Good trailer.

But it doesn't change my mind about not buying it.

Rock is my type of music.

Pink Floyd. I have every officially released song and album (But not from an official source.

^^^Does the anamorphic set have the missing Leia wielding footage?
Or the TR47 set either.

And they are both the same price, right?

Why not just watch the laserdiscs if you have to change discs anyway???

Cool.

If the price isn't too outrageous, I'd imagine we'll buy one.

I won't rush out and rebuy all my DVDs though. I might rebuy some of my favorites. But DVDs are fine, and the reverse compatibility is a big plus.

DVD will be like VHS has been since DVDs came out.

DVDs will be available similarly to how VHS was even though better technology is out there.

I don't really see any reason to buy HD-DVD. My TV isn't digital, and my movies already look excellent.

If I were to construct (or have constructed by someone else

) my own 'Ultimate Edition' by combinging the O-OT and the SE, here's what I'd do:

ANH
Add only minor shots here and there (modified shots of the Falon taking off, new approach to Yavin, etc.)

ESB
Even though I still see no difference whatsoever, the new Battle of Hoth
interior shots of new Cloud City (NOT the approaching Cloud City shots. Also NOT that one shot where Chewie and the gang run by Artoo where the wall is gone.)

ROTJ
Add the celebration shots, but when it comes back to the Ewoks, they still sing as ususal.

As you can see, my Ultimate Editon would only include very minor things. What the SE *should* have been from the beggining.

My DVD burner isn't broken, as I don't have one.

It's allright, really. It's the decoder that's busted. I don't mind redownloading the ANH torrent; it's well worth it.

And thanks for the help!

Hal 9000, before you reformat your system, I suggest you partition your Hard Drive. This way you can move the ANH file to the new partition and you won't lose it when you reinstall your OS.

How do I do that?

And how much file information can I partition?

Apparently, my DVD decoder is fried.

I'm gonna have to reinstall the operating system, destroying all data.

A.K.A. I'll have to re-download the torrents!

It'll take a sweet while, but I only had ANH hope done so far anyway.

At least those pesky vertical lines will be gone.

First of all, thank you for wanting to seed ROTJ.

I use Torrentstorm as my torrent downloader client. In it, I just open the torrent file in it. If it is completed, it automatically seeds it.

For bittorrent, I'm not sure how. I would try opening the torrent file in whatever client you used, and if it's completed it should automatically start seeding it.

Thank you for wanting to seed ROTJ, as it is loading the slowest of the three on my computer at a pathetic 2 KB/s.

EDIT: Ironically enough, I was the one who posted the link to torrentbox at the officail site.

Is it possible for the average folk like me to burn Star Wars onto a blank DVD, when I only have a CD burner?

And do the whole movie on one disc?

Can I do that?

These torrents are like a dream come true.

Minus the scan lines I'm experiencing (which is my computer's fault, not the torrent's) these are excellent.

I shed a tear of joy, exactly like when the LDs were delivered to my home.

But how do I turn off these gosh-forsaken scan lines??!!!!

If these scan lines appear when I don't maximize the image, then the image is just too small to reveal them.

FYI
