the man gets depressed as soon as he hits Episode VIII, it's kinda funny
The constant hate on the sequels is ridiculous. Most people wanna say they hate em cause it’s the popular things to do, knowing they bought em and watch me at home. Hypocrites....
That photo of the complete saga photo at the end with all the main characters, I’ve got a poster with that art which has a lot more characters.
I'm looking for that poster. If you know where I can find it please let me know
“It’s hard to pull out”
Giggity...
Lol that's what she said
The Complete Saga with the first 6 was released in 2011.
Thanks man!
Yep
The Skywalker saga is SIX movies.
The last THREE are just big budget fan fiction on a screen
thinkin’ about buying this for my dad for his birthday.
This is a great gift!! Definitely pick it up!
I have all 9 films in 4K individually, but it’s also tempting to get this as well because this would be a good collectors item. And I get BB gift cards from work, so money wouldn’t really be an issue.
cool bud
The complete saga box set that you have came out in 2011 and then was re-released as a package variant in 2015, in the US you had an extra variant which had a Darth Vader limited-edition slip cover over the top.
From memory I think it was either a Walmart or target exclusive for over the holidays.
Cool!! Thanks eva for the info! Forgot they re released it again with vader as the cover. Thanks again!
The Paradox Nerd no worries I’m a Star Wars home video collector
I enjoy all 9 movies. That being said, episodes 4 and 5 are the only ones that can be considered high art.
I couldn't agree with you more. Love the OT
I love all 9 movies too
Agree. Well i really don't like the first 2 precuels and episode 9. But still enjoyble films. And also i think only episode 4 and 5 are art, and the clone wars but thats a tv show so Is different
True
Count dooku is the best lol
Looks nice! Smart and classy move to use the McQuarrie art in the set. Can’t stand the photoshop poster art. Also, 4K is vastly superior to blu ray. The upgrade is incredible in sound too.
colours too, these have HDR.
If they wanted to keep the Skywalker saga branding solo and rogue one could be a bonus disc
There is a big difference in colourcorrection!! and quality between the older and new films. The new ones have much more natural colours like the original release and there is a cleaner and sharper image
Wow! Didn't know that Roger. Thanks for pointing it out. Going to rewatch and look for the difference. Thanks for watching!
I have mixed feelings about 7 to 9. On the one hand it was great seeing Mark, Carrie, Harrison, and Billy Dee back in the movies again, but I hated the plots they used. We learn Luke's Jedi Academy failed, Han is killed by his son, Leia & Luke die, and worst of all in we learn Palpatine was live. It made me feel that all the things Luke went through in the original trilogy were for nothing. LOL
Late reply but yeah I agree. It ruins the prequels too because Vaders sacrifice was meant to fulfill the prophecy that Anakin was the chosen one. Having Sidious alive hurt a lot.
The worst offense is Episode 9. It is just bad writing.
I prefer the last one you showed. The first has the force awakens and blah blah, for me star wars ended at return of the jedi.
I agree. Star Wars ended with Return Of The Jedi
@@paradoxnerd I bought the compete saga yesterday. Its all sealed up so I'm happy. :)
I respect your opinion
Is the mark hamill autograph printed or really signed?
Fingerprints yes, but I wouldn't worry about scratching them. Blu-Rays are really hard to scratch compared to DVDs.
Didn't know the blu rays were hard to scratch but still cringe everytime I take one of the discs out just because the slots for them are really really tight.
@@paradoxnerd take them fully out and put them back in once and then they're looser, they pack them in really tight the first time (presumably so they don't fall out whilst being shipped)
They should replace episode 7,8,9 with rogue one. Only decent disney star wars besides the mandalorian
It's worth it. You get the six movies of the Star Wars Skywalker saga plus some free drinks coasters.
Your depressed last jedi voice is the same as my rise of skywalker voice
The packaging looks cool but would give me anxiety removing the discs incase they scratch 😅 think I’ll just go for the regular Skywalker Saga Blu-Ray Boxset instead for the movies and extras discs. Eventually when I get a 4K tv I can always buy the 4K versions individually if I decide to upgrade.
I say wait. From what I heard from the grapevines... they are releasing a complete star wars box sets with all the movies including rogue one and solo. So hold out for that. That might be a better choice
The Paradox Nerd Awesome! Thanks for that, I’ll keep a look out for that one 👍
Plus what’s the green saber for the battle on Mustafar?
Finally we get a proper high pitch " ITS yo boy" !!!
EEeEeEeEeeeTz ya boyy!
I don’t like the sequels either. But many didn’t like the phantom menace either. You just have to learn to accept the films for what they are, but you have to look at the positives.
For example, the phantom menace may have not been great but it gave us Darth Maul. Naboo was a beautiful planet introduced to the franchise too. It’s one of my favorite planets in Star Wars.
The sequels had lots of cool ideas too like Snoke’s Praetorian Guards (and despite how you might feel about Snoke’s untimely death, you have to admit the fight was at least cool).
Sith troopers are cool. The battle on Crait was kinda cool.
Just gotta live with it. I disliked what Ryan Johnson did but just be glad the saga is over and can’t be tarnished any further lol
Yah I'm with you Andrew Maddox. I try to look for the good in all Star Wars films but unfortunately, I can't find them in the sequels especially The Last Jedi and Rise Of Skywalker. Prequels had a lot of cringy moments but the one positive thing that they had was consistency which the sequels didn't have. I guess I'll live with them but it's really hard to.
The Paradox Nerd the movies can’t be undone so we might as well. The overall story of the sequels was poor, but I can at least say there were scenes I enjoyed.
Snoke fight was so full of mistakes that it made the somewhat cool fight poorly made...
The Phantom Menace will always have a special place in my heart. It was the first Star Wars movie I saw in theaters (I wasn’t born when the others came out) and I was obsessed with Queen Amidala/Padme. I love Darth Maul and Naboo as well.
I come from a Star Wars loving family so of course the Original Trilogy trumps all but I can find something to enjoy in all episodes.
sequels have no redeeming qualities unless your brain shuts off in favor of fan girling... they literally told us to forget the past and kill it if we had to lol they literally toss the lightsaber off a cliff ffs. Merchandise painted red is cool? The battle of salt hoth is kinda cool? come on man
Getting mine tomorrow (UK release is 20th April) & this is an Amazon exclusive in the UK.
Ah nice! Congrats and let me know what you think of the blu ray collection
The Paradox Nerd Arrived & I love it!
@@giles852002 I ordered it today but could you check if it has English subs. I'm from Belgium
I also wish they included “Empire of Dreams” documentary.
Yah that would have been a nice added feature.
It's available on Disney+ and in HD quality too.
Nice profile picture
LOOKS GREAT, CONGRATS. YOU SHOULD PUT IT IN A GIVEWAY.👊🏽
Thanks man! Hmm. I might do it if I hit a certain amount of subs
I need to know if Anyone who owns this set knows...does this A New Hope version include Greedo saying "Mahclunky"?
Yes. This new hope version has the Macklunky line
@@paradoxnerd Is that specifically from the 4K disc or is it included in the Blu-ray as well?
@@FATE522 I haven't checked the blu Ray but the 4k has it. I'm pretty sure the blu Ray has it too
@@paradoxnerd thank you so much for answering my questions :)
Joe Balaich yes sorry but yes the Blu ray have That line to);
did you find picture here better than the old bds?
I love the old BDs better than this one. Not to count this one out. This has some magnificent artwork
One thing I hate is how the discs are placed in the booklet! Taking them in and out like that will cause the discs to scratch...
Yah, horrible design. So scary to take them out
Agreed, always a horrible way to store the discs. Is there a non limited edition, with proper disc storage, that contains the entire set?
Mark Middleton Unfortunately, aside from getting the singles/The Complete Saga then buckling for the Sequel Singles, no.
Just be careful
I picked this up. Was really considering not doing so but I was still rocking the 2005 special editions on DVD and hadn’t yet picked up The Rise of Skywalker (not that I really wanted to 😂). So basically, I was due for an upgrade either way. I’m more than happy to buy Solo and Rogue One separately. Also really hoping for a box set re-release of the Clone Wars here in Australia.
My “Complete Saga” boxset from 2011 does not look the same as this one inside box.
This is a serous nit pick, but I grew up with prequel era. And watched the originals in special editions from the silver box set from 2004. So in my DVD cabinet, the prequels on the spine are shiny bronze and the OG are silver. There was something pleasing to see a color code difference of the two eras. I am bummed that not only have the new Disney era left behind that esthetic, but also the lack of the “episode” and Roman numerals in the titles and promotional material. As a side project I’ve been designing an imaginary box set release just to sate my appetite for this lose lol
why do they put the disc in slip cases like that. I always have to get better cases , sliding the disc like that will scratch them.
Really wish somebody would talk about the Atmos soundtrack. Is it confirmed that all of the UHD disks have Atmos for audio?
So the Blu-ray discs that come with the 4K discs, are they also the newer Special Editions of IV-VI with the latest tweaks (as seen on Disney+ with Greedo's new "Maclunkey" line) or are they just reissues of the 2011 versions? If they are the new versions too, are they also presented with the new improved colour palette, but obviously 1080p Blu-ray quality instead of 2160p 4K quality? I mainly ask cuz I don't have 4K UHD at all, just a normal Blu-ray player as I can't afford to get a 4K UHD player. Plus I can't get one right now anyway with the corona pandemic going on and our non-essentials stores closed. So I'm therefore wondering if it's worth me ordering just the Blu-ray version of the new Skywalker Saga set or just stick with the 2011 Blu-ray set. Also, does the new release contain new features on the bonus discs or are they the same features as on previous releases? Sorry to ask so many questions.
So this has the Maclunkey versions and not the reissues of the 2011 versions. I say if you have the old blu ray set, stick to them. Once you get a 4k blu ray player then I would say it might be worth it to upgrade if not then stick to Disney plus because they are streaming them in 4k anyways. Hope that helps
The Paradox Nerd it comes with all the extras of the 2011 set witch the documentaries?
@@paradoxnerd Okay thanks. I'll probably just stick with the old Blu-ray set then and watch the new versions on Disney+. I'll still get Rise of Skywalker on Blu-ray though as it hasn't been released on Disney+ yet.
Andrew Chapman if you play games just get an x box x or series x or ps5
I bought 6 Star Wars films & Rogue One, Solo (2 Star Wars story films)
1st I Bought Both of the " A Star Wars Story" Films (2016-18)
2nd I Bought Star Wars Sequel Trilogy (2015-19)
3rd I Bought Star Wars Original Trilogy (1977-83)
Now all I Need to Buy is Star Wars Prequel Trilogy (1999-05)
Lol I Went Backwards from 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1,
Still I prefer the older bluray set , to me the packaging and the case were of better quality. Might buy the new ones if the price gets lower and I upgrade to 4K.
Thank you, i was waiting for a review of this
You are very welcome! Thank you for watching!
Do you know when star wars in 4K releases in UK
The behind the scenes make it so much better. The possibility of scratching the discs is poor engineering.
Yah can't wait to watch the behind the scenes. Agree with you bout the poor design of the disc slots
The Paradox Nerd son and I were watching the behind the scenes about New Hope. It’s crazy to think they wanted to pull the plug and how many issues they had.
They engineer it like that so when you scratch it you have to buy another one. Smart but so annoying
Is it true not one of these movies has Dolby Vision? Why would you bother?!!! They are upscale 2k and not native 4k right? No better than the bluray right?!!!
How many copies did you get for your digital codes? When I opened mine I had 3 different sets for all 9 movies and I’m trying to find out that’s common or if I was just super lucky
As much as I love Star Wars, this box set, I’m gonna do my own.
But I’m still gonna get this one to support the official release!
Can't find any info anywhere on the edition size.
Hey peejay what’s holding up your phone/camera while you hold and review these?
hey soso, just using a tripod I bought from amazon.
Packaging is cool, not a fan of how the discs are stored, complete saga in the UK and the bluray of skywalker saga are much better, the cases are plastic and can store discs more securely. That said its the only option to have all the films on 4k disc (disc>streaming) at a semi-reasonable price.
Great review and unboxing. Shame they didn’t include solo and rogue one
Thanks! I agree. Shame they didnt include solo and rogue one. Would have definitely made it worth it
The Paradox Nerd my partner is getting me this for Father’s Day
Thanks for sharing this. Like always packaging looks great. I vicariously felt your pain when sliding those discs out. After getting the original OTS set of laserdiscs, special edition VHS set, special edition DVD set, special edition Blu-ray set, Complete saga set, and not being impressed overall with the sequel series I'm going to have to pass on this one.. or do I?
Thanks for watching Kunjiklub! Yah those discs were a pain in the butt to remove. Wish there was a better way. Tbh if you have disney plus and you have the previous complete saga blu ray already, you can pass on this set. 4k is nice but you have disney plus for it. Hope the review helped your decision
Just for reference, if you bought all movies on Blu-ray individually, they’d all be $30 each, totaling at $270. This of course is $250.
I myself currently have the “complete saga” Blu-ray collection before Disney began the sequels, but as a huge Star Wars fan I feel obligated to get this (despite the fact I wasn’t impressed by the sequels).
Thanks for the info. Guess I save 20 bucks lol. I'm with you about being obligated to buy this set because I am a Star Wars fan (even though I wasn't impressed by the sequels myself) Just wish that it wasn't the case
Of course the put them selves in the box set lolololol
im not to crazy on this box set. isn't there a boxset with just the movies in them and not this big gallery in it?
Is it worth buying even you already have them but not like this cool box set
I bet it's worth now at $112.99 at Best Buy now.
preordered ! thanks for unboxing nice review 🤓👍🏻 May the force be with you
Thanks for watching!! May the force be with you always!
I know this is The Skywalker Saga but they should have included Solo and Rogue One, the latter being the best Star Wars film of the decade.
I don't get the fingerprint thing, these aren't DVD's, unless you are using them daily, you'll never touch them enough to damage the discs
I wish this had Rogue One and Han Solo. What do you think, should I get this skywalker saga box set or should I get all 11 individual 4k Star Wars movies box sets?
Rumor has it is that they are releasing a big huge box set which includes Solo and Rogue one. I would wait for that one. We still have disney plus if you need to watch them in 4k. Thanks for watching!
The Paradox Nerd thanks for the advice! I think I’ll wait for that box set before buying them! But yeah I would go for the individual ones since the box set doesn’t have rogue one and han solo
The Paradox Nerd do you have a video/site saying that they are releasing a box set with rogue one and solo?
I love it but I hate that marks letter is just left loose inside the box... easily dented creased etc. the Blu ray box set actually has it secure by on car-bored attacked to the box set.
A $250.00 price point is a REACH
from Disney Inc. Their choice. Not a wise one.
Knock it down a least $100.00,
Since i have yet to purchase a Star Wars
Blu-ray box set, a lower price would
compel me to purchase it.
Your reaction when you got to
The Last Jedi's chapter, seeing
Rian's photo, i can so relate.
I re-watched E8 a while back.
I found that skipping through the
Rey and Luke scenes, made me
enjoy the film just a bit more than
i did when i initially saw it.
Overall, i wasn't really feeling the
sequel trilogy. I feel there are some
FANTASTIC concepts/visuals presented,
for myself, they were all lost by generic
direction and execution.
All subjective i suppose.
I agree with everything you said. I can't watch episode 8 and episode 9. I really tried to but found myself skipping pretty much 90 percent of the movie. Disney really missed the mark with the sequels and I'm just glad that it's over before they tarnish the skywalker name even more.
@@paradoxnerd
For myself, i hope,
they will examine the success
of the Mandalorian and continue
on that sort of tone and cinematic
vibe.
I am hoping against all hope,
that the powers that be at Disney
hire Gareth Edwards and his team
to conceive and execute some new
SW content for Disney+.
For years now,
I have been wanting/wishing
for a SW story to tell things
exclusively from the Imperial's
perspective.
In addition, i wish D+ would release Edward's Director's edit of Rogue One.
Imagine...
I was thinking about picking this up and was wondering if the disc got scratched and are they safe in this packaging
It's impossible to get the discs out without having fingerprints and scraping through the paper on the back. They're held in place with magnets I think and require a lot of "force" to pull out. I came here to see if I'm missing a trick but seems like there's no way to safely get them out. I don't think they'll scratch easily but if you watch these often, all that scratching will add up.
This is just a repacking of the 2011 blu Ray's and the prequel and sequel blu Ray's. If this set had the video of episodes 4 to 6 that was in the 1993 definative collection laser discs set in 4K then I would've bought it. The Laserdiscs and Harmys despecialized blow Lucas's special editions right outta this Galaxy! May the Dark side be with you always!
i use the complete saga slip box to contain all the 4k disc from the skywalker saga... coz the slip for the skywalker saga is really hard to remove the disc out 😅
$250 plus extra $60 for "Rouge One" & "Solo"!
I know. Wish they included both movies for the $250 price tag
Ok and?
It’s still cheaper wtf
Nobody needs Solo
Dude, I’ve always been an early adopter of any new Star Wars home video release in any format, but I gotta say... don’t care about the Disney ones, and I spent last year indulging myself in originaltrilogy.com, crafting my own box for my Despecialized Editions... and until Disney releases original theatrical cuts in 4k... I guess I’m good.
Wish it had solo and rogue one in the whole star wars saga
Totally agree. Those were the only 2 missing to make this the ideal set to get
Wow starwars 4k collection include korean subtitle??
I have episodes 4 to 6 on DVD, as they come with the second disk with the OT unaltered.
Boy, you're too lucky
Lol. I'm lucky to have you watch my videos. Really appreciate it
@@paradoxnerd thank you, if you want to check out my star wars fan film, just click my channel
When you said hard to pull discs out it made me think of the stupid 2011 blu ray release of 1-6 I have where it’s the same problem
The first six Star Wars movies are the greatest ones. The Sequel trilogy are just nostalgic cash-in's.
amen .. amen
I have both the cases and box set version of the movies and love the artwork by the artists of the consept art and by Ralph Macquarie and Doug Chiang
The last one came out in 2011 and for us in the UK we got a different style casing. We got a booklet with the same images and a flip case design for the blu-ray discs. We did however, get a limited still from RotS included I somehow managed to get 2 of the same still in mine, even though a friend of mine got the same boxset and got one still
Were the digital codes for UHD or HDX copies?
I'm still fucking pissed about TLJ. Will probably never forgive the people involved.
Sigh me too... me too
No video I’ve seen of this unboxing ever addresses whether the Mark Hamill signature is a reprint or if he actually signed them individually do you have an answer? Btw great video
Thank you and unfortunately the signature is a reprint. Sorry if i forgot to mention it. Thanks for watching and may the force be with you!
The Paradox Nerd oh okay! Thanks for answering that was very helpful
I think the main cover, instead of the Death Star should have been a collage of all the characters. Also the individual concept art for each Episode I only really liked Ep2, Ep6, and Ep9. None of them really showed art of the main characters which I didn't like.
I loved all the Star Wars movies except the Last Jedi, Force Awakens.
Same. Except I love all the star wars movie except for last jedi and rise of Skywalker
The Paradox Nerd wasn’t a fan on AotC, TLJ, and RoS
Force awakens was basically plagiarism but I enjoyed it a lot, but that’s probably because a Star Wars movie hadn’t been in theaters since 2006
Is it one digital code for all of them, or 9 different codes? Anyone know?
When Disney makes Marvel movies, They always make a good job.
When Disney Makes Star Wars, i think they say: uh, put action scenes only action, no story."
They're IS STORY!!
@@benmalsky9834 yeahh
@@TruibderianChannel If you don't like it, that's fine, but I do and that's not bad. We're all entitled to our opinion, so that's all I have to say.
@@benmalsky9834 no but, my opinion, umm, i don't know, actually i can not feel like watching a star wars movie when I WATCH sequels
@@benmalsky9834 but I Respect all opinions
Did you leave it out in the rain or do you just have greasy ass fingers?
What’s the music?
Awesome Video!!!
does anyone knows if it includes english subtitles??? plz help me
I got episodes 3,4,5 & 6 in 4K individually. I already own episode 8 & 9 in 4K. To be honest I’m just a fan of of the original trilogy. But episodes 3 and 9 I find marginally entertaining but extremely flawed. Last Jedi was the worst experience I’ve ever had. Rogue One is boring but last 15 minutes aren’t bad. Didn’t even bother with Solo. Can’t believe anyone would actually pay $200+ dollars for so many bad movies. Episodes 1 and 2 are completely unwatchable to me.
I bought them because I'm a Star Wars fan. I enjoyed the first 6, maybe 7 and hated the last 2 movies. Regardless of how I felt with the last two, still love this box set and the aesthetics.
I like all of them
How much is this?
Hey M Livehd. This set is 250 usd from best buy. Thanks for watching!
The Paradox Nerd Thanks!
M Livehd too much
I watched this to see if the special features on the new set are different to the old set or not. That’s 17 minutes of my life I’ll never get back. My question wasn’t answered in the slightest.
I'm so sorry. I don't really watch the special features that much. I'll update you soon once I do
Does it have English subs? i'm from Belgium
Is it worth it?
Answer: yes!
i agree Darth!!
TLJ rules
Me: These are already sold out in the capital of Canada where I live. Great job Disney
Yoda: you are reckless
Disney: for what?!
Yoda: selling not enough copies you have
Disney: and what are you supposed to do about it?
Mace Windu: the senate will decide your fate
haha. i hear you. not sure why disney not send enough to Canada because they are still in stock in U.S. Great job Disney... you really know your market smh
Wow How much??
It was 250usd here. Got it from Best Buy
I want this one so bad
Love this I have it
Last jedi isn't bad at least they had my favorite character yoda in it a good war story base besides lightsaber action I do like ships in battle
It looks dusty on the box
4-6 the original cut or Lucas’ bs cut??
latter with a few further changes
They can’t release the original cuts
Why would it be the old versions
Lmao. It’s always hard to pull out bro
Those oily finger smudge euuuww....
