About time… In the latest “revision” I felt he really lost the shock value of “No Luke, *I* am your father.”   Now I’ll be able to show my son the movies in the release order. That part blew me away as a kid, and I felt that was necessary for the story to work.   Seeing them from 1 – 6 just doesn’t have the same impact when you already know the twists.   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stephanie Rendino Sent: Thursday, May 04, 2006 10:21 AM To: list@gundam.com Subject: Re: [gundam] (OT)AWESOME NEWS     On May 4, 2006, at 8:32 AM, Reynolds, Jason M. wrote:   http://www.cnn.com/2006/SHOWBIZ/Movies/05/04/film.starwars.reut/index.html       LOS ANGELES (Hollywood Reporter) -- The original theatrical versions of the first three "Star Wars" films are finally coming to DVD on September 12, two years after diehard fans blasted George Lucas for releasing only the digitally modified 2004 versions of the celebrated trilogy in a boxed collection.   This time, "Star Wars," "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Return of the Jedi" will be available individually and appear on DVD exactly as they did in their respective theatrical runs in 1977, 1980 and 1983.   Each release, distributed by 20th Century Fox, will be a two-disc set that also includes the digitally tweaked 2004 edition.   The DVDs will be available only through December 31.   I read that and I am SO getting them. It is indeed awesome news.
