Advantages: These films never seem to age. Disadvantages: None
The Star Wars films are three of the truly greatest films ever made. I never tire of watching them. My own children now sit in awe as I did when I first watched them. They have it all. Love, honour, villians, and spectacular special effects. Everyone in my family has their favourites and mine is Episode 4, the first one released. Luke is the main hero but its Hans Solo played by Harrison Ford who is unforgetable. He just oozes sex appeal and this ...

...themselves to the first 3 Star Wars films. A few years ago the trilogy was enhanced using special effects and it was only a short wait until the makers of Star Wars found another way to sell the films. The extras disc is quite interesting and useful if you have a spare afternoon to use sit and watch it (rather like the lord of the rings extra discs). The price is also reasonable at around £30 in most shops although, if you have a star wars Ep 3 cinema ...

Star Wars has been one of the great trilogy's produced in the film industry, and now it has got even better.
With the release of the 3 first movies (A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and Return Of The Jedi) plus a additional bonus disc, this is a must own in any family's movie collection.

Advantages: Three fims in one box, less storage, easier to have a lazy day watching all films Disadvantages: Can't fit into the standard DVD rack, pain if you already have first film but not the rest
The Star Wars Trilogy are the films which rocked the world. From the release of the very first film sci-fi fans have never looked back. By todays standards the special effects are nothing, but with these films that does not matter. The opening sequence has you strapped to your seat, biting those nails wondering where this film will go, the difference between this film and recent sci-fi releases is that these actually keep you in that seat. I wont ... ...a lot about it) but after you watch the first film you will want to watch the second and then the third. Well now you can with the release of the box set. All three films in one easy box which also contains lots of interesting special features including cast interviews and interviews with George Lucas himself. I learn't a lot about these films from these special features even though I had seen the films about 50 times. My advise watch the films, ...

Advantages: Well presented, bonus disc is full of lots of information for star wars fans Disadvantages: Its only the first 3 films, all though that could be an advantage!
These films have been digitally remastered, which brings out the true brilliance of these films. They have always been a big hit with me from a very early age.
Personally I wasn't that keen on the added digital effects that do still seem to stand out from the orginal footage and also change my orginal memories from years gone bye, but having watched the fourth disc this is how George Lucas envisaged the films but technology wasn't upto the mark ...

Advantages: It's Star Wars! Disadvantages: There are no disadvantages
The trilogy consists of probably the best films ever created - A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and The Return Of The Jedi. The trilogy has been digitally restored and remastered with dolby surround with a couple of new/modified scenes throughout the trilogy. The trilogy starts of with A New Hope which involves the discovery of Luke Skywalker, the son of Darth Vader and without giving to much away is a classic film of good versus evil! The second ... ...personally believe is the best film in the saga and the best film ever created, with a superb storyline and imagination from George Lucas, the special effects are good for the year it was made as well. The final film in the trilogy and the saga is The Return Of The Jedi which i think is a brilliant way of ending the Starwars saga with a classic example of good defeating evil and a huge space battle to end all space battles!

The Original star wars trilogy. I love these movies, these were George Lucases original 3 movies which finish the star wars saga. It is fantastic to compare the newer movies to these, the technology has come along amazingly but the puppets in the originals are still outstanding. I must say that i was slightly dissapointed when i bought this because after seeing the new movies it seemes a little outdated. In the new movies special effects are use ... ...when these dvds were made. Anyway if you have only seen the first 3 you have to see this to know how it all ends!

...Earl Jones.
The best ever Star Wars, it has even more action and effects that has got even better and most of all more bad guy stuff. Vader is the best, what a voice.
Episode VI (Return of the Jedi)
Cast - Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Bill Dee Williams, Peter Mayhew, Anthony Daniels, James Earl Jones, Ian McDiarmid, Fank Oz, David Prowse.
Any other great film but it could have done with out the EWOKS I feel they are a bit pointless ... ...say that as my sister and mum really like them, they think they are sweet.
Bonus Disc
Its got it all!
Documentary, features all actors and the great George Lucas himself. Video games, loads of behind the sence clips and even a preview of Episode III. I can't make my mind up between Darth Maul and Darth Vader.
