: Who has the rights to Indiana Jones, is it George Lucas, Lucasfilm, Spielberg, or Paramount??? I mean who is in charge when comes to things like rereleasing the Indy movies, making a DVD, or creating the Indy toys? And how did they get the rights? I mean I pretty mad at whoever is behind the scenes.

I thought that it is ultimately Lucasfilm (and as head of Lucasfilm, George Lucas) who ultimately decides when and on what format to release the movies. Paramount acts under contract as a distributor for the film after Lucas gives them the go-ahead to release it in a format. Lucasfilm is also responsible for the mastering process in producing the transfer for a film. All as I understand it, of course. Am I in error?
