As in use DVD footage, pluggin in Laserdisc footage where necessary.
Now this leaves us with an exciting oppurtunity to not only preserve the Original Versions, but to create the ultimate hybrid.
Featuring only changes that we the fans dub as A-OK. So what I propose is that we take up a vote on EVERY single change made, and use that as a basis for creating the "OT/SE Hybrid" to fit alongside the complete O-OT.
(In a sense, what the 'Special Edition's should have been all along)
So I am going to number off every change made. You can either vote yes or no for each one.
