Summary: Episodes IV-VI
Review: The only ***** in here is VI. Don't bother with the rest (though IV is alright). You can buy Episode I which I recommend more than this or the rest.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Nothing (Maybe Mom) has given me more than these Trilogies.
Review: I will escape the Examples of Psychology, Philosophy etc. To just state why I love the Star Wars Movies. Of course they were my favorites growing up as a boy. But the Love that Lucas has for his creation is felt in so many scenes. With maybe the exception of Return of the Jedi. Which to me, is the slowest paced of all of the series. The Plot is Simple (Good vs Evil) but it was never done with as much conviction and so much visualness. There is not a scene in any of the 4 movies that bore me. Some people may say that Star Wars is too commercialized today. I disagree. It is above commercialization and hype. Because Star Wars in its roots is un-convoluted and basic pure fun. Now the Matrix is hyped and commercialized. But when you have something such as Star Wars (that is simple in its essence) it is hard to say that it is hyped too much. Episode VI Return of the Jedi is not as exciting as the other movies, but it is still excellent. While Episode V The Empire Strikes Back is one of the most visual and inventive movies ever. With the Exception of Jar Jar, Episode I, The Phantom Menace was excellent also. While Episode IV starts it all. I enjoy the improvements made in

Summary: The special edition is great, but where are the DVD's?
Review: This Star Wars special edition box-set is great! The special new effects look great(period), and the new scenes are very enjoyable. There's one thing though. Where are the DVD's? I know they're coming out soon now, but why did Lucas publish another VHS special edition box-set? Wasn't the first one enough? I guess, for die hard Star Wars fans this new box-set must be great, but there are many star wars fans out there who eagerly awaits the DVD's.

The reson I give this box-set 5 stars, is because the Star Wars movies are classics! DVD or no DVD, these movies are still great, even if they're on VHS. Afterall, the picture quality on these VHS tapes are superb, aswell as the sound!

Buy these VHS tapes, if not, wait for the DVD's!

Summary: Great films...but not on DVD
Review: These three masterpieces should be on DVD, but I heard a rumor that Lucas did not want them released on DVD till all 6 episodes were out on video. That way, all 6 would be released as a box set with an enormous price tag. Just a rumor though, so take it with a grain of salt. Anyhow, these movies deserve nothing less than 5 stars. They're clear classics that will forever be adored by many fans.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Definitely a collectors' item.
Review: This is the one item you must get if you are a STAR WARS collector. It's all three of the first together in one! What you get is: STAR WARS: A NEW HOPE, EMPIRE STRIKES BACK, and RETURN OF THE JEDTI. You also get an exclusive behind-the-sceens look at the making of STAR WARS - EPISODE II, which will be out in theaters sometime in May of 2002...just in time for the summer! What would be even better would be to add Episode I. This is definitely worth the money if you are a fan of STAR WARS. George Lucas is a true genius when it comes to making movies. If you love STAR WARS then you must get this!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Trilogy rocks!
Review: A superb Star Wars trilogy, with enhancements to the stereo and picture quality. It makes it seem like it was made in the 1990s, instead of the '70s and '80s. A superb movie trilogy packed into a collector set, with excellent characters (Skywalker, Vader, Solo, and Leia) and nonstop special effects. Cool bonus footage. George Lucas has created three equally good cinematic masterpieces. All three videos are rated PG; usually for some minor profanity and action violence.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best Triligy ever!
Review: BUY THE TRILOGY,ENJOY GEORGE LUCUS'S MASTERPIECE. WATCH BREATH TAKING BATTLES ON HOTH AND IN SPACE. BUY THE DAMN MOVIE NOW!!!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: OVERRATED BUCK ROGERS
Review: Okay, the first movie was cute (and how anyone could be surprised by Vader's announcement in III...how obvious can you get). A movie for people who think "whoosh" is the sound a space ship makes in a vacuum (hint: there is NO sound in a vacuum). And if I never see an Ewok again, I'll die happy. Oh yes, finally...these are outstanding special effects???! It's matted, guys, and painfully obviously so. SWII is a waste of time, and SWIII could have been told in 30 minutes. Enough of a long winded boring series signifying nothing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A classic
Review: Every Sci Fi fan needs this for their collection. If you don't have it get it because it is not always available.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The third step and final triumph
Review: This here review only concerns the Return of the Jedi, the third episode, but it is teh crowning episode in most respects. The final episode, the happy ending after a lot of suspense, a masterpiece of creativity. The family gets reunited. The brother discovers his sister and vice versa. The son confronts his father and manages to bring the Jedi back out of the dark side which is definitely destroyed. The Emperor, the dark half of human nature, tha dark evil of humanity, the dark forces of the universe is brought to his end by the father who is thus regenerated and finally can take off his mask to look at his son with his real eyes. During that time, the sister and Solo, the ex-mercenary, destroy the shield of the death star and make friends with some primitive people on the planet. Those are so funny and so cute that they are lovable at first sight, looking like big living teddy-bears. But deeper than those plain events, it is the victory of the bright side over the dark side of things, the victory of the alliance of all the little Davids against the tyranny of the big Goliath. It is the victory of a joyful and happy society of individuals who love each other and love music, dancing and celebrations over an austere and sinister tyranny. The only mystery that survives at the end of the film, once the body of the father is burnt as some kind of religious homage, is why the sister is called a Princess, which is a reference to a monarchy and which builds a parallel with the Emperor of the dark side. She should be anything but a Princess. She should have no link with any non-democratic political system, she should have no link with any political system at all. She is pure life and happiness in a world of death and political tyranny. She is imagined Liberty and realized Freedom and conquered Peace. But well, we can do with this limitation. Dr Jacques COULARDEAU, Paris Universities II and IX.
