I note on Star Wars Shop that the Ep III DVD will ship on 11/1. Will anyone be buying this yet? Should we have a meeting / viewing of it?

I beleive we've discussed having a 2-day 6-movie (plus possibly the clone wars) screening. November 18-19. I was going to do one of those days. And we were actually going to show all the movies in order.

Yeah, yeah, I know. Where have I been? Long story short....Army. Anyway, I'm totally game for the 18th and 19th! So, here's the big question. What version of the origional triology are we going to watch? OK, now fight amongst yourselves!

I could bring Vader, I'm thinking on another shape as well. But I have to experiment with that one. Either way, if you all wish, I'll bring a SW cake, LOL.

Wendy, you coming down for this one?

No fight about it. Obviously we must watch the original version without the two dimensional explosion shock wave.

Edit: are we sure that (a) they won't go backorder and (b) we'll have the DVD by that point?

I'll try and make it to this. I should have the ROTS DVD on the 1st, so I'll bring my copy with me just in case, especially since I'll be buying the Wal*Mart exclusive edition that has an extra disc with it containing an extra behind-the-scenes doc available nowhere else! grin

I'll have the DVD by then, too. I'm also getting the Wal-Mart version (although I might do the Best Buy midnight thing if they're doing that again like they did for the OT, and I'll just get Battlefront II while I'm there). BTW, do we want to do the Clone Wars cartoon, or just the six movies (viewing Clone Wars is pretty much like watching a 7th movie since parts 1 & 2 are 2 hours combined)?

Charles, I can tell you this much in a public forum about Best Buy and the ROTS DVD release, it's up to each store if they will be doing it at midnight or not. Last year LFL & Best Buy got together with the 501st and did the midnight release of OT on DVD. It's not really happening this time around since I will be at my Best Buy at 9:30am on Nov. 1st not at midnight.

While watching Clone Wars is a good idea, you should know that the DVD of Vol. 2 will not be hitting stores until December 6th. sad

And yes, I know that you probably have it recorded off of Cartoon Network. wink

I want to know why WalMart gets an extra disc! I HATE WalMart. They are the reason so many shops and other smaller stores are going out of business. ugh. Well, I guess I am going to do without the extra disc.

WalMart gets the extra disk for the same reason Target gets excluive figures...


It's all big business. These huge retailers can make sweet deals that the flanneled one can't refuse.


I'll be heading to Walmart to get my DVD, after I do my 501st duty at Best Buy! laugh

I'm game. I'll even buy this one. And I'm sure someone can come up with the OT in it's proper form. You know, on "videotape" or something (says the IP lawyer).....

And, hey, Drew - did I leave my clone wars tape at your house on Derby Day? I can't find it.

And, hey, Chrissy - maybe you'll have your baking sheet back by then....

I believe you did. Of course you probably intended to retrieve it when I opened the door again. I realized a few days later that everyone leaving was probably that "throwing the group out" thing. I've never really understood that. I guess it showed. happy Sorry all!

No worries - I'll pick it up sometime. We live sooooo far apart.
