I got the new SW DVD's. I feel like such a sucker... another box set in my collection... I still have 2,5 VHS box sets of the OT, now 2 DVD box sets... I must be insane to let Lucas empty my wallet.
I fancied buying A New Hope for the cantina scene...But I don't fancy going out to buy it for that sole purpose, perhaps on the way back from a bar, and if a nice store is open at 2am I'll splash out on it
I find something strange though. I have two box sets: one with the 1997 SE's (which is on the new DVD's) but I also have a remastered VHS box of the OT BEFORE the SE's.... Why isn't that on those DVD's... they were practically the originals but in good condition one wouldn't need a letterbox 4:3 version of...
ye ive only bought the Empire Strikes Back DVD, and the menu for that is cool but after the menu has come up its boring after that theres just still pictures, but the first few seconds of the menu comin up is great!
and i can now fully appriciate the new versions of the trilogy, not that i didn't before, its just now i can see the comparisons on the same format and same screen
but i will agree that it is a bit expensive to keep buying all these, and cant really afford it, but hell its Star Wars!!!
I might get these at some stage... But let's face it, there will be tonnes of opportunities to get films on various formats in the future. So I'm in no hurry.

So they're saying the originals are being released for the first and ONLY time on "DVD"...but does that necessarily mean that they wont be released again (such as on "HD"-DVD)???
Is this Lucas just giving the originals a dvd format and putting them to rest, or are they just fiddling w/ words?

He said he'd never release them on DVD, period.... He said he'd never release any OT on the current DVD format... He did both. So what are we to believe. I start saving up for the next SW box set.
