Star Wars is finally going to be released on Blu-Ray on September 16th.  We’ve already revealed two of the horrible changes to the original trilogy that Lucas has in store for us, but there is something that has been promised, a GOOD thing, that we just got further details on: Deleted Scenes.  Rumors of extensive deleted scenes from the Star Wars movies have floated around for a long, long time, but Lucas has refused to let anyone see them.  Everything from Luke building his light saber to a horde of Wompas attacking the Hoth base, these scenes have been hidden away in Lucas’ vault for decades… until now.

All we’ve been given is a list of the deleted scenes, along with their length, but I’ve also been able to dig up some clips that I’ll post first.  To get more details, scroll down to get the list of all the scenes (including the ones I couldn’t care less about from the prequels!)

Okay, so that last one isn’t exactly a deleted scene, but I still enjoy seeing Leia in the Slave Girl outfit!
