Star Wars - The Original, One MORE Last Time

[MatrixDweller]

There's not enough Bluray adoption yet for Lucas to consider pumping out some high def versions. He'll want to be able to press a billion Bluray discs to reduce his costs and maximize his revenue. It's kind of sad that he still has to put money first and not the art or his die hard fans. I doubt he would loose money if he released them tomorrow and I bet it would sell a few Bluray players and high def TVs.

I would expect a release date of either 4rth quarter 2010 or a year later in 2011 depending on whether Bluray player and media sales hit a certain magic number.

I bet if there was a way to track DVD sales for the starwars franchise you could probably make a pretty good prediction on a blu-ray release. I would put a buck on rumors starting at the beginning of 2011.

Prediction LOL yeah I won’t be touching it with 10 foot barge pole, not unless it has strictly original 1977 1980 and 1983 original six-track Dolby stereo mixes of that era otherwise Lucas can keep is fiddling Star Wars for all I care.

Yet he flogged us with that Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of Crystal Skull on DVD and bluray thou I brought the DVD saw no point in the bluray just a waste of money same film different price! Now then!

The more things change the more they stay the same.

As for his die hard fans I’m one of that era thou if it wasn’t for “us the fans” his little Star Wars would have only took £$60 or so million. Of course we liked it and paid to see it again and George’s problems of making its money back was escalated though the roof surpassing Jaws.

So if it wasn’t for us he’d still be writing wooden screenplays and making grossly cheap budget films. The money thing went to his head and he became the thing he hated most. Well he seems too well relaxed now and doesn’t give a hoot about the fans lets just leave the guy in peace to gorge on all his money...I mean our money!

Each and everyone of us wants a peace of the original because for most of us we are suckers for originals and he doesn’t want to give any of us this peace of excitement that we enjoined though the late 70’s to early 80’s.

I would really be interested in the blu-ray version if it removed the "jar-jar" and Ewok artifacts that seem to really distract from the movies . Ok, maybe an interactive 'gun' as a feature?

Booo hisss

Well I think Jar jar is Muppet. A CGI Muppet.

I seem to recall Lucas comparing Jar Jar Binks to Buster Keaton, he has got to be kidding?

This is Buster Keaton and this is Jar Jar Binks they do not look alike...well maybe?
