I don't get why people think just because a movie is rated higher by the MPAA, it will be a better movie. Just because it's more violent doesn't make it better.


I DISAGREE. VIOLENCE MAKES A MUCH BETTER MOVIE...LOL

I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO GET MY HANDS ON THE SET A WHOLE WEEK EARLY. SO, HERE IS MY REVIEW ON THE SET...

I WOULD LIKE TO START OFF BY SAYING THAT THE MENUS ON EVERY DISK ARE AWESOME. FROM THE MAIN MENU TO THE OPTIONS MENU THEY ROCK.

ANH: THE NEW ROTOSCOPING OF THE LIGHTSABERS WAS DECENT. THERE IS ONE EXCEPTION TO THIS. THE SCENE ON THE FALCON WHEN LUKE IS PRACTICING. ONLY HALF OF THAT SCENE GOT THE NEW ROTOSCOPE TREATMENT, AND TO TOP IT OFF THE SABER NOW HAS A GREENISH-BLUE HUE TO IT INSTEAD OF THE CORRECT SHADE OF BLUE. I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED. GREEDO STILL SHOOTS FIRST, BUT HAN SHHOTS BACK FASTER. IT'LL TAKE A LITTLE GETTING USED TO, BECAUSE THEY SHIFTED HAN OVER DIGITALLY TO MAKE IT APPEAR THAT GREEDO WOULD HAVE HIT HIM OTHERWISE WHICH I THINK MAKES THE SCENE WORK BETTER. JABBA LOOKS WAY BETTER NOW, BUT STILL NOT PERFECT. I GUESS I COULD LIVE WITH IT.

ESB: THE SOUND STILL WAS SYNCHED UP WITH THE PICTURE IN THE SCENE WHEN LUKE ESCAPES FROM THE WAMPA'S LAIR. THE NEW TRANSMISSION OF THE EMPEROR TO VADER WAS JUST PLAIN HORRIBLE. THE CONCEPT WAS GREAT, BUT THE EXECUTION WAS LACKING. IT LOOKED TO ME LIKE THEY POURED PUTTY OVER IAN'S FACE. THE SCENE WAS COMPLETELY REWRITTEN AS WELL. I DID LIKE THE REWRITE, BUT IAN WAS MISSING THE INFLICTION THAT CLIVE HAD WHEN PERFORMING THE SCENE. THERE WAS NO EMOTION. LUKE'S SCREAM HAS BEEN REMOVED !!! NO LONGER IS THERE A RETOOLED SCREAM FOR LUKE WHEN HE LETS HIMSELF PLUNDGE DOWN INTO THE ABYSS.

ROTJ: NOT MUCH HAS CHANGED HERE. AS IN ESB THE JEDI SPIRITS HAVE MORE COLOR AS OPPOSED TO THE BLUISH SHIMMERING HUE OF OLD. LUKE'S HOLO IMAGE AT JABBA'S PALACE EVEN HAS MORE COLOR. IT NO LONGER MATCHES WITH THE SW HOLOGRAPHS THROUGHOUT THE SERIES. IT WAS KIND OF A NICE LITTLE NOVELTY TO HAVE HAYDEN AS ANAKIN'S JEDI SPIRIT, BUT MR. SHAW'S SHOULD HAVE BEEN LEFT INTACT.

COMMENTARY FOR THE SET WAS LACKING ALSO. JUST WHEN YOU WANTED TO HERE GL'S EXPLAINATION FOR THE "NEW" CHANGES YOU GET BEN BURTT DRAGGING ON ABOUT HOW HE CAME UP WITH THE SOUND FOR THE SCENE OR HOW NOISY THE SETS WERE.

I WON'T SPOIL THE FORTH DISK FOR EVERYBODY, BUT I WILL SAY THAT THIS IS THE REASON WHY WE WILL ALL BUY THE SET.

FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE SET OR POSTS COMMENTS ABOUT MY REVIEW. I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO READING EVERYBODY'S PERSONAL REVIEWS ON THIS SET IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS.
