You are correct.
I had the impression RapKnight was referring to Amidala, Senator for Alderran. Who was Princess Leia Senator for?

Amidala was Senator for Naboo, Leia was for Alderran.

I've only seen Rogue One a few times. Now I finally bought it.

FYI I also noticed the original trilogy on Sale for $15 on Blu-ray, at Target.

Wow... It's amazing how cheap the internet has made movies. I remember buying the original trilogy on VHS in the late 90's for 30 bucks, back when gas was around 90 cents a gallon.

Is it the actual original trilogy, or the "Special Edition"?

BTW... I haven't downloaded and watched it yet, but there is a fan project online that has re-created the original trilogy as it was released in the theaters. This version was never seen again after the original theatrical runs, as it was edited for every home release and later theatrical showings. I watched a video on youtube about the history of this project and the many tricks they've used to pull this off.

I'm looking forward to eventually seeing this because I wasn't even born when the first movie came out so I've never seen this version before.

Do Right, Be Right. :)

I remember the 1977 Star Wars VHS going for near $100 in the early '80s, when the home video market was just starting up.

Really?
I thought copies of the first 3 were kept unavailable until the 90s, just before the 20th Anniversary.

I do recall that most every home viewing tape cost about $80, I think the same for VHS and BetaMax, but don't recall any Star Wars ever among them. Individual ownership was embargoed for a long time on SW.

Right. The "Original Trilogy". We're talking about the same ones.

I was wondering if this release was the late 90's release without the "Special Edition" effects and extra scenes added.

Would have been before my time, for sure. I don't believe I ever saw the Star Wars movies until they were on cable TV when I was around 6 or 7 years old.

I do remember seeing a commercial for Willow being released on VHS for over $100 back in the 80's!

I think that maybe Lucasfilm was charging the public the same licensing fees that they were charging video stores like Blockbuster.
