At least the 1997 Special Editions were clearly labeled as Special Editions; these are just being referred to as 'The Star Wars Trilogy.' Anyway, someone on this site provided a link to a site that got ahold of the trailer somehow, and I downloaded it and watched it. It is fairly misleading...nothing mentioned about changes or anything. They're relying on nostalgia and digital transfers to sway buyers. Heck, I'll admit it...it started to sway me, and I just got my original version bootlegs from Rikter yesterday, which are very solid copies, so it had nothing to do about his DVDs.
They don't have to say this isn't something. Thats like a slab of pork needs a label like this isn't to be used as dishwashing detergent. I hope if anyone buys these expecting them to be the originals and is disipointing I hope it teaches them to research a product before they buy it.
