I was thinking we should all write letters to Disney, Fox and Lucasfilm to have them join together for 2016 for a boxset of the original trilogy and one with episode 7.
For the past 13 years George Lucas has been torturing, butchering, mutilating, vandalizing, etc. the original trilogy to no end on DVD and blu-ray, i mean i own the untouched original theatrical cuts on 1995 widescreen VHS and laserdisc plus the 1997 Special Edition on laserdisc and not to mention a bonus disc from the 2004 boxset. In 2004 and 2011 Lucas made some more editing and more crappy unwelcomed stuff like changing the ghost of Anakin at Jedi's end, adding "Noooo" to Vader, Han still not shooting first, Ewoks that blink, Jabba the Hutt's door in Jedi altered etc. and Lucas is too damned lazy to release and restore the original cuts. I boycotted the 2011 blu-rays like everyone else until Lucas hears our demands especially when i refuse to buy the boxset so i won't give Lucas anymore money but i did had my mom buy me the blu-ray boxset for Christmas in 2011 then after Christmas i watched the set to see what other crappy changes he made but i'm glad he sold his company as he is hands away and retired as he is away from his company so he won't do anymore damage to the old movies anymore, i mean if it worked for when Disney bought Pixar that Lassester became in charge of Disney's animation as he put the sequels to a stop then it worked for Disney buying Lucasfilm as Lucas is hands off at last with someone new in charge as it has put an end to Lucas's non-stop special edition nonsense.
Last August when there was another boxset of the OT on BD i wondered "Might these be the original, unedited, uncut and unviolated versions?" then no still the same -poor versions from 2011. I swear Lucas has became a cinematic troll but i am happy when i heard it was being sold and that he had to retire i was like "Oh thank science, he's gone oh happy happy joy joy".
Let's all write letters to Disney, Fox and Lucasfilm to join together for a boxset of the original trilogy with the new movie included and have the companies do a deal together, i mean it worked for MGM/Warner/Fox for Mad Max trilogy on BD, Chucky collection with MGM/Fox/Universal, Lionsgate-Warner for the Nolan Collection BD, Lionsgate-Universal-Warner for the Tarantino Collection on BD etc. and have them go into the Lucasfilm vaults to get the original negatives of the untampered original theatrical cuts then do a 42k Scan with clean up on the negatives and do some proper restorations to make them look fresh and great on BD and HD. The 3 companies can make millions of dollars and would be on their best sellers list as we all have been waiting for the original un-vandalized original cuts to hit DVD and blu-ray for a long time.
Disney is no stranger to film preservation like say Snow White or Bambi or Pinocchio or Beauty and The Beast or Lion King or Tron etc. as all have amazing HD restorations and look amazing, Disney-Fox-Lucasfilm can do the same to the untouched SW trilogy
