Okay, but no one touched on my main gripe with the first remastering: Did they fix the fucking rancor? Goddamn, that thing is ugly, the movie still looks pretty impressive, but that thing looks like it escaped from a movie from the 30's.
And about getting the originals in laserdisc/DVD, i'm sure soon enough a pissed of fan will get this thing to make the round on the good old interwebnet (better now montez?)
