At Last!

Now my son and I can spend some really important quality time doing a six episode Star Wars marathon. I’ll never have to explain Episode V and VI again! And no kid, those are my toys at grandma’s not yours.

Timeout.com :Geeks the world over have reason to celebrate today – George Lucas has finally listened to their pleas and is releasing the original versions of the 'Star Wars' trilogy on DVD.

On September 11, two-disc sets of 'Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope', 'Episode V The Empire Strikes Back' and 'Episode VI Return of the Jedi' will hit the streets, featuring the digitally restored and re-mastered versions of the movies.

And as bonus material, they will also include the Holy Grail for true 'Star Wars' fans - the original theatrical versions of the films.

Yes Mom, it is the same poster from my bedroom wall.
