Lucasfilm and Fox have put together a two-disc DVD set that features six hours of additional material including a documentary about the movie made by Lucas and the movie's other filmmakers and eight scenes that never made it into the movie."

    I know there will be lots of bitching about the original three star wars movies not being released yet. And I agree with that, but I want to bitch a little about the indiana jones trilogy not being released on DVD. Its really dissapointing not to be able to get those, and it seems like it wont be on Lucas' radar for quite a while.

    "The DVD and home video of hit movie..." Sorry to be a grammar queen, but the author seems to have left out the "s" at the beginning of one of the words...

    In other news :), the Lord of the Rings DVD is coming out on tuesday (or monday midnight for some stores).

    Initial reviews are saying that it basically kicks all ass, and will be the new reference DVD for home theater-philes. And mind you this isn't the upcoming 4-disc extended version.

    Star what? Attack of the what? :)

    I'm a big DVD fan, I'll pick this up as soon as it's out. But I found something else for my Star Wars costume/collection. There's this site that sells incredibly realistic lightsaber replicas. They use blades that are supposedly unbreakable and they glow, and there are 5 colors. I've never seen a yellow lightsaber before. The handles look almost exactly like the ones I've seen in the Star Wars Visual Dictionary series (unfortunately, no curved Count Dooku handles yet) and have little blinking lights on them. I'm not advertising for the company or anything, I just thought it was really cool. The price is a little steep (around $265), but you know what I'll be getting for Christmas ;)
