Want to know some of the details of restoring the Saga for the upcoming Star Wars on Blu-ray releases? StarWars.com has posted an interesting article that talks about some of the changes made.

Though the Star Wars movies were created for the big screen, George Lucas and his production team have made efforts to ensure they look and sound as good as possible for their home video releases. With the Saga’s long-awaited release on high-definition Blu-ray disc this September, it will be arriving in the best looking and best sounding home video format ever, a release that required meticulous optimization of picture and sound.

UPDATE: (2.8.11)

We’ve been doing some investigating this evening, with the help of our friends over at LightSaber Rattling (via @terrysstarwars), regarding an interview that appeared on our radar. During a recent interview with Release a Norwegian home cinema publication, Vincent Marcais, Senior Vice President Marketing at Twentieth Century Fox International in Europe answered questions about the upcoming Star Wars Blu-Ray releases, in addition to other titles.

Star Wars: Original Trilogy and Star Wars: Prequel Trilogy will consist of four discs each – one for each movie and one bonus disc. Star Wars: The Complete Saga will have an additional special features disc, for a total of nine.

The remastering of the movies has been performed by Lucasfilm and will offer “the most recently updated versions of the movies,” with “even more enhancements to the picture quality.” When asked about Fox’s answer to the fans that want to see the three original versions released, Marcais replied: “The versions that are being released are closest to George Lucas’ vision. Other than that, no comment.”

There is currently no date for a Blu-ray release of the six Star Wars movies separately.

Sales expectations are very high. For reference, the Avatar Blu-ray sold 5 million copies in the US and 4 million in the rest of the world. That’s the “ceiling” on what sales to expect from a major Blu-ray release, and Star Wars is expected to raise that ceiling.
