Thank goodness you can buy each trilogy seperately! I was worried it would only be a "complete saga" set!
^ You can see the official press release at the above link. From what The Digital Bits reported, it sounds like the presentation didn't even offer as much information as was contained within the press release. I would assume that if the non-special edition versions were in the OT set, it would be only as "special features" again, rather than any cleaned up versions we would want to see.
Awww, the innocence. It's so cute. 
You're aware this is George Lucas we're talking about, right?

Great news.
Eh. I wish I could get excited, I really do.
That make pills for that now.
He could have made more money out of it releasing the original three films seperately. No one would have complained - paying a decent price for a decent film. x3. But instead a single boxset is cheaper. And they could have come out a lot earlier.
I can't wait to see these. I'll probably wait until the sets are cheap on Black Friday 2011, though.
If you want extras, you only get them in the "complete saga" set.
Plus I don't get why people are claiming that they are getting milked. It's a new format, so I would expect a new release. Do people claim that Francis Ford Coppola is milking the Godfather? I can find multiple releases of it across multiple formats.
Indeed. This isn't "milking" it's being released on a new format, nothing else.
Now, it is milking if there's a better/more feature-laden edition released a few years down the road on Blu-Ray.

Any word on whether the Blu-Ray version of TPM will have the new version of the CGI Yoda? Apparently they did some tweaking to the CGI model after the first DVD came out.
Agreed. Lucas could've milked the Hell out of the video releases and hasn't. They'd make a mint out of selling the original "Han shoots first" versions in anamorphic DVD (beyond their previous 'ugly' release of them) and blu-ray and they haven't for whatever reason.
I'm the opposite....I love the SE's. And I'm 40.

Except that we know that this is exactly what will happen. I expect these initial releases will be bare-bones to leave maximum room for future releases.
