Disney acquires Star Wars original theatrical versions rights from Fox

[Shark_Blade]

So Disney acquired 21st Century Fox recently.

Sure, Marvel gets X-Men & Fantastic 4 in their MCU. But the most interesting thing to me is this Star Wars related news:

Disney gets to complete its two major geek culture franchises, by adding the X-Men and Fantastic Four properties to its Marvel Cinematic Universe, as well as gaining possession of the original theatrical versions of Star Wars, before the digitally remastered versions of were put out by George Lucas.

YES!!! No more stupid added on CGI alien singing at Jabba Palace, no awkward out-of-place crowd and spaceship flying at the end, no weirdly out of place Young Anakin soul/ghost at the end of Return of the Jedi to name a few.



Just pure original theatrical release! Finally, gimme the Bluray already! All praise & thanks to God Almighty.

Waiting for the news on the blurays - development, sales. They might even release it on theatres like they did Phantom Menace 3D! Exciting!
