Monday was an exciting day for me (other than The Big Race)… the Star Wars trilogy came out on dvd.

I’ve been dying to watch Star Wars again for ages, but only have it on video … and no self-respecting geek watches videos any more.

I’ve watched them through now, and George Lucas has made quite a few changes… and they’re all good … (despite the angry rantings of geeks worldwide as they riot in the streets), they all make it a better trilogy.

One thing that did disappoint me slightly was the box it came in … boxsets are for geeks … and geeks will pay extra to get something just that little bit more special. With the Alias, Buffy, Angel etc series, they gave decent boxsets. With Star Wars, it’s just a cheap flimsy card box, with 4 normal dvd cases inside. Pretty lazy I thought.
