I need to start doing better researching when Blu-rays or DVDs are coming out.  I use to have a site that at least told me when stuff was coming out.  I either lost the link or the site went down.

I use a number of different sites, local and international. And I also have Amazon send me emails informing me when pre-orders can be placed for certain titles. But I think in the case of the Star Wars I'm going to have to wait until they are released in Australia as 20th Century Fox region lock the majority of their Blu-ray titles.

I've signed up to be notified when a few titles are released from Amazon before.

It's a pretty good system. I do really whish their members card wasn't just for US citizens, the amount of money I could save makes my mouth water.

Regarding info on stuff coming out, there's one site I like that gives out info on just when TV stuff is coming out on DVD and Blu-ray.  It's called TVShowsOnDVD.com.

I felt a bit strange doing so (almost 9 months ahead of time)... I also pre-ordered the 6-disc set, as it comes with three freew coasters for the drinks. :P

Coasters = Episodes I through III?

 :laugh:

I'll probably get the set...I'm just not preordering yet.

Well that's makes sense, you'll need a large amount of alcohol to get through episodes I - III.  :laugh:

I don't mind I - III that much....except for Anakin.  He's too much of a whiny ass to become Vader.  I do think III is the best of I - III.
I do like the original trilogy better of course..but I wasn't as....critical of the new movies as some.  I still enjoyed them....even when Anakain annoyed me so much I wanted to reach into the screen and slap the shit out of him.

Anakin was such a little bitch. I swear Lucas must have had a crush on him because how an actor can get away with such an awful performance in two movies is beyond me.
And I agree episode III is the best one. The one thing I do like about all three are the light saber duels, they are very well done.

Yup...the light saber duels were awesome..especially the one in III between Anakain/Vader and Obi Won. 

I've seen one or two other movies with Hayden Christopher..think that's his name... Anyway..he has not impressed me at all with his attempts at acting.

I love the duel in episode 1 between Obi Won and Darth Maul, it's short but so intense!

Hayden Christensen in Life as a House wasn't too bad and it was a very good movie after all.

That was Qui Gon..the one played by Liam Neeson.  Obi Won  was stuck behind some force field thing.  Then Obi Won promised that he'd train Anakin.

I think he does mean the little bit after Qui-Gon gets impaled and Obi-Wan finally realizes his potential ;)
