TV Series You Didn't Like But Kept Watching
Time

During my first year at university, I was living in a 17 square meter appartement with only one room. So when I had to get up in the morning, I turned on the TV to not fall back asleep and the only thing that wasn’t an infomercial or a morning show was Eureka. So even though I didn’t really liked it, I watchted it almost daily. I didn’t hate it, but it’s certainly not a show I’d watch for enjoyment.

"Lucasfilm currently has no plans to release the original versions of Star Wars"
Time

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.

Well I take “It’s not as good as people says it is” as saying “I know better than everyone else” or “You should trust my opinion over most others” but that’s just me.

You can read minds though;

I don’t have to when I can just read the post.

but not as awesome as everyone says it is.

we can’t and just have to assume that his comments were made in good faith.

I’m sure he didn’t have any malicious intent with that post but taken at face value the post indicates that his point of view on the film holds more weight than others. Had he said something like “I don’t feel as though this film is as good as people have led me to believe” the entire feel of the post would have been totally different even though he was essentially saying the same thing.

Or it means “people are excited now, so they rate it high, after a while they may see it differently”.

There is definitely such a thing as an overrated movie. Just look at the prequels reviews right after release on RT. Compared to today’s scores, they were overrated. So saying Civil War is overrated does not mean “everyone is stupid but me”, it means “I expect this movie will be rated lower after some time has passed”.

One way or another, putting hope on the “profit” is delusional. As I already said, LF is making billions with each new film. Several millions of profits from potential release of theatrical versions is not even worth a consideration (profit-wise).

You guys can think whatever you want, but money is not the reason the OOT has been nixed. It has nothing to do with the distribution rights, either. The sole reason Disney has no plans to restore the OOT is because George Lucas doesn’t want it to happen. Kathleen Kennedy and his minions still run Lucasfilm. Lucas himself is the largest single living shareholder of Disney stock. It’s not going to happen as long as he is alive.

It’s been 4 years already. Let it go.

It didn’t stop Disney from throwing out his drafts for the ST or from not giving Strange Magic any form of promotion.
