Question about the Upcoming Star Wars DVDs
Well I was sitting watching TV when I saw a commercial hyping the upcoming Star Wars DVD release. Well I was watching the it and it showed one of the ships from the Episode 1 & 2 crashing into the deathstar. Know does this mean that Lucas took the three greatest films and entered newer crap into them that belonged in the other films. Can someone please confirm if this is true. Is this a different version of the original three than we have seen in the past? If this is true then I dont think that its worth getting. Sure to finally see Star Wars on DVD would be worth it but not if its not the original version of the film.

He's done some visual touchups (like taking the old, shitty Jabba they had and replacing him with a CG model from the newer movies) and fixed some issues that would cause loose ends i.e. filming Ian McDermid as the Emperor and some other stuff..

The only change I've heard about is at the end of Return of the Jedi when you see all the ghosts and stuff they replaced the guy who was Anakin with Hayden whatever his name is.

Oh, and they also removed Chewbacca from all scenes and replaced him with Jar Jar Binks.

I still don't see WTF the point is, since they just released that like "Digitally remastered special edition trilogy" pack like 4 years ago

It wasn't. But it's pretty much the same which is what RDD is saying.

The VHS version may have been digitally remastered but there's a whole lot more "remastering" that can be done when you switch it over to DVD format.

I mean... I probably won't buy it since I have the VHS...

And I didn't like the "Special Edition" of Star Wars... especially when they changed some music.

I wouldnt actually doubt that Mackem. If I were Lucas I would release one version on DVD and when fans buy it and realize its not the version they wanted then they will complain....then wait a while later and release the original version and more people will buy it. Its like double the money.

Its funny because everytime I read about someone talking about Jar Jar Binks it reminds me of that simpsons episode where comic book guy is hugging that jar jar action figure and says "Oh Jar Jar, Im the only one who loves you"
