Geekdom: One Step Forward, Two Steps Back

They're reporting that Lucasarts is now going to release the original Star Wars (screen cap, above) on DVD. I couldn't care less, and neither should anyone else. How even the most rabid fanboy could care at this point boggles my mind, what with Lucas' constant stream of bullshit about his original/pure/holy vision(s). Sure, I loved the movies when I was a kid and understood that the prequils could never match the originals as seen when I was, like, 7, but Lucas himself is such a clueless whore that I'd like him to be launched into the sun at taxpayer expense, for the good of Art and Humanity.
