Hi Everyone! hey terry and netty!
Just like everyone in here in 2 days everyone will be owning this anticipated tittle on DVD! well here's my review of the set.House in a box within a box with a top flap that can be removed via a hair drier to get the goo off! To me the box seems a little cheap than what I expected but oh well! All 3 movies are spread into 50 chapters each on their own disc. all have the commentarie, 5.1 Dolby Digital surround EX, and 2.0 tracks in english, spanish and french. also included is a cheap crappy chapter listing.......I had expected more than just a piece of paper.....the good thing is that all inserts have original concept artwork on the other side. All the discs have the original art work imprited on them.
Video
Finally presented in Anamorphic Widescreen 2.35:1 all I can say is WOW for all 3 movies! They're crist, bright, detail is always there, no artifacts, no grain, whatever lucas did hey it worked! haha everyone should be pleased with the picture quality!
Sound
Hey! is time to start setting up those surround sounds if you don't have one you better get one because you're up for a treat! Presented in a 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround EX, Star Wars couldnt sound better! Lightsabers, Death Star Exploding, the cycle chase in the woods. This mix will blow you out! This is what a 5.1 Track should sound on every DVD! Everyone should be very much pleased with this mix. I don't see how a DTS track could top this mix!
Extras
while I havent seen all of features, I did see the preview for Star Wars III in anamorphic WS, nice little featurette and I can't wait to see it in theaters! then we get the featurettes, trailers, etc..... all menus are interactive, anamorphic and 5.1 friendly!
Changes
All I going to say is that Hayden C. is in Return of the Jedi
It's looks so weird but yet it matches It's a well done change that wasn't really welcomed on my end as it doesnt add anything but it takes away from the movie knowing that he wasn't even there in the beginning and for some reason it just doesnt look like it was part of it in the original film. but ugh I'll stop my rant before it get over bearing! Also Naboo is in the celebration scene and nowhere found is the ewok song! also coming on tuesday is the 2 disc set soundtracks for all 3 films maybe the ewok song will be there? The Special Effects look updated and some look like they have been tampered with. but over all it looks really good!Closing Thoughts
For been a rushed project due to piracy. The picture and sound can smoke the pirate DVDs out of this world and everyone who has bootlegs should think about upgrading to this set. Everyone that doesnt should buy these also. If you dont have a surround sound get one since you'll be happy you did! If you have a surround sound be prepared to have the time of your life! if you have a HD-Widescreen Display be prepared to enjoy the crisp anamorphic transfer! if you dont own a WS display get one
not really they still look good on a regular TV! Everyone enjoy!
