It appears that the day we’ve been waiting for is finally getting closer. While Lucasfilm isn’t ready to officially announce the Star Wars Blu Ray Collection and its release date, their Director of Fan Relations, Steve Sansweet, name-dropped the upcoming set at the Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo.
“We have been at work for a couple of years working on—I won’t call it the Ultimate Set because we keep finding stuff—but, a very full set of all six movies on Blu-ray with lots of extra material. We’re finding all kinds of scenes from dailies that have never been seen before. Beyond all of those things that you know about… there are some real treasures.” When will the set come out? Sansweet says, “We’re not ready to announce exactly when it’s coming out, but it won’t be in the too distant future.”
Looks like we’ll be seeing some interesting stuff on the set. The “unseen dailies” part sounds interesting, but hopefully we can have a full set of deleted scenes from the original 3 films to go with them. I would also hope for the original, unaltered films, but that would probably be asking for too much. Well, not really, but you know how it goes. Nevertheless, I still can’t wait for the official announcement so we can see a full list of technical specs and extras.
