Guess I need to get my butt out there early too. (Hoping for no spiders, but regardless I will be getting a copy to lock in the store-specific coupon to save 10 bucks (one way or another if need be).) Less than 9 hours for me if all goes well.

I was thinking I've never watched them in chronological order, would give it a shot this time around. It won't kill me.

Wal-Mart was playing ESB today, and there is a fairly obvious digital yoda addition when luke is training doing the handstand (Yoda is facing away from the camera).
Just FYI

Any other additions people have noticed (aside from the one's we all know about already)?

Spiders? Store specific coupons? Please elaborate!

I'd be interested in seeing an HDTV to Blu comparison.

I remember the HDTV version having about the same level of quality increase over the DVD as the BD appears to have over the DVD.

LMN8R · 09-16-2011, 05:28 AM

Picked up the original trilogy at WM for 39.96. I love the fact that it came in a standard 3 disk case. Don't care a lot for I,II,III and almost never watch extras so I'm happy.

sowecrazy · 09-16-2011, 05:29 AM

I just got back from wal-mart and look what i found!!!!! only waited 4 years!!!

Jason520C · 09-16-2011, 05:29 AM

Funny how people are talking about the Wilkes-Barre and Hazleton Wal-Marts in PA. I went to the Dickson City one at midnight and was one of the few people there. Probably 4 or 5 of us all got in line, all getting the complete saga. There was no problem getting it, the guy had it all ready for midnight already

koreyman · 09-16-2011, 05:30 AM

ok just returned home from Walmart the one I went to received 2 cases of Complete Saga and 4 cases of each trilogy set and they are giving more shelf space 2 the small sets. Just a heads up on what my walmart had in stock and no cupcakes

The pictures are Red X's/dead links, and they were uploaded a week ago (someone with a copy that early to compare?)

Do they work on your end?

NO.

Sorry about that. I know that I've seen some, but I can't seem to find any. I'll dig some more.

Anyone else here know where to find any OT blu-ray vs HDTV comparisons?

My Walmart didn't price match the $79.99 price that everybody and their brother is charging. Dude said that that was on-line price only. (I'm thinking BS, but whatcha gonna do?) Paid $96 for it (including tax).

Anyway, got to the store at about 10 till, clerks were just putting the stock on display. Me and two other guys were waiting to buy it. And only one of them were buying a copy. I was the first to checkout as well.

Waited until about quarter after to get it because of the price deal. Dude went back to the back to verify the price on the website. Came back and said that it was the on-line price. I had my Droid with me and pulled up the Walmart website and showed it to him. And he said they can't "comp" their own stores

What??? You can't price match your own stores? But you can competitors like TARGET???? Doesn't make any sense... Oh well, I got it, and came home to cancel my Amazon order...hope I did it in time...

Got the Complete Saga at Wal-Mart for $79.96 plus tax. I guess mine did price match, since Best Buy and Target are across the street, and I had a $50 gift card my mom gave me for Christmas last year, so after tax, I only spent $36.56 of my own money. Can't watch right now, as everybody else is trying to sleep. Will watch in the morning.
