Unaltered Star Wars Triology DVDs - VGF

Codiekitty · 05-06-2006, 09:12 AM

Lucas's love of money finally gives us something good.

Where are these lemmings going? The Super Nintendo Super Shire! Hop in line and follow them there!

**Sean P Kelly** · 05-06-2006, 10:17 AM

However, they will only be available from Sept 12 to Dec 31

**Booyakasha** · 05-06-2006, 11:09 AM

You know, when George 'The Flannel Tyrant' Lucas said he wasn't ever going to bring the real movies to DVD last year, I spent fifty bucks specially ordering the mega hard-to-find widescreen VHS trilogy that they put out back in 1995 (or whenevernot). So, against all odds, I'm not overly happy at this news.

**Crazyswordsman** · 05-06-2006, 08:09 PM

Yeah. And I actually bought the new ones.... But I still have to get these. -CSM

Irkenwarrior12 · 05-06-2006, 09:37 PM

I prefer the semi altered ones. And adding Haden Christi-somthin-or-other at the end of ROTJ was the single stupidest act anyone had ever done, ever, at any place, at any time in any dimension.

Codiekitty · 05-06-2006, 09:47 PM

We actually have tapes of New Hope and Jedi (the latter was recorded off HBO), but I've never seen the unaltered Empire.

Koga · 05-07-2006, 04:51 AM

I've never seen any of the unaltered ones. I think I will rent these as I already own the 2004 box.

Viceroy Nute Gunray · 05-07-2006, 10:51 AM

Me neither. I think it would be nice to see them, but I'm not buying them because they'll probably be released again next year for the 30th Anniversary with new features (like DELETED SCENES??)

**Sean P Kelly** · 05-07-2006, 11:30 AM

I have the 1995 VHS box set.

You know, the differences aren't as big as people think they are.

CK mentioned not seeing the unaltered Empire Strike Back. Apparently that film is the LEAST changed of the special editions.

***CaptHayfever*** · 05-07-2006, 12:12 PM

^Greedo shooting first is a HUGE difference. A small change, but a huge difference.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Tonberry2k · 05-07-2006, 11:08 PM

Lame. I bought the altered ones on DVD. Now I have to trade in the crappy ones and get the good ones...

**Sean P Kelly** · 05-08-2006, 09:21 AM

Actually the new DVDs have BOTH versions.

I'm pretty sure Greedo was in A New Hope.

Codiekitty · 05-08-2006, 02:42 PM

What?

Koga · 05-08-2006, 04:48 PM

Hayfever was referring to Gimpy's second statement. He knows Greedo's in A New Hope.

Viceroy Nute Gunray · 05-08-2006, 06:33 PM

Yeah, Greedo isn't in any other movie anyway.

Ike · 05-08-2006, 07:51 PM

I'm lost now.

Let me clarify, Auron:

In reference to statement 1., whereas you thought he was referring to statement 2.
