Customer Ratings & Reviews

I really must disagree with dtssyst's review of this PRODUCT. This should not be a review of the MOVIE, but a review of the PRODUCT as a whole. I love this movie, and I anxiously await the extended edition release, but for now I choose to send a message by submitting a rating of ONE STAR, because I do not approve of trying to squeeze money out of consumers, only to release it AGAIN with the extended edition months later. They already pulled this trick on DVD. Both theatrical and extended editions would fit in one Blu-ray collection, and they should release it as such. Rate the product, not the movie. And this product deserves one star. Do yourself a solid and just wait for the extended edition folks.

"I love these movies. They are my favorite films of all time. I watched all of these in the theater and was thrilled from the beginning to the end of each film. This steelbook holds six of the nine disc. The three disc that don't fit into the case are the digital copy disc. No loss as mine will just go into the trash becasue I don't use them. I am only interested in the first six disc. If this was the SW trilogy everyone would be excited and pleased to have the original theatrical versions. Releasing theater cuts not only honors the films but the makers of the films as well. I feel this way for the Lord of the Rings Trilogy and any other film for that matter. I am getting this set (with steelbook) and can't wait to see these films in HD. However, I am unhappy that this version does not include the extended versions of the films via seamless branching. It is something that could have been done and, in my book, it should have been done. Once they are available, I will get the extended versions as they are the best way to watch these films. BUT, to pay for the trilogy again for the extended cuts and the rest of the extras that should be included with this set is just plain greedy. Shame on the people behind this. Also, shame on those who post little to no stars for this film trlogy just because it is only the theatrical versons. Rate the films for the films and its extras and not what the powers at be are doing to our pocket book. Then give your personal opinion and thoughts on what you think as I have done above."

why buy the theatrical version of this film when the extended version is right around the corner. i'm not paying twice for this movie! corporate greed at it's finest. do not buy this movie unless you got an endless cash flow.

Apparently steelbook is a generic term and not a descriptive term
