ok, some (like me) were planning on buying it to work from as source material for future edits or to show off a kick ass A/V system...THX/Widescreen/DTS...right?????

Wrong! No DTS is this boxset, as a matter of fact, this is his review of the sound...

In Fox’s view there is nothing wrong with the sound and they will not recall any discs. I compared the sound of this scene on the dvd with the same scene on the VHS version from 1997. I can hear no tonal differences between the lines on the latter. To me it seems like the sound of the VHS version is better than the sound of the dvd version in this particular scene. I must admit that feels rather strange.

Because of this flawed sound, I cannot give this edition of Star Wars: A New Hope more than 7 out of 10 in this category. The other two movies both receives the top score since I couldn’t hear any flaws there.


...UHHHH, that sucks...THE STAR WARS TRILOGY, A 7/10 for sound, muffled in parts, clear in others, no DTS soundtrack. HMMM. That sucks. Rock on George Lucas! I knew you were going to butcher the content but to make the sound at parts worse than VHS, awesome!
