I have the making of Raiders and Star Wars pulled from old laserdisc copies, but I'd love to see them put on blu-ray with the movies.Originally Posted by Sam Favate
I, for one, am glad to see Sansweet talking about the original making of- documentaries getting a release someday. There are at least four that are quite good: 1977's Making of Star Wars, 1980's SPFX: The Empire Strikes Back, 1983's Classic Creatures: Return of the Jedi, and 1984's From Star Wars To Jedi: The Making of a Saga. All saw release on home video in the VHS age, but never on DVD.
BTW, Lucasfilm should take note that similar releases exist for Raiders and the Indy films, including The Making of Raiders, and Great Movie Stunts.
All of these have interviews with the cast and crew and are narrated by one of the principles.
There was also a NOVA pbs special in the late 80s which covered the effects of the Star Wars and Indy films called Nova: the magic of special effects. I'd like to see that on one of these releases also.
