Star Wars Blu-Ray
So I finally received my Star Wars Blu-Ray set from Amazon the other day and wow, the film quality is amazing. A lot of bad things have been said about this set before it was released due to George Lucas's tweaking as well as the absence of the original 3 films in their untouched format. I however purchased it anyways for both the extensive special features as well as then 6.1 sound upgrade. I have not been disappointed. Watching the original Star Wars (Episode IV), the transfer is so detailed that I was able to see the dirt and scratches on R2D2's dome. The sound of Darth Vader choking the man in the conference room of the Death Star is a sound entity in and of itself, WOW! While I'm not a fan of most of George's additions to the original trilogy, it is nice to see the scenes he didn't change in such pristine condition. I still have my VHS editions of the "as seen in theater" versions of this trilogy if I feel the need to relive the joy of the past. The new trilogy (Episodes I-III) doesn't have many changes although it still looks and sounds amazing on Blu-Ray. The 3 Blu-Ray's full of extras, especially the documentaries are a nice treat for those of us who have already watched all of the extras from the DVD collections and are looking for more insider information.
