I would suggest not giving the government any more money. But what do I know?
Why do people have a problem with Lucasfilm making money? It's a legimate film studio as any other is. So why single them out? You wouldnt say, "Don't give Warner/Paramount/Fox/Universal any more money."
Lucasfilm makes product to market and sell. That's the American way, unless you're a Obamamaniac...where you believe everyone should give their money to the government for it to decide how to spend it.

Why? Because making money is evil or something?
In that case...don't pay your taxes everybody...don't give this rat trap of a government any more money.
Actually because I don't Like George Lucas: horrible writing, over bloated universe, new editions every other year and digitally re-writing the entire movie in post production cus he cannot direct. Silly L6E painting everything politically.
And of course b*****dizing green screen.
Oh, just because YOU don't like Lucas' writing, you don't think they deserve monetary compensation from those who accept it or at least ambivalent to it?
Have you heard of the free market? If somebody makes something to sell, but people don't buy it, then that person/entity fails. But if enough people do buy it, then the entity succeeds.
I don't particulary care for Joss Whedon's work. But I don't go around saying, "Don't give Joss any more money." Why? Because it's not for me to decide. I'm not everyone. Everyone has their own choice to make. No one is forcing anyone to buy anything...oh wait, well maybe Obama is with his Obamacare, but that's besides the point.

What we were all holding out for! I bet no one bought the other DVD so they decided to bite the bullet and make this.
Bout time! Series was ok but it was not worth buying each volume when this was on the horizon...
Seein' Cody on the front sold it for me. Definite Blu-Ray buy haha. Commander Cody is a beast.

Some valid points Sam. All i would like is the original films untampered with on blu-ray, anamorphic, clear as crystal. Anything prequel related is pure bantha fodder and given a choice i wouldn't pay my yaxes either.

Umm, yes, but that's what you call a flashback episode. But in any case, that was the only episode of the 22 that was like that, so to say, "I hope the episodes are in chronological order" is a bit ridiculous especially when the original movie will probably won't be included anyway. So here's what you do...watch "Hidden Enemies" first...then watch the movie...then watch the rest of the series...problem solved.

What are you talking about? They're fitting 6 discs in single amarray cases these days for full season TV shows. A disc on each outer flap, and then two double-sided flaps in the in middle.
Quote: I saw the first 3-4 episodes and then tuned out. The movie was ok, but like the prequels, this does not have much of a replay value.
That's too bad that you tuned out. The series got better and better as it went along. In fact, Season 2 looks to be amazing. Much more darker with the emergence of the Bounty Hunters, which made their debut in the Season One finale as well as the Mandalorians.
I haven't yet bought the prequels. Still hoping for the 40th anniversary editions, now that the 30th anniversary edition went by without anything![/quote]

Huh? You didn't know it came out? You mean, ever aired? Geez...if that's so, what rock you been living under? Started airing last October. Season 2 starts airing this coming October.

I liked the episodes I saw. I like the show better than the other Clone Wars series.
I haaate digibooks, but now I'll finally have to buy one. Damn. Loved this season though (a lot more than the movie), so I must have it. 
They'll most likely re-instate "hell" in the "Rookies" episode, right? Some dumb parents complained when the initial airings included the word, so it was removed from later airings. *rolls eyes*

I was thinking about waiting for a Complete Series big old box set but I imagine it will cost a fortune and some of the artwork include in the season sets will probably omitted. Being a fan just about anything Star Wars, I'm down with this. Caught most of the episodes but just didn't.
Looks like we're gonna need a biggie bookshelf!

4-disc DVD and 2-disc Blu-ray[/quote:
what the hell??
22 episodes across 2 Blu-Ray discs???
22 Episodes come out to around 8 hours. 4 hours per disc isn't too bad for an animated show (Watchmen: The Complete Motion Comic was 5.5 hours on one disc). The 22 featurettes will probably only be in SD though.

At the Star Wars Comic-con panel the creator mentioned that when the episodes are completed they are sometimes 2-3 minutes too long for broadcast TV. That is where they are getting the seven directors cut episodes from.
never watched the show, but i do like that cover.

Will the movie be included I wonder. Hate the book design, they did the same with Natural Born Killers. It's big and bulky case sticks out on the shelf >

The Complete Season One... Wait, what??
i liked this and would get it but i'm a sucker for complete collections and i rather wait the 4/5yrs and just get a complete series thingy.
unless of the course the ratings dip and its cancelled and they just release all they have early.

I love how it matches the BestBuy steelbook of the movie. This took a while to grow on me, but I like it well enough, and as a die-hard Star Wars fan, of course I'm picking this up.
I wonder what they mean by Director's cut. I'm not trying to sound stupid obviously, I know the general definition of Director's cut is. I'm just interested in what these directors cuts will be like.
