HD Blue-Ray Star Wars or Indiana Jones?

I was wondering if they'll release any of the two in HD or Blue-Ray?

Probably, but Lucas has always been very resistant to these sorts of things. It took a dog's age to get Star Wars onto DVD (and even longer for Indiana Jones). I think he still wants to see a revival of Laser Disk :-D . In all seriousness, one of the biggest drawback for HD formats is that studios and producers have been slow to get behind the technology with must-have titles.

Actually, I had a friend who was in charge of DVD production at Fox. She told me that they sent officials on a near monthly basis to beg him to release SW on DVD. He kept refusing because he was waiting for the installed DVD user base to be big enough for large profits. He had nothing against the technology, he is just a businessman first.

Watch the Phantom Menance DVD. Lucas got $2 BILLION from JUST Pepsi for endorsement rights to it, yet he kept insisting that they keep movie costs under $100 million. That's not an artist speaking, that is a businessman.

Edit for typo.
