Lunchtime Deal: Star Wars Blu-Ray Set $88

Gizmodo AU

The Star Wars Blu Ray set may have made changes that some fans aren’t happy with (even if some of the sounds are true-blue Aussie ones). But if you’ve not yet indulged your inner Yoda fetish, it’s worth noting that Dick Smith has the set for sale at $88 all up. [Dick Smith via BuckScoop]

      You’re talking about George Lucas, right?

    Just not interested in this.. I dunno why. When I first heard about it coming to Blu-ray I was excited.. but then as the release date came closer and closer, I got more and more disinterested; and now that it is out.. I am completely not interested.

    I am still interested in the Harry Potter Movies 1-8 Bluray set though, due out December 2, 2011.

    I’d totally buy the original trilogy un-molested on bluray.

    The “George Lucas acting like a tantrum chucking toddler wanting the movies his way” edition though? Pass.

    I bought it because, this is going to be the only version I can see on bluray, ever. the originals will never be released again, George has made that pretty clear so either, I live with that or never watch Star Wars in HD :(

      That’s what he said about the DVD Special Edition in 2004, until he completely backtracked and re-released the originals in 2006.

      George Lucas doesn’t have a story to tell, he has money to make and if there’s a buck in milking people one more time, them he’ll do it.

    I just want to know when Howard the Duck is going to get remastered and released with 40 hours of special features!

      I actually enjoyed Howard the Duck, and would buy it on Blu-ray. (Seriously!)

    the hd-dvd/hdtv version was quite nice, and leaked onto the interwebs ages ago. Bit of a non-event really.

    Here’s something to look forward to.
    One day Geoge Lucas will die and his estate will be keen to cash in on anything available, and hopefully that will mean the high quality version of the original theatrical release of the original 3 films. (It should be buried somewhere as the original files were cleaned up for the re-released special versions.) Our last remaining hope is the greed of either george or his estate. Pretty sad.
    After all, many of us waited 25 years to finally see Blade Runner in all it’s glory – though I can’t forgive Ridley Scott for changing f**ker to father).
