As the world prepares to completely lose its mind with the release of the new Star Wars film, it is obviously time to try to stir the pot as much as possible. That in mind, the previous films from the franchise are going to be released on April 10th in digital edition, and with some new bonuses to help sucker you in to the purchase.

They also come with the legacy bonus content, and put together, these are impressive releases. I don’t want to overly comment on how many sales the first three episodes are going to get, but if you need to catch up on the universe in general, this is your chance. And, since we’re looking at a new generation who need to get on board for the new film, this is the way to go.

Take a look at all the bonus potential below, and...

Since its 1977 debut, Star Wars has become perhaps the only franchise to reach every generation in some form or another. The six released movies so far offer everything to pop culture including art, books, conventions and collectables. People always seem to want more out of the movies be it extras or untold behind-the-scenes anecdotes, anything!

Starting on Friday, Star Wars will transcend audiences all over the world once again when Disney, Lucasfilm, and 20th Century Fox release all six Star Wars films on Digital HD for the first time ever. On April 10th you can have the entire saga in digital format. It will be available to buy as a collection or individually at all leading digital retailers: iTunes, Google Play, Vudu, Amazon, Xbox Video, PlayStation Store, and Verizon Fios.

Each digital release will come complete with two new, never-before-seen bonus features: “Star Wars: Discoveries from Inside” and “Conversations...

As anticipation builds for the December release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the first new film in the Star Wars Saga in a decade, The Walt Disney Studios, Lucasfilm Ltd., and 20th Century Fox today announced the upcoming release of The Star Wars Digital Movie Collection. For the first time ever, all six epic films in the Saga, from Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace to Star Wars: Episode VI - Return of the Jedi, will be available on Digital HD throughout the galaxy - or at least here on Earth - globally beginning Friday, April 10. Here's what Alan Bergman, President, The Walt Disney Studios, had to say in a statement.

Update: all six Star Wars films are out as HD downloads on the 10th April. Prices and trailers have been revealed...

Update: Yesterday, it was revealed that the first six episodes in the Star Wars saga are to be made available to buy digitally for the first time.

The movies will be made available worldwide on the same day - that's the 10th April - along with a clutch of new and old features to accompany each film.

Disappointingly, we'll be getting the later, digitally-modified Star Wars films rather than the original theatrical release.

It's also fair to say that the prices won't please everyone, either; a quick look on Xbox Video reveals that the full set's going for £69.99, while the individual films will set you back £13.99.

In the Us, the prices are $89.99 for the set and $19.99 per episode; if Google's calculator's correct, that makes the American set cheaper than...

[1] George Lucas' changes [2] to the Star Wars Blu-ray set have drawn some ire as of late, but let's be real -- these things are still gonna sell like hotcakes. While Lucas' alterations really will turn off some of his fans, it's probably a safe bet that many more will shell out for them anyway, even if they're grumbling as they do so. With that in mind, here are six ads for the Blu-ray that try to put you in a more positive state of mind about the updated releases. [via Geek Tyrant [3]] I actually quite like the first video, which is simple but effective -- just brief clips of some of the most thrilling moments from the saga, cut together in a very dynamic way. It's not enough to make me stop hating that Vader "Nooooo!" but it's nice to be reminded of why we love this series so much when...

Glen gets to grips with the release of Star Wars: The Complete Saga on Blu-ray. Is it worth your time and money? Here's his review...

Being asked if you want to review Star Wars: The Complete Saga on Blu-ray isn’t a difficult question to answer. The catch being that it involved an incredibly tight deadline, and not much sleep for a few days.

Sure, the films have been tweaked some more by George Lucas, moving them yet further away from the versions that everyone grew up with. And, of course, the original theatrical versions aren’t included. But, countering that, how could you not want to see Star Wars on Blu-ray?

The controversies surrounding the new changes have been covered extensively here and on other sites over the past few weeks, so I’m going to avoid going into that in any great detail, and instead focus...

The Star Wars Saga makes its collective HD debut this September, in a nine-disc collection that would make a Sith Lord blush...

The fourth of May be with you! Or something. For those of us already bored with our Star Wars VHS and DVD boxed sets now gathering dust on a shelf somewhere, today saw Lucasfilm make a rather special announcement - Star Wars: The Complete Saga on Blu-ray.

That this sextet of sci-fi is coming out in high-definition isn’t a particularly well-kept secret, but the host of extras present on the nine disc set perhaps is. Each feature will come on its own separate disc with twin audio commentaries, while a further three discs will come with a profusion of deleted and extended scenes, matte paintings and concept art, plus cast and crew interviews.

The ninth disc, meanwhile, will contain no fewer than eight Star Wars-flavoured documentaries.

LucasFilm has announced that Star Wars: The Complete Saga Blu-ray will be released on a nine-disc Blu-ray set on September 12 in international markets and September 16 in North America. We have one of the artwork photos below, but LucasFilm will reveal more artwork photos after more fans share the site MayThe4th.StarWars.com on their social networking pages. In the meantime, you can take a look at the Blu-ray trailer and the full press release with special features details below. This set will also be split up into the Star Wars: The Prequel Trilogy and Star Wars: The Original Trilogy Blu-ray sets, although we don't have pricing details at this time. We'll be sure to update this story as soon as more artwork photos are revealed throughout the day.
