Prime Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Maybe now you nerds can unbunch your collective panties and salvage your not-really-raped childhoods, because your god George Lucas is finally giving you what you have long claimed he is withholding because he has no soul. BAM Now run along and join your ewok friends as they dance around the fire in celebration.
mimartin Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 How many times is George going to pull this rabbit out of his hat? I thought this "most impressive" Star Wars news was first announced at Celebration V. Still can't hear it enough, plus now I have a price.
mimartin Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Who cares? Anyone that wants to watch it on Blu-ray.
stingerhs Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 finally, the trump card for all you collectors out there so you can finally proclaim your ultimate nerd-dom.
Samnmax221 Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Hey George, you're not getting any more of my money until I can buy the original theatrical versions on blu-ray.
Sabretooth Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Man, I remember the enthusiasm over at Yoda's Swamp when they announced the OT on DVD. Everyone was flipping out then.
Alexrd Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Jar Jar in more pixels = TPM remastered + 3 bonus discs = 2004 SE on Blu-Ray =
adamqd Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 I've known for a while, when i first read your post I was praying for the Link to be "George Lucus is Done With Star Wars, He leaves the future of the Saga in the Hands of Sue Rostoni and co, at LFL" Oh well, I can Only dream
Tommycat Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 I've known for a while, when i first read your post I was praying for the Link to be "George Lucus is Done With Star Wars, He leaves the future of the Saga in the Hands of Sue Rostoni and co, at LFL" Oh well, I can Only dream It could be worse. They could have announced that John Smedley was now in charge of Lucasfilm. All the blasters would be replaced with lightsabers in the New Viewing Enhancements and there's tons of Jedi instead of a handful.
Darth333 Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Still can't hear it enough, plus now I have a price. And you get a prize too: the "taped eyeglasses", the ultimate nerd trophy, to make sure you can see and appreciate the wonders of SW on Blu-Ray

Tommycat Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 Someone sounds butt hurt about Galaxies. Meh, I played it before and after NGE. I preferred it before. But either way it's still better than most MMO's out there. I've always said, that if they had done it right, it would have been a success story. Instead they made the game virtually unplayable for months(years?). As it is now, it's not bad. BUT Smedley in charge of the movies would be a bit scary. He might use that same focus group to determine that there aren't enough lightsabers in the movie. I was thinking of saying they are Re-re-editing the Cantina scene with Han and Greedo to make Jar Jar shoot Greedo instead of Han. Another version of pulling in nerd-rage.

Blix Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 Hey George, you're not getting any more of my money until I can buy the original theatrical versions on blu-ray. I agree.
Darth Avlectus Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 Ah, beating a dead horse are we, Uncle George? Good thing I have the unaltered originals in remastered THX on VHS which I plan to burn to DVD and eventually Blu-Ray when that becomes possible.
Q Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 Hey George, you're not getting any more of my money until I can buy the original theatrical versions on blu-ray. B-b-but the original negatives were destroyed while making the Special Editions! Most likely, the originals will only become available after dear George kicks the bucket; if at all. I can wait 'til then. Time is on my side.

Sabretooth Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 I foresee an ironic twist wherein George's successor will use technology to create a psedu-Original edition and release it separately on whatever 1-TB-sized media we have by then.
Samnmax221 Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 B-b-but the original negatives were destroyed while making the Special Editions! Most likely, the originals will only become available after dear George kicks the bucket; if at all. I can wait 'til then. Time is on my side. I don't they were really destroyed, I believe it's never been more than a rumor. The real problem is George is a douche who has a really hard time coming to terms with the general consensus that the less he had to do with a movie, the better everyone liked it. Seriously, the man has gone back and swapped adlibbed dialogue with what he originally had written in the script.
adamqd Posted January 9, 2011 Posted January 9, 2011 I'm happy with the Current version of the Movies, a little less Jar Jar would be nice, and better saber effects for ROTJ, so hopefully these Blu Ray versions will finish the editions he Started.
