George Lucas officially announces Star Wars on Blu-ray in 2011

announces Star Wars on Blu-ray in 2011 via Engadget HD by Richard
Lawler on 8/14/10
As rumored, all six Star Wars movies will be released together on
Blu-ray in 2011 for the 35th anniversary of the release of A New Hope.
George Lucas personally announced the set on stage at the Celebration V
event, and showed off a deleted scene from Return of the Jedi that will
be included (embedded after the break.) While the "highest picture and
audio quality" and extensive special features are promised, what won't
make it to Blu-ray are the original versions of the movies; Lucas told
the New York Times that only the special editions will be included,
since restoring the original versions in high enough quality would cost
too much. No word on price, release date or any plans to release the
films individually, but if you can stand living in a world where Greedo
shot first then this will certainly be on next year's shopping list.
