This 2005 three-disc edition of George Lucas's Star Wars Trilogy is basically the same set as the 2004 edition minus the bonus fourth disc. That means you get the three original films--A New Hope (1977), The Empire Strikes Back (1980), and Return of the Jedi (1983)--in their brilliant-looking and -sounding DVD glory. That means you also get both the changes that were made for the 1997 special-edition versions as well as the revisions that were made for the films' DVD debut, including Hayden Christensen (Anakin Skywalker) being added to a scene in Jedi, Ian McDiarmid (the Emperor) replacing Clive Revill with slightly revised lines in Empire, and Temuera Morrison rerecording Boba Fett's minimal dialogue, plus some other small details.
The discs don't qualify as bare-bones because they do include the commentary tracks recorded by Lucas, Ben Burtt (sound design), Dennis Muren (visual effects), and Carrie Fisher (Leia), plus Irvin Kershner added for The Empire Strikes Back. But what you lose is the fourth disc's 150-minute documentary Empire of Dreams: The Story of the Star Wars Trilogy, the three substantial featurettes ("The Characters of Star Wars," "The Birth of the Lightsaber," and "The Force Is with Them: The Legacy of Star Wars"), the Xbox sampler, the no-longer-exciting Episode III preview, and other odds and ends. Star Wars aficionados will certainly stick with the four-disc set, but casual fans might be satisfied with this lower-priced version. --David Horiuchi

The Trilogy was taken off of the big screen and placed on my little screen!
This is wonderful, and it is faithful to the entire trilogy in-theatre.

These movies are the top example of the best movies ever possibly made. This set includes extra bonus scenes that were not shown in the movie. This set of Star Wars trilogy brings back memories of when I first watched the film. I don't know why you would rate this three and below, who cares if there is not extra stuff in this set this is close to the original so it works for me.
Rating: -
Excellent. It will be great if we can have Star Wards I, II and III in a set too.

Star Wars is not just for men who grew up in the 70's and 80's. My kids love it!

For anyone interested in sci-fi this is the series to own. Great scenery, action and story-line.
