Everything old is new . . . again?


I've busted on Georgie Lucas for the horrible CG he subjected us to as we tried to enjoy the three recent installments of the "Star Wars" saga, but I do have to give some credit where it's due.

Lucas is getting ready to do something every interesting with the first incarnation of his cinematic triumph:
On September 12, the original theatrical version of Star Wars will be available on DVD, bundled as a bonus disc to the 2004 Special Edition of the movie, which will be available for the first time ever as an individual movie DVD.
If you go here, you'll find a link to 122 comparison images of before-and-after adjustments made throughout the film, including in the opening titles and closing credits.

May the force (of sitting throughout it all over again) be with you . . .
