All I know is when I hold the Star Wars box set, it'll probably be the happiest I've been with an entertainment purchase I've made since the day the PS3 came out.

Although the $250 Sony Headphones my wife dominated for me for my birthday this year are pretty damn sweet. :D

Your wife gave you a device that would inhibit you from hearing her?

:D

Actually she gave me a device that encourages me to stay at work and work overtime since I usually get 9-15 hrs available a week and can listen to music all day. She's evil like that!!!:cool:

Anyone know if the pre-order price will go down or turn into MSRP?

I would say it goes down some before the release at some point.

I keep wondering this myself. Or at the very least maybe Costco will have it for cheap like they do every other boxset

Sith 06-17-2011 04:02 AM

I think it'll probably drop to maybe $74.99-79.99 somewhere by release day. Not that it really matters.

It will go down even if we all wait for it after the release. Just having it will be worth it !

-RONIN- 06-17-2011 04:40 AM

Oh for sure. It's a day 1 for me no doubt. The deal hunter in me is still trying to get out..lol

Perhaps George is trying to attract more girls with the new coloring, something he'd intended to do all along??? :p

Thanks! :thumbsup: This video confirms that the films have gone through a new transfer, or at least thats what the clips from A New Hope prove.

Jump to the section of video where Vader is in his cockpit ("Stay on the the leader") and compare it to the 2004 version of the film...

http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z...ll32/vader.jpg

The colours look far more natural. The lights shining from his console are actually a shade of pink and appear more life-like, as well as the bottom-left area of his cockpit showing more detail and brightness. The blue hue is also reduced.

http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z...ll32/xwing.jpg

A less obvious comparison, but again, more detail in the X-Wing engines and and improved contrast/no crushed black.

Can't wait to see these films on my T.V, regardless of the extras/O.T vs S.Es. Their are no excuses for a poor transfer this time - the 2004 job was rushed and, apparently, Lucas only gave Lowry around 6 weeks to colour time the film. Considering how long they've been working on this new product, its shaping up to be a wonderful release day.

I hope this set does not have the same problem as the LOTR EE i just hope :ohnoes:
