Now if we could just get him to see reason about putting the original AND special edition star wars releases onto DVD. You'd think the simplest reason would be - if he doesn't someone WILL, in a pirate version, because the demand is out there. So why shouldn't he do it and get all the credit?

I'm still convinced that not releasing Star Wars and the Indiana Jones stuff a while ago, even though it can be justified (rationalized) by the fact that Lucas could not edit them to his satisfaction, was due to purposeful stalling because he was bitter about choosing the loosing horse.  .
What is off is that altough I am into most of the sci-fi movies and stuff, and am truly a geek by most any definition, the Star Wars movies have never done anything for me... I have not cared for the story line in any of them.
