That IS TERRIBLE

KrugerIndustrial · 09-05-2011, 08:29 AM

Oh dear Christ. I always thought Lucas was a little child with tons of money. Now I'm sure.

wiggy · 09-05-2011, 08:33 AM

I must admit, I'm having serious doubts about getting this now

demiscy · 09-05-2011, 08:42 AM

I cancelled my order.

There will definately be another set down the road anyway, maybe with the correct versions of the films..

KrugerIndustrial · 09-05-2011, 08:58 AM

I have a feeling you might be waiting for quite a while...

If those US sets are region free I think I'll grab just the Original Trilogy-set when it hits around $28.

It's funny over on the American thread, a lot of people think that this is new, and that he's upset with the Blu-Ray set, and that's why he has done this. Not realising that it's actually from Spaced from years ago, pissed off because of The Phantom Menace.

LOL!!! Is that for real! That isn't some fan dubbed joke?

Prepare for another thousands of postings on the changes after it is officially released on September 16.

Haha, I was actually laughing to myself reading that thread last night when someone else posted this gif on there. They just don't get it lol

Billz · 09-05-2011, 09:28 AM

There are only 4 changes that Lucas should have made, which would have made this set a day 1 purchase.

1. Reinserting the original scene of Han shooting first
2. Editing Jar Jar out completely
3. Putting Sabastian Shaw back in as the ghost of Anakin in Episode 6
4. Adding the ghost of Qui-Gon Jinn to the end of episode 6, to "bookend" the 2 trilogies together.

If those 4 changes, and ONLY changes were made, then this set could have been the best blu-ray set ever released. Lucas is a fool.

The 12th for us

Even earlier for those that ordered online!

Obi Wans new sound is like stan's dad from south park when he was constipated.

nightcrawler · 09-05-2011, 10:28 AM

I wonder if the price dropped on Amazon by £10 because of people cancelling their pre-orders (in light of the changes made by Lucas)?

Oateyboat · 09-05-2011, 10:29 AM

I have the original theatrical versions of the original trilogy that came out in 2006. Are they worth much now or is it worth selling them cheap to a friend? If I sell them to a friend I could ask him to let me keep the theatrical disc and let him have the special edition one, and I don't think he would mind, but if they are worth quite a bit of money, honestly I wouldn't mind that much parting with them completely. Anyone have any experience of selling them?

Probably price matching Tesco.

My guess would be because if it is £10 cheaper there, more people will order from them and thus they will make more money. It could also be because of the 15% off voucher that Tesco Entertainment offered. I think all the shops know that despite the changes and the fan backlash, these boxsets will still make a lot of money.

I cancelled my pre-order. I'm not paying for this piece of shit. The good thing is that it saves me £60 this month
