Re: This Crap -- Don't you guys get it?  This is promotional.  Store sales, fliers and big stand up displays at all the major retails and electronics stores to help push the new Clone Wars travesty.  (I guarantee at least one on-disc ad when you start and a slip of paper ad inside the box).

No new extras, no new Yoda in TPM... we got a new box, and a push to see Clone Wars in theaters and on Cartoon Network.

Re: GOUT -- Mind you to be fair, the GOUT were limited edition... in the previous package.  Now you have to buy them in a BOXSET.  So that particular release was limited (like all previous last last last time to own crap.)

No-one has any reason to buy these unless they don't already own Star Wars on DVD.

Perhaps we can hope that someone will pull off an Army of Darkness Hong Kong Region 3 release of the OOT.

We can hope.

Re: Indiana Jones -- Btw, for the record, the Indy re-release was NOT a re-release with added Indy 4 promotional stuff.

There was new legitimate making-of content (but still not the deleted scenes that they have squirreled away).

Although it was shoe-horned onto fewer discs, reviews say that the compression was done better and the image was slightly sharper in places.

It wasn't a leaps and bounds improvement over the previous box, but it was an improvement.
