Star Wars saga to be released in HD

By Piratefly, in X-Wing Off-Topic

I haven't seen this discussed yet but just saw this on MSN news. It looks like a pretty good collection. I really hope they are releasing the original trilogy as the classic release and not the special edition. I am refusing to let my wife watch the special ed version.

Sure, it's nice and all. BUt they've already been released physically. The only difference is now they're online. I can't spend $100 on a collection of movies I already own...

And each source (iTunes, Amazon, etc) will have a different set of extras. You would need to buy five sets of the full six movie package to get on full set of the extras.

Thanks for nothing Disney.

If they released the original theatrical versions digitally, then they can have my money. Otherwise, GTFO.

This is what I'm thinking too. I'd put down some money for that.

Already have them digital. I ripped the Blu-rays and made MP4 files suited for my iPad. Why pay again when you can make your own?

I would buy them if the originals are the original theatrical release versions. I wore out my VHS copies from the mid 90s.

My wife bought me the blue ray collection for Christmas last year, I was really disappointed not only that you could only get the re-released versions, but also that the special features were so lackluster.

I want the "Making of" documentaries along with the PBS specials and Entertainment Tonight spots added as "extras".

If they could do both those things, I would buy it in a second.

OK! How much did Lucas add/change THIS time???

It's the version where Vader shouts noooooooo while throwing the emperor down the shaft, I'd avoid it like the plague.

I got those :)
