Star Wars Celebration
Though nearly 35 years of “Star Wars” fandom have yielded all kinds of memorabilia inspired by George Lucas’s outer-space epic, including light saber look-alikes and wearable reproductions of Princess Leia’s slave costume, one holy grail has lately eluded fans: a video version of the “Star Wars” films that takes the fullest advantage of their top-of-the-line home theater systems.
That’s a Death Star-size void that Lucasfilm plans to fill shortly. On Saturday, the studio announced that it will release all six live-action “Star Wars” features on Blu-ray DVD in fall 2011. A boxed set containing the Blu-ray versions of the movies, from 1977’s “Star Wars” through the final 2005 prequel, “Star Wars: Episode III — Revenge of the Sith,” will mark the first time the films have been offered in a high-definition home format, and will include documentary features and previously unseen footage.
