Star Wars fans were eagerly debating a big rumor this morning about the Unaltered Original Trilogy, but now a bucket of ice water has been tossed on it.
Today Pablo Hidalo Tweeted a comment about the current rumor about the Unaltered Original Trilogy possibly coming out for the 40th Anniversary, and one of his replies seems to confirm a long-standing theory of the status of Star Wars cuts:
Still a limited theatrical run could technically be in the cards as such a thing would be a one-off event (that George wouldn’t need to sign off on) for the 40th anniversary while the current versions of the Original Trilogy remain the only ones you can own.
