Official Confirmation: SW Episode III DVD on November 1st (1 Viewer)

[MatthewLouwrens]

Um, why is there a picture from It on the thread? And everyone is making comments about how "it had to be posted". Is this some joke I don't understand?

 

[Inspector Hammer!]

Matthew,
it's a picture of 'Pennywise', the evil clown from the film Stephen King's IT. He would kill kids by promising that they will "float" if they come down to the sewer with him.

 

[Fabien Renelli]

"How wude"

 

[Greg_S_H]

Matthew, John's right about the why of it. And, it didn't really *have* to be posted, but one little off-topic diversion isn't too bad, I hope. Sorry about it, though, and I'll stick to Star Wars from here on out.

 

[Joel...Lane]

The head shot of Portman on the cover =

 

[Brian]

I just hope the quality is better than this.

"The wish power are together with you."

 

[John Alderson]

I am laughing so hard, I can't breathe.

"I was just made by the Presbyterian Church"

WTF?

 

[Mike Wadkins]

"SMELLY BOY" are we sure lucas didnt write this

 

[Blake Siefken]

Am I the only one annoyed with how average the Star Wars DVD boxes are? I hope when they release all 6 of them in a box, that the box is something unique and really cool (like the Matrix box or the season box sets of Star Trek TOS). Something that stands out on your shelf and doesn't blend in with the rest. I'm sure George would want them to stick out.

R2, do you is f**king.

 

[Colby]

When I first saw the cover, I thought something wasn't right with Anakin (and not just the scar, which I noticed later). I almost think that he may be made up of 2 or 3 different photos, the hair from one and the face from another.

Jedi council = elders = presbyter in Greek

 

[MatthewLouwrens]

Thanks, John, for the explanation of the picture.

Please don't. The occasional sidetracks into other areas and jokes are part of the fun of the HTF.

 

[Stephen J*]

Anyone hear of any stores doing preorders yet?

 

[Grant H]

Buy.com is doing pre-orders. $15.99 I think. It's up at dvdpricesearch.com.

 

[PaulP]

Any sign of a prequel box?

 

[Paul McElligott]

Amazon has it as well (And for one whole cent less, too!)

 

[GuruAskew]

It wasn't mentioned in the press release and online stores like Best Buy and Amazon.com don't have one listed. I'm 99.9% sure that there won't be one on November 1.

 

[Grant H]

It's just as well if they don't do a box-set now.

It will make people feel a little better when they do a PT box-set down the road with the revised versions of the films. At the very least that set will have a new (badly needed) Ep. 1 transfer with a CG Yoda. I'm guessing there will be other tweaks to Ep. 1 as well.

I'd like to see the Dooku CG doubling revised on Episode II, but I don't know if that will happen. It looked a lot better in Episode III. I'll have to wait and see if that holds true when it hits DVD, though. Episode II, like Episode III looked rather dark in theaters which hid a multitude of sins.

I wonder how long it will be until they fix up the OT (again). I can't see that being a high priority since no one ever admitted there was anything wrong with the current release. It might be a silent revision when it happens.

I thought they were going to do a PT box set too. :frowning: I need that. :b
