First on blu-ray (fair enough), but then once again in cinemas as Star Wars 3D.

ZWAH!

When will the milking and ruining of childhoods end? :(

Maybe...just MAYBE...this could be an opportunity to right some of the horrifying wrongs that St. George inflicted upon my fragile psyche with his previous attempt. This COULD be an opportunity to make amends. For example... HAN SHOT FIRST DAMNIT!!

For the love of god, Lucas, don't you have enough money? Just leave the franchise alone.

If Boba Fett doesn't have his original voice, I won't be watching.

Heard about the 3D for years (Lucas was one of the original pushers for new 3D), and the bluray as you said is understandable.

Because i thought you could only retread the same old movies to a certain extent. There has to be a line somewhere. :(

tbh I would rather see a reboot of episodes 4, 5, and 6 before seeing them in 3D

heresy, I know...but I think it would be good.

The 3D release does not interest me, but I really want Star Wars on Blu-Ray. I really hope that the Blu-Ray release has the original unaltered films in full Blu-Ray high-def glory and not like the crap quality thrown in as an after thought bonus feature as they were released on the latest DVD boxset.

I'm all for the blu-ray and HD. I just hope he won't start editing again - like Christian Hayden as Darth Vader at the end of episode VI.

I for one are looking forward to the Original Star Wars being released in the Cinemas, I've always wanted to see them on the big screen :P but im not convinced by this 3D business, I dont want to see a movie from behind red and blue sun glasses.

How dare you.

How dare I? How Dare I? How dare you to suggest that Han shot first. Greedo is the only one in that cantina to have the intestinal fortitude to go in for the kill first, Han is just a goody two-shoes in a hollow tough-guy shell that wouldn't even so much as think about shooting another thing before it had the chance to attack!

Naturally, I'd like Star Wars on bluray, but I'm not buying a version of 4,5,6 where Greedo shoots first.

Han Solo is the epitome of rugged manliness! How dare you imply that some lizard faced alien greaseball could get the first shot from two feet away at Han! I mean, if events HAD unfolded how you alleging them to have unfolded, why aren't Han's brains decorating the wall of the Mos Eisley cantina? ;)

Anything to get Empire Strikes Back on the bigscreen is a win in my book. Every 5 years or so they should just put the original trilogy up in movie theaters for a week just to make me happy.

Who won is not the question, but rather who shot first. I severly doubt Han would have the thermal detonators to attack first but, as a smuggler, he has intense agility which allowed him to avoid being hit!

You're going on as if you don't know Han really shot first in the original version of the movie. Are you not aware of that, or are you just being stubborn? I'm only asking this because there are people of all different ages in here, and sometimes you assume something is common knowledge when it isn't.

Greedo shot first in all the versions, there was just a camera malfunction in the original version and the first shot, fired by Greedo, was not recorded!

Hmm. And astonishing speed to have him move so fast that not only did he dodge...he appeared not even to have moved because he moved back to his original position so quickly that ordinary mortals would be under the impression he just sat there and Greedo missed from two feet away before Han retaliated and blasted Greedo's sorry green hiney? I SUPPOSE that might make sense...

Blu-ray was obvious, but 3D? For the love of god I wish 3D would just hurry up and die again and this time have the decency to stay dead.

Let's also think about the moral implications here: Han was a good guy and Greedo was a bad guy. The good guy never shoots first, its like a rule or something, man! A rule!

Clearly Han Solo was a Jedi. It would totally explain just how Han Solo was able to move so fast so as to dodge a blaster shot at point blank range. The Force was clearly strong with him. CLEARLY!!!

Well ****! Your astonishing reasoning has convinced me. Obviously Han couldn't have possibly shot first since he was a good guy and Lucas' last remake pass was just correcting a horribly unjust rumor about Han ever since the "glitch" with the first version of the movie convinced everyone that Han was bad*** enough to have shot first.

On a second note: Those indeed weren't the droids they were looking for. Obi-Wan simply lucked out but the stormtroopers felt like having a laugh and humored him.
