This is the title of the feature length documentary on the up-coming DVD set. This Sunday on A&E, Star Wars: Empire of Dreams. Is this the same thing? Does anybody know?

and there is this interesting bit regarding Empire of Dreams :

Quote
You actually get to see the original version of the opening crawl, sans the Episode IV - A New Hope tag (and it will give you chills to see, believe me).

Yes, that's right! We will be able to make a real Star Wars bootleg with the original text crawl.

No we won't because it won't be anywhere near DVD quality.

It will look like a cam bootleg.

Cool... The original opening crawl is like, the Holy Grail of SW fans, as it was the first thing altered in the movie...

“Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.” — Nazi Reich Marshal Hermann Goering

Small correction, the Original Opening crawl is in surprisingly good quality.

I was also surprised by how fast the text comes up... the word "Star Wars" hasn't even left the screen yet!
