Ridiculous. The OT DVD set is a fine set. It looks and sound great. It sucks in your opinion because it's not the OOT. The bonus disk has a 2 hour documentary on it with other documentaries on it as well.

JediRandy, here is the thing about that set, it was the first SW OT set on DVD so many fans were going to buy it no matter what, cause I was one of them. At that point, I was starving for any SW OT movies on DVD, and the changes were the least of my worries. But if I had my choice, of course I would prefer the O-OT.
If Lucas put out just the O-OT in 2004 on DVD, it would have sold the same amount, and probably more for all the holdout fans waiting who won't buy it. I don't think any fan of the SE would not have bought the OT DVD's in 2004, if they were just the O-OT. I mean those same fans were buying all those videos before 1997 and loved the OT just as much!
The problem is now for Lucas is fans like me who bought the SE once because we wanted the OT so badly, but wont buy any future sets without the O-OT. I have admitted here that I will buy the Sept Release even in Non-Anamorphic cause I have to have it, so now I have what I want on DVD.
The only time I will buy a SW set again, if it is Anamorphic. There will be many here who want buy the sept release, but again, I am in the middle. But if Lucas puts out a super duper 2007 OT/PT saga boxset with more changes, I have no interest, cause I already have what I want, and you will see sales plummet of O-OT fans who bought once, but not again. If Lucas puts a saga boxset in 2007 with O-OT/SE-OT/PT, then I will fork out my money.
Don't be fooled by those 2004 SE numbers, they would have been the same if it was just the O-OT.
