I wish they kept continuity of the visual changes they made to the OT, at least then they could be taken more seriously. The rocks infront of R2 dissapear when he comes out, the new HUGE door to jabbas palace reverts to the small one from the view from inside the palace and they erased the water that squirts out of R2 when he gets zapped in front of the shield generator on Endor, yet in the wide angels the floor is clearly wet from where the water came out originally. Why go to the trouble of deleting the water squirting out then leave traces of it on the floor Pretty sloppy all in all.

I suppose they needed to leave some mess to justify going back in and doing more alteration for the next release

Still an amazing set regardless. Heres to the next one!

I've never cared for paper-based packaging. It won't age well at all, as it's far too fragile.

watching revenge of the sith now and man oh man is the sound amazing in this one. you can hear every little sound and effect, dialog is much clearer and crisp. the detailing on obi wans jedi outfit

cgi looks great!! i am 125% happy with this so far.

i checked out a few things that alot of ppl complained about. ewok eye blink, vader NO in jedi, no big deal to me. infact i thought it added more feeling to the scene with vader saying no like he meant it. no biggie for me...

does anyone know where the added bonus scene is of luke in a cave making his lightsaber in ROTJ? i thought i heard or read that was in this set???

I'm having a lot of fun watching the extras today, particularly the spoof collection. I am also very happy with the packaging, very nice looking.

watching the opening scene of a new hope when the giant spaceship is chasing the princess. This blu is amazing. I haven't had this experience watching the film since I saw it in the theater in 77.

The discs are going to be just fine, it's the cardboard pages you have to be careful with.
I think the disc holders are far more forgiving than the ones used in the alien set.

You seem to be able to slide the discs in and out far easier.

Disc 8, it's the 2nd bonus disc. Just pick Episode VI and Deleted & Extended scenes on Tatooine.

after all what do people expect from employee at walmart . walmart pay structure is simple "we would pay you less if we could but it is against the law"- Sam Walton lol

This would be funnier if it wasn't so true.

No, Greedo shoots a fraction of second sooner. His shot hits the wall next to Han while Han's shot is still flying. But Greedo's shot is well within Han's reaction time, meaning that Han only would have realized that Greedo shot at him when he already had taken his own shot. So technically both shot first.

John Williams score is no longer buried under sound effects and everything is beautifully clear.
I truly feel sorry for OCD people in this room. Despite what nitpicks you may have, there is still no debating that a finer looking version of these films has never been made available, and that is including the original theatrical run. So why ***** and moan over why these films aren't what you think they should be? Instead why not celebrate another great day to be a Star Wars fan?

Yes because it really isnt simultaneous then.

edit:
col.kurtz said greedo still 1st (in a way).

They're all XLs. Mine's an XL. They're 100% Heavy Duty Fruit of the Loom cotton too. I'm using mine for bumming around in.

Default The SMELL of the Packaging!

The Packaging SMELLS like I imagine Jurassic Park would, when you first walk in to the brand spankin' NEW Dinosaur Theme Park -- before the T-Rex takes over!!!

Anyone else agree?

Kinda like a new theme park smell, right?

I blame both employee and employer equally for an employee's incompetence but I blame an individual 100% for their bad attitude.
