every SE change/addition!

Well, hmm... I'd rather stay than get kicked out, Greedo shoots first or not guys.
But if all of you were there, I'd do it.

I know this is a bump, let alone a double-post, but the suspense is KILLING ME!
OK, so I went the first day season passes were supposedly available; sold out, simply due to star wars. I'm gonna swing by early tomorrow and find out what the line is for people waiting for others to NOT show up - over 20 my mom says I can't go, but under... I"ll get to take the chance!
I'll let you guys know either way, I hope you don't mind. I'm happy that I may be the only kid my age who may have the slightest chance of seeing the OOT, let alone in theaters!

Well, called ahead few minutes ago and found out that 40 people without passes were already outside; so, I guess I won't go.
Stupid stupid... *rants*
