Nachdem vor einigen Wochen aus dem hause Lucasarts das Wort kam, man wolle nur die Special Edition auf DVD rausbringen, gab es erbitterte Aufschreie aus den Reihen der Fans.
Jetzt hat sich Lucasarts dazu geäußert.
Geklaut von TheForceNet.Fans aren't the only ones concerned about the movies' recent burial. Star Wars, released in 1977, was one of the first 25 films placed on the National Film Registry of the Library of Congress when it was formed in 1989. ''I think Star Wars is such a seminal film,'' says Steve Leggett, staff coordinator of the National Film Preservation Board, the body that advises the Library of Congress on which films to include on the registry. ''We would hope that somewhere down the line [Lucas] could release the original theatrical version as well as the [revamped] cut. It would be great for both scholars and historians. He's done a very good job of preserving the films. Access is completely at his discretion, especially in this case since he owns the copyright as well.''
Still, Lucasfilm hasn't closed the door completely on the original trilogy. ''Yes, we do know that a lot of fans are still saying, 'Oh, please release the original theatrical versions as well as the special editions,''' says Cole. ''We hear them, but we don't have any immediate plans. Our first focus right now is to get Episode III done.''
Niemals die Hoffnung aufgeben
