Starting a jet fuel fire on September 11th, eh? What will the neighbors think?

I'm glad I'm not the only one who caught that.

I'm so buying this. I don't own any copies of Star Wars and the OOT (original original triliogy) is the only version I'd ever buy.

We have VHS and nothing else since we refuse to buy the "new" sets. Since my VCR has been broken for a while now, it will be VERY nice to see films #1, 2 & 3 again.

So let me see if I have this right:


Star Wars IV-VI VHS/Laserdisk 1995
Star Wars IV-VI Wide-screen "Special" Edition released on DVD Sept 2004
Star Wars IV-VI Original Versions to be released Sept 2006

------
Star Wars IV-VI Definitive Edition box set (Blu-ray) 2007 - A return to monkeying around

Star Wars IV-VI 3D Edition 2007+

Star Wars IV-VI (Blu-ray) Original versions ????

There was a time in my life when a purchase like this would have been obligatory. But at some point something changed and I look around and see that not only have I never purchased any of the Star Wars movies in any format, I don't care at all about ever seeing them again.

I wonder how much of that is just a change in me and how much is Mr. Lucas really screwing things up.

innerSpaceman 05-04-2006 07:02 PM

Eh, the more the follow-ups are screw-ups, the more it is demonstrated that the originals were brilliant.

It don't seem so easy anymore when even their creator can't capture the magic again.

Alex 05-04-2006 07:13 PM

Hasn't worked that way for me. Over the last decade I have almost completely lost interest in the original movies as well. As I said I don't know how much of that is because of taint form the new movies or I've simply moved on from it.

I move on from lots of films. But I tend to fixate on the ones that have been censored or otherwise tampered with. Fantasia, Close Encounters ... it will be nice to see Star Wars returned to its original condition - - then maybe I can finally be done with it.




maybe.
