    Return Of The Jedi includes audio commentary by executive producer George Lucas, sound designer Ben Burtt, visual effects supervisor Dennis Muren, and actress Carrie Fisher. From the instant you get past the legal warning, the DVDs come alive in all of their Star Wars glory. It seems that Lucasfilm Ltd. and 20th Century Fox have the full grasp of what a DVD menu can be

    Story Synopsis:
    In Star Wars: Episode VI

    DVD Picture:
    With A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back setting the bar for picture quality in this set, Return Of The Jedi also looks great.

    Reason #10 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I have read and researched many so called hi-fi mags to find intelligent and well-balanced professional reviews on new home theatre equipment for my new house. Widescreen Review has, in my opinion, provided me with a no-bias approach to help me in building my new dream system. Widescreen Review is my primary resource for the latest news in DVD home theatre gear. And your Web Site is an excellent place, too.
