New Star Wars DVDs
-
-
Hell… Yes.
So, does Lucas need money or something? I doubt he needs it. Maybe the fans just kept bothering him for the original.
Finally, I get to again see Han shoot first.
-
I am so happy I didn't buy any of the previous DVDs.
-
I've been boycotting the dvds waiting for this. After I saw what he did to Return of the Jedi in the latest special edition I wanted nothing to do with it.
-
what i find particularly annoying is that he should have been providing these non-edited versions with the previous dvd releases. that's if he didn't become this big money-eager he's now.
-
Just wait for HD-DVDs and a whole new release like maybe more footage or remastered sound, or something else Lucas will do in a scheme to get more money.
-
Hey, I'm game for this. (that and I never got the first box set) While I know about Lucas' greed, at least we get his work back when it was merely a science-fiction trilogy instead of a franchise. (then again…it stopped merely being a movie when "Star Wars Mania" started in '77)
-
…YES!
YES!
YES!
YES!
PRAISE CHRIST! NO LONGER DO I NEED MY LASERDIC DVD COPIES FOR ORIGINAL MOVIE!
YES!
YES!
IM BUYING THAT AND THE NEW SPECIAL EDITION IN 2008!
Excuse my capslock. Im just uber excited.
-Star Wars God -
I won't buy these either. When the 50th Anniversary comes around and he releases some gi-gundor super release with original AND updated versions of all 6 films, then I'll consider it. Until then, nice try Lucas! But I shall not accept defeat yet!!!
-
Hmmmm not sure if I'll bother, I still have working copys of the origonal 3 when they were released on Video about 10 years ago. Personally I'm just gonna wait it out till they release a box set with all 6 films in.

@Anime:

If you heard that off of Supershadow's site, allow me to inform you that Supershadow is a fraud.
In any case, I'll be buying this set. because I'm a whore for Star Wars. That and I prefer muppets to CG. And Han shooting first. Woooot.
-
I haven't bought any of the movies on dvd yet. So this is going to be my chance of getting them all in one in swop with the oringal movies, that I haven't seen since I was 10 or 11. So this is great news for me. Because I want to see Han shooting first again.
-
…I know Supershadow is a fraud. Lucas announced he was doing the New Speciad edition on Blue Ray DvDs and in 3d. Plus its the boxset of all the filmss, plus deleted scenes and stuff.
Wikipedia has it as well as Star Wars Insider magazine -
I already have the special edition boxed set. I guess it's too late now.
-
As do I. But if these are the original theatrical cuts…with Star Wars not having Episode IV on it...we can hear Beru's original voice! KICK ASS!
-
Why didn't they just release this before?
-
Get….... the fuck........... outta here.
-
egx why does you rank still say failed member when you are not banned. Also cool news tho i have the box set with the replaced darth vader >>
-
Cause I fail at life o.o

I'm with you. I've been holding out for a COMPLETE box set rather than two seperate ones or now seperate versions of the originals.. I'll stick with my remastered (not the special edition) tapes for now, thank you very much.
Though this is good to hear, either way.
-
Aw crap, figures, they release them right after I buy DVDs. XP Good news, though. Like Cap'n said, why didn't they just release these before?
-
More money this way >.> Make them miss the original by adding suckiness… THEN bring them back to cash in dough. Lucas sux.
-
Speaking of long-awaited dvds…I'm still waiting for the "special" Blade Runner dvd that was supposed to come out in like 2002 or 2003. Supposedely it'll be out in 2007, but I've almost given up.
-
I motion this thread's title to be changed to the more accurate, "Old Star Wars DVDs"
Edit: This post is not as funny after seeing that the original link is titled the exact same thing.
-
Figures, he'll have them only purchasable for christmas season.
And now, to get my ass completely kicked I'll state my opinion on something.
I prefer the prequals.

Line starts behind me.
Anyway, I think I'll pick these up.
