George Lucas, thy name is irony

Okay, you may have heard that Lucasfilm is releasing the original, unaltered Star Wars trilogy on DVD. You may have also heard that the DVDs are old, non-anamorphic transfers that were done for the laser disc release in 1993. Needless to say, people are pissed.

Lucasfilm, on the other hand, is trying to convince people that this is a good thing, and that they're going the extra mile for fans.

The fans aren't convinced.

Here's a quote from THX 1138, Lucas' first film.

"Buy more. Buy more now. Buy more and be happy."

Ah, I love it when people are unintentionally ironic. I brings joy to my heart, and a smile to face.
