Star Wars DVDs
Hell freezes over. Star Wars
movies coming out on DVD. I guess George Lucas finally decided he needed a new mansion.
Lucasfilm arrived at the September 21st date to gain maximum exposure during the holiday season: "We sold about 17 million VHS 'Star Wars' units during two fall release periods in '95 and '97," he explained. "With that in mind, we designed our release strategy to pick the best release date that had the most gentle sales curve decline on home video."
Don't you love how the studios continue to milk these movies from geeks and freaks like us. I mean how many of you have the VHS versions that will jump on these DVDs? Just like the theater version AND extrended version of LOTR movies.
