Star Wars Trilogy Box Set DVD.

Without sounding too excited about the first DVD release for the first 3 star wars or is that the final 3 films. A can recommend this too anyone that wants to buy the box set.

Comparing it to the 2000 VHS Trilogy version, the conversion and re-mastering of it to DVD is top notch. The colour is excellent as it was in the original cinema version** and the sound effects are to be admired crisp and clear the better the sound system you have the clearer the sound effects are.

** In the first film the picture is so crystal clear than you can actually see that C3PO has one lover leg a different colour, (I've never noticed that before in the Video Version, so to me it shows just how good the colour is on DVD over VHS**

I would recomend this release to anyone.

However one thing that did anoy me slightly is that they have changed the ending of Return of the Jedi (Film VI) to fit in with Star Wars III now instead of Old Vader as in the original, you now see Young Vader (Anakin). To me thats the only niggling factor it should have been left the same as Vader was old when he died !! (Obi-One and Yoda are still old in the ending, why not Vader !!!)

Apart from that one glaring Episode III change everything is crystal clear, excellent sound and a good buy!!
