Eh. I don't mind it. It's the last what, 10 seconds of the movie? Won't ruin the movie or series for me.

Can't wait to have these movies on DVD. Too bad we didn't have a choice to view the movies in their original format....oh well.

Awesome!
One thing though - the Empire chapter menu's have the chapter names listed, wonder why these don't?
Because these menus came from the bootleg DVD rip, and the rip is of an international version of the film. I believe the international DVDs of Star Wars don't have the titles. Only Region 1 DVDs of Star Wars have the title.

I wonder if we'll finally see the starwars.com promo trailer that was on the 2000 VHS re-release of the OT. It had scenes from all four films [at the time] set to Duel of the Fates. Gives me goodbumps everytime.
Despite all these changes, I'm really starting to looking forward to having these on DVD. I just noticed in Target today they had several affordable DVD recorders, so I need to start saving my allowance and doing some research for my eventual LD rips.
But I'm still giddy at the though of these in 16x9 and 5.1, yummy!

there are already LD rips of the definitive collection that can be found on a well known bittorrent site, what it is i can't say due to the rules.

Milo, if transferring the OT from LD to DVD is the only reason why you want to get a recorder, there are other ways to get the OT (in anamorphic, but DD 2.0, though, not 5.1)....
*edit* looks like sureAV421 beat me to it...

I've got tons of other stuff I want to archive too, this is just the icing on the cake.
