I thought nothing matters any more?

They should have left the originals alone in the first place! I haven’t seen the OT in six years because the originals are no longer accessible.

The OOT is available pretty cheap on amazon. They were out for a long time so they aren’t even that rare.

But that’s just VHS/laserdisc releases and the GOUT, which I already have.

I think the worst part about the GOUT (2006) is that they were packaged as disc 2 and labeled “bonus disc.”

It was below-par for the DVD format unless the year was 1998-1999.

Someone should start a project to take the Blu-ray and, like, “unspecialize” the footage, using the GOUT and maybe even film scans. It would take a lot of work, first finding someone stupid enough to go through and screencapture every single visual change, then someone else to preserve all the different sound mixes, then find a crazy person who would actually attempt to edit and release them in HD both compressed and uncompressed, preferably multiple times in different stages so we all can contribute suggestions and recommendations.

Isn’t that Harmy’s despecialized edition you’re describing?

I think it’s Harmony’s Unspecialized Version. I read about it on theforce.net.

Maybe it was Harmful’s Ordinary Rendering.

Are you gonna make a thread for the 41st anniversary too?

Don’t give him any ideas!

I’ve got dibs on the 50th Anniversary thread, but I promise to phrase the thread title as a question (“Will we finally see an OOT release in 2027?”) so that people can simply apply Betteridge’s Law of Headlines (“No.”) and move on.

I’m leaving the 60th Anniversary thread for someone else though. Diamond Anniversary thread, big demand, reserve it while you still can. Platinum’s also available as far as I can tell. I’m afraid there will be new threads for this topic going for as long as people keep deluding themselves into thinking it’s a possibility.

I’ll take the 42nd Anniversary Thread for two reasons.

Someone start a thread to guess what those two reasons are.

Done.

I’m taking the 44th.

I’m hoping if you take back this request, you can make the resulting thread unhappen.

These things only go in one direction.

Reason #42 you’ll never be a moderator.

Number 1 is that I’d never accept such an offer.

I should have said “Reason #42 you’ll never be offered the position of moderator.”

There ya go.
