This September, Lucasfilm and 20th Century Fox are finally going to release the original Star Wars movies on dvd. Each movie will be released individually in a 2-disc version that contains the re-release version that was released in 2004 and the original version released in theaters.

I’ve been hoping that they would release the movies this way since the re-done versions came out, but I feel dirty about this. I bought this trilogy on vhs when they remastered them the first time in the 90’s. Then they released the remastered version on vhs in letterbox, so I bought that too. Then I bought the trilogy when it was finally released on dvd. Now I plan on buying this version because I’ve been waiting for it, and it’s only available for a limited time, September through December.

I’m sure this isn’t going to be the last version of these movies that I buy either. With hd-dvd and blu-ray discs coming out soon, and the 3-D versions in the works, I might just have to admit that I have a Star Wars problem, before this goes too far.
