Original Star Wars on DVD... Sorta

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Wednesday September 13, 2006 @12:31AM from the well-thats-just-a-let-down dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The Original Star Wars is available on DVD. Sure it's more moola in Lucas's pocketsess (Gollum accent). But he did finally release the original version for a limited time. But which Original Star Wars, I bet Episode IV is in the opening titles. " Also apparently the original versions are basically non-anamorphic transfers from the laser discs. So basically, they look terrible.

I bet Episode IV is in the opening titles.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't "Episode IV" ALWAYS in the title? Seems to me I can remember being a small child (I'm twenty-two now) watching A New Hope and wondering why they numbered it IV instead of I.
