Rating: Summary: Again? Review: Well, the only reason for Lucas to re release these movies is obviously the teaser for Star Wars Episode II: As Yet Untitled. This is a big disappointment. There is no new footage or anything worth watching. We just hear from George that the new movie with have to do with the Rebuplic, and the mysterious clone wars. If you already own the trilogy, there really is no reason to buy it again. Why not release these movies on DVD? The official position from Lucasfilm is that George doesn't have the time to do the movies on DVD. Does he print them himself in his garage. This is just another example of Lucas milking it. And I doubt this will be the last release of the Star Wars trilogy on VHS.
Rating: Summary: Dum Dum Dum Dum........ sorry Review: Ok first of all let me tell everyone who reads this that i am not a huge Star Wars fan like some people i know. But the beauty of these movies is that it was the first real science fiction movie that swept the nation by storm. George Lucas had very little money making episode 4 " A new hope " but he pulled out a masterpiece. Everyone pretty much knows the story line, Luke Skywalker( Mark Hamil ) seeks revenge on the empire for killing his aunt and uncle. Him and Obi Wan Kanobi buy a ride with the ever fiesty Han Solo( Harrison Ford ) to find princess the dangerd Princess Leia( Carrie Fischer.) The rest of the movie is pure genius at its best. I highly reccommend these classics that still are running hot just as they were 25 years ago.
Rating: Summary: Oops! George Lucas sold out again! Review: I promise I won't bore any of you with how great star wars is, because you probably already know too! All I will say about the movies themselves is that they are 3 of the best films of all time, original and clever. My beef with the new release is how George Lucas is selling another version of the same films over and over again. The Special Edition series was great, and like many fans, enjoyed it a lot. But form what I heard is that this new release is the special edition with a featurette on Ep. II. This a pretty cool, but you can get all of that of the starwars web site for free. They even have great streaming videos. Obviously, if you have a degraded old version or don't own this series at all, please buy this! But if you are like me, and already own the Special Edition, please check out the website for a lot of cool stuff on the film without having to pay 35 bucks to see new ep. 2 scenes.
Rating: Summary: The Other Reviewers are Right Review: I love the Star Wars movies, and I have seen them more than a couple times, as I'm sure everyone else has. But this is outrageous. I see no need for ANOTHER repackaging and redistribution of the same Star Wars movies. I could see if it included Star Wars: Episode One, but it doesn't. It does have a featurette on the making of Episode II, but there is nothing else new here. So if you already own them, don't bother. If you do not already own these classic works of Science Fiction, and can't wait for them to come out on DVD, buy this set now, but only under those conditions.
Rating: Summary: Fantatic Movies! Review: I haven't been a fan for that long, but ever since my cousin got me into these fantastic and imaginative movies, I had been looking all over for them on video. Finally it's released again! It would be great if they came out on DVD, but for now I'm happy to have them on VHS.
Rating: Summary: The 97 retouched edition of the classical trilogy on video. Review: Many reviewers gave this product a low star rate because the trilogy wasnt released on DVD or because the trailer to episode II wasnt up to their expectations.Those complaints *are* valid, but : * Some people dont have DVD - they are students like me who have to settle for a video and a 14" TV and still want to have the trilogy available at home. VHS & DVD are two different products, and the lack of one doesnt change the other. * This product is the trilogy on viedo cassetes, and the trailer is just a bonus. The trailer might be a disappointing, but it's still just a bonus - it's not the product itself. Having said that, I think this is an excellent product - as far as VHS goes, the cassetes are of good quality and are worth the money for someone who just wants this product for what it is - 97 edition of the trilogy on video cassetes. If you have the original trilogy and not really interested in the added scenes and retouches, feel free not to spend money and buy this new release - they really dont make a big difference.
