Came out today. I bought it. Not for me, but for my sister who loves George Lucas up the butt.

Came out officially today. Got it in and put it out at work Friday. I am getting it for about $45 American. It runs about $75 after tax in American regurlarly, but I get discounts cause I work for a video store rental place.

Why buy it yet again? I just don't understand...

Because I'm a big Star Wars Fan and I lost my VHS Copies of the originals, so why not buy them?

I don't have the tapes or anything. I watched a little bit of one of the movies at work on the TV system, the picture quality itself is leaps and bounds over the original. They did an excellent job digitally remastering it. The whole disc devoted to special features is practically worth it alone. The movies are good stuff, I think it is worth it, at least to me because I can get it for cheaps.

What disappoints me about it is that it's the Special Edition of Star Wars and not the original. Special Edition changes some of the music! :foc:

I might buy it if the price is not too expensive.

You still aren't getting the originals.

I know this, but you can't find the Originals anywhere anyway, so I'm not too concerned. Most Star Wars Purists will be irritated by the Special Editions, but there's not alot you can do really.

Alright, they're George Lucas's films. He can fuck with them if he wants, get over it. Nevertheless, even with the changes, these movies are still one of the greatest trilogies ever. Once I start my job and accumulate income, I'll pick this up.

I almost picked it up today but it was too pricey at the store I went to. I'll get it at Best Buy this week instead.

I have the original, as in, the 1st relase ever, of the ESB on VHS. I used to have them all, but the other 2 got lost when we moved from England back to the states.

Not too expensive for this = 50 bucks CAD. What's the price at the moment?

I just got done watching all 3 films on this set, I would have to say that the picture and sound quality is amazing.

I have no problem with the scene changes in "A New Hope" and "Empire Strike Back", they don't bother me.

But I'm upset at all the changes of "Return of the Jedi". I don't think I'll ever watch the '97 version of "Jedi" ever again. Very dissapointing and saddening. The ending of "Return Of Jedi" was very sickening. The changes of the music, the city locations during the victory celebration, and the change of the Anakin ghost from the old Anakin to the younger Anakin. Pathetic. :mad:

George Lucas happened to put together the only good idea he's ever had in his life with Star Wars, so now he's looking for as many ways as humanly possibly to make money off of the same idea.

What the fu</>ck is going on in your head. The way the prequels have turned out now, the old ghost of Anakin makes no sense at all, and why the hell do music changes make a difference? I miss my Ewok song too, but for God's sake, all the crying about it is the real sickening thing.
