- This episode of From the Star Wars Home Video Library takes a look at the 2019 reissues of all ten current live action films in BD/Digital and DVD versions under Walt Disney Home Video.
- Розваги
I like the covers and colour schemes for the films. It's exactly how I imagine the covers when the movies come to mind.
For episode I-VI I still own the DVDs from 1999-2005
I like that R1 and Solo have a separate style for the spines....
The company that these are released under is now called Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment. It was called Walt Disney Home Video from 1980 to 2001, and Walt Disney Home Entertainment from 2001 to 2007.
Already got the 2011 blu rays with three bonus discs. No digital code for my brother's Vudu account, but I'm sure the movies will be on Disney + soon enough for him to enjoy.
So people still using DVD now have Digital Yoda in Phantom Menace, the one special edition change nobody complains about, my old DVD had that deformed puppet that looked really odd (they should've used the one from Empire & Jedi).
To be clear: The DVDs have had the 2011 cuts on them since 2013, so that's not something new.
@@ChronoRadio ooh, I didn't know that
They're in the DVD/BD combo packs that were released in 2013 and reissued in 2017, though the 2017 ones were short-lived Walmart exclusives and ridiculously tough to find these days. If you don't care about the digital copy, the 2013 combo packs would give everything I - VI from this current batch in more condensed, trilogy-specific packaging.
I don’t like the fact that these don’t come with bonus feature discs or don’t have them on the movie disc, because how will this carry over to international releases? Also, I will not be surprised if Rise of Skywalker doesn’t have a matching cover for these particular releases, because we all know how the steelbooks were handled! 😓😤
Lol true
To be fair, the matching Steelbooks in 2015 were from 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment. They deviated after that because all subsequent SBs were from Disney, not 20th Century Fox. It sucked, but any expectation that they would match back then was without any real grounding for those expectations.
Wow. That's a fair chunk of money to spend, considering they're all a repackage with identical content. Being a completest is quite an expense.
I learnt my lesson years ago and now endeavour to have only one definitive release each, for a select number of movies.
The beautiful design and uniformity of these re-issues is alluring, but I'm going to resist and hold out for the inevitable post Rise of Skywalker 4K box set.
Thanks for showing them to us and all the best!
A future 4K boxset will hurt my wallet A LOT, but hey - gotta have it!
For sure.
hopefully @corey they will actually finally allow us to have the originals cuts and the special edition cuts in the 4k set im hoping
Just announced it on best buy
Wow! The Fox fanfare back on Star Wars?! I’m so happy!!! Thanks for that info. Now I really want these dvds.
It never went away on physical releases. It was only the digital versions of the original six (except ANH) that ever lost them. (To be clear, they're not on the new films since TFA, given that 20th Century Fox had nothing to do with those at all.)
Nathan Butler Oh. But it’s comforting to know the physical releases for the first six still have the fanfare. You are awesome for letting us know.
I'm just gonna buy the original 6
Sweet! I didn't own digital versions, so I got the original trilogy at Target. Thanks for the info!
I hope they can add the fox fan fares know back to the digital copies
they should because disney owns fox now
I liked the truncated fanfares I do miss those im glad I backed them up when I did but I like both version
I hope Disney will re add the fox logos to the digital copies
also @Nathan butler any chance of those newer discs to get a boxset I do want to get those but I think id rather wait for a box set like the Darth Vader set and I hope they can add the fox logos back to the digital copies
I was curious about the contents on these new releases for I-VI and couldn’t find any in my city so this was really informative. I’m a little tempted to dip for these since 20 bucks is the same price for a digital copy on its own, so it and a disc with a nicer cover is a pretty good trade off.
Yeah, for those who never bought the digital copies, the BD/Digital ones are an absolute steal.
28:38 I know Katie, she's hyped up on coke half the time. We're getting her help
The thing with Disney is that whenever they release a uniform set of films in anticipation for the next one, when that next one comes out, it doesn't match. They did that exact thing with Toy Story. Also, there is no 4Ks of these, but I bet when 1-7 and Rogue One come out on 4K, they will be these covers and Epiode 8 & Solo won't be redone to match. That's what I noticed with the rest of the Pixar movies and The Incredibles this month. Very annoying. Same goes for Marvel Studios.
I’m not sure if we’re getting these here in the U.K. I probably wouldn’t double dip anyway, but I do quite like the artwork and the uniformity. I think I’ll wait for the inevitable 4K releases before double dipping again aha
Well this was a heart palpitation I won't get back. Ugh. Looks like the limited editions it is. :(
And nice suit, Butler. :)
"I understood that reference." - Cap
@Nathan butler do you think the theatrical cuts could show up on Disney Plus ?
they have the money to bring the cuts back and retrim them back maybe their wating for Disney Plus to come out to see if they do well on their service first
@Nathan butler any chance of the theatrical verisons of Star Wars empire and Jedi I really wish Star Wars would come out
It's more likely now than it was previously after the Disney acquisition of the Fox entertainment assets, but no actual word of such releases at all yet.
Glad to see this series still going. Even 6 years later
And taking up more and more space! This is actually why I've sold off the bulk of my enormous, pretty much complete Legends and Canon book collections recently (along with just needing to shift to digital to ever have a chance to read anything anymore).
Nathan Butler at least it’ll take up less room. And also my 2006 A New Hope DVD arrives tomorrow morning. I’m ready for my first viewing of the original cut of *STAR WARS*, and I have been for a few years now. Have a great day!
I miss the episode numbers. How are kids meant to know the order
ScreenHackTV there parents tell them
The same way that they know the order of TFA, TLJ, Rogue One, and Solo, which haven't had their numbers on their packaging or discs (and in the cases of RO and Solo, don't even have numbers to begin with)?
@@ChronoRadio do you know how many times I've spoken to people who have watched other movie franchises in the wrong order. And I've had to say "no no no the reason you didn't like it is because you just watch the 2nd one and yog haven't seen the 1st". It's not a good experience for people.
I wonder if the rumored 4k skywalker saga set will have bonus discs for the original 6 because the labels say feature film similar to other 2 disc sets
I'd hope so, but I'm not holding my breath. I'd expect something more like what they did with the Complete Saga with trilogy-specific bonus discs.
I hope soon we will finally get digital and physical unaltered cuts know that disney finally owns them
Anyone know if we’ll get a release of episode 9 that will go with these?
*"STAR WARS: THE SKYWALKER SAGA"* will be released on 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray next year with the original posters and new versions! Including The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, Revenge of the Sith, A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi, The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker! The original theatrical versions for the original trilogy only with a brand new 4K restorations from the original camera negatives! The Prequel and Original Trilogy will including the 20th Century Fox 2013 logo and the silver Lucasfilm logos.
Except, of cousre, that there isn't any actual confirmation of anyof that. I'll believe it when, and most importantly if, that were to be the case.
This didn’t age well.
hope to pick these up soon and in 4K in early April in Australia
You guys are getting slammed by all of these at the same time, right? All the ones we got in the U.S. in September on BD and DVD are being released alongside 4K...and TROS...and Skywalker Saga in Australia at the same time, right?
Nathan Butler yes they will be released on April 1st alongside the release of the rise of skywalker without the complete saga release or other exclusive except for the 4K steel book of the rise of skywalker then they will release the complete skywalker saga collection in 4K in may and not end of march or April 1st
I picked all these up in June last year and the complete skywalker saga collection in 4K in September for cheap
weird that we in Australia never got these releases on blu ray and DVD until the 2020 rereleases and released in 4K
RIP your wallet lol
No kidding. It helpd a little that 13/20 were at Target with the Buy 2 Get 1 Free deal and us having a RedCard credit card that takes 5% off the top, but still. This was rough. I cringe at the idea that these might have also gotten a release in the UK, since I tend to try to get the UK releases too these days.
I'll hold my breath for 4K digital codes until there release on may 4th
To be clear here: There's zero indication (at least in any official sense) of new releases of any kind for May 4, nor any official word on 4K releases of anything other than new films as they release for the first time. Plenty of varying rumors, but nothing official, especially not related to May 4.
Nathan Butler true, but we most likely will get them in 2020
I seen all Star Wars Movie In theaters 🤗
but you didint use the digital code how do you know the newer digital codes don't have the fan fares
They are tied to the exact same digital files, hence why you can't redeem them for the films. You already have those exact same files tied to your account.
it would be cool for disney to put in the fox fanfare on the digital copy versions on the prequel movies and on the rest of the original trilogy
My worry is that it will be the opposite. The physical copies may only have the original fanfare still because they didn't reauthor the discs, just slapped new labels on the same discs since 2011. Once they reauthor them at some point, I worry that it'll be truncated fanfare all around, not just digitally.
I went to my local Target and they had every movie on Blu-Ray there, except for ROTJ, in which every single copy was gone
Have you gone yesterday or today? I found that our local Targets, which didn't have ROTJ BD at all originally, now have quite a few on shelves to coincide with Triple Force Friday. (They barely had anything else at all for TFF, but it at least seems to have spurred them to get more stock of the reissues.)
Nathan Butler I went last week on Friday
These blu rays looked like they were slapped together like the others we've seen before. Kind of disappointing.
Agreed
"Slapped together" . . . meaning what, exactly?
@@ChronoRadio No bonus features, or extra features at all. just the movies. But it was to be expected.
@@Jean-PhilippeGuerin Well, they're the same film Blu-rays and DVDs we've seen since 2011, so that's pretty much, as you say, expected. I wouldn't say that's "slapped together," though. "Slapped together" suggests shoddy quality or a downgrade compared to the norm.
Thatmoviegeek they feel like rushed cash grabs!
do the dvds have the green or silver opening @Nathan
Too tired to remember, but it's whatever was on the 2011 cuts of the films. They don't change cuts until the Mar. 31, 2020, releases.
I found all of them at Walmart except rogue one DVD and solo DVD
They became much more widely available by mid-October, which is also when Walmart began stocking them, sometimes alongside the Walmart exclusive versions of the Original Trilogy and about a month before the other five exclusives arrived.
I picked up episodes 1-6 Sunday. 4 of mine has the little snap things on the opening. The other two are don’t have the little snap lock on the opening. Did you find this too?
andrewrockzyou Yeah, they vary on these.
Nathan Butler good to know. I wish they would have all been the same. I’m not going to complain too much though since I was able to get the original 6 for a net of $40. Good videos. I’ve been watching your others too. Thank you.
Have you seen the 2020 blu ray releases from skywalker saga?
All covered on this channel already.
Do the originals contain the Specail Edtion changes?
JediPrime And all changes since. As I detail in the video, these are the 2011 cuts.
oh let me tell YOU quite the funny story Nathan Butler.
See back when these released in September, I bought the original trilogy on Blu-ray for myself, however I also bought the DVDs for a friend of mine. (He doesn’t have a Blu-ray player yet, although he has an HDTV)
Well when I opened the cases for my Blu-rays I noticed something.....off.
Although the packaging said: “Blu-ray + Digital Code” turns out, it included a DVD as well.
And on top of that, what looked to be the 2004 edition.
Factory error? Maybe.
Interesting? Absolutely.
Jackson Huffstetler I wonder if someone bought and returned it with a different disc inside, then it got re-shelved.
may end up waiting for the holidays for these ones I have them already and the digital verisons of all of them already I would like to get these dont get me wrong I love Star Wars I am a nut when it comes to Star Wars I hate that they dont have the turncated fanfares I wish they would add the fox fan fares back to the digital copies becouse that’s inconstant to me I will get these soon it would be better for disney to make a box set of all of these with the disc art including solo and rough one in the box with the digital copy codes
Quick question with the bonuses on the prequel trilogy do they have the DVD extras in digital form now, or are they exclusive to the 2000s DVDs?
It's a mixture of material. Not everything is carried over from 2001/2002, but there's some.
@@ChronoRadio dang it. :(
very informative. love your enthusiasm by the way! I'll be waiting on the 4K re-release... if it ever happens. If not, I have the complete saga box set and Disney+ so I'll get by on those.
Just picked these up today, got the buy 2 get 1 free at Target. No Return of the Jedi though, had to drive out to a Best Buy and they had one copy. ROTJ is backordered on Amazon, did they just not print enough of that particular movie?
senateguard33 No idea. Target site listed it out of stock immediately at launch.
What are the special features on bluray and dvd?
Tutos Violet On the BDs, only commentaries on most but not all. On the DVDs, none. Digital, same as the original digital releases. As I say often in the video, these are the same discs reissues. All previous specs apply.
Do the new Blu-ray’s of episode 1-6 still have the fox logo before this films start with the old Lucas film logo? Or are they replaced with the new silver one
Brandon Cetta It’s the exact same versions as since 2011. Nothing has changed.
I may have missed it but do the DVDs have the commentaries for the original 6?
No, none of the DVDs have commentaries. That ended once the 2011 cuts were put on DVD in 2013.
And iTunes has been replaced with AppleTV, so that info on the packaging makes even less sense.
Not entirely. iTunes is still used for purchases, for the computer platform, etc.
I have just the single disc DVDs of the originals and prequels, and the 2-disc Blu-rays of the sequels and anthology films. And I'm wondering, on your Return of the Jedi DVD, does the 20th Century Fox music cut out multiple times while it's showing the Lucasfilm logo? That's the case on my copy. I ordered all 6 of those DVDs from Amazon last December, and there aren't any technical issues at all on any of the other movies, and that's the only one present on the Jedi DVD. Nothing like it happens during the actual movie part. If it's on other copies besides mine, then it was clearly a glitch on the part of the Disney home media engineers when they manufactured the disc. But if it so happens that mine is the only copy with that error, then that's just about the biggest enigma I've ever encountered. I can only guess that the shipping process must've had something to do with it.
Did they ever release a prequels box set with all 3 films? I know they did the box set with films 1 & 2, but never saw a boxset after Sith was released.
Mick Shotton Yes. 2008 on DVD, 2011 on Blu-ray, then 2013 in a Blu-ray/DVD combo pack that was also reissued in 2017 as a Walmart exclusive.
Why did they remove the number order from the titles?
Well, this is the first time WDHV put out I - VI, so probably to bring them more into line with VII and VIII, which didn't heavily feature the number on their packaging previously, and with RO and Solo that don't have numbers at all.
@@ChronoRadio Dang. Makes sense, but I preferred when they were numbered.
Ok so i got Revenge of the sith and Rise of skywalker, and surprisingly they both came with Bonus disks
The only region where they don’t have the bonus disc in the Blu-ray package is the US.
How is the quality.??
Same as in every DVD or BD release since 2011, since they're the same discs with (in some cases) new labels.
Do you know if these will be coming you in the United Kingdom
We've seen no indication that it's happening yet. If it does, I wouldn't expect digital copies, since that doesn't appear to be a thing in the UK. So it would just be repackaged discs, which might mean Disney figured it's not worth it at this point.
Hey Nathan! My friend is getting into star wars, and wants to buy all 9 movies on DVD (specifically) should they get the original (2001-2005) Dvd releases for 1-6, or should they get the 2019 version?
Are you talking specifically about DVD, or is Blu-ray or 4K possible? That will make a difference.
Nathan Butler im talking about DVD specifically (they don’t have any blu Ray player)
For 1 - 3, the original 2001 - 2005 DVDs would be best, or the 2008 boxed set that includes all of those. For 4 - 6, it depends on what bonus content is desired. If behind the scenes or documentaries are the main focus, then the 2004 boxed set. If the "unaltered" versions of the films are preferable as bonus content instead, then the 2006 release for 2008 boxed set. The 2019 DVD releases have no bonus features whatsoever for any of the films.
Hey Nathan P Butler, do you know anything of a Star Wars complete saga set (1-9) coming out? Or if they ever made one that contained EVERY Star Wars film made (all live action and animated movies and tv shows)?
There is no official word at all yet on a 1 - 9 set, but one would expect to see something like that either Q2 next year when TROS hits home video or perhaps later in the year, depending on their marketing strategy. As for whether that would be Blu-ray, 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray, or options for both (unlikely in the same pack) is anyone's guess. Either way, it'll be a bit of a high price tag if/when that eventually happens. There has never been one, and probably won't ever be one, for the entire saga in physical form.
First, the distribution rights are a little murky right now, but I don't believe Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment has the physical distribution rights to the TCW film or Seasons 1 - 5 (only digital rights). There's better news at least for the Droids "films" (i.e. bastardizations) and Ewok telemovies and animated "films," given that the last time they were issued on home video in the U.S., it was through 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment (rather than MGM/UA in the case of the telemovies), which suggests that those rights also came over with the Fox entertainment asset sale to Disney.
Second, though, it would just be enormous and a relatively high price tag for what amounts to a niche package that would include elements that are Canon and other elements that are not (since the Ewok telemovies, Droids, and Ewoks are all Legends, not Canon), which would probably cause them to shy away from that. A better bet might be a set eventually of all of the Canonical stuff, but even then, it's unlikely. Right now, we're seeing Disney releasing their TV shows mostly just on DVD instead of any HD or UHD format, so for example we don't have a Blu-ray release of Resistance: Season 1, and we're starting to get rumblings that we may see Mandalorian: Season 1 in Q2 2020 also but only on DVD. If Disney stays true to form with that, it would mean any huge set would either be DVD or require new disc authoring, which also hurts the likelihood.
If nothing else, we can at least home that at some point, we'll see rights issues worked out so that eventually all Star Wars content will at least be on Disney Plus in the highest possible resolutions for each program.
They did the rise of skywalker in this template now i saw them in stores
In what region? US or elsewhere?
@@ChronoRadio I'm from the Netherlands, but i've seen 4k and blu ray copies of rise of skywalker in this black border template.
@@persoonophetweb2891 Gotcha. Yeah, I want to say you guys got them around the same time that the UK did. They didn’t get any of their black border releases until late last year, so they got TROS that way too. Now they are perpetuating in region B it appears.
do the discs still include commentary tracks at least?
They're the exact same discs as their original BD releases, so the OT ones include both commentaries from that release, whereas TFA and RO do not.
@@ChronoRadio thanks for the reply! :) I never bought any edition of Star Wars on Blu-ray before, so I wasn't very familiar with anything the prior releases included on the individual discs with the films. These new ones look pretty, but that's about it as far as I can see (I never took advantage of digital copies). So I might try and find that last complete saga collection. The one with Vader on the box 👍 I think my Target still has one.
My target had all but return of the Jedi Best Buy told me they were only available at Target but if you look at amazon they have some very odd release the target deal is good though it came to 135$ for 9 blu Ray for 20$ happy hunting
Wait. Your Best Buy told you that ROTJ was only available at Target? That's definitely not true, since my ROTJ (both of them) came from Best Buy.
No they said all of them are exclusive... to target very odd or they just didn’t wanna look in the back ...
in the future know that the own fox
Why do I have a feeling that we'll inevitably be seeing Individual Releases of the Remastered Blu-Rays & the Bonus Discs from the 4K Set?
Just the Blu-rays? Possibly, but the U.S. did this strangely. The ones we got in September that aren't the remastered ones are how the newly remastered discs are being released in other regions. It's a mess as far as these Blu-ray and DVD-only copies as you try to look region-to-region.
And you sir were correct!
@@Mike_Webb78 Yes I was
It’s disappointing that Each new video format doesn’t have all the Bonus Features. Hopefully when the 4K versions of the original 6 movie come out, Disney will have it be 2 Blu-Ray’s and one of those be a bonus features blu ray with all the Bonus features from the various different releases over the years. But who knows.
hpman152 the 4K set supposedly has remastered versions of the original Star Wars films from multiple film sources and has new special features from the Disney and Fox archives.
If so, that's going to be expensive!
Im purchasing the ot
But of course my favorite film is the hatdest to find
ROTJ? The good news is that now that we're past launch week, it seems that most stores that are stocking these (if at all) are now better stocked with ROTJ than they were at launch.
@@ChronoRadio ok thanks fo lr the good news
They did remove the feature film logo for force awakens
Nott true. Neither TFA Blu-ray release in the U.S. (or any of their reissues of the same discs) have ever said "feature film." The closest thing is that they all note the feature run time. There was nothing to remove.
Nathan Butler This is odd. I know episode IV was meant to be released under WDHE and all, but since Fox co-produced the 4th film back in 1977, wouldn't it make more sense to just credit the 20th century fox logo on A New Hope packaging rather then get rid of it all together?
@@Seras99 Well they own Fox now so they probably wanted uniformity all round.
Hey Nathan, have they ever released the original unaltered versions of the original trilogy on blu ray before.? If so, which ones do I need to try and find.? If not blu ray, DVD.? Thanks for any help and advice.
Blu-ray, no. On DVD, they released something very close. Pre-Special Edition but based primarily on 1993 THX remastered masters from the Definitive Collection. These were on DVD in letterbox widescreen format, included as bonus discs in the DVD releases from 2006 and 2008.
@@ChronoRadio thanks for replying man.! I’ll have to go find those versions then, can I ask what your personal preference is to when you watch the original films.? Whatever you think is best I will go that route, I trust your judgment, cheers.!
Are the putting them all on 4K yet?
McNastyboy69 No official word on that yet.
I would like for disney to release a new blue ray box set of all of these plus the dvds inside the set it would really help me not to have to get them double that I already have
Unfortunately, including a DVD with a Blu-ray release seems to be something that, at least in the U.S., is done for Disney, except via Disney Movie Club. Thankfully, these didn't have versions with DVD copies through DMC, so I didn't end up spending another $100 - 200.
but disney come on already release the theatrical cuts of 4 5 and 6 it nice having both cuts of a movie they could easily clean them up using our current technology
15:02 intro narrative to each clone wars episodes
Hour and a half lunch break?? Where'd you go? Golden Corral? Because there was a GC ad before your video.
Heh, nope. Just Bojangles, so I could get a meal for me with mashed potatoes to go with the baby's lunch. I didn't even realize Golden Corral was still really a thing. :)
@@ChronoRadio it is in the midwest. Anytime I go, I make sure to get a big helping of mashed potatoes and gravy.
You think there will ever be a proper non special edition blu ray?
I hope for such a release, but at this point I think it would take some serious changes on the Disney/LFL end to make that happen, unless it comes when they jump formats to 4K. I'd think it's more likely to be something they'd put in HD or 4K on Disney+ as yet another selling point for subscriptions.
+Nathan Butler I guess he's talking about HD releases of the OUT (Original Unaltered Trilogy) versions. I'd really like Lucasfilm/Disney to release them officially as well but it appears that isn't coming in the near future at this point. Which is why i am thus hanging onto my GOUT discs from the '06 Limited Editions for now to watch the original versions of the films even if they aren't the greatest quality visually speaking.
What gave you the impression that's not what I believed he was referring to? There's not really any other way to interpret "non special edition blu ray." What I'm saying is that typically they have stuck with the same masters over and over again, so the most likely opportunity to see a newly authored disc with what amounts to a new cut of the film (even if it's a restoration, an unaltered HD version doesn't exist in home media authored format yet) would be whenever they are making the effort to move between media types, when they are already tinkering and reauthoring discs or digital files anyway.
+Nathan Butler I'm honestly not sure what gave me said impression, unless i just plain wasn't thinking clearly when posting the above comment. Because what else could "proper non special edition" possibly be referring to? I mean, i'd really like for there to eventually be official high definition restored releases for the unaltered versions of the original trilogy as much as the next person. However, i'm not expecting that being any time in the immediate future given these reissues are more or less just the same versions released since 2011 repackaged yet again in new cases. Maybe they will come out at some point digitally or otherwise, who knows?
As i mentioned before, the GOUT bonus DVDs may not be the greatest in terms of video quality by being copies of 1993 laserdisc transfers but i'm just glad to have the original cuts in some form to watch. Seeing as they're the version i grew up watching on VHS as a child and thus preferring them over the Special Editions.
Why did we get the original soundtrack for the non special edition the ones with yub nub and lapti nek. But we cant get the original movies except for the 2006 or 2008 dvds
Very Cool covers but unless we get 4K releases and hopefully the original theatrical versions of the OT (hell I want every cut of every movie)
You didn't complete your thought there. Unless we get those . . . what? (I'm assuming you mean you won't pick them up unless we get those, right?)
Nathan Butler yes absolutely lol I was listening and typing at the same time
I like the poster art on the covers of these releases. However, there is a bit too much black on the edges. The images becomes a bit small as a result.
Oh boy
"Sam! Sam! You're here to change history and keep them from creating yet another reissue!"
"Al . . . I'm too late."
"Damn it, Ziggy!"

@@ChronoRadio gotta love Quantum Leap
These don't have the episode numbers on them this has been a perfect opportunity for Disney to put the episode numbers on their releases for Force awakens The Last Jedi but they missed out and they took off the episode numbers on the original six which is kind of sad
I wouldn't be surprised at all when the rise of Skywalker comes out on Blu-ray that they'll ignore the numbers all together or if the bring it back eventually
I don't mind that they took out the numbers
I figure it's so that Rogue One and Solo wouldn't clash as much (and then they made them clash anyway, spine-wise, etc.).
@@ChronoRadio i know right they tend to do that what the site stuff
Han will never shoot first again!
No a news corporation on the dvds
That is false for the U .S. releases. These were released in 2019, reissuing the same copies on Blu-ray as from 2011 and DVD from 2013, just with new labels. The films all still have "A New Corporation" on both the films themselves and the 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment animation that occurs between pressing "play" and starting the actual film. These do not use the 2019 Disney+ cuts that removed "A News Corporation" and appear on the black-bordered releases from other regions that weren't released until 2020. America jumped the gun on this and released the black-bordered versions early, resulting in a lot of confusion as to how the American copies relate to copies elsewhere.
The updated 2019 Disney+ cuts that dropped "A New Corporation" finally appeared in the U.S. in 2020, via the Skywalker Saga boxed set at Best Buy and the "Ultimate Collector's Edition" 4K/BD/Digital packs. Even today, the Blu-ray/Digital and DVD-only black-border releases in the U.S. generally continue to just be the reissued 2011 and 2013 discs with new labels. In other words, America got screwed on the black-bordered releases, except for the 4K/BD/Digital ones. There have been sporadic rumors that WDSHE has finally started to restock the BD/Digital and DVD-only packages in the U.S. with updated discs, but we've yet to see definitive proof of such, even when getting discs directly from WDSHE. Either way, it wouldn't impact the products in this video, which are from the massive reissue wave from Sept. 2019.
By the way , in Russia there was individual releases a couple years ago
ZoltonF I have tried one time to get Russian releases. It was a mess I never intend to repeat, though that is my language background from college.
Nathan Butler , I can try to help with Russian releases . if you have interest, let me know ;)
@@ZoltonF As soon as we're in better financial shape, I may do that. Are you in Russia yourself? I've had bad luck so far with trying to pick up Russian releases through eBay from Russian sellers because the products have never actually arrived, often never actually ever being sent at all.
Nathan , I’m Sorry to hear about your bad experience with purchases of Russian releases.
yes I’m from Russia.
There are a lot of fraud from Russian sellers, because of that I also have a problems with selling my position on eBay : buyers would buy disc with higher price than buy it from Russia, if they had such problems before:(
PS: sorry for my terrible English ;)
@@ZoltonF Your English is much better than what's left of my Russian language knowledge. I studied Russian for a year or so in college, but that was it. Now it has mostly faded away in the 17 years since.
I'm pissed that the blue rays don't have the truncated fan fares cause that makes the digital copies inconstant
You went through ALLLLL that comprehensive detailed information , showing all of the editions but don’t show a complete collection picture?
This series doesn't do still images or typically deviate from this particular camera angle, so that episodes can be produced as quickly as possible within the very limited time constraints of when I'm able to record and edit. So, no, but anyone familiar with this series shouldn't be expecting such a shot anyway.
Nathan Butler Yep I am new here. I wasn’t talking about still images necessarily. I mean you have all of the titles there with you it wouldn’t have been that much of a constraint of time. But I understand, if it’s not broke don’t fix it. It just would have been nice seeing all the different colors of the covers as they are seemingly all different. No worries though! Thanks for the courteous reply.
The only reason I would maybe get these is to have actual disc art on the first six for my complete saga set. Thanks for this video they look cool but not for me. :)
I'm torn. The images are nice to give them variety, but there was something simplistically elegant about the old ones. They just didn't match the newer films, so I guess this change was inevitible.
@@ChronoRadio yeah that's probably true. I do own the despecialized editions so I think I am good there, maybe if they are really cheap on Amazon.
For some of these, you would be better off finding the old releases of these movies.
I'd only say that for two of them, if you're talking about the current cuts: TFA and RO, which ditched the included DVDs in their old BD/DVD/digital packs to get these releases.
@@ChronoRadio I was talking about the prequel DVDs and the Blu-rays of the Disney Star Wars movies as some of thew previous releases included bonus discs for extras.
These particular cuts of the Prequel DVDs didn't exist in any packages with bonus features before, only in the 2013 and 2017 BD/DVD combo packs. Of course, then you got the BDs, but no bonus materials. I'm in agreement on the Disney era ones, though.
@@ChronoRadio I was referring to any cut of the movies and not the current ones.
When they release the jumbo box set they better not just make all the bonus features digital or I WILL BE PISSED.... Charing you to rebuy the discs and then shoving the features off to the digital
Agreed, though how they handle the bonus features will be a big factor in price. Let's say it's just the "Skywalker Saga" films. That's 9 discs . . . or 18. If it's bonus discs by trilogy like with the Complete Saga set, it's 12 discs. Then again, it could (I hope) end up all being 4K, and most 4K discs don't have any bonus features at all, unless it's commentary.
Nathan Butler I never bought the last time and my prequel trilogy got sullen and never had on bluray. So one last final shebang would be nice
Looks cool but I'll pass because all These will be Released on 4k within A few months!
There's zero actual confirmation of that, but perhaps sometime next year.
Hello America
Hello . . . Croatia? Did I guess it right based on the channel video titles?
Disney did buy 20th century Fox after all.
Not the company. They bought the company's entertainment assets.
There’s a Walmart exclusive 😫
Not that I've seen for these. In fact, none of the Walmarts in my vicinity even have these, let alone any kind of exclusive version. Have you seen something we haven't seen?
Yes!!! I was at my local Walmart and only found two copies of Empire Strikes Back. All it was it came with the same lithograph from those dvd releases years ago. I then went to two other Walmart’s and couldn’t find anything.
digipauk Odd. I will look around. Thanks.
Nathan Butler Is there a way I can send pictures?
@@jetsucks87 You can send via email (nathan@starwarsfanworks.com) or send through Facebook through my author page: facebook.com/nathanpbutlerauthor
Are these the unaltered versions, hahahahahahahahahahahahhaaaaa,shit!
Very boring disc art for Episode III. Of all the scenes you could have used you picked Anakin and Obi-Wan standing around talking?
It's a Decent Image but I would've gone with that Image of Anakin marching towards the Temple with the Clone Troopers or the Mustafar Duel.
Never buying any of these again on any format until the Theatrical Editions are released. I can't stomach the Special Edition garbage.
