Do you think Disney will release the unaltered versions for DVD and blue ray? — Page 21

Sony stated why they didn’t use the newly remastered mixes for the CD release that coincided with the digital collection. They said and I paraphrase “Younger generations grew up on the SE scores so we decided to use the SE mixes for the CD release” youtube.com/watch?v=YuH7uznb2bU. But now I guess they decided to release the original soundtracks for streaming. I think this is a sign of cool things to come bois

I think that the original versions of the movies are restored in 4K and will be released sometime this year. Possibly an announcement at Star Wars Celebration.

They were released on vinyl with original artwork.

I know. It’s just that my entire music collection is on CD. It’s the medium I grew up with.

Disney would be so smart to live stream a huge mystery panel where they unveil new blu-rays with updated special features, bonus commentaries, beautiful original artwork and most of all…the unaltered original Star Wars trilogy remastered in beautiful 4K. Not to mention if they made a new special edition with the offensive SE elements removed and even better CGI and models used to update matte paintings and aged effects. They could preview footage, have a panel afterwards speak about the restoration process and what it means to fans. And then just so it’s all worth it, plop on a 150 dollar price tag for the full set in its glory. And hell yah I would pay for something like that.

Please Disney…read this post and follow exactly as I instructed. You will make so much damn money and you will make us fans so damn happy.

Right, I understand. It shows that they think of the OOT as a “classic” item in their catalogue as opposed to the SE being more mainstream.

EDIT: That didn’t stop them from releasing them both on iTunes though.

It wouldn’t cost that much. The Complete Saga didn’t cost that much. I’d expect something in the 50-70 dollar retail range.

From everything I’ve heard from a variety of people that I think are reliable, I think it’ll happen in 2017. If it doesn’t happen this year then I give up.

Maybe the 40th anniversary home media release of the OT will be special editions on UHD BD and OUT on 8mm tape.

Edit : I understand vinyl is a high fidelity medium despite its age. Maybe the OUT will only be available on 35mm then.

That is if they don’t force us to buy the PT to get the special features as they did last time around.

I’d buy a $120 complete saga set to get a legitimate HD copy of the Original Trilogy, but I don’t think that PT would be a wise marketing move to package with the OT. Also, there really isn’t a “complete saga” anymore because there’s going to be so many movies.

Which is exactly why they should just give each movie its own ultimate set.

That might happen, but I honestly would prefer a box of all three. From what I’ve gathered, Empire and Jedi are done, and Star Wars is what was giving them trouble. All hearsay, but I think it’s accurate.

I remember the “saga” language getting thrown around a lot once we got the prequels.

The post-ROTJ years and pre-SEs were “The Star Wars Trilogy” - not saga.
