Damn it George! Get off your ass and do it right!

Oh god damn it George Lucas!

Fantastic! After years and years and YEARS of your fans begging and pleading and in some cases, threatening, you’ve finally decided to release the original version of the Star Wars trilogy on DVD.

Whoopdy-fucking-doo!

But:

1. It’s being packaged in a 2-disc set with the new, shiny, updated versions of the films. Versions that most of your fans already own, and
2. It’s in 2.0 Surround sound and Non-Anamorphic screen. In other words, it’s terrible sound and none too fantastic image.

You git!

I’m not going to buy this, because I already own the new versions of the films, and I’m damn well not paying for them again. And in all likelyhood, you’ll release an anamorphic, 5.1 surround version in a few years anyway!

If the rumours are true, then all that’s happened is that the laserdisc version is being packaged onto DVD with little done to clean it up, or update the sound. That just smacks of lazy cashing in.
