Right.  Therefore, he created *new* material in an attempt to recreate
what he might have wanted to create in the first place.  Or something
like that.  :)

Anyway, the point is moot.  The Special Editions are "revised"
versions of the originals, any which way you slice it, and he plans to
stifle the originals.  That's patently wrong, and I hope he comes to
his senses on the subject.
