I don't think it's a good price. The Complete Saga offers about the same price in a much nicer packaging. Although this set comes with DVDs, which I don't think it's good.

One thing that annoyed me the most with this Blu-ray release is the edits that were made to the films, especially in Attack of the Clones. If these same edits remain in these new DVDs, then I think it's better to remain to the original DVD releases.

[Time Wizard]

Cool covers but I already feel like I own enough versions on DVD lol. Not to mention VHS...

[rexcrk]

The only way they could get me to bite on this is if the DVDs included were proper anamorphic widescreen releases of the original trilogy.


But I know that's not happening, so no thanks lol.

Fox pulling a Warner. Let's re-release the exact same discs and material, but let's throw in a DVD so the packaging looks slightly different.

Yup. What a waste.

They will lose the distribution rights by 2020, it's only natural that they 'milk' this as much as they can. Not to mention that there is always demand for it.

[Timerider84]

You might want to wait until Episodes VII-IX to be released and buy the 18 disc Ultimate set in 2020.

Attack of the Clones on the Complete Saga Blu ray was Edited??

And useless color 'correction'.

[MifuneFan]

Fox is notorious for repackaging the same movies. They do it all the time. At least with Warner, they wait till some Anniversary, and there's usually a chance of getting some new extras.

It would have been nice if they included the bonus discs for each respective trilogy.

I expect we'll see more of this as it seems to never end with certain titles.

Just let Fox enjoy the time they have left with the subsequent ANH films (less a miracle happens and they renew distribution). They'll always have ANH, Disney can never take that away from them.

Question is what will the DVD discs be; the Blu-ray versions, the debut DVD versions, or to some consent the OOT for the IV-VI set?

I wouldn't mind if they included the DVD extras (not going to happen, I know). They were among the best packed DVDs as far as extras goes.

[nousefouraname]

Damn. I'm such a sucker. Assuming these are amarays, I love the packaging on this. I might well buy it, take the dvd copies out, and put the special features discs in from the saga pack. I hated the book they put out.

With 6 discs included, it's highly unlkely to be an amaray case release. It's either a digipack, or a disc slit version like the Complete Saga release.

If it's a digibook, Warners will have saved me some cash. ha. So, I suppose I'm half rooting for that. But, it could be 6 discs. The Star Trek original series sets were amaray and 6 discs. The 3rd season was even a slimmer casing that would be about the size of these pictures. We'll see though. Again, I'm a sucker for the repackaging double dip.

[MifuneFan]

Slim cases are a possibility too I guess. Fox did re-release some box sets with those in the past too.

[stvn1974]

Same terrible films, shiny new packaging. Pass.
