You can read the article here, as well as on page 1D of the paper edition.       It's news that I've known about for a little while now, but it's great that the DVD set's release has finally been confirmed in a mainstream newspaper! -G
So they release a DVD Box Set of the first three movies now, when they are making Indy IV next year? I'll be glad for the extras disc, but I'm left wondering if they'll eventually release a 2nd Box Set after Indy IV...
And for three credit hours, here at the Hollywood school of business, we proudly offer: Raping Your Fans the Star Wars and Matrix Way, taught by none other than George Lucas himself and assisted by Larry and Andy Wachowski. Fee: $564.00* *please note, George Lucas, while teaching the class, will not actually be present at any of the physical classes - in fact, he never even saw the syllabus. However, to make up for this nonpresence, for an additional $400.00 on top of the class fee, you will recieve an autographed picture of Mr. Lucas - though unfortunately, the picture will not actually be signed by him. And for an additional $700.00 on top of the picture price, you will get the actual picture that Mr. Lucas originally had taken, not the remade version that he claims is better that you get at the lower level. And finally, for still another $900.00 on top of the original photo price, you will recieve all the homework assignments needed in order to pass the class written by the Wachowski boys and were not available to those that paid only the original class price.
As long as nothing is changed to make it "better" its all good. Spielberg had the guns changed to radios in ET, and that just pisses me off.
True, but the point remains that he screwed up his own movie because he thought in his almighty god-complex ways that he was a better person because of his good deeds for the world. There are thingsw that shouldn't be messed with at all. Those hunters looking for E.T. had guns, and Jabba The Hut can't walk. Period. End of discussion.
