I'm really hoping that the decoded stuff was just overlooked in the product description, because, as long as it is an optional commentary-like feature, I'd love to see it, however silly or redundant some of it is. I haven't had access to Cartoon Network for months and was out of the US so haven't been able to watch any of the decoded episodes except the first one. I think not including that on the DVD would be a very poor judgment call by whoever is in charge of the production of them. The rest of the information, however, looks absolutely awesome! Widescreen and extended episodes...wow.


I personally don't care about Decoded, but I'm a little surprised it isn't at least on the Blu-Ray version. Maybe they didn't have space to essentially double all the episodes?


I'm also surprised we have to wait until November 3rd. "Surprised" actually isn't the right word. frustrated

I predictably hope we get more Plo Koon in the directors' cut episodes. It would assuredly be wishful thinking to hope they throw in 'Plo Koon fights Grievous IN SPACE', but hey, a little more character and fighting is always good, right? XD


I don't think they're actually rendering new or unproduced scenes like the Plo Koon in space thing- the episodes will just have the scenes that were cut from the broadcast version for time (like some of the scenes previewed on the TCW movie DVD such as the Bantha Droid scene in the Droid Duo) or some of the alternate HD scenes (like Padme/Anakin's lines on the Malevolence train).

Depending on how they approached it, it wouldn't necessarily be "doubling" an episode- they could either layer the information over the image (if not as broadcast, at least through a DVD player's subtitle system ala text commentary track features) or merely include the specific moments of footage with factoids as alternate angles that are switched back and forth from (so you might only need a few minutes per episode duplicated, not the whole thing start-to-finish).

Why is the Ryloth trilogy on two volumes? On volume 4 and on Clone Commandos volume.

EDIT: Forget it. Those are two different collections.

There will be episode commentaries by filoni, the episode writers, directors and the animation crew.

The episodes had better be in 2.35:1. My favourite episode in season 1 is "Cloak of Darkness" and really want to see that one in its OAR.

I emailed the people on the Official Star Wars website about whether the episodes will be in 2.35:1 and the response I got was:

"Yes, the episodes should be in 2.35:1".

GREAT!!!

The packaging, its... it's just... beautiful!

This is looking like a very nicely made set in itself. Lets hope the packaging is a sign at better presentation on the discs themselves. TCW movie and AGD were horrible in their presentation. frustrated

Only a little bit longer then a week away! I am very excited for this! I can't wait to watch it on blu-ray.

Though I am still puzzled by Commander Cody on the boxset cover, don't get me wrong I'm not mad but just surprised they chose him over the Jedi and Captain Rex.

Something that is noteworthy, it appears the actual DVD/Blu-Ray case doubles as a hardback cover for the production journal. Certainly an interesting way to package the set.

The set looks like its a similar "book" case format, much like the Amadeus set on blu ray. Looks amazing.
