I've got ep. 4, 5, and 6 on LaserDisc and am keeping my discs and player in storage- just because it's the best copy of the original/unmodified films I guess I will ever have.

Is there any way you can transfer the laserdiscs to DVD? If I recall correctly, some laserdiscs can suffer from delamination of the media. In some cases they can start to deteriorate from as soon as 11 years or so from manufacture.

No Star Wars DVD set would be complete without the Star Wars Holiday Special, released in 1978. Two hours of hell on earth. You've been warned. And yes, this is very real.

That might have been the only time I had a "WTF" moment as a kid. Keep in mind I had Star Wars wallpaper and bed sheets and all the toys and the collectable glasses from Burger King and. . .well, you get the picture.

You didn't ...watch... the whole thing, did you?

I think it's hilarious that they made this thing in 78. It must have cost a fortune!

Yeah, but I'm sure they cashed in. Star Wars was a $13 million dollar movie that had earned about 1/2 billion dollars worldwide by 1978. I'm sure there was no problem in funding the holiday special.

c'mon Ken! How can you beat Star Wars mixed with Bea Arthur and Jefferson Starship?!?! Thank God that you can only get that tripe on bootleg, lest the masses see it and be scarred for life.
