"The Digital Bits is reporting that there is finally some official information from Lucasfilm regarding the release of the Star Wars OT (episodes IV, V, and VI) on DVD. The movies are coming to DVD in September of 2004. The animated series of Clone Wars shorts appearing soon on the Cartoon Network will also be released on DVD, possibly before the end of this year. The teaser campaign for Episode III will begin in January of 2005, leading up to the May theatrical release. Finally... Episode III will hit DVD in November of 2005."
May 2005!!! I'll be 26 by then! What's the holdup! (Of course, if it's gonna be as bad as Episode II, I can wait.)
In my excitement for the Tolkien trilogy I have really forgotten all about Star Wars. The movies just don't hold a match (is that the phrase) to the originals or how good the Tolkien trilogy is.
