Yes, but I am of the opinion that by taking a risk with superior marketing and sheer force of passion and will that an organization with the history and resources of a movie studio (and Lucasfilm and Mr. Spielberg for that matter) can creatively MAKE a movie or trilogy relevant and interesting to a broad market at any given time. By adding all the extras and intelligent marketing "hype", they can proactively CREATE the market rather than reactively and tentatively "test the waters". "Our market demographics analysis data indicate we should release a mediocre trilogy box set in 2003 and an ultimate version in 2 or 3 years." That is BS- they've had 6 years to collect themselves and release a great version rather than just a good version. But I guess we should expect this if in the long term they will rake in more total revenue by milking us twice. It's all about the money, not the fans.
