I first saw that date on theonering.net. I couldnt believe it at first.Lucas usually takes a lot longer to release Star Wars movies and DVD's. I heard of an extended version that is also being released?

Probably a couple of reasons would be the Xmas market and also less time for pirate copies to make their way around the globe.

Yea..its cos all the documentarys are already made so he doesnt have to watch them and stuff like he has to with 4,5 and 6..

I cant wait for it though..... thats 2/6 Star Wars episodes on DVD by November

Amazingly fast. I was expecting a tie-in with Ep 3.

There are many possible reasons for this.
Due to its comparatively disapointing suceess at the U.S. box office EP2 would want to cash in on the christmas rush. it failed to live up to Ep1s 400 million gross and was left limping at the 300 million mark. Despite a 70million opening week Fox officials had admitted that they had expected more. This is a wise time for release considering that Pottermania will start to Kick in two weeks later followed by Two Towers.

I think ep2 didnt do aswell at the box office as ep1 as there wasent as much hype surrounding it. If you think back there was something Star Wars everywhere and countdown to episode1 clocks on every webpage and tv program :rolleyes: ..... then once everyone went to see it it was ****e.
