Curious how many of you are excited about the DVD Trilogy being released next week. I preordered mine a few months ago and it is supposed to arrive around the 21st.
My Axioms arrive this week. Can't wait to try some of these classics in Pro Logic IIx on my new Denon 2805...

I'm definitely excited. Can you tell me a little bit about the audio track? Stereo? 5.1? What's even possible? They did a 5.1 mix on Raiders, didn't they?

I haven't given it a lot of thought to be honest with you. So I guess I'm not to excited. Are they only coming out in ProLogicII? No Dolby Digital? If so, I'm even less excited then before.

I'm pretty excited about it. Moreso since I caught the SW documentary on A&E this past Sunday. I think it was called "Building of and Empire," or something like that. It wasn't too clear, but I believe that it's part of the DVD set, too.
What was interesting was that I thought I knew most of the "behind the scenes" stories. However there were a bunch in this doc that were just outstanding. One of which was hearing David Prowse's voice saying the lines for Darth Vader, which I had never heard before. It was outstandingly inciteful. And it made me very glad that they went with James Earl Jones' voice-overs for the Darth Vader character.
There are lots of other great stories like this in the doc, too. I'm really hoping that they're including it on the DVD because it'll make it that much more of a collector's item.

Pretty bad, huh? Maybe they'll repeat it... what am I saying? It's Bravo. It'll be on for another week about 3 times a day.

KC,
The documentary was called "Empire of Dreams - The Star Wars Trilogy". And yes, it will be included on the set...it is listed on the bonus features.
I am jazzed to get this...I was one of those who saw Star Wars over and over and over again...I have the originals and the Special Editions on VHS (yuk!) but I will settle for the versions Lucas is going to release on DVD...
My son (12) is also jazzed to be able to see them on DVD as he also understands and appreciates the inherent differences between VHS and DVD (who doesn't? ).
Movie Marathon coming up!
