I know they won't be perfect, but they can be made to be pretty close.

Wouldn't it be simpler to just burn your LDs to DVD directly instead of taking all these extra middle steps?

It is most definitely very crowded. There is no question about it. And I've always wondered how much energy these guys could possibly have to keep going that far into the future. I would assume that Han's age at the time of ROTJ is supposed to be about 35 Earth years. Plus another 25 for the NJO. We're talking that he's pulling Jack Nicholson's age and screaming his way through an asteroid field with his good old reflexes not hampered at all by age.

BigMike, I'm standing firm. No SE DVDs for me.

I pray that question was directed to Luke and his meeting with Ron Jeremy and not me and my meeting with Michael Moore.

Are you referring to how many different editions have been released on VHS/DVD/LD? If so, GundarkHunter or Rebel Scumb would be best at answering this question, I think.

This statement alone shows how little you know about George. He's planning an ultimate version. The SE was just another step in the process. It has been said over and over again.

Just because you're obviously too young to remember the original movies and the SEs were the first time you saw them in theaters doesn't mean your version is any more important than the versions we do remember seeing in theaters.

And, no, you won't "get through" to us. Obviously this site is not for you. Go off to your little non-OT fantasy world and leave us alone. You're not welcome here.

Nice thought guys, but you should all know that when you return an opened DVD/CD/Computer Game, all they give you is a new copy that is sealed. And, sometimes, they will even take that cellophane wrap off the outside to ensure you can't try to return this replacement copy as a new one.

You gotta love the irony in that one, don't ya?

I did the Hyperspace tour and checked out the Clone Wars animated stuff as well as old issues of Bantha Tracks. There is some worthwhile content on there, but I don't think I'd fork over the cash for a membership.

The best piece of news I've heard this week. Thanks. And I'm not about to give up yet.

Did I ever mention that I met Michael Moore a couple years back? I think I did, but I'm not sure.
