These three films are in my top ten of all time. If you have never seen these movies, then where have you been hiding all these years?
All three movies tell the story of Luke Skywalker, a young farm boy who leaves his home planet to join the rebel alliance and fight the evil galactic empire. Along the way he lurns that his father was a jedi knight and was killed by the empire's cheif enforcer Darth Vader. He teams up with his fathers old master and a smuggler to rescue a princess and save the galaxy from a planet destroying battle station. I wont tell you much more as I would ruin it for those who havn't seen these classic films.
The DVDs have new scenes that were included in 1997 video specail editions, plus a few extras that help the prequel trilogy tie in with this one.
Aswell as the 3 films, there is a bonus disc which contains hours of extras and making of featurettes. There is also a preview of Episode 3: Revenge of the sith.
The only thing that lets this down is that there is no original cuts of the movies as they were before the new extra scenes were added. I cant see why this wasn't included (Prob going to be released in a new boxset in a few years time to make some more money). I would have also liked to see some of the deleted scenes from all three of these movies.
These really are a must for anyones collection and If you have never seen any of these movies, your in for an epic ride! If these movies were never made then we would'nt have most of the big budget blockbusters we have today (Terminator 2, Lord of the Rings, Matrix, just to name a few). Thats how much of an influence these movies have had.
