So We that are buying it on release day are schmucks?

Only a sith deals in absolutes.

*clarification: Some schmucks will buy it on release day.  Some cool dudes will also buy it on release day.  Didn't mean to perturb anyone.

What do people think future re-issues will be like?

Will they even happen?

Will optical disc media last long enough to justify a double dip blu-ray?

There were a number of repackaged VHS releases during the PT era and a few repackaging attempts of the DVDs.

Probably not until after all the 3D theatrical releases, I'd imagine they'll be pretty busy with this for the time being.  So if you really do want blu-ray quality Star Wars I'd get the set.  Personally, I'll wait and get it used at some point, even though it is terrible.  At least that way LFL won't get any money, just the poor schmuck who paid full price in Sept.

LOL I knew what they were, but on first glance, they reaaaally look like boobies.  Not that that's a bad thing........

Dark_Jedi's Theatrical DVDs are the best GOUT restorations you'll find.

Harmy's Partially Despecialized editions use multiple sources for the best quality while still getting rid of many of the SE changes.  He's working on a fully Despecialized collection as well; he's already done with ESB and is working on ANH.

Other than that, here's a few threads already posted on these boards (and others) that will give you the answers you're looking for:

Mr. Penguino,

Is that a pair of tits above Ric and Padme's head?

A:  Lo-o-o-o-o-ve is presh shus, shoo-doo shooby-do.

Q:  How do you way instain mother?

Watched Thor 3d last night at midnight. 

Visually, it was amazing.  Amazing fight scenes, awesome costumes and decor, beautiful imagery.  And the special effects were so freakin cool it was unreal.  The shots of the stars and galaxies and such on Asgard were just breathtaking. 

Chris Hemsworth is also awesome.  It's not Shakespeare, but I was surprised at how well he carried the movie. 

Other than that it sucked.  The story was alright, but I just never got really invested in anything enough to care about it.  Thor was an arrogant ass and all of a sudden stops being an arrogant ass and becomes the hero.   What happened to make him change?  Did I miss something? 

And the love story between him and Natalie Portman was so hamfisted I felt like I was having it shoved down my throat every time I watched a scene with her.  Which really sucks because I sorta love Natalie so I was looking forward to seeing her rock in this movie.  She was hardly in it! 

In fact, they could have taken everything about humans/Earth out of the story and it probably would have made it a much better movie.  Maybe they felt that they needed human characters and an Earth setting to make it more relatable but that's just a huge mistake.  Relatable characters aren't relatable because of where they live, but because of who they are.  And in the end, we didn't really get any of that from Thor.  It really feels like the movie was written by the entire boardroom of Marvel/Paramount instead of just Branagh and his crew.  It's like they didn't even care that it was sloppy.

I enjoyed myself, but it wasn't easy.  Still looking forward to Captain American and Green Lantern, however.

A few parts that really bugged me [SPOILER ALERT]:

His group of buddies from Asgard were pointless and dumb, and the sarcastic human chick who hung around with Portman was even more pointless.  What were they thinking?  

The scene where the giant-fire-robot-thing was tearing shit up and Thor says "I have a plan" and walks out to it, and the music starts to swell, and he says something corny and obvious about taking his life instead of theirs.  Just stupid.  Lame. 

Towards the end he addresses the S.H.I.E.L.D. guy and says something like "We fight on the same side... so... I'll join your team!"  It could've waited for the Avengers movie.  It was clearly just forced in there to make him part of the team already, but god it was so LAZY!

Then, I'm cringing just thinking about it, when he was saying goodbye to whats-her-name and said, "Deal?"  ...I wanted to vomit in my popcorn.  So, so bad.

NSFW

I'm going to see a midnight showing of Thor in 3D.  Awesomesauce.

LOL, there are a lot of people that are going to need some of these,

Why would I need this? There's not one thing worth masturbating to in this whole damn set!

I just read the past four pages to figure out what happened, when all I needed to do was read this post.  Win.

Still life ->

That'll put marzipan in your pie plate, bingo!

^ Agreed.  I was really surprised at how much I enjoyed that movie.  I'd watch it again.

I just finished watching Last Survivor's Smallville: Destiny fanedit.  He turned the first season of Smallville into a two-part miniseries sort of thing.  I don't know if any of you are fans, but even if you just like Superman in general, this was really awesome and impressive.  My full review is on the linked page.

I'd go back to 1971 and nail Frink's mom when she was still hot.

All three of those posts were totally deserving of their own post.

It's been less than a day and I already am starting to hate it...

P.S. No love, 3PS?

A very big actual lol at "congratulations Viceroy"
