This is the one I have. And the one I prefer watching. I will probably end up buying the bluray because apparently I enjoy the goiter raping my wallet. But I am well aware that the bluray will probably contain the shit that I could live without.

"You were lucky to get out of there." I ask you....

[Ingrid]

And that poster is indeed sweet. I want one, too!

[V]

I've always been interested in interstellar trade routes!

Finally! Someone has answered my prayers!

[Anderson]

It's been a long time since I've seen the SW starchart. A very long time.

[FilmNerdJamie]

I'll just cling to my old VHS copies and watch the deleted scenes on YouTube (which will no doubt be immediately posted when the Blu-Ray sets hit), fuck you very much George.

I would assume so, if it was the special AND originals I would assume they would have said so in that press release.

[BillyG]

Yeah, just saw on Collider. Confirmed to be SE only. Fuck that. Just canceled my order.

[Matt]

Awesome! I used to have that SPFX special on VHS back in the 80s...that was a great special that aired on TV that was, as I recall, FILLED with really cool stuff.

Troy: any word if, in the deleted scenes, they're going to have the ESB Wampa plotline?

[Abraham Smashington]

I really just want Empire on blu, but I fucking know that I'll cave and buy the whole set BECAUSE I'M SO FUCKING WEAK.

[Matt]

I'll buy the whole damned thing as well and probably never take the shrink wrap off of eps 1 and 2.

TESB on blu will be amazingly amazing.
