Movie Reviews of Star Wars Trilogy (Widescreen Theatrical Edition)
Movie Review: A classic, updated
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm not going to review the movie itself, because there are plenty of other sites for that. I want to comment specifically on the digitally remastered edition. If you are one of those that refuses to watch the new version because "that's not how it looked when it came out", you should still get this set, because it includes the original format as well. Personally, I was not born when these movies came out, so the raw, grainy version has no special place in my heart. I have seen the old version, and it's cool. But the remastered version, in my opinion, reflects what Lucas would have done had the technology been available. If you want proof, look at episodes 1, 2, and 3. If you don't own these movies already, buy this set. If you only have the original version, buy this set anyway.Movie Review: What can you say about Star Wars?
Summary: 5 Stars
Of course the material is near and dear to so many of our hearts. It has become something we went from loving in the theater, to playing with on our living room floor, to sharing with our children. Now a whole new generation can enjoy these movies which I dare call classics. For too long I had to watch them on VHS. Now with this collection I get the "best of both worlds" in DVD quality. The original movies as presented in the theater I loved so dearly in my youth, and the version that were re-envisioned by Mr. Lucas many years later. Some dislike the newer "enhanced" versions. This collection let's you have it either way and for a price that is affordable.
Sound and video quality are excellent, truly a great product.
Movie Review: This is awesome!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love that I can watch the grainy, letterbox, old school version on one side.... and the cheesy new versions in great quality on the other side.
I personally like the old school look of the old versions. They bring you back a bit. they should be all crystal clear anyway.
Only thing that sucks is that this is my 5th trilogy.
Lucas can eat a fat one for releasing so many of these.
If he doesn't release a Blue ray version with EVERYTHING on them... all the behind the scenes, etc. I'm going to skywalker ranch personally!!!
Stupid Lucas!
Thanks for Jar Jar ya stupid moron! You wreck the new ones. Sorry... had to through that in there.
Movie Review: Worth it for the originals
Summary: 5 Stars
Visually, I had no complaints. Unconverted onto my 720p, the original Star Wars looked beautiful and was exactly what I was looking for. My TV even had a special screen size selection that made the 4:3 widescreen a lot more liveable, but that is something to consider if you don't have as many "zoom" selections. The biggest drawback was the audio quality which was pretty sad, due to its lack of digital processing (or any form of processing for that matter). For me, it's worth it to see the original untouched visuals from the original trilogy, but if you don't have a copy of the movie score, you might be a little disappointed in hearing that orchestra screech its way through low-quality sampling. Worth it for me!Movie Review: Both versions of the greatest movies of all time! What more do you want.
Summary: 5 Stars
Honestely I prefer watching the original formats of these movies over the special editions. Some scenes were added and taken out of the special editions. I like the special editions for the way they enhanced the picture and sound. So great to have both versions here. I have been waiting for this for a very long time. The originals formats of these movies were difficult to find for many years after the special editions came out. Best part of these releases is they were released in a fun way. One that I can apprieciate as a fan. So many DVDs out there have failed to do this. I still think it could have been a little better but I am pleased with how it was put out. No complaints here.
