You mean the unaltered original trilogy in a GOOD transfer?

I REALLY wouldn't count on OOT being released in an all 6 movie set. Thus why I picked the 2006 set up. Knowing Luca$ he'll do with that format as he done with this, wait untill it's about to die, then continue again and again.

I'm sorry, but country bashing is fucking dumb. Yes he corrected your typo, but you don't have to insult ones country. I guess in Vigo's mind, we're all fat, lazy and ignorant. We're sorry for gracing you with our presence, Vigo. Edit- Ah hell, I think I figured out George Lucas' problem, this entire time, he's so stubborn. He was born in the USA, that must be it holy hell. We've figured it out, once he steps foot in Germany. He'll love th OOT and the prequals will cease to exist.

That would be great, but I wouldn't keep my hopes up sadly.

So I just got the legal ones just in case, as we all know how Lucas is.

Edit- I don't have a DVD-R either, so fan edits, ect are out of the question.

My anus is bleeding from the price drop, but eh. I'm not too angry, just enjoying the originals even with the quality, ect. Still the same films and I don't have to see Hayden in Episode 6 ect, ect.

Seen many more of my childhood movies go unloved, Star Wars should have the premium treatment of all versions. If there HAS to be a changed one, atleast make the originals just as good visually and sound. But like alot of my favorites, those will always be in for making a couple bucks. Just like say one of my favorites, Friday the 13th 1, in the boxed set, they give us the cut version, instead of full uncut which is still tame by todays standards. And just put the uncut scenes in a freaking bonus disc.

I agree, and it's sad that we have to.

Didn't mean to downplay, I just think to me it's a situation of "It's bad, but could be a hell of alot worse." Which also shouldn't have to happen either.

yeah, but its more fun to bitch and moan for years... carry on.

And what is YOUR purpose hear on this forum? Obviously bitching and moaning about our bitching and moaning.

Sorry, didn't mean to offend. And I do agree that they deserve better 100%, but, I just think we're lucky to get them in any release at all. Thus why I've sold off many of my sets and collections. Lucas is a stubborn ass, and most likely won't give in to giving the O-OT work for a PROPER release without putting it with a "better" edited version purposely to say that we got them for "his" versions. Edit- Bah, quoted the wrong thing. Oh well. That was to you Vigo, sorry again.

I will continue to watch my O-OT vhs tapes, and the "bonus" disc in the 2006 release. Yeah the 2006 one was badly done. But I just like to have them on a legal legit dvd. And I have a regular old tv, so I'm not bothered by non-anamorphic, laserdisc transfer ect. Edit- By the way, the lack of touching up if anything gives me the whole nostalgic feel of watching the O-OT. Which is what everyone is screaming for.

Never heard of this luke missing the hook scene untill visiting here. None of my O-OT versions have it.

So far, only the O-OT VHS set, '97 SE set and I sold off my 2004 DVD set to buy the 2006 ones. ( I know the 2006 one is badly done, I just wanted the originals somehow in a legal format.)
