The circle will never be complete. DVD release of the OT, done. HD-DVD or Bluray release of the OT... not until a new format emerges like Crystaline Holographic HD in say like 10 years. He'll release the set just as HD or Bluray is at it's end and then we'll want it in the new format. I'd like to quote Mr. Burns at this time if I may...

What Fatned in the General Discussion forum posted disturbs me greatly:

" I hate to be a negative nancy and piss on everyone's parade, but Lucas isn't doing this because of overwhelming demand, internet petitions, or because he's suddenly been possessed by Shebastian Shaw. It's simply a business decision. Remember this little tidbit:

"The other movie, it’s on VHS, if anybody wants it. ...[] ... it doesn’t really exist anymore."

His lawyers must have shit enough bricks to build a great wall along the mexican border. That statement would make it almost impossible to sue anybody for copying/distributing copies of the real Star Wars. How could he claim damages resulting from someone copying something that "doesn't really exist anymore?" The release of "the other movie" on dvd will change that. He'll be able to claim lost revenues for this dvd. He'll be able to sue anyone copying and/or distributing copies of TRSW and he'll win in court.

He probably wasn't lying when he said the OOT would never be released on dvd. His lawyers on the other hand, after he made the foolish statement quoted above, obviously let him know only an idiot would disown a piece of work that is such a huge money maker. A good lesson for all artists, don't ever disown a piece of work no matter how much you despise it, it may cost you considerable $$ down the road.

On the positive side, at least you get the OOT on dvd like you've always wanted! Too bad you have to buy the crap versions too! But Lucas is still the selfish fat hack he's always been. (Gee, can you tell I still hate his fatnecked guts?)

Now that we'll be getting the OT on DVD, wouldn't it be funny if some fan ripped it and decided to make their own SE version of the SWT? Think of all the great 3D software we have at our fingertips and what vision we could add to the films. Copyright infringement never tasted so sweet!

That's an excellent point there Bomma. If anything, if the picture quality of the DVD's are better than the LD transfers, They'll just be used to make a superior "Classic Edition".

So glad I didn't buy any of the Star Wars DVD's. You're all dogs lapping at Lucas' tit. Nah, I'm just kidding... as I will be too when these hit the stores. Wouldn't it be funny if their exhaustive search was actually of the LD bootlegs from here. Have the X0 masters been stolen recently?

I'm with you guys on this one. I don't have the patience for d/ling. All I'm really looking for is the Citizen set of the OT. I've got several SL printable DVD-Rs I can supply.

In the spirit of the holidays I payed forward three copies of MagnoliaFan’s excellent edits (hope they get to you all soon). I was fortunate enough to get a copy of the Cowclops v2 for my troubles. Sadly the discs arrived all scratched and unplayble. My DVD-Rom couldn’t even read them either. So close to seeing the OT again. I don’t blame Number20 for his generous trade, I think the envelope might have been opened by customs and resealed. Ah well… someday when the torrents are ripe.

If anyone could hook me up with a Cowclops V 2.0 set of the OOT or the Dark Jedi Laser Disc copy of the OOT set (W/S), I can send MagnoliaFan's edits of The Phantom Menace (V 1.0 I think) and Attack of the Clones. Please PM if we can work something out. Happy Holidays everyone!

P.S. I live in Canada if case you're wondering about distance. Cheers!

I wonder if you could bring in the Japan transfers into Digital Fusion, mask out the subtitles and re-encode the vob? If I had these, I could try it at work sometime. Wait, when these are burned in you mean they're over the actual images and not on widescreen black. Hmm... that sucks.

Here in Canada on our Global station, there was this halarious Apprentice commercial. I still think my friend and I were imagining it, so hopefully someone out there can shed some like on it for me. It's basically Donald saying to Chewbacca that he's fired because no one can understand what he's saying. You see Chewie distrought with his suitcase outside his hotel room. I couldn't stop laughing. What has the SW universe become when it's being mocked by another pop culture?

Does anyone have any scans of the faces set (preferably textless - which I doubt exist) from the laserdiscs? I was trying to clone out the ones from the vhs tapes and laserdisc ones have the titles further to the left. I don't mind if the text is cut off so long as the face is intact.

I was replying to another thread and in my haste wrote Satyr Wars instead of Star Wars. Now this brought me to a silent chuckle as it would make a really lame spoof. A Rebellion of Satyr's fighting to reclaim their right to have sex from the tyranny of a feminist Nymph Empire. Okay... so I'm going to look into finding a girlfriend now.

When at the stores yesterday looking at all the Star Wars displays, there are still a lot of OT boxsets out there for purchase. It still strikes me as odd that they're releasing another boxset in December. What if as a strange marketing ploy, it is the OOT, but they're not saying it is? Yes, a fool can dream...

I feel your pain man, but anyone that orders DVD's from Canada will most often get that often due to Quebec's bi-lingual laws. Ironic that we have to have our products in English and French when we have a province that wishes to seperate from us. If anything, our country's two main languages should be English and Manderin now as I believe we have more asians in our country. Hmm... we should try and get them to mandatory learn French to immigrate here. That'll throw them for a loop.

No, this isn't meant in any way a racist remark, I'm just being excesively sarcastic. Sadly, this will discourage others from buying our products (even when they're cheaper) do to this. My only real suggestion is to print out custom covers.
