This September: Original Unaltered Trilogy on DVD
May 03, 2006

Fans can look forward to a September filled with classic Star Wars nostalgia, led by the premiere of LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy video game and the long-awaited DVD release of the original theatrical incarnations of the classic Star Wars trilogy.
In response to overwhelming demand, Lucasfilm Ltd. and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment will release attractively priced individual two-disc releases of Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Each release includes the 2004 digitally remastered version of the movie and, as bonus material, the theatrical edition of the film. That means you'll be able to enjoy Star Wars as it first appeared in 1977, Empire in 1980, and Jedi in 1983.

See the title crawl to Star Wars before it was known as Episode IV; see the pioneering, if dated, motion control model work on the attack on the Death Star; groove to Lapti Nek or the Ewok Celebration song like you did when you were a kid; and yes, see Han Solo shoot first.

This release will only be available for a limited time: from September 12th to December 31st. International release will follow on or about the same day. Each original theatrical version will feature Dolby 2.0 Surround sound, close-captioning, and subtitles in English, French and Spanish for their U.S. release. International sound and subtitling vary by territory.

"Over the years, a truly countless number of fans have told us that they would love to see and own the original version that they remember experiencing in theaters," said Jim Ward, President of LucasArts and Senior Vice President of Lucasfilm Ltd. "We returned to the Lucasfilm Archives to search exhaustively for source material that could be presented on DVD. This is something that we're very excited to be able to give to fans in response to their continuing enthusiasm for Star Wars. Topping it off with a new interactive adventure makes September 12 a red-letter day for Star Wars fans."

That's also the day fans will be able to experience the LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy video game, the action-packed sequel -- filled with tongue-in-cheek humor -- to one of the best selling video games of 2005. To see the trailer to the new game from LucasArts and TT Games, click here!

I myself am really glad they did this & I know I'm looking forward to watching Star Wars (not Ep. IV A New Hope) once again. Very Happy

- Seti

Me too. The thing is, you have to buy the "new" Old Trilogy, with those new special effects and whatnot, in order to get the original films in the Extras...

And that is going to be expensive. Not mentioning I already have the old trilogy twice, in video and DVD. Hmm... *starts thinking of ways to convince her parents to get them for Christmas*

Just tell them it will expand your horizons in your study of contemporary film design and you would be lucky enough to buy into this limited-time offer of classic movie-making history.

Hah. Kudos. I don't have a friend Star Wars-addicted enough to do that with.

Neither do I though I have to admit I have been able to draw their interests into Star Wars by a little bit.

I got my friend (Xander Vos from the Jedi forum) interested because he loves Darth Maul, so I got him to read the novel, and he thought it was awesome, so read some of the other stuff as well, and now is absolutely hooked, Very Happy.

This should be cool, but I think it will be way too expensive, I'll just buy them on VHS for $1.00 Smile

I might get it but if I do it will be only if I feel like I need to in order to live.
