Re: OT - Star Wars trilogy out today
For once the UK gets a release before the US!

I got it yesterday. Shiny, isn't it?

Re: OT - Star Wars trilogy out today
I've heard rumors that Lucas has made some little changes in this new release. Is that true? For example, at the end of Return of the Jedi, what does Darth Vader's ghost look like?

Re: OT - Star Wars trilogy out today
Yes, he added and changed stuff on the DVD....
I wish he would publish the original.. For its time if was a fantastic movie and still is a great watch.
Personally I think he has some issues.. Every artist wants to have the personal perfection before their art sees the light of day but when your art does so many first things you need to simply be proud and grateful that people appreciate your art. Especially when so much great art goes unappreciated.
Go ahead and revise and edit, but always keep the original and be grateful that you were given the chance to revise and edit.

Re: OT - Star Wars trilogy out today
Unfortunately, Lucas is still in his 50's. He maybe around for another 20-30 years, or more. Who knows how many more times he may tinker with his creation. I'm just hoping that once he dies, or the ownership of Lucasfilms passes hands to someone else, then the original movie may make it on dvd. But that's a long time to wait. I guess we'll have to settle for the revised Version for some time to come. Who knows, if someone is smart enough to avoid the legalities of the matter, a bootleg of the original movie could be transferred from a good vhs copy to dvd. Not that I'm advocating bootlegging or piracy, of course. But I think Lucas passed on a great opportunity to give the fans what they really wanted, a chance to see the original movie as it was seen some 25+ years ago. He could have included the original Versions along with the special editions, doubled the price of the box set, and still make millions.

Re: OT - Star Wars trilogy out today
I've just finished watching the trilogy on DVD and was not bothered at all by any of changes that were made - they're all pretty minor and insignificant really. I do enjoy the extra creatures roaming in the background. [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Racoon.gif[/img]
Out of the three, I liked The Empire Strikes Back best.

Re: OT - Star Wars trilogy out today
LOL!
Those five-minute Star Wars things are Great!
And as for the real Trilogy, I REALLY want to see the Trilogy again. It's been like.....4 MONTHS since I've been able to see it, what with not having a TV in this dorm room.
