Thanks for the link to that review... funny and informative stuff. I especially liked his comments about the packaging art:
It's a terrible painting. And all the art inside is like that, too. You ever get one of those crazy religious pamphlets with the paintings of Jesus holding hands with a variety of ethnic children, but the text is all about how you're going to burn in hell for all eternity? It's llike the same guy.

Who didn't just buy the two trilogy sets and saved himself at least $10? Strange, but at least Sluggo benefited.TV's Frink said:

OK, I just bought the bonus discs from a friend who didn't want them.
A friend who wanted the movie discs but not the bonus discs? Whhhaaaaaaaaaaaaa?
For sure. He's content with what I'm calling the Hunchback Ghost release, and I'm happy with the bonus discs and the rest. Now only if I had time to watch them.

Ya, I'd rather see stuff like this than what's on the damn BR's.
I do not fear the Dark Side as you do.
Ha ha, awesome:

DVDactive's review of the ANH blu-ray is up now - http://www.dvdactive.com/reviews/dvd/star-wars-episode-iv-a-new-hope3.html
Like the 2004 DVD, Star Wars seems to have far too much red boosting. The sand on tatooine and skin tones really look off. Hideous really.

Finally a truthful review. I applaud it!
I rather like the DVDActive reviews. Thank goodness for common sense! Although it still suffers a tiny bit from the "It's Star Wars" syndrome...
A Goon in a Gaggle of 'em
Well, you know, it is STAR WARS, or at least something with STAR WARS in the title ;-)
I agree, those DVDactive reviews are pretty good.
So in reading a bunch of reviews, it seems like the general opinion is...
-Audio: mostly top notch
-Video: wildly inconsistent
-New Commentaries: fairly interesting
-Deleted Scenes: meh on the prequels, pretty cool for ot (although not great quality)
-Other extras: Some good stuff but could have been much better
FINAL VERDICT: A MUST BUY DUE TO THE INCLUSION OF AN EXTRA RIC OLIE SCENE

Please include in TRM with the best new bluescreen effects you can manage
Question: I have the opportunity to buy the BD set from someone on Craigslist for a discounted price. It's a bit cheaper, and Lucasfilm doesn't get my money. Should I do it?
If you absolutely need it, that's the only way I'd recommend it, for what that's worth.

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.
Here is a german news article about blu ray sales charts in germany:
http://www.mediabiz.de/video/news/kaufcharts-star-wars-mit-fulminantem-blu-ray-start/310059
The complete box immediately place itsself on Top 1 of the blu ray charts. The OT box hits Top 20, while Prequel Trilogy is not in the Top 20 at all.
These are only the numbers for germany, where Lucasfilm really fixed some major audio issues that have been there since 1997.
Apparently netflix has the blu-rays. Has anybody gone that route?
Someone posted on another Bluray message board, that Star Wars Boxset finished #3 last week to Thor and X-Men.
It was from a link www.hollywoodreporter.com/new...o-1-dvd-238708

If by "forever", you mean "until he dies", I have a feeling that's exactly what he'll do. The man loves money, but I think he loves having the last laugh even more. We've badgered him for this so much and for so long that I think denying it to us has become a matter of principal to him.
After he dies, though? I have a feeling whoever takes his place will see the potential in a remastered OOT.
Also, I just read about the Twitter debacle with Katie Lucas. I won't hold a single word against her, because anyone who would take their grievances to her is an asshole to begin with. If people came on my Facebook talking shit about my old man, I'd treat them like dirt too.

^ Well, I prefer to remain optimistic. Surely we've had SOME effect, and I'm sure that any effect, no matter how small, is still felt by the higher-ups. They know we exist, and they know what we want - Lucas can't hold out forever.
I think he can, but hopefully you're right.
