Its one of the best box sets you can get and with extras, you could not ask for any more. The improved picture and sound quality on them all has been worth the wait.
Episode IV (A New Hope)
Cast - Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Peter Cushing, Alec Guinness, Anthony Daniels.
I got taken to see it the first time it came to the big screen but I was to young to remember it, parents loved it and have been watching it ever since.
This is where it all starts and with a super theme tune.
This is my second best out of the three as its got action and effects and the bits that have been added to this film has made it even better.
Episode V (The Empire Strikes Back)
Cast - Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Peter Cushing, Alec Guinness, Anthony Daniels, James 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 to have in the film but who am I to 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.
I rushed out to get my copy and now have two copies as my mum and dad new I would love this box set, everyone new I had been waiting for it to come out on DVD.
They still all have the best special effects to date if you think how long ago they were made, not many are even half as good as these films. Even though they added some extra effects that could not have been done at the time to these films it has only made them even better.
Every house hold should have one, as its for all age groups and better still you can watch it again and again. I could not even tell you how many times I have watch them but its a hell of a lot.
Three of the greatest films in one set how cool is that!

and the films?

Your enthusiasm shows through nicely, but you do need some information about the actual boxset. Chritianfilmcritic's comment below shows some of the changes you might consider making. If you do decide to alter the review, just send me a message and I'll be happy re-read and re-rate. Sam.
