Star wars deleted scene

A report of the video entertainment site “VideoETA”, a news and information portal for new publications on the DVD market is fueling speculation that the Star Wars series would appear to match the 30-year anniversary soon on Blu-ray Disc.

The author of the report took a passage from the Quarterly Report of toy manufacturers “Hasbro to”: “[...] Looking ahead, Verrecchia said he expected Star Wars to continue to be a strong performer with Lucas planning a video release for this year’s 30th anniversary, a Star Wars animated TV show next year and a live-action Star Wars TV show in 2009. “Under continued:” He and his studio have a lot going on over the next several years to support the franchise. ”

Only in 2004 appeared the “Star Wars” episodes on DVD, although at that time, the market share of DVD was already relatively high. The fact that there are already high definition master tapes for all six parts, has been proved with the broadcasting of any part in the German pay TV channel PremiereHD end of last year. Rapid implementation of a successor to the DVD-media could very well be possible. At the moment, but can not be said that the fact that Blu-ray or the competing HD-DVD technology on the market are remarkable dissemination. It remains so until the 30-year anniversary on 25 May be seen what kind of gift to the fans it will be eventually.
