Title: Lucas fails to respect the film that made him rich
Product review: Without the 1977 version of Star Wars, George Lucas would be just another filmmaker, ILM would be just another effects shop and Skywalker Ranch would be a few acres of undeveloped land in Marin County.The original theatrical version may not be the film George Lucas believes he wanted to make. He may be be embarrassed by it now, but for millions of fans, this version has been more than good enough. If it was so bad, George, why did so many people see it a dozen times in the theater? Why did it play in the theaters for almost a full year without interruption?The 1997 and 2004 "special" editions did not make you a billionaire. This version did and it's time you showed it the respect it deserves, like a fully anamophic transfer on DVD instead of an inferior 13 year copy of a laserdisc.
