George doesn’t have all your money yet. But he WILL. You can’t stop him. He will just keep releasing the same movies OVER and OVER with little tweaks.
a 6-disc box set is currently in the works to coincide with the 30th Anniversary of the original Star Wars movie hitting theatres. In typical George Lucas fashion there will be more tinkering, including replacing the puppet Yoda in Episode I with CG, plus a ton of new special features: “…all the good stuff that was held back by Lucasfilm from the original Trilogy DVD release a few years ago.
Oh. My. Disembodied Force Ghost.
ObiWan just rolled over in his fictional grave.
I thought this might be it. The up coming Uncut Original FanWank Trilogy set on DVD next month should have been all of them.
So to my knowledge, I will try to list all the avaiable collected sets released. (not including individual title releases)
Collectors Edition Letterbox VHS set (Including Star Wars to Jedi, the “making of” documentary) -which I own
LaserDisk Original Trilogy
Special Edition Original Trilogy VHS (released before Lucas agreed to put them on DVD) – which I own
Special Edition Original Trilogy DVD Edition – which I own
Original Uncut Trilogy DVD set (which will include the Special Edition DVDs that you already bought)
And now Lucas has announced the
30th Anniversary Special DVD Edition Boxed set
And with any luck, that set will strategically not be in HD or BluRay, which will mean the HD Collected set will be set to come out with CGI updated versions of the updated shots that didnt look as good as Lucas wanted.
Then when it turns 50, Lucas can release a version that replaces the original trilogy actors with a digitally imported older looking versions of the prequel trilogy actors.
You heard it here first. Columbia House is about to announce their own StarWars DVD Club. Buy 3 versions and commit to buy the next 10 withing 6 years, and you will get a membership card that says Lucas owns your soul. And the Christmas Special.
