Star Wars Coming To Blu-ray In September
wiredog writes "A bundle of all six movies will sell for $139.99, while sets of the original three films, and the three prequels, will go for $69.99 apiece. Obsessive types can pre-order them on Amazon now. Han shot first!"
In this edition, obi wan shoots first.
Can I see the original theater version or do I have to watch parodies of the original?
I was beginning to think Lucas stopped liking money.

There is a bundle of all 3 Star Wars movies available on DVD that comes with two disks for each movie: the crap version and the original theatrical release. I picked it up at Costco a couple of weeks ago. It isn't Blu Ray, but it's a lot better quality than an analog Laser Disc copy. Here it is on Amazon (not a referral link).
I think those DVDs were covered here on Slashdot a couple of years ago. Again, not Blu-ray (and hence not high def), but the best quality purists among us are going to get of the original releases for the foreseeable future.

Is the fool who is following him following him so he can part the fool with his money?
Do you Gentoo!?
Merchant: "You really need another copy of the trilogy."
Fool: "I really need another copy of the trilogy."
Merchant: "It's only $189.00."
Fool: "It's only $189.00."
Merchant: "It's Blu-Ray this time."
Fool: "It's Blu-Ray this time"
Merchant: "It's Better."
Fool: "It's Better"
Merchant: "I'll take your money, thanks."
Fool: "Take my money, thanks."
Huh?
