OK - So I'm blame just general ignorance here but I have a quick question.

The only way to get all of the bonus features is to buy the whole damn SAGA set?? I know they've spilt them up into OT & PT but from what I'm reading now all the deleted scenes, bonus footage, etc. can only be found in the Complete Saga Collection. Is this correct?

I guess I'll have to buy the whole damn set if that's the case as it sounds like all the bonus disks are going to be worth it.

Correct. You have to buy the Complete Saga to get the bonus stuff on 3 extra discs. 9 discs in total.

Damn! Just as I feared! While I love the idea of the high definition movies I really only want the bonus features! Hate to have shell out all that $$ which will include 2 movies that I can't stand...

I'll wait for the bootleg version, lol.

Hoser. I'm in the same boat you are. I want the special features, but could care less about the rest of the discs. I have DVDs with both the "Special Editions" and the original releases of the Original Trilogy on them. And the PT is on Spike TV enough that I don't really have to buy them. Ah well, what else am I going to spend it on right??

Hah! Knowing Lucas he's probably thrown some of them into the movies as well! Have to appeal to a greater audience you know??

I hate to shell out those bucks and can't right now anyway. I've got my theatrical releases on well worn disk and backed up along with the rest of the saga to my hard drive. I'll wait until someone can get me a bootleg copy of the special features, lol.

He already did use Care Bears. Return of the Jedi.

So true Jesse, so true...

Just no love for those poor furry critters.

So did anyone take the plunge and buy the blu-ray set yet?

I'm gonna hold out for the 3D versions I think

Cretin that I am I pre-ordered mine on Amazon the day they were announced. I had a $20 credit for something (I can't remember) so that brought the final price down to $59 for the complete set. For me the improvement in color-timing and sound alone were worth the price.

Waouw, 3D as well? That's definitively a must.

Do you know if the US or UK Version also includes a french version(no talking about the subtitles). I was planning to buy it Amazon UK since it cheaper than Amazon France but I am not sure that the US and UK version includes the French version...

Anyone knows?

Paul - My girlfriend bought it for me over the weekend Unfortunately she doesn't have a blu ray player so I have to wait until Friday to get started on it. The packaging is awesome though!

the screen tests of the rebel pilots is pretty funny
watched the deleted scenes last night
the Wampa attack on hoth has an uber cheesy wampa..
have not found the holiday special guess we have to wait for it in the 3d version..
the Blue ray/ compared to the DVD upscaling on PS3 is awesome the colors are so much more dramatic..
its pretty nice but just scratched the surface of what is all there
I waited on bought off of Ebay for $70 bucks and free shipping-
after the 1st week target upped their prices by $20 bucks (ick)
