So it's going to have what the dvds should have had all along. Lucas is the best at milking every last drop from Star Wars.

The scene in episode 6 with Anakin and Obi-Wan, will probably have the "boy" version of Anakin this time around :P
(the uncorrupted version of Anakin that is)

Let's hope he stops with the edits soon.
Sooner or later there will be too much fuckin' about the it will ruin the movies.
Some say that has already happened.

I might get these, but I doubt it.  Honestly, I'm fine with the original theatrical releases and Adywan's ANH edit.

Okay, TrekMovie had a thing up about this sometime last week, and apparently the Blu Ray release is going to have some of the old unreleased stuff, including a deleted scene from Return of the Jedi.  Most specifically, the scene that showed Luke Skywalker constructing his lightsaber on Tatooine before the whole thing at Jabba's Palace.


Maybe....just MAYBE Lucas can do something right?

As long as that scene is not integrated into the film. Cause it would ruin the surprise of him having a new one.

with bluray I bet it is in the film... just you have the option to play the movie with or without it.

I'm all for the addition of unreleased content into the main movie (except Jar Jar), especially if its from the original Trilogy!

lol, to quote that big, fat gungan, whose name I forgot btw. (was it Boss Nass or something like it ? ... nevermind) 'begone with him !' (Jar Jar) I mean it's those stupid cartoonish rabids like Jar Jar or squeaky childish pit droids that ruined prequels, while original trilogy was still fantasy it was kept in certain level of seriousness (maybe except EP 6) while EP 1 was directed for kids, EP 2 for Teenagers (due to 'Bold and Beatiful' style dialogues and EP 3 tried really hard to achieve the goal but failed horribly... no I'm not getting prequels on blu-ray :) just original trilogy :P

Knowing what Lucas did in 97/98 with originals (just look at the overcrowded Moss Eisley arrival scene in ANH) I don't know if I want him to edit those movies anymore cuz in these scenes you can't focus on main characters or anyone else cuz droids, random cgi garbage etc. keep coming from one side of the screen to another... although it's tempting to see all the deleted scenes like Luke's watching space battle from the surface of the Tatooine or his meeting with friends and then with Biggs, that would be awesome and I don't care it would slow the pace down even more (I actually like that slow, cosy pace ANH had from it's very beginning :) )

That's probably why it was deleted in the first place.

Blu Ray Original Trilogy is confirmed to be the 97 Special Edition and the 08 DVD re-release.
