Well, the original Star Wars Trilogy, the most highly anticipated DVDs ever, have finally arrived on my desk today from Amazon. The package was just shrinkwrapped with a promo card around the silver slipcase holding the four DVDs. I just had to pick off the loogie of glue under the card and was pleasantly surprised that I didn't have to unwrap each of the cases and peel off security tape. At first glance, A New Hope looks and sounds outstanding. Watching these movies again will bring back good memories of lining up back in 1977 to see the movie umpteen times, and of the years after that I worked as a projectionist and theater manager.

And to contrast the boxed set, I also have The Best of Triumph the Insult Comic Dog, which has the classic gut-bustingly funny Attack of the Nerds.
