I've got the 1996-remake of the original trilogy on laserdisc.. I've got the original starwars on Widescreen VHS..

I'm waiting until all 6 films are out on DVD in one big boxset to even consider buying them.. and even then, probably in a sale..

I know there are a few people who have DVD versions of the laserdisk releases, I have a couple of questions:

1) Are any of these pre-special edition (ie. pre introduction of Jabba in StarWars, and pre-Greedo shoots first)

2) even if there are no good pre-special edition versions around, would anybody be willing to run off a dupe set if I provided blank DVD-Rs

I own three full sets of the Star Wars videos, original releases (my Star Wars is ex-rental), Widescreen THX releases, and Widescreen Special Editions. I would just like to get a high-quality(ish) DVD version rather than have to rip from VHS if possible.

I'm kinda thinking that there may be a few people willing to do the old "get one copy - make a copy for someone else" just for the mates on here, kinda like MAME ROMset distribution.

(I know it isn't strictly legit, but we know we are all going to buy them, and most of us alreay have them more than once)

1) There are I believe, but you have to look very, very hard.

2) If I had a DVD burner I could, but don't, so I can't make you copies of the DVD rips of the original (pre SE) trilogy I have.

*fingers in ears*

LAlalalalaa can't hear you.... lalalalalaa

And then right, when Luke asks how he can react so quickly, Han replies that he used "this trick some old Jedi taught me"

... then JarJar wanders in and says "Mesa the new pilot of the millwenium flawl-cone.. " and everyone laughs.

Then the entire empire gets beaten by an ewok accidentally dropping a lollypop.

i want them to fix it so that instead of darth saying

"*I* am your father"

he says

"I *am* your father"

i'm pretty sure it makes more sense in the context of the conversation....

listen to me.

I want them to change it so when Leia says "Of course I love him... He's my Brother" Han replies "Ooooh, you dirty little minx!"

What about filming an all together new movie about events in a galaxy even farther away?

"Coat please!!!!"

Actually, that's what Lucas should just go ahead and do, make Star Wars all over again. That way, he can make it the way he supposedly "intended" to make it way back in the '70s. Then he could leave the original trilogy exactly as it was when we all first saw and fell in love with it.

Still, I am kind of glad that they FINALLY addressed the bit with the Rancor, that has ALWAYS pissed me off.
