Who else had a part of their souls die when they saw this? I mean, c'mon, where's remastered original versions, to say nothing about Blu-Rays.
Despite the coolness of the box, I'm not getting this sad set. Heck, I ain't getting anymore Star Wars DVDs until the originals are made to look their finest.

Padawan LearnerI actually had a bit of an uplift when this set was announced.
I Don't plan to buy it unless my 2006 "Bonus discs" fail,
but the fact fo the matter is: the Undestroyed trilogy is being released again after only two years, even after lucasfilm boasted in 2006 that the limited editions would be the ONLY release of the UDT.
sure, it's not in all the fancy smanchy modern transfers, but it is perfectly watchable and it still gives me the same feeling I always got from it, even when all I had was pan and scan VHS.
(kind of like the case with The Force Unleashed, several people are ranking the Wii Version as the best, despite the lack of HD Graphics or DDM and euphoria)
it gives me hope that even Lucasfilm itself will not allow the UDT to fade away, that they're on our side.

I never thought of it that way. You just brought my happiness level up. I guess there may still be hope.

Yes, I do see it as a sign of hope. Maybe it means the GOUT sold well enough to make it worthwhile enough to sell the OOT again. I wish somebody could provide info on how well the GOUT sold.
You know the GOUT is still selling in stock on Amazon as if it's still print. Maybe that's just Amazon or maybe there's something going on there. After all, it was supposed to stop selling after December 31 2006.

Tauntaun herder-Damn Fool Idealistic CrusaderAfter watching the GOUT Empire, I am as giddy as I was after I saw the trilogy for the first time. For a while I let the alterations get in the way. Hopefully, the eventual blu-ray release will mean that the circle will finally be comeplete. In a perfect world we will see a Blade Runner-esque complete release with wonderful anamorphic transfers of all versions. Fingers Crossed!
