Flanked by a legion of his finest Imperial Stormtroopers, Darth Vader himself joined Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment President Mike Dunn at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) to announce the release, vowing "The forces of the Empire will be at your disposal to assure the success of this endeavor.''
"The Star Wars Saga is the most anticipated Blu-ray collection since the launch of the high-def format," Mike Dunn said. "The epic franchise pioneered sound and visual presentation in theaters and is perfectly suited to do it again in the home, with a viewing experience only possible with Blu-ray."
"With all six episodes available for the first time in one collection, this is a great way for families and home audiences to experience the complete Saga from start to finish," said Doug Yates, Vice President of Marketing, Online, Distribution, Lucasfilm Ltd. "And with the quality of high-definition, Blu-ray provides the most immersive home experience possible."
"The Star Wars franchise has been one of the most anticipated Blu-ray releases by Amazon's customers," said Bill Carr, Vice President of Music and Video at Amazon. "We think that Star Wars will be incredibly popular with our customers, and we expect pre-orders to be very strong."
Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope was released May 25th, 1977 and stars Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Peter Cushing, Alec Guinness, Anthony Daniels, Kenny Baker, Peter Mayhew. The film is directed by George Lucas.

I do not LIKE the "special edition" versions of 'Star Wars' (1977), 'Empire Strikes Back' (1980), and 'Return of the Jedi' (1983). Yes, they're the "same" as the original theatrical cuts for the most part -- but they're also coated with new digital junk and pointless little distractions!!!

Original Blu-ray Trilogy is what I may purchase, Even if Han Solo did shoot first, but that's likely as much perversion as I can deal with so the prequels wont get a look in {:)

I've got the VHS and DVD versions. Now it's HD, then it'll be 3D
I may or may not get HD or 3D, but who knows it might be slightly better.
All I really want is another trilogy

@Furankisan George Lucas will NEVER release the the originals again. We were lucky to get them on DVD a few years back, but Lucas has stated time and time again that he will not release the originals again, no matter how much the fans whine about it.

PS let's not forget another double dip when the ORIGINAL Trilogy goes to BR and then final cash cow the whole trilogy on BR 3D like anyone going to give a crap by then. Sony doesnt get it at CES about 3D shoving it down our throats. WE DON"T CARE!....I'm just saying.lol

Can't wait to see Luke wearing his Gilligan's Island's hat in BR. But for that price it should come with a t-shirt saying: LUCAS GOT ME AGAIN> LOUSY HUMAN BASTARD!

I wouldn't mind if they fixed the lightsabers in the Original Trilogy, but there's going to be a lot of butt hurt fanboys whining about it.

but like james'avatar.. he wants to milk these StarWars box sets i'm sure. next he'll bring out the 3d version too and make more money off us.

lol @The Narrator, nah not really. So if blu-ray can hold alot of data on its disc. why cant they just put the org film on that and the special edition on that at the same time? kinda like beauty & the beast special edition, it has the old movie and a special edition all on 1 dvd, u can pick which version u wanna watch. i know sumthing like this can b done w bluray, and add even more to the disc if needed. that would b an all time seller to all fans even would beat the avatar sell out.

@K-Man you misunderstand me: I meant to say that the Jabba scene was the only changed scene that turned me off. The others don't bother me a bit and, in a way, help the movie. @JasonKat, go away.
