Quote from bjsguess : I'm not a huge Star Wars guy period. It's a fine series but severely overrated IMO. And if you think the last 15 minutes is some of the best that has ever come out of Hollywood - wow. That's all I can say. There are, of course, silly things in the IV-VI. Nobody would argue otherwise. I would say that Lucas had the benefit of over a decade to write and conceive, unlimited resources to pull from, and amazing technology when crafting I-III. Despite all of that, I-III are collectively awful. You will see just how awful when Abrams takes over. Will make people wish that I-III had never been done by Lucas. I have to go back to Lost World or Jurassic Park III or IJ and the Crystal Skull to find more disappointing movies that Lucas' last 3 entrants. It's all a silly debate though. If you love E3 then good for you. I was commenting on THIS DEAL. For me I wouldn't own the entire series because the first three are unwatchable. I was able to jump on an earlier deal for just IV-VI and that was perfect for me.

In my opinion, ROTJ was better than what the concensus said. I'd rank it ahead of IV. There was certain room for improvement. I think it could have been as good as ESB. I'm not sure why most people consider IV better than VI. With that said I don't see how the last 15 minutes was that epic.

I have very high expectation for JJ Abrams. The existing stories after VI are pretty good as is if anyone read books or comics. If he just copies the stories with slight alteration, the movies would be great knowing his quality of work. He really has no excuse to ruin Star Wars. But we will see.

I'm not sure why you'd want to use Harrison Ford again (It's final, he will be in VII). That scares me a little bit. I hope VII isn't some 50 years after events from VI. I worry that if JJ Abrams gets too creative, the story may conflict with existing works. I'd hate to see the repeat of I-III not making any sense with IV-VI.

Quote from bilditup1 : As for this deal - still good, for the extra features and commentaries. About $20 savings over the normal price. Morally speaking it is more legit to have an actual copy of the Blurays when watching edits that use them as their base (like Harmy's).

And to whom do you owe this moral obligation? Fox? Disney? George Lucas? God?

I'm not really interested into getting into a big discussion, but suffice it to say that the operating principle is that you own the materials from which the project was made, so that they could theoretically have cut the movie themselves. Because there were so many involved in this one, it is unreasonable to expect watchers to buy all of them, but the editor just recommended people get the principle source, which is the Bluray set. He's not out to cause lfl a loss of money and has stated that repeatedly.

Now, you seem very hostile to the idea altogether, and are meanwhile making me out to be some kind of zealot for even proposing it. As I see it, that's your problem, not mine...

From toys to bedsheets to books to ice cream bars to breakfast cereals to Lego sets, I 've spent countless thousands of dollars on all kinds of incarnations of Star Wars merchandise. Now I've seen the movies in the theater, owned the VHS tapes, the DVDs, and even the Blu-rays; however, I sold the Blu-rays because I absolutely hated the further changes George Lucas made and I have no interest in continuing to own something I won't watch again. I've paid the Star Wars tax and continue to keep paying it so long as my children keep an interest Lego.

Now what the editor is proposing and what you are perpetuating is a rationalization for his illegal acts, violation of the DMCA and distribution of copyrighted material. He breaks the law, but then says it's okay by putting the obligation of purchase on people who watch his illegally made product? And you say there's a moral obligation to buy these overpriced Blu-rays? Really? I'll counter that by saying there's a moral obligation on Lucasfilm to provide a clean copy of the original versions. Then I'll consider purchasing those Blu-rays.

I'll wait for the $50 USD mark.

perhaps May 4?

I don't post often but I figure I would share my story. I tried ordering the Audio Technica mt 50 from this site last year and they ended up canceling my order. So I called and argued with them and ended up getting a 40 dollar credit. I applied that credit to this and ended up getting it for 30 bucks.

I feel like a lot of SDs who jumped on the Audio Technica mt 50 deal and got their orders canceled have the 40 dollar credit.

Bravo!

Quote from bilditup1 : What you need to do is try to find Harmy's Despecialized Editions. Especially his 2.0 'Star Wars' (aka 'A New Hope')

I'll second the vote for the Harmy's Despecialized versions!

Quote from viewAskewser : DO NOT CDS DVDS OR ELECTRONICS FROM INTERNATIONAL SELLERS ON EBAY!!! DO NOT CDS DVDS OR ELECTRONICS FROM INTERNATIONAL SELLERS ON EBAY!!! DO NOT CDS DVDS OR ELECTRONICS FROM INTERNATIONAL SELLERS ON EBAY!!! I bought a Pink Floyd box set on eBay a couple years ago from a seller in China and it turned out to be a counterfeit. A ton of the names of the songs on the cover had typos. The cases were made of really crappy cardboard. The cover art were pretty low resolution images that had been printed. I bought an 8GB MP3 player on eBay from a different seller in China a couple years before that. The thing only held 1GB of music. I'm not great at math, but if the MP3 player is advertised as an 8GB it should hold more than 1GB.

Chill. If you get something counterfeit, file a claim with Paypal, get your money back, and keep the counterfeited item. No biggie.
