    Seriously. I'm glad he's doing this. A lot of fans have wanted this for a long time.

    Lucas is a freaking GENIUS!! He knows I'm going to buy it. This will be...what?... the six or seventh set of the same three movies I own now?

    God bless him! Now I can hear "Bring my shuttle!" as it was meant to be heard. :p


    Does this mean we get to stand in line again?

    Is this line capped?

    I'd heard this already and been overjoyed, but that's the cue for my official fangasm.

    I will put "Bring my Shuttle" on repeat. Tim, we should edit it into the 2004 edition.

    OK, so now that everyone is getting what they want and the originals are now going to be on DVD, will we have a bunch of kids who originally saw the SE's screaming that Lucas raped their childhoods?

    Or will we have a bunch of oldsters who liked the SE's screaming that Lucas raped their second childhoods?

    And he keeps hypnotizing me into buying more DVD sets of the same three films! He's like a flannel-clad Kenny Craig from "Little Britain"!

    Hey Ben, to each his own. I don't judge. As long as the both of you are having fun... :p

    I wonder if this is going to be based off of the original original or the one done in 1983 (THX version?) so the sound is better? I still think it'll be a bit more faded.

    And it's being sold with the 2004 SE edition, so you get two discs in each DVD set. Yep, another set.


    I want deleted scenes added back in to all six movies, dammit!!!!! <img src="http://www.rhonderoo.com/smilies/hissyfit.gif">

    That's what I'm saying! We need director's cuts of all six films!

    At the Spectacular the liscensing guy said we would eventually see the deleted scenes on DVD--I hope it's with this set.

    It does seem like a major miss-step to put the SE versions on a second set--we should be getting extra discs with bonus material like the old "making of" specials and other TV stuff in addition to the deleted scenes and anything else they can dig up.

    So have they said if these will be remastered for picture and sound quality?

    That's okay, we'll never quit griping about Lord of the Rings. [face_laugh]


    I'm thinking they'll at least clean up the scratches and stuff. I'm wondering if the matte lines will be gone and stuff.

    George Lucas does realise the effect this will have on the environment as everyone throws out their VHS and LD copies of the OOT, right?

    And my THX VHS copies.

    Who are we trying to fool? Like half of us here don't buy figures in pairs so we can leave one in the box ? [face_batting]

    These are awesome covers for the limited edition set. It looks like they took the Prowse Vader off the covers. This is ROTS Vader.


    new DVD set covers


    and it appears they really are working on a super saga edition for the anniversary.


    Please, please let there be deleted scenes.

    Oh! Oh! *waves hand* I have a gripe!

    Why'd they put ROTS Vader on the OT covers? I mean, not that it really matters, but I like Dave and the old suit. :p
