Star Wars Episode 1 Release Date?

[HelloMoto]

I'm interested in purchasing only episode 1 of the Star Wars saga as it is my favorite and I see that by itself, there is no release date but it is included in some packaged ones along with episode 2 and 3 which I really don't ever plan to buy.

Any idea when this might be released stand alone?

I'm usually not a fan of these but....

Might get released as a 3D Blu-ray someday, I suspect. Not sure it would be by itself though. But if you're getting Episode 1, why not 2 and 3? I understand not everyone is a completist, but these films are kind of a package deal. They're known as the prequel trilogy...

Wait, did you say Episode 1 is your favorite of the saga? I need to sit down for a minute.

This is the best troll thread ever.

You can get the first 3 for $30 used on Amazon. Figure $10 each and that's a pretty good deal. I'll withold the obligitory episode 1 put down.

I'm going to assume you mean the first film that was made.

Whether or not Episode 1 gets released by itself all depends on if Fox wants to release them individually or. I'd imagine this will happen around the time of Episode 7. Fox is gonna wanna milk these movies all they can before they lose the rights.

I assume not anytime soon since it's once again included on the prequel trilogy re-release.

It's sad to see such pointless, intolerant and condescending comments over a different opinion which is no less valid or right than yours.

This. I feel like an imbecile just for liking Ep. 1, but I do... people need to relax and stop thinking that their opinions are fact.

I wish we could finally get the 3D release on blu-ray. I've been waiting since it came out, and it's too bad they delayed the Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith 3D especially considering they would have been coming out in just a few weeks.

Fact: opinions are not fact.

Fact: message boards are for voicing opinions as well as other information.

I have admitted here that I like all the Star Wars films. I've only expressed that I don't relate to someone who claims Episode 1 to be their favorite, albeit with condescension in my tone. My apologies. I didn't realize that making fun of someone who is in love with one of the prequels is akin to racism.

I stand by my "wait, what?" comment. because the OP makes it sound like he only watches that film. Whether one likes the original trilogy, the prequel trilogy, or both, I've never heard anyone say they only like one film in a trilogy and doesn't want to watch the others. That's like saying one likes the first few chapters of a novel but doesn't care to read the rest. My comment wasn't intolerant, it was registering confusion.

Well you know what they say when you assume....

But yes I've seen the whole saga and while episodes 4, 5 and 6 are good in their own right, I still enjoyed Episode 1 the most. Not a troll thread, I promise you. I like the movies I like and I really don't care whether people think my taste in movies is shit compared to theirs.

Jar Jar Binks is quite ridiculous but no movie is perfect. But there are so many other reasons that movie is amazing.

I think its just due to the fact that Episode 1 not commonly liked (in fact its commonly hated )

It is always interesting to find someone who likes E1.

I actually LOVE Episode 1. Sure, there are parts I dislike (like Anakin "accidentally" blowing up the command ship --- "let's try rolling, that's a good trick... whooooaaaaaaahhhhh" --- it would have been much better in my opinion if he would have been as confident in the dogfight as he was in the podrace, but whatever).

That said, there is a LOT to love. First and foremost I love the almost perfect mix of practical effects with CGI. Of the prequels, Ep 1 LOOKS the most like Star Wars. Eps 2 & 3 look good, but they are so CGI'd that they almost don't fit in with the others. Ep 1 doesn't have that problem. Second, the Darth Maul / Qui Gon / Obi Wan fight is the best saber duel of the series. The Pod Race is awesome. I love Coruscant.

It's true that Jar Jar is annoying, but I almost see him as the C-P3O figure of this trilogy, and in that vein, he's not too bad. I truly believe that if Eps 4, 5, & 6 came out today... people would HATE 3P0 almost as much as they hate Jar Jar.

Kudos to the OP for not being "trendy"

That, and when Anakin says, "Now this, is Pod-Racing!" while flying the Naboo StarFighter...
WTF!
NO it isn't, its flying a spaceship!
Dumb kid!

Not any dumber than anything you see in a Resident Evil movie.
