Big Star Wars News At Comic-con - Blu-ray Forum

ebrown · 06-07-2009, 05:41 PM

I was recently watching the E3 coverage on G4 and they said big SW news to be announced. Does anyone think that George Lucas might be releasing the saga on Blu Ray?

No. I think it will be about the live action series he wants to create

Interesting. As much as I want this...it's probably something else. Let's wait and see.

I seriously doubt it as well, would definitely be some of the best news ever though.

And probably shatter Blu sales.

Yeah it would. That would make The Dark Knight look like Denis The Menace being released on Blu- Ray.

I would agree. SW is the #1 movie series in the history of film (at least for me).

Maybe collectively but I doubt it will do better than Dark Knight. Catalog releases can't touch new release numbers. I was a huge Star Wars fan once upon a time (even went to the first ever Convention in Denver before Phantom Menace was released) but I probably won't buy these on blu.

Not until they're about $10 a pop.

I disagree. Many people hold the originals with high regards. Look at the sales on DvD. People want this on High Def and will buy these in plenty on Blu.

Ski31 · 06-07-2009, 05:56 PM

And I am pretty sure Star Wars was released on DVD it broke records for most units sold...when it was available as a pre-order.
If that tells you anything, a Blu-Ray release would destroy any record

Which release?

I'll wait for the numbers to prove me right. That is, if it ever gets released. It won't be the highest seller of all time on blu.

STARSCREAM · 06-07-2009, 06:03 PM

Oh I hope it's the blu-ray announcement.
Probably gonna be about the live action series though.

Ski31 · 06-07-2009, 06:05 PM

When is this news supposed to be announced?

GreenScar · 06-07-2009, 06:06 PM

Comicon is the last weekend in July in San Diego.

Tru2theBlu · 06-07-2009, 06:06 PM

I am scared to see how much the Star Wars set costs when it is released, because I will not be able to refuse to buy it.

krazyclown · 06-07-2009, 06:08 PM

comiccon starts july 23 i think

i think star wars will sell at an insane pace once released....but then drop off tremendously because almost everyone that wants it will buy it around release

i'd say they have a chance at topping Dark Knight's numbers, but i wouldn't say for certain seeing as how many skeptical fans there are that won't buy the first release at all and will wait for the "ultimate super-duper collectors set THIS IS THE REAL DEFINITIVE EDITION" version

At the time it will be.
