Strange that, as it's the first time that I've seen it.

Not hateful, just no reason to spam up the thread with repeated posts of the same thing.

Would it have been so hard for them to state if all the documentaries from the previous versions (empire of dreams, the beginning and so on) where also available?

You are right, no need to be hateful, which I did not see any of that anyways but whatever, but why post an image that has already been posted SEVERAL times? did you not see the others?

Septeber 12th Well. Probably even earlier thanks to HMV shipping early 9 times out of 10 it arrives friday or saturday before

[fgomike]

I imagine it will be the same commentaries from the DVD version. Which is ok, I guess. But the Kasdan and Williams doc will be cool.

It was a Specs list reveal. And some people had it so hyped up, it would have required the second coming to pay off.

George Lucas: "I know you're all filled with anticipation! Here he is... Jesus Christ!"

Fanboys: "....... I thought he'd be taller."

That made my day. Thank you.

Instead of just "deleted scenes" and "extended scenes", for example, there could have been a more fleshed out specific list of them. I'd like to know what the "addtional content" (aka the "and more") is supposed to be.

The details of the 6 movie discs and the 9th disc with the documentaries are pretty well fleshed out. It would have been nice to see that with the other two discs.

Granted, sure, it would probably make for a very long list, but it would still be nice to get it in full detail.

My only disapointment is the lack of a listing for "Empire of Dreams". But for all that we know, that could be part of the "and more" of the OT bonus features disc. And if not, I still have my DVD, so it's not the end of the world.

I was hoping for more news on discs 7 & 8 too, and I hope there are more making-of featurettes on two other discs, but I enjoyed this announcement. We learned more about the set, that's all I was waiting for.

And you do realize most of the original work is still in the films, right? There's only a few tweaks.

The only outright replacements was the cheap Wolfman mask in the Cantina and the crappy puppet of Sy Snootles in RoTJ.

Thank you Beast. Yeah, that's the thing, George didn't change all that much. Granted, the Greedo and Anakin's ghost changes may've been much, but I'll risk my neck and say that the Greedo change makes Han more of a badass, as he keeps a straight face with a blaser bolt exploding next to his head when most people would go "Oh s*&%". It makes him a cocky, coldhearted punk, which he loses as cares more about the rebels. I'm okay with it.

As for Anakin's ghost...I like the prequel and Hayden does tie the two together. Yeah, I miss Sebastian, but Hayden is the one who took most of the journey of Anakin turning into Vader, so I feel (and I know people disagree) that Hayden coming back makes the finale more touching for those watching the films in order. Like it or not, the prequels are part of the story, so there's nothing we can do about it.

Not as cool as the two trilogy sets, but that's a nice piece of art too and it does a great job of telling what the complete saga is about. I like it. I have two. I may like the two trilogy sets art better, but I want all six films and the last disc.

Looks fake/amateur. Is that the confirmed art?

Edit: oh

[cinemaphile]

Once the video stops, is there a way to restart it again after more has loaded without having to watch everything all over again???

[kemcha]

The screenshot I posted is from the actual flash trailer playing on the Maythe4th website. My screenshot hasn't been blown up higher the the actual resolution. Other posted images have the image blown up so that the image is distorted.

Wish people wouldn't violate the original resolution of the image.

And, with 200 people posting, who has time to read through dozens of pages of messages to see who posted what image.

The way this thread is moving so fast lots of people think they are the first to report it. As it may not be the case, no need to 'layeth the smackdown' on them for it as while they type about 10 posts go up. Cant' be helped today, so you (and others) will just have to deal with it.

[fgomike]

Did we really need a short documentary on Banthas? Poo Doo!!

Overall, I like what I'm seeing, but seriously, does Europe and other countries have to get it 4 days before we do? WTF!

A few tweaks? LOL. The attack on the Death Star alone had a shitload of CGI replacement.

Well, new releases are always on a Monday here. Better than to have to wait 2 days
