Summary: Star Wars Trilogy Review
Comment: I would highly recommend this product to any Star Wars lover. The Digital Remastering makes the series seem like brand new, and the audio is great, too. I'm definitely going to get my money's worth out of this purchase.

Summary: Still A Classic, But Still Not The Same
Comment: I have been a Star Wars fan for as long as I can remember. I have seen all three of these films so much I can quote along with the movie word for word. When I got this for christmas a couple years ago, I was ecstatic. However, when I found out they were the new special editions, I got slightly annoyed.
Don't get me wrong, I still love the new special edition films. The additions and changes don't detract from the enjoyment of the films. They just seem to be unnecessary. Why mess with something that has become such a staple of our society?
Like I said, the additions and changes are minor, but they are still unnecessary. Like the whole music video type song they added in Return of the Jedi. It is all in a made up language anyway so it didn't add anything to the storyline at all. And when they add the jawa getting bucked off his mount. Its just unnecessary.
Some of the additions were more tied to the storyline. Such as the scene where Han first talks to Jaba in A New Hope. They actually filmed that with Harrison Ford originally but didn't include it into the actual movie because they didn't have the technology they needed to insert Jaba into the scene. That scene gives you a little bit more of a look into Han and Jaba's relationship.
The digital remastering is very well done also. The picture clarity is significantly greater in the special edition.
For those of us who still have a VCR and love the Star Wars Trilogy, this boxed set is a good buy. Even though it doesn't have that same raw sci-fi feeling, its still a quality classic set.

Summary: Star Wars Trilogy
Comment: What would you expect, it's the original three Star Wars movies! These three are the best of the series of six! I purchased them used and they are in great shape. No scratches on any of the four DVD's (Bonus disk included).

Summary: Star Wars Trilogy Widescreen
Comment: For Star Wars aficionados. It has the latest special effect additions and better resolution than the same period VHS tapes. Interesting bonus disk.
Customer Rating:
Summary: The greatest films of all time, in a great DVD set
Comment: The Star Wars Saga changed the face of cinema, and even rewrote modern mythology. The journey of the hero, capitalizing on the imagery of medieval Japan, Flash Gordon, World War 2 and the Old West, comes to life in the classic "Space Opera" trilogy that affected an entire generation, and hopefully with this splendid DVD boxset, generations to come.
