price is $25.48, but the Bonus disc looks like it could be worth it. Hopefully when release day comes near, the B&M stores will have it for $19.99 or so.

Now all we need is a boxset announcement for all 6 movies... Unless Lucas is going to tool around with them some more for the 30th anniversary in 2 years... bleh, he probably will to milk more money out of fans.

I haven't bought I and II, and im not going to buy III, especialy when i know within 2 years, a massive box is going to be coming out.

I'd settle for a box set including just episdoes I-III, packaged to match Episdoes IV-VI of course. I and many others already have IV-VI so I hope Lucas doesn't try to stick it to his own fans that much by making you buy IV-VI again.

I wish they would release the making of documentries of the original 3. I was hoping the would be on the bonus disk in the trilogy but only bits were there.

The sad thing i bought the trilogy, will buy this, and will but the 6 set when it comes out, then the blu-ray or hd-dvd set, then the next one, and so on. George Lucas has me gripped by the balls, damnit, and i hate it (and kind of like it!).

The cover for the bonus disc is the most bootleg thing I've ever seen.
Does this mean that Episode III isn't going to be priced at $10 like Episode II was when it first arrived at Wal*Mart.

I still never bought episodes IV-VI simply because I hated how Lucas mucked around with his masterpieces. Greeto shoots first, my ass.

Yeah, I saw this on www.rebelscum.com (http://www.rebelscum.com) a couple days ago. I will most likely get this edition. Here's hoping that Wal-Mart PMs TRU's excellent price of only $10 when Episode II when it was released.

Also, I'd be careful about ordering this particular one in the link. This one is marked Full Frame in the description, there's another one marked widescreen. Just an FYI for those of you who buy Widescreen.

It's cool that they're giving out the bonus disc. Going to wait to see what the actual features are though, since all of the Wal-Marts around here love to take the price of the regular release and add $5 to that when it comes with some sort of bonus.

George Lucas is the reason double dipping exists. I am sure all of the other studios saw how much milage Lucas gets out of his releases and said "I want in on that!" I bought threee different versions of the VHS Original trilogy (Original, Special Edition, Special Edition Widescreen THX) and then bought it again on DVD. I have Epsidoes I and II and I am buying Episode III and that is it for my purchases. He will have a boxed set and then a HD-DVD and Blu-Ray and another and another. There will never be an end. I am content with having both trilogies and will call it a day.
Curse you Lucas! *shakes fist*

when episode 2 came out on dvd..walmart had it for 9.98!! :) of course the local best buy had it for 14.99 plus u get a FREE mini calander..woopie doo....guess which store i got it from?
My guess is that walmart will have it cheap for that day as well. so I can go to walmart at 6am and get it and be atwork by 7:30am yay or DAY OFF FOR ME :) unless best buy does a MIDNIGHT sale for it as they did with the SW trilogy.

Hans wierd head movement on the dvd WILL ALWAYS leave my head scratching on that one for a long time. They should have just reshot the scene using a look alike from the side of Harrison Ford so you only see the side of Ford's face moving out of the way at the shot is fired. Unless he had the force to "sense" where the shot was going to hit so he could move at the right moment, THERE IS NO CHANCE he could have survived that scene. Stupid lucas..thats one scene that SHOULD have been deleted from the movie period. btw anyone here followed the post trilogy movie books know if they ever said han was force sensitive?
