All 6 most recent versions of the movie with some new interviews and "lost" behind the scenes videos. All that for about $90.00 (price varies depending where you buy it).

A bit much for me, seeing as I already own the Blu Ray versions, so I won't be getting this until the price drops.

How about you guys?

They also released new individual trailers for the movies, if you're into that:

Weren't they going to release the theatrical versions on DVD? Who would want to watch the most recent updates?

I already have the blu ray collection which I got on sale for $75 two years ago. I think $90 is way overpriced for this digital collection.

Theatrical versions have been on DVD since 2006.

Okay, go find me a place to buy it. You can't find it anywhere, and I'm referring to a Blu Ray release of the theatrical version, not added onto a special edition as extra content. I own the first edition VHS tapes, but a high definition version that modern TVs can actually play would be awesome.

And that's just Amazon. There's a thing called Google, I think you'd like it.

The Blu Ray releases don't do much besides a little lightsaber touch ups. If anything, the higher res hurts the films due  being able to distinguish matte paintings more easily and such.  They really make the prequels look better though.

But Delta Squad in RC have different voices...

If I remember correctly the main reason they did that was to help the player distinguish between the different squad members, not for an actual like lore reason or anything.

I actually own these. All they did was take the VHS content and write it into a DVD. On any modern high definition TV it's unwatchable. It's exactly the same as hooking a VHS player up and watching that. It's stretched and zoomed in so much that the picture is totally fucked up, the audio sucks, and it's not at all what I've been talking about. High definition, high fidelity audio, theatrical cut. No extra explosions, Greedo never gets off a shot, no early Jaba dialog, no extra CGI assets in the Tatooine scenes, etc.

I don't even know why you're arguing. That's obviously not what I've been talking about or the rumor I was addressing.

I have these dvds and they play fine on my new 50 inch TV. I just watched A New Hope last week. Either that guy has a shit DVD player, or doesn't know how to setup his TV correctly.

torrented digital versions a while ago.

I honestly have no idea why you're continuing this. I stated a question about a particular rumor, specifically disregarding the 2006 release, and you linked me to the same thing I had just ruled out. And now you're lying about this playing correctly, because there is absolutely no way you're playing a standard format on a 50" tv without display issues. Either it's stretched to fit, fucking up the already low resolution, or it's playing with huge ass black bars on each side of the picture. And please tell me how you magically converted the audio to 5.1 channels. You're telling me I don't know how to set up a TV when you're claiming your HD TV plays standard format just fine. Jesus christ.

I'll pass.

I can understand the "no" thing, but it's grown on me. Why dislike Temeura Morrison though? Makes sense, canonically speaking. Boba Fett is a clone.

Original voice actor was better. More menacing, gravelly. Sort of fit the Man With No Name vibe Boba Fett sort of had going on.

They didn't even have to change the voice. Accents aren't hereditary, contrary to what Lucas seems to think. All in all I just hate Boba Fett being a clone, there's more than one Mandalorian, I don't understand why they had to be so unoriginal.

Meh, I like Morrison's voice better. Besides, the clones in Episode II, III had the accents. Plus, Boba spent 10 years of his life with his father. He already picked up the accent.

Anyway, Jango Fett and Boba  Fett aren't Mandalorians in new canon. Jango was a rouge guy who adopted it's culture and wore the stolen armor, and Boba being a clone doesn't make him a Mandolorian either. As Lucas and Dave Filoni put it, he  thinks it make him more badass to have killed Mandalorians and taken their armor to remind him of his father. Right now the only "true" Mandalorians in canon ( true as in warmongering, other words the pacifists would count) are the Deathwatch



and Sabine Wren.

We're not talking about the new canon. Go back in time, to before episode II was released. The idea of the Mandalorians as a group of warriors with armor, Boba Fett being one of the last, existed in the canon at the time. I get Lucas was trying to cash in on OT nostalgia and toy sales with Jango, but did he have to be basically the same person? Couldn't he have been someone different with mando armor, but have made a passing reference to "some guy, Fett, I used to know. No idea what happened to him".

But no. That's a level of subtlety unknown to Lucas. "What, there's more guys that had that armor than Boba Fett? Naaaaah if anyone else had it they'd definitely be Boba Fett, or they'd look exactly the same because they'd be genetically identical". Honestly, I get they were trying to connect the PT and OT but the prequels have so many coincidences in them it's hard to take them seriously.

"Oh you know the bounty hunter who tracked Solo? Yeah he's a clone and the guy he was cloned from was also a renowned bounty hunter who was also cloned to make an entire army."

You see why I hate Boba Fett being a clone? Because it's such a stupid coincidence that it sounds like an eight year old came up with it? Because it take one of the cool aspects of Boba Fett's character, the only aspect, the mystery behind him, and throws it into the trash?

I was just mentioning the Mando thing to inform.

And, Star Wars is a Sci-Fi Space Opera. Of course there's a bunch of stupid coincidences. Like Luke keeping his last name to hide from the Empire, with his family.  Or Leia turning out to be Luke's sister.

And it's not like Boba Fett being a clone detracts from his character. What if Boba went through all the same stuff, but he was his son instead of his clone? Does it matter? No, not really. Plus, it made for some nice interactions with the clone soldiers who looked just like his dead father.

@ 13:19 and such throughout the episode
