Idea: My Star Wars Ultimate Collector's Set

 (Edited)

Mainly a collector’s Set with a big focus on 1-6 but 7-9, Rogue One, Solo, and what ever the 3rd spin of film would be should have extra features to round out it being an ultimate set. What I mean by extras is it’ll include behind the scenes and extra material, old and new alike. Now what does my main focus on 1-6 involve well it really involves in a Gary Oldman fit of rage, EVERYTHING. In my mind it’s a Blu Ray set but we can go the 4k route being that’s the thing. From the Lucasfilm Vault we clean up everything with a new pristine picture with all the films, We can go other routes if necessary being my idea involves the original theatrical version of each film and every official release. Other Ideas meaning like what Harmy has done to make an unaltered original. No altering film tint involved , original colors but brought out to where it shines on your tv. All will have DTS or if possible Dolby ATMOS being that’s a new thing sound lovers crave. I would like original home video tracks as well like a remastered mono mixes and remastered as well. Harmy’s OT gave me an appreciation on the home video release tracks. This a dream and me assuming if I were an executive for Lucasfilm and or Disney and had access to the archive for this release.

What the set should offer:

Star Wars/Star Wars Episode IV - A New Hope
With the original version you have the option of the Original Crawl or the 1981 Re-Release Crawl
you also have the 1997, 2004 and 2011 options as well.

Star Wars Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back
1980, 1997, 2004 and 11. As a special bouns the 70mm version print remastered with the other effects and altering dialogue intact. I don’t know much except for what I read and heard on the 70mm release audience tape.

Star Wars Episode VI - Return Of The Jedi
1983, 1997, 2004, and 2011

Star Wars Episode I - The Phantom Menace
1999, 2001, and 2011. Maybe for good measure being we had a theatrical release the 3d version included as well. Even though in my opinion it didn’t look to 3d to me.

Star Wars Episode II - Attack Of The Clones
35mm, DLP (DVD 02), Imax version 2002, and the 2011 version.

Star Wars Episode 3 - Revenge Of The Sith
2005 with option with wipe or without wipe for The Emperor’s arrival, and the 2011 version.

Star Wars Episode VII - The Force Awakens
2015 regular format and 2d Imax also 3d regular format and 3d Imax.

Rogue One - A Star Wars Story
2016 2d and 3d as option.

Star Wars VII - The Last Jedi
2017 2d and 3d as option.

Solo - A Star Wars Story
2018 2d and 3d as option.

Star Wars Episode IX - The Rise Of Skywalker
This is by assuming J.J Abrams as a filmmaker would have as options.
2019 regular format and 2d Imax also 3d regular format and 3d Imax.
(Update info on formats options coming soon)

Blank - A Star Wars Story (TBD)
This is assuming but it’ll be the the tie end of 12 films with multiple version the the 3rd line of spin off films together.
2020 2d and 3d as option.
(I want to hold out hope we will see another Spin Off film in the coming future so this will remain as a TBD until some time when more info comes or no spin theatrical release comes. If it is the case The Star Wars Stories sperate set will just be a duo instead of trilogy set)

Bonus Features.
Each film will have it’s separate bouns features either as the film it was apart on same movie disc or only IV-VI, I-III, VII-IX and The Star Wars Stories on their on seprate trilogy bonus disc. Each will have previous released documentaries, commentaries, deleted scenes, trailers and more extras upscaled in HD in their original formats with brand new documentaries, commentaries, and deleted scenes and new extras.

This is just a dream of mine and I hope one day we can enjoy every version of Star Wars like we can with Blade Runner and other various films. It’ll be preserved for future generations it can be something nostalgia for all Star Wars fans alike. I know not everyone loves everything Star Wars so I would love for fans to have the option on Original Trilogy Box Set, Prequel Trilogy Box Set, Sequel Trilogy Box Set, and Star Wars Stories Spin Off Box Set. All individual box sets will include their specific extras. In a time were most of the fandom is split I feel this is something we all could come together on and be excited for, if it were to ever happen. I like to have a discussion below and get your take on the idea of my Ultimate collector’s set. Very much would like to hear from you. 😃

This sounds really goddamn amazing man! I don’t think Disney would do a set to this scale for cost and production reasons, but we can always try to create something like this ourselves and request Disney to create a set like this.

I’ve gone batshit several times over for the sake of historical preservation…

Just wanted to mention that there were definitely changes to TESB for its Blu-Ray. The '04 and '11 versions are not identical.

If I had some gum, I’d chew a hole into the sun…

Really Schorman ? I never notice any changes between the DVD and blu Ray. I’m not saying your wrong but I’m curious now. I’ll look up those changes.

Well one can dream. I appreciate the feedback. As big of a company Disney is they can afford to spare no expense. I think it’ll bring a lot of fans together and it’ll give the opportunity to relive memories and share with others. Star Wars is Star Wars and is something special to a lot of people.

The transition between the shot of Obi-Wan and Threepio in the cockpit of Padme’s ship to the shot of Anakin’s mechanical hand clawing at the ground before the Emperor arrives to pick him up and Vaderize him is a wipe in the theatrical cut and on the Blu-Ray, but on the DVD it’s a hard cut.
