Like so many others, I’ve awaited the release of original theatrical versions, at least of Star Wars (1977), on Blu-ray, but the Despecialized Edition might now be taking on a life of its own, creating an alternative universe of viewers with a specialized knowledge not just of the production discrepancies between the original and the altered versions but also of the many social, aesthetic, and philosophical implications. At some point, in other words, George Lucas and 20th-Century Fox might become bit players inserted into the original forum that was created right here.
