You know I betcha what Lucas is waiting for is to see if enough people
want the original versions at which point he will bring them out on
dvds and will make another pile of $$$!

BTW I do not have a problem so much with the retouched version of Star
Wars(IV) as I do with the extra crap he put in V + VI because as I
understand much of what was added to IV was what he had intended to
put in the movie at the time. But it seems he could not because he had
a tight budget, and on top of that the Special Effects Technology was
not up to the level of what he had available to him in Empire and
Jedi, so I can understand why he wanted to restore those cut scenes he
had wanted to be in the first movie at the time of its original
release!
