If you zoom in on the picture of the First Order it looks like one of the villains is wearing a silver Darth Vader helmet.

replacing Sebastian Shaw as Anakin actually makes sense because it makes it clear to audiences it's Anakin and it also makes it seem like he's been 'restored' to being Anakin, not Vader.

No, it doesn't, because he was restored right before he died. He killed Palpatine. "You already have, Luke. You already have."
It's totally unclear to an audience who might decide to watch the movies in original release order for the first time, which most would probably agree is the best way to do it, since there are a lot of references in the PT you wouldn't get if you hadn't seen the OT. This is another change that was not in the '90s Special Editions but was added to the "Extra Special" Editions. Last edited by JediJones; 08-11-2015 at 07:31 AM.. |

Sadly, it doesn't look like we'll be getting the unaltered Original Trilogy on blu ray this year. They're re-releasing the special editions on blu ray in November in all new, steelbook packaging. Blu-ray News – Star Wars pre-orders are open, plus Toy Story That Time Forgot, Mad Men & Dressed to Kill delay
The special editions are just unwatchable to me now. As soon as that lump of cgi shit that is Jabba shows up in A New Hope, it just takes me out of the movie and I can't watch it from that point on. So I'll go watch the sequels in the movie theater, but I'll never watch the originals until we get the real versions on blu ray. |

Almost wondering if the Disney buyout included a clause that the original theatrical editions can't be published again until George Lucas passes on or something. Because there never would have been a better time to release them than right before the start of the new trilogy you want the old-school fans on board for and saying nice things about on the internet. |

I'd hope they were the unaltered cuts, but there's no way they wouldn't announce that right off the bat. The pre-order price has already gone up on some sites. According to the official info, not only are they the same blu rays that were released a couple years ago, but there's no new content with them at all. Kind of sucks that there isn't even an extended trailer for Episode VII on them. Even something from SDCC would have been great to see.
I love steelbooks, but my fear in getting these is that they wouldn't keep the same look, or even have steelbooks initially for the sequels. The only way that I would have considered buying them is if they'd have used the artwork that's on the back of them, on the front: |

Yeah, EW has several pics up today, many of which are new (at least in terms of public release).
