I am sorry dude, but I am not a member unfortunatly :-[!

I really want to see it too! If you go to Galactic Hunter, on the main page.  They have a little sqaure picture of the embossed cover with Han and Leia.  Also, when you click on the link to check it out "they are assuming you have hyperspace", starwars.com, shows a tiny pic of the bottom of the boxed dvd's so you might want to do that.  Doing that was good enough for me, until it is a wide press release.  We will probably be seeing it in a month or so.  Just gotta have patience, young one! ;)

Full screen?

[Insert vomit icon]

;D


I actually wasn't aware of that, Kevin, but it's good to know. I'll be picking up the Widescreen, and I'm pleased to hear that Widescreen is silver - Gold isn't my color...  :-\

Yeah, I really like the packaging art for these as well.  Even though these are movies we have all seen 100s of times, I am so looking forward to having these on DVD in the fall.  I like how they ended up doing the packaging, and hopefully we'll hear some more details on the extras sometime soon.

I really do NOT care for the whole "ingot" thing. I know these are the "Speshul Additions," and it made sense for the anniversaries, but I'd have preferred something even simpler for this set, like just the ORIGINAL poster logo (http://images-partners.google.com/images?q=tbn:EzF9BefH13YJ:www.deuceofclubs.com/books/starwar2.gif). (Then again, maybe that logo should be reserved for the REAL trilogy. :P)

The Vader image is okay, but kind of sad. George has taken one of the greatest movie villains of the 20th Century and successfully transformed him into yet another sappy, misunderstood anti-hero worthy of sympathy. Poor Vader.  ::)

And thank God for Full Screen. If the lowest common denominator of videophiles (IE - Wal-Mart consumers) don't get an image that fills their screen, there'll be hell to pay. Bigger is better and all that. Now if they could just figure out a way to get all the sound to come out of ONE speaker, everyone would be happy.

Looks pretty sharp, but I could've gone for something a little more visually exciting.  Not bad though.  I'll be signing up for that silver one for sure!   8)

It'll be interesting to see if there's really additional footage added in.  I don't think it's going to happen until later on though, after Ep. 3.

I like it.  Can't wait to see what the individual boxes look like.  My only concern is that looking at the TPM and AOTC dvds, the lettering on the spine is gold, which could clash with the silver of the OT dvds. Although they could be consistent and the lettering on the dvds is gold and just the box is silver.  

We'll just have to wait and see.

Mosnab, ask and thou shall recive!

Here's the latest on the Special features from thedigitalbits.com:

"We have even more detailed information from retail sources this morning on the content to be included on Disc Four of the Star Wars Trilogy (due 9/21). According to FYE, the disc will include:

Star Wars: The Independent Films feature length documentary - The story of Star Wars is the story of the most successful independent series film ever produced. It's the story of a Hollywood outsider named George Lucas and a low-budget labor of love space saga that defied the odds and reinvented the rules. It's the story of a revolution born of a dream. It's the story of an independent filmmaker who had to innovate and invent an entirely new way of creating motion pictures. It's the story of a fundamental paradigm shift in the creative process made, not by the studio system, but by a single filmmaker with a simple dream. (150 min.)

The Evolution of Characters featurette - Get an in-depth look at how all your favorite characters came to be with exclusive concept art and discussion with George and the people who shaped what ultimately became out favorite heroes and villains. Includes a separate still/video gallery cut to Star Wars music with access to artwork and classic scenes for each major character. (30 min.)

The Influence of Star Wars featurette - Without Star Wars, there would be no... The groundbreaking special effects that were pioneered to make Star Wars movies not only helped viewers escape to a galaxy far, far away, but they changed the way every movie was made thereafter. Experience never before seen effects innovations from the films and learn how pivotal the films were to modern effects wizards and filmmakers. (20 min.)

Lightsabers/Fights featurette - Forget laser pistols, the lightsaber is the coolest weapon in the Star Wars galaxy. What were George's influences for creating the lightsaber? How did Mark Hamill, Alec Guiness, and Darth Vader stunt people approach wielding a saber? How did the effects guys figure out the lightsaber beam? How did each fight escalate from the previous one? And what influences did this creation have on movies thereafter? (10 min.)

1977 Featurette - Transport people back in time to the opening of each Star Wars film. Menus will showcase all the pop culture features from the 1977 opening such as: TV references, toy ads, promotional partner commercials, news clips, songs inspired by Star Wars, Star Wars magazine and newspaper coverage, classic video game demos. (20 min.)

Star Wars Battlefront X-Box Video Game Demo (15 min.)

Teasers and Trailers from the original theatrical releases of each of the movies along with the 1997 re-releases. (15 min.)

TV Spots from the original theatrical releases of the movies along with the 1997 re-releases (5 min.)
Episode III Behind the Scenes Preview
Section One - The Creator: Finally the birth of Vader. George talks about finally bringing Vader back to the series and teases about Anakin's descent to the Dark Side and the powers of seduction in play. Section Two - The Costume: Black is back. For the last Star Wars movie ever and the birth of the ultimate villain, a new costume was forged. This segment answers some key questions: who created it? was it made for Hayden? Section Three - The Actors: Finally I get to become Vader. Key interviews with the cast (including Hayden) and crew sharing their thoughts and experiences about working on the last Star Wars film and finally seeing the completion of the Saga. (10 min.)

Stills - A comprehensive gallery of posters from around the world, classic artwork, and never-before-seen photos from all three films (approximately 300 images.)

DVD-ROM Features - DVD ROM link to exclusive Star Wars website.

So there you go... certainly sounds interesting. By the way, each of the movie discs will also reportedly include a credit roll Easter egg. Just so you know, all of this does jive what we've heard from other retailers recently, so it sounds like the real deal. Throw in the audio commentaries we've reported on previously, and you've got a nice little package."
