May 4, 2006
Lucasfilm
has announced that this September fans can look forward to the
long-awaited DVD release of the original theatrical incarnations of the
classic "Star Wars" trilogy!
In response to overwhelming demand,
Lucasfilm Ltd. and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment will
release attractively priced individual two-disc releases of "Star
Wars," "The Empire Strikes Back" and "Return of the Jedi." Each release
includes the 2004 digitally remastered version of the movie, as well as
the original theatrical edition of the film. That means you'll be able
to enjoy "Star Wars" as it first appeared in 1977, "Empire" in 1980,
and "Jedi" in 1983.
See the title crawl to "Star Wars" before it
was known as "Episode IV"; see the pioneering, if dated, motion control
model work on the attack on the Death Star; groove to Lapti Nek or the
Ewok Celebration song like you did when you were a kid; and yes, see
Han Solo shoot first.
This release will only be available for a
limited time: from September 12th to December 31st. The international
release will follow on or about the same day. Each original theatrical
version will feature Dolby 2.0 Surround sound, close-captioning, and
subtitles in English, French and Spanish for their U.S. release.
International sound and subtitling vary by territory.
"Over the
years, a truly countless number of fans have told us that they would
love to see and own the original version that they remember
experiencing in theaters," said Jim Ward, President of LucasArts and
Senior Vice President of Lucasfilm Ltd. "We returned to the Lucasfilm
Archives to search exhaustively for source material that could be
presented on DVD. This is something that we're very excited to be able
to give to fans in response to their continuing enthusiasm for Star
Wars. Topping it off with a new interactive adventure makes September
12 a red-letter day for Star Wars fans."
