"For now, and always"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Blu-ray transfer is very clear and the sound is terrific. These three iconic films are a must see and they still stand up so well, even after all of these years. I saw them new in the late 70's/early 80's and enjoyed them just as much this week. Unlike the new ep1, 2, 3. These have not dated. Enjoy.

"Underwhelmed"
2 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

One has to ask if GL has set out to reimagine with a goal of upsetting fans andlower the whole tone of theses movies for under 12yr olds.I saw “A new hope” when it first released here in NZ'd back in the late 1970's.This latest reincarnation lacks the same “feel” and the added CGI detracts from the whole original “feel”.Watching it now the whole saga seems so silly,camp,PC,and now,unoriginal.Sure the BR detail and clarity help but i'm left wondering,where is the movie I first fell in lust with-

"Not what they use to be."
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

As an adult watching these movies again it was a little disappointing. The added extras do not create a better viewing experience. Some things should not be messed with and this is a classic example of fixing something that isn't broken. The end of Return of the Jedi is now ridiculous. However I also got this for my kids to watch and enjoy as I did as a child. They enjoyed the movies and so for them it would rate 5 stars, as for myself I would now have to give it 2 stars.
