   I really don't care if George Lucas is greedy.  I would be too in   
   his position.  And I don't care if he releases 25 versions of each   
   film.  I wouldn't even care if he made a version with JarJar dubbed   
   in over R2D2.  My only gripe is that he won't release the theatrical   
   versions of the original trilogy in decent quality.  If he did that,   
   I can guarantee you that all complaints would cease immediately.
