Trailer

The announcement of the title is 2 months early and most people seem to think it's so that Lucas can put the trailer either on the TPM DVD or release it with Apocalypes Now Redux. I can't wait!!! 😄

OOOOOOOH, the tension. I can't stand it!!!!! Could it... Would it....????????? AAAAARRRGGHHHHH, I must have it NOW!!!!

I hope you are talking about the trailer! 🤣

But Apocolypse Now Redux is already playing in theaters so he cant put it in that, and I would think that TPM DVD's are already being produced, I doubt that the preview will be on the DVD.

But he could put it on the AN Redux DVD.... And I do hope they put it on the DVD, I expect it in the theatres and online by then.

I didn't know Apocalypse Now is in theatres. It's not here.

When the DVD was announced, the official site said "and more suprises on the way". Maybe it's on the DVD but it's just a suprise.

Yeah, AN Redux opened last Friday in the US, I wish the trailer would appear on TPM DVD, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Wouldn't the trailer show up in theaters before it became available as a DVD preview?..Come on guys..3 months..that's not a long time. 😂

Don't take away our dreams, Dimmy. 😄

But shouldn't the teaser come out around October then? Like with TPM? I hope, I hope, I hope.

On the other hand, those LFL people say they can't release worldwide because they're working on the film all the way up to release, so dubbing is out of the question to release it everywhere at the same time. Maybe getting a trailer ready for the DVD is really pushing their deadlines.... Still hoping though.

If you watch the TPM trailer you can see that some of the shots weren't finished. When you first see Theed, the roofs of the buildings are different from what they are in the final film. There is other stuff like this and the sound is a bit different.

There was the missing reflection of Maul's sabre.

There's a rumour that we might have a DVD link to a restricted part of the Official Website where DVD owners can download the Trailer...

*GASP*

WONDERFUL!!!!!!!!!!!! And you Brits have it first! AARRRRRRRRRRRGGGHH.

I didn't know that was possible. 🙂 Are people here buying it on the net or in shops?

I'm gonna go buy it in the shops to ensure I have it on the 15th.

As to the technicalities of the restriction, I think they can do it by only allowing entry to users from a certain referrer.

To explain, when you click on a link, it is possible for the website you are entering to read the site that you came from. Therefore if they program dvd.starwars.com, or whatever the site is, to only allow entry to users who come from a link on the DVD then it should work.

I'm getting it from my video rental store. The guy who runs it sells DVD's with hardly any profit. I'll save some US$12 on that one, but I don't know if I'm getting it EXACTLY on October 17. Then again, I do save quite a bit on it and that's worth something right?

Normally I would, but if there is any chance of the trailer link, (Remember for a moment what my website specialises in!) then I HAVE to have a copy on the morning of the 15th...

I have a DVD Drive on my computer, and now many DVD's work with a program called PCFriendly, which interfaces the DVD with the internet. I guess they could do it that way, but that would only be available for people with DVDRoms. I think that GL wouldn't discrimintate against people who did not purchase the DVD and not allow them to see the trailer unless the purchase the DVD. I'm positive, that Lucas will release it in theaters and on his web site, so that everyone can see it. 🙂

Who knows. As I said before, it would be around the time that the trailer is to be released.

Tex, think like a marketing exec for a second...

I don't think I'm saying that they would with hold it, but if they gave DVD owners exclusive access, say a week before the rest, it would sure boost DVD sales.
