Star Wars DVD Bonus Features Review - Page 2

A brief nine-minute preview of "Episode III" focuses on Darth Vader and how he will come to be. Another "Episode III" item include a look at how the video games come together (6:09) while XBox owners can check out a playable demo (non-owners can watch a trailer) for "Star Wars Battlefront." Supposedly never-before-seen production photos are split up between the three films and are beyond extensive. Each photo comes with a caption explaining what you're looking at. Finally, for those who need view everything related to the movies, an exhaustive trailer gallery is featured and includes countless TV spots.

On a final note, a raise should be in order for those who created the menus for this set. "Empire" features a fully rendered Luke and Vader in a lightsaber fight as you browse through the chapters, an ingenious way to create some excitement before the movie even begins. The other discs in the box are just as good.

    no criticism that absolutely no "never-seen-before" footage was included outside of the "Empire of Dreams" documentary? Even that didn't include an exorbitant amount that wasn't on the A&E edition.. it had "just enough" to satisfy...

    In the picture gallery, they include plenty of pictures of deleted scenes, behind the scenes stuff, etc. It was a tease and 1/2. I wish they had put in the deleted & unfinished scenes like they did with the Episode I & II DVD's...

    but then, you can't satisfy everyone, can you? The movies themselves look and sound incredible... and we FINALLY have them on DVD.
