So far there's ten characters on super smash brothers brawl, including suprises such as Snake and Pit. So who else do you think will be in this game or should be in this game? If konami got the rights to add characters to a nintendo game, then we should see Simon Belmont and the main guy from Contra.

I used a mild grain filter and converted to 16:9 anamorphic it looked so much better

How much better? Probably still worse than 99% of all DVD releases

Wait, if there are upconverter DVD players, then the whole problem of letterboxing is solved? I guess its just the principle of the thing...

Great, now I have to hae Jedi too? I was already convinced to hate the PT, but now I have to accept a cliffhanger to be a true star wars fan? Chefelf is a fan I'd like to call a 2/3 bad fan, while Im a 1/2 fan. Believe me, I can handle more "bad" movies than anyone knows.

I bet on his death; but when can any person predict the death of any human being? And will the need for another 100 million dollars give us the impossible hope of a good-looking OOT? As it had been said 500 million times, the release on the OOT in non-anamorphic is the least expected caveat for our demand for the OOT on DVD, and Lucas only did it to 1)get rid of SE DVD's at the warehouse, and 2)justify the de facto destruction of the OOT by saying there is no demand and that the best we will ever get is letterbox. Lucas has proven to me that a person can genuinely, with enough money, destroy every shred of a groundbreaking and enormously popular film trilogy. It is equivalent to burning every copy of the Godfather that you can afford. So, we might as well go into a life of piracy, become a Lucas propaganda slave, or go into some sort of rehab to wean you of the OOT like they do for drugs. I sincerely hoped that the OOT would be released on DVD, but that hope is essentially dead. Game over. You can forget seeing Han shoot first and Sebastian Shaw on your 50' HDTV.

I didn't even know that the PT sucked for each installment until I realized that people hated it. Then I wondered why did people hate it so much? The answer-everything.

That's right, because ever since Lucas wrote the first word for the draft of Episode 1 and did the first alteration for the SE that the death of the OOT was beginning. The world will not allow the last release of the OOT to be non-anamorphic, but Lucas will make that happen.

So adding hayden Christensen as Anakin at the end of ROTJ in 2004 is fixing the SE, the first version of which was reedited four years before he cast Hayden to be Anakin? That shows about as much logic as adding Justin Timberlake to replace Michael Jackson in Thriller; and yet, we still have no clear, logical explanation of why Lucas added Hayden other than this left-handed expanation of "force ghosts" that was never explained in episode III as promised.

As I said time and time again, there will never be a release of the OOT in up-to-date quality, and the release of deleted scences and all that good features will never be released for eons to come. Our only choice is to get used to four bars or suffer with bootlegs. This whole non-anamorphic "curse" has even made me bitter about HD TV's that are becoming commonplace nowadays. Time and time again, it only proves to me that Lucas wants every shred of the OOT destroyed for over 15 years. The 30th anniversary has now become a time of despair and bitterness. The bottom line is SW is dead.

We want a proper transfer of the OOT + deleted scenes & vintage documentaries. Is that too much to ask?

No that isn't too much to ask. All Im saying is that this 07 box set that will be the "holy grail" of SW releases will never happen; you have the better chance of creating a perpetual motion machine than to see a proper release of the OOT.

But look, the boxset would have been a MAJOR dissapointment; and the fact that the OT was released tree times in three years, there should be at least some spacing between DVD releases! Sorry folks, but we have no choice but to suffer letterbox versions of the OOT unaltered. Let me ask you this question: do we want the SW boxset because of some hope to get a proper transfer of the OOT, or is this something we really want?

Didn't Rodriguez and Tarantino work together on Sin City? And wasn't that film obscenely violent, or does Frank Miller have a very warped mind?

Im 20 and think one can never outgrow SW, I think the reason people believe you can become too old for SW is because of Ewoks.

I think the whole concept of a SW TV series is just surreal for me; but Lucas has to do work because those independent films he wanted to work on for over 20 years don't exist.

So Lucas is essentially remaking the clone wars series from 2003; yeah, its illogical. And for the N64, it was an okay system, but off topic
