Star Wars IV, V, and VI DVD review....

Morning yall! Well, I have not posted this as much lately, but I have to keep all my Star Wars and Lord of The Rings fans out there happy. Oh and I have a little Halo2 stuff too...if you care, heh.

--------------------

First up Star Wars. What I would like to share with you this morning is the Star Wars DVD set review on The Digital Bits.

(BTW: for those of you non-SW fans the movies IV, V, & VI are the first three movies and A New Hope,Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi.)

These DVDs have been screamed for even since the technology of DVD and now George Lucas has finally gotten around to actually getting them done!!! Woo hoo! And once again he has added even more specially effects to the original films and has even made some character changes to make sure these movies fit and look just like the prequels that they are finishing up right now. A few of the changes are they made the Emperor the same actor as the same actor that played him in the new movies

Old screen from original movie:



New Screen on the new DVD:



instead of an old woman with a man's voice.

another big change is Anakin's Force ghost is now played by Hayden Christensen instead of Sebastian Shaw.

Original movie:



New DVDs:



Well with no further Ado here is the link to the Star Wars DVD review:

The Star Wars Trilogy (the second one, heh)

and here is a page with several shots of the added special effects.

Ok now about the Lord of The Rings: Return of the King Special Extended Editiona Collectors Gift Set:

There was an advertisement in Video Store that stated the release Date was going to be 12/14/04.

So that is what The Digital Bits reported, but now the ad has been retracted and the release date is back in limbo. But just in case you care if is the edition that I want with the collectors gift in it:



(sorry if that picture is too big. Every now and then the pictures force the content on the right side of my blog to be pushed down. I wish it would just cover them up or something like that, but oh well. I guess I just need to get better with my HTML and start changing the blog HTML to allow it, heh. (it is probably a frame problem, but not sure)

-----------------------

Ok now Halo2 info:

Here is a review on IGN.com that has a in-depth review of the Halo2 Beta version. It has lots of info and even some screen shots I have never seen before and that is saying something, heh

Also here is a great new screen shot:



There are more than are not Zanzibar, but this one looks really cool! Now that is the way to play capture the flag.

-----------------

Ok well, there you go a massive Update on the three things I am most looking forward to when it comes to DVDs and games that will be out soon, heh.

Well God bless you all and take care see yall probably on Monday! Take care!!!!
