It all depends on the artwork.........


Very exciting times though!

 

[alan chaplin]

star wars in a steelbook........hell yes

 

[policenauts]

if it could be the original one, I'll bless Disney

[funkydamo]

uh-oh. it will be like... 'name your price'
how high could they price this and still sell out in a day.
i reckon id bite anywhere up to £40 (any more and i will take a chance on ebay)

Unless Fox go ahead and say "You know what? Fine. We're giving you the unaltered versions with some Restoration, and a special steelbook to go with them too as well as a normal Blu Ray release." just like the 2nd time they released SW on DVD, I'm not really going to bother with this one.

Hell, why not make money off the original unaltered versions before handing the keys to Disney if you can Fox?

 

[jcm]

I have a feeling since Star Wars is such a huge franchise there will most likely be releases worldwide

 

[Dino Last]

I'm sure it will be a nice Steelbook but it will still contain Vader saying Noooooooooo! in Return of the Jedi.

 

[Lone Crusader]

Keeping my fingers crossed for this. X

Would be nice if it was the original theatrical just brought upto speed, but cannot see them doing that. Besides got version on VHS

VHS!? What's that?

 

[SteelbookedUp]

Ah, shucks. Was hoping for individual releases. Won't stop me from buying though.

Embossed and debossed would be just awesome.

 

[beats]

I hope its better than the Spanish artwork

 

[spawnshop]

I hope they are original and not "special edition"

 

[mllNY]

now that Disney owns them there is a legitimate possibility of seeing an untouched version unless there was a clause in the contract when Lucas sold regarding what can be released

 

[movieknight]

An automatic yes for me!

I don't mind paying a premium price either but how about premium art work and embossing/debossing to go with it. Let's give it the "Star" treatment it deserves!

Fox still owns the distribution rights of parts 1,2,3,5 and 6 of the Saga up to 2020, and they have permanent distribution rights of A New Hope.

Disney owns the characters licences and all future movies distribution rights.

This is great news but I was about to finally buy the box set next month! I wonder if the steelbook will have all the special features?

I've never actually seen any of the Star Wars films so depending on price I might get both these trilogy sets.

Hopefully the price will be £20-30 like MITB trilogy play released.
