Woooo! I can't wait. I'm also very shocked at how much cheaper they are on Amazon already. $89 compared to $139 is great! I'm glad I won't have to wait all the way until the holidays for this one. Pre-ordering as I type!
Wow! I'm more than a little surprised by the positive comments here. I can't wait for this boxset but I can't help but wonder is if the original 3 movies will be the original cuts or the re-release cuts. I'd love it if I could have both versions of the movies. Either way, I'm all over this like a nerd on a porn mag.
I'm guessing they won't be the original cuts. It probably would have been mentioned in the press release if that were the case. Lucas has already stated he thinks of the newer versions as the definitive ones.
Besides if they put both versions on there it would take more time. They'd have to upconvert not only the Special Editions, but also the original cuts. I doubt they'd take the time to do both when Lucas only considers one version to be the best.
That sucks big time. I'd love to revisit the originals in their original form with my daughter when she's a little older. DOn't get me wrong I really liked the recuts with the extra footage but there's a special place in my heart for what I watched as a kid.

I will be picking these up for sure! Im a huge Star Wars fan!
Glad they are finally doing the complete saga, can't wait to finally have it.
Lucas Films are the Capcom of the movie world
