Does anyone know anything about this bonus DVD offered with Sith at WalMart? The only thing I could find was too small to read online. On the standup in the store, it says something like C3P0 and R2D2 tell the story of Luke and Anakin. Is it something new or something we've all already seen? I was just wondering......

Just saw the DVD trailer at starwars.com I can't wait to see all the bonus stuff!!

Loki said it's the same disc that they sale with the mini DVD-type players for kids. It's about 45 minutes to an hour and has lots of new stuff. He said it was good.

Best Buy is also thought to have a bonus disc and is thought to be a tie-in to "The Apprentice" (they have a SW mission this season). I can't remember who, but it seems like there was another retailer with a bonus disc (2 different stores were mentioned in the report and it seems like they were unsure of what BB's bonus was, so they weren't even saying it was disc at BB). Time will tell.

Yeah, a story on rebelscum.com said the Wal-Mart bonus disk was the same that you can buy for the "VideoNow" player. They've added a few things to it and put in some more "ROTS" stuff.

My girls have it for their VN, I've watched it, it's pretty entertaining, nothing ground-breaking, but still pretty good.

Figured I'd repost this story from TF.N news. By the way this is my 1500th post!!!! Here's the story:

The Story of Star Wars Will Set You Back

Posted By Dustin on November 1, 2005
In case you missed this post, here's a quick update for those heading out to Wal-Mart for their Revenge of the Sith DVD. It's been widely reported that the retailer giant was going to have an exclusive bonus DVD "The Story of Star Wars" packaged with Revenge of the Sith. What some were suprised to learn this morning is that the bonus DVD is not free (unlike the Target collector coin, the F.Y.E. 15-page Comic Book, or the Best Buy Star Wars print by artist Shepard Fairey, which are all free).

Price without the 60-minute bonus disc is $14.99, price with the bonus disc bundled into the package is $19.99.

Not a king's fortune, but still a little unexpected. I recall Best Buy offering a *free* exclusive bonus DVD with the Indy Jones trilogy box set...

The bonus disk is to ramp you up on the story, like anyone needs that. It's like the star wars storybook in video form.
