Opps. My mistake. I was thinking about the SE edition. Now that I recall, I watched my LD's using DPL II movie or Circle Surround and that was great.
It's about his artistic view of Star Wars and his control.After five years of following this issue, I'm absolutely convinced you're right.

and probably a second version of Phantom Menace.I'm definitely hoping they'll remaster TPM sometime. If ever there was a title needing a better transfer, it's this one.
However, I recall rumors a year or so back specifically regarding the faces set. I could be wrong but I seem to remember people were sigting this set as one that unfortunately was beginning to go bad in many cases. Is there any truth to this?The "Faces" set from 1995 is not prone to laser rot. The Defnitive Collection box set that was released prior to the Faces collection has been known to rot. I have heard nothing of the special edition releases rotting.
I mean, this is a guy who had the balls to release yet ANOTHER version of the Original Trilogy on VHS back in 2001(knowing for a fact that VHS was a dead format) rather than putting them on DVD!In actuality, the last release of the SE's to VHS were in November 2000, but your point is still valid. In fact, that November 2000 release went to VHS, VHS Widescreen, "overseas" LD, and "overseas" VCD!!
Now ... If you think that was bad, "Hold on to your Butts!", because I'm telling you people right now that there is going to be some kind of Star Wars release in November 2004. Hopefully, it'll just be a repackaging of Eps I and II to DVD and *not* another release of the OT SE's to VHS!!
It's about his artistic view of Star Wars and his control.And the irony is that he is writing a trilogy about a man's turn to the dark side in the pursuit of order and control.
