 Do i really need a title? is that really necessary? July 27, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Look i just wanted to rate this product. it was great. i shouldn't have waited so long to buy it but then i had the VHS version till about a few months ago. the DVD set has an awesome bonus disc that contains a documentary about the struggles George Lucas had just making star wars happen. Theres only one difference i noticed in the film between the VHS version and the DVD versions and thats Hayden Christensen, His inclusion does make sense i suppose but it still feels out of place. the rest is gold.
Always a classic! July 19, 2008
The original, history-making Star Wars trilogy is a worthy investment for anyone's library. The digital update makes for a more intense experience. The background disc is so loaded with information and stories, you feel as if you were there from conceptualization to final edit. Don't miss out on this. Get your own copy before it's on EBay for hundreds of dollars!
Must Own Box Set July 16, 2008
What can I say about this set that hasen't already been said. If you are a fan of the movies and don't own episodes 4-6 then I highly recommend buying this. The bonus 4th disc is a very nice touch. I found this set alot cheaper at a local retail store for around $40.
Don't Be Afraid of the CGI July 13, 2008
I've wanted to add this title to my DVD collection for a while, but hesitated when I saw the controversy about the changes. Still, at $25 for the set, I thought I'd take a chance.
Personally, I think the CGI is great. It looks crisp on an HD screen, and not grainy like all movies would be from this period. It breathes new life into a good, but old movie.
I even wish they would have taken it a step further and updated some of the lo-res computer graphics in the movie. They look like Pong.
The puppets seem kind of campy looking today, and maybe they could have done a little something with those too.
I guess there's no way to cover up some of the stupid dialogue between Han and Lea, but that's another matter.
I do agree with others that both versions should be available, but I'm guessing that would be expensive. The whole "Greedo shot first" thing is pretty bad, and completely changes Han's character, but whatever.
The changes make the two trilogies fit together better, and make modern viewing a little bit nicer.
