Star Wars V: The Empire Strikes Back (Limited Edition) [DVD]

This was a great watch.The movies were very entertaining and fun.This was a good buy as was well worth the money.A seriously great film.I would recommend it.

Great job

Easy to play, Easy viewing, good product

Packaging/Case: This product (along with the other 5, which I have also) is a beautiful steelbook. the 'STAR WARS' is embossed and the rest of the case has a gloss finish. The spines match up perfectly and look uniform on any shelf. overall a very nice, well made set. Finally these products come packaged in a paper/card with information (not a slip cover). Interior and Disc: There is Disc art on each disc, matching the cover. Their is magnificent artowork on the interior of each case, in 'Empire Strikes Back' the battle of Hoth is featured. no manuals or paperwork of any kind. Contents: Each movie comes with only 1 disc. the disc features commentary and the movie only. Overview: Thke movies themselves look great on blu ray, I will not go into detail here, as they can be found all over the internet. I can see this set being appealing to only 2 types of people. Individuals who have not picked up the 'Star Wars: The Complete Saga' (Like myself) or collectors who would like these stunning steelbooks for their star wars collections. For a casual buyer who loves Star Wars or blu ray, as good as this set is the price is very steep for the same movies in different packaging, particularley if you own the blu rays already. For this reason I can't give 5 stars. Ps: these are the digitally enhanced versions.

Great movie

Like many other Star Wars fans i was not that impressed with many of the changes George Lucas made in the digitally remastered versions, even if the overall quality of the image was improved. My old from-TV VHS recordings are long gone, and i've been waiting since then (circa 1990) to get hold of a DVD version of the original, pre-remastered, films for the original trilogy. This is that version. A two disk set with both the remastered and original film version in the case. With the slew of Star Wars re-releases we've had over recent decades it's been hard to tell the wood from the trees in relation to getting the original films, so here are a few pointers to help. For the second film, Star Wars Episode V, The Empire Strikes Back: 1. The ASIN code is: B000FMH8US 2. The code on the base of the spine is: 3392001001 3. The cover is as shown in the amazon listing for this review, with the 'Limited Edition' banner in gold along the top. 4. On the back it will say: "Disk 2: Original theatrical (1980) version of The Empire Strikes Back" Now i've seen people remark that the quality of the original version is terrible, and i can't agree. Maybe we have become too used to over-saturated HDR and computer enhanced visuals? Certainly my viewing of the original versions in this set was no different to the VHS version i had previously or the countless times i watched it on TV as a kid. It's an old film, and these are old recordings of an old film, but in no way is the quality so bad as to ruin your enjoyment of the best of sci-fi stories in film. It is also possible to adjust the settings on most modern TV sets, or even in the software you use if viewing on your PC to get the 'best' viewing you can, i had to darken it slightly to suit my TV, but in general these are not destroyed by blurring or artifacts, certainly no more than the original film was. And finally, thank you George Lucas for eventually listening to the many Star Wars fans that really wanted these versions, it's been a longtime coming, but awesome none the less.

Class

Firstly, the 3 stars was for the prompt service. Had this been the 'original version' I would have given it 5 stars. For any prospective purchasers.. BEWARE! These three reissued films... Star Wars, Empire & Jedi are the DVD versions of the 'special editions' from 1997 (& the fairly recent boxset with Vader on the cover). They very cleverly (or cynically) removed the 'special edition' wording from the 1997 cover. If you (like I) want the original theatrical versions, then look for the 'limited editions'.

Da grande fan della saga non potevo non prendere questa fantastica versione, oltretutto, questo è il mio film preferito della saga. Come detto con gli altri 2 steelbook, ottima edizione in Blu ray, ottima scelta di inserire i poster originali nel retro della custodia! Sul film non c'è molto da dire, stesso disco presente nel Box Blu-Ray del 2011-2015, senza però i contenuti speciali. Prezzo molto conveniente e servizio perfetto, come sempre, da Amazon! Se siete collezionisti e amate la saga non lasciatevi scappare questa grande edizione, peccato contenga l'edizione speciale, tristemente famosa per le aggiunte di Lucas. Film fantastico, video ottimo e audio anche, peccato per l'assenza dei contenuti speciali.

Can’t beat $10 for the steel case of the best movie in the Star Wars catalog.

Très bien

Très bonne remasterisation
