[QUOTE="Pirate700"]:lol: Seriously? Yes they will. Film from back in the 50s is still better picture quality than 1080p can actually show.

I haven't heard any good word for a release date as of yet and late last year the head of FOX pretty much shot down any hope that it would be coming out any time in the near future unfortunately. I'm not sure what would be holding up the process though as the DVD release was very late in its life cycle due to Lucas wanting to punish people for his investing in a really, REALLY bad technology idea that went under very quickly.

When it does (or perhaps when the holographic storage version comes out) I certainly hope it includes the original Star Wars sans all the digitally assisted additions and the added "Episode IV - A New Hope" opening crawl.

I can't wait either---on a side note, I would love to see the Lord of the Rings Trilogy in blu ray as well. :)

Do we have to have another version of Star Wars?

Nevermind... just saw an ad out for a pre-order for Lord of the Rings on blu ray... :)

And yes, we do need another version of Star Wars---why not, esp. if it's done well on blu ray?

But how much of that is the TV technology? Because I've seen Blu-Ray look the same as DVD.LJS9502_basic

edit~ I also use the reviews on www.blu-ray.com to determine if a movie is worth the DVD upgrade. They reviewer is pretty good and they post screen grabs from various movies.

i dont care about indiana jones on blu ray cuz i already have them in dvd. but i would get star wars in blu ray though

Hopefully George Lucas will get some sense knocked into him and release the ORIGONAL Star Wars films on Blu-Ray, not this CGI bullcrap!

Han shot first, Greedo didn't even shoot.

Hayden Christiansian should be Darth Vader's Ghost

Naboo shouldn't be in the celebration scene at the end of Return of the Jedi (or at the very least get rid of the "Weesa free")

Everytime Lucas re-releases the Star Wars trilogy, he manages to butcher some aspect of it that further distances itself from its origonal form.

I doubt they could make them look any better on blu ray.JustBeingFrank

The Seventh Seal (1957) on DVD:

And on Bluray:

You can check out the high-res images and more comparisons here.

So yeah, Star Wars and Indiana Jones could potentially look kick ass if the transfers are done properly.

ITs odd when I think about it, how much coverage Star wars always gets.. When I personally think Indiana Jones is the superior series in every way.sSubZerOo

>You can check out the high-res images and more comparisons here. Silent_Bob32

I think Lucas already announced it :P THAT is the only reason why I am not buying the Star Wars and Indiana Jones collection.

Plus with a sharper image, I can finally confirm if ET really was in EP 1. GOD I cant wait

eh, I'll get lord of the rings when that comes out on blu-ray. I've never been a big fan of star wars.
