Since nothing else is going on, I say we schedule an EB outing in the morning and all go see Yogi Bear together in 3D. It costs a little more, but it's worth it.

I'm about to go to bed, everyone promise to call me if these go on sale and make sure that you hold a set of the originals for me, that happens here right? Good luck and happy hunting to everyone. Now off to bed with my tweetdeck alert turned on full blast.

For sure. Denver pretty central for everyone?
I just finished watching Episode IV on dvd

I need to get these movies on DVD. It's cool having them on VHS and Laserdisc but those joints don't exactly work on my iMac. They made DVDs of the un-ruined-by-old-man-lucas versions right?

yea. I forget but a couple years ago there was a dvd set of both the originals and the updated. Unfortunately I have the newer versions. that means I have to see jabba the hut and boba fett in episode IV. fudge throws me off

The theatrical versions were included on the two disc releases a few years ago, but they were horrible copies--formatted for 4x3 televisions in letterbox, so on a modern widescreen display you get a small central widescreen image surrounded by black bars on all four sides. I don't think we will ever get a proper release of the theatrical editions while Lucas is alive.

This is gonna be embarrassing but here's my exact model of tv so 4:3 would be just fine

It's in the bedroom, we don't have another tv in our house, we don't watch tv very much you guys!

I do have a top of line imac and I just got my wife a macbook air though so.... yeah... still pretty lame. I should get a proper tv.

I truly feel bad for the folks who have been forced to already put the Stout Wars set in their Wanted section. I guess they're afraid they'll have no chance tomorrow? Also too bad none of them have a Locke's Secret or Ghost Ship to trade (or an OG Danger or McCarthy).

A lot of people are willing to pay the aftermarket tax in order to not sit through drops. Hell if I had money falling out of my butthole you best believe I'd take 'er real easy tomorrow and snag both sets off the bay when I got around to lookin at the computer. Folks toss upcoming stuff into their ISOs all the time, don't shed too many tears for them

There will not be a late night drop.

I'm waiting for this drymounting screen to dry so I can burn the thing real quick and go to bed. Super smart idea to coat a screen this late at night

Haha. Time for a new one. You say something as funny as the tranny refusing to grow old joke please.
