  • I hate to rain on your parade, but one feature I'd like to have seen was an isolated score. I can only dream, it seems...

    Also, what about Lucas's plans to release IV, V, and VI on DVD?

    I'll buy another Star Wars movie when they release episodes IV, V and VI in their "remastered" forum. Not the special editions, not the new special-special editions, but only the THX versions. If that ever happens, I'll give George some of my money.

    I am buying both LOTR releases.... bastards, I have to because they are going to have different sets of features, not overlapping.
  • Hey Blockbuster has that deal. If you pay $25 you get one rental a week for free for 10 weeks. And they give you LOTR DVD for FREE!!!!!!

    Bah...we're talking about STAR WARS here! Not LotR. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    Rain on my parade? Isolated score...????

    Actually, Lucas will be releasing the original trilogy on DVD in a box set I believe. From my sources, it will include both the original (THX remastered one) and Special Editions.

    2005 is the expected release date.

    Lucas said it would probably be 2005 because he wants to finish Episode III first. He has a LOT planned for the DVDs. I'm thinking 6 DVDs for the entire thing. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif[/img]

    In fact, I think work on them is about to begin (if it hasn't already).
