I realised before that I`ve watched the Star Wars trilogy hell knows how many times but I`ve never ever seen any of the trailors!!! Will these be included in the new boxset?

They are probably going to be remastered to fit in with GL latest (whatever it happens to be this month) vision. :p

If Indiana Jones, Back to the Future, and E.T. is anything to go by, we`ll get one trailer, but my guess it will be one special edition trailer for each film, and not the originals.

I have the bootlegs of the original trilogy and they has all the teaser and theatrical trailers, and the trailers are very interesting, especially with Empire where it has a few scenes in the trailers that didn`t make it to the final film.

TBone certainly has a good site there - the deleted scenes of all 5 films so far are worth a read too.

The trailers from the 1993 The Definitve Collection are pretty cool - esp as there are (IIRC) 2 REVENGE Of The Jedi trailers on it. Trailers have certainly come a long way over the years though!

Excellent.. I`ve always wanted to see the little clip (as short as it may be in the trailer) of 3PO peeling the warning sticker off the Wampa prison.
