Few science fiction films have achieved the success and renown of the original Star Wars. Episode I: The Phantome Menace. Currently, George Lucas has no plans to release the original theatrical cut of Episodes I on DVD. Having been replaced by a completed version, this classic piece of science fiction and film history will be allowed to fade away into obscurity.

There were 3 altered scenes in this new cut: an extended pods warming-up, an aerial taxi sequence, and above all, Anakin looking back when Qui-Gon says he wants him to meet the Council.

Our goal is to persuade Mr. Lucas to reconsider his decision. If you want the original theatrical cut of the The Phantom Menace on DVD, read and sign the petition now.

Talk with other Star Wars fans about the movie, the petition, what you'd like to see on the DVD--anything at all related to the Star Wars universe. Share your ideas and tell everyone what you're doing to help support the OTPM on DVD campaign.
