How many releases does this make now? I think I'll stick with my THX versions of the originals, personally.

Well, to be fair, this is easily the most significant release, since it's on a new format and everything.
And THX originals? Why don't you just go and read stuff written on stone tablets, eh? EH?

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

I still say in about 10 years Lucas will re-re-release the trilogy with new SFX the way he "Really, REALLY, had imagined it" before all the new (in 10 years) computer tech had been invented. Then Sci-fi channel can wait 20 years and "Reimagine" it.

There is NO WAY (no matter how many teen-boy fantasies) that Carrie Fischer will ever look like Xenia Seeburg!! (I hope that was the correct spelling)
I always wanted to see the scene in ANH of Luke going to Anchorhead and speaking to his friends.
I reckon they should put 'Troops' in there to show what REALLY happened to Owen and Beru!

You can see the "Lost Scenes" (Luke and Biggs, Luke at Anchorhead, and a Mos Eisley cantina cut) on the LucasArts CD "Behind the Magic," released in 1998. As of right now, it's the only place you can see them. Hopefully, this DVD will include them.
Yes, this is a great announcement, and everyone hope that the special features are superb.

I wish we'd get both SE and origibal versions on the disk but i'm sure not holding out much hope there.
Think they'll subject up to the horror of the "Christmas Special"?

Star Wars! Yeah!
Have you seen those cut scenes?
Does anyone know of a list of cut scenes that didn't make eps 4, 5 and 6?
Also maybe some of those rumours about them putting Padme in some scenes might be on the DVDs?
Of course there will definately be a sneak peek at Ep III.

You're not suggesting that, with the existence of the special editions, the original movies should be relegated to the trash can?
A few months ago, I got the pre-THX (1992) videos of all three movies for a grand total of less than $15. They were all in pretty much new condition. In fact, RotJ was still wrapped in plastic.

The "fuck"? I thought Lucas was always adamant about not releasing the original trilogy on DVD until he'd completed the prequels?
