cogadh: Actually, there is supposed to be some kind of "definitive collection" in the works that includes all 3 versions of the original trilogy (original, special edition, blu-ray edit), but they are holding back on releasing it until the anniversary in 2017.
Is this a rumor or something that can be somewhat confirmed? I could really use some definitive news on a proper theatrical release... I sat through the special edition of Jedi for the first time the other night and almost cried at the embarrassing CG Max Rebo Band sequence...
tinyE: What I'd rather see is original versions of the original versions on DVD and BluRay. If they want to clean it up fine, but get the fucking Greedo shot and Vader scream out of there.
That's what I meant by theatrical versions, not re-releases into the cinema, but disc releases of the original, un-fucked with versions. I'd be perfectly happy with a high def version of the remastered DVD releases. Nothing more than some colour grading and minor blemish touch-ups in those... no altered scenes, no ruined dialogue or any of Lucas' other bullshit, just the pure trilogy I love.
