Woo to the hoo!
There. That wasn’t so difficult, was it?
This time, “Star Wars,” “The Empire Strikes Back” and “Return of the Jedi” will be available individually and appear on DVD exactly as they did in their respective theatrical runs in 1977, 1980 and 1983.
Each release, distributed by 20th Century Fox, will be a two-disc set that also includes the digitally tweaked 2004 edition.
It’s called options, people. It’s what DVD’s were supposed to be especially good at.
I figure this is going to be a way for Lucas to push the Blu-Ray/HD-DVD editions of the new edits – they’ll most likely be the only ones available on the new formats. But, still, I get to see the movies that I remember or the new versions as I desire. That makes me happy panda.
