I am – Hercules!!

Which movies does Herc want to see most in HD?? The “Star Wars” movies. HD makes even the horrible Episode I tolerable.

They all come to HD for the first time ever at midnight and run 14 hours until 2 p.m. Saturday. Then they run all six again, from 2 p.m. Saturday till 3:30 a.m. Sunday.

But remember!! Do not watch them in the order Cinemax shows them. If you must watch all six, this is the correct sequence in which you are required to watch them:

Episode IV: A New Hope
Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back
Episode I: The Phantom Menace
Episode II: Attack of the Clones
Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
Episode VI: Return of the Jedi

The other ways are no good! You’ll have to use your DVR until LucasFilm issues them on HD-DVD or Blu-ray.

Look!! A month-old press release!!

EPIC ACTION AND ADVENTURE OF STAR WARS(r) SAGA

This November, CINEMAX(r) celebrates the STAR WARS saga and gives its fans reason to celebrate by airing all six films in George Lucas' epic adventure during a single weekend marathon.

Beginning at midnight on FRIDAY, NOV. 10 (ET/PT*), the "CINEMAX STAR WARS Weekend Marathon" kicks the month into hyperdrive, as all six films air in order in High Definition (where available), beginning with STAR WARS: EPISODE I THE PHANTOM MENACE(tm). This unprecedented STAR WARS marathon concludes Monday, Nov. 13, with STAR WARS: EPISODE VI RETURN OF THE JEDI.

Throughout the weekend, CINEMAX will devote its schedule to George Lucas' cinematic journey, so fans have multiple opportunities to experience the STAR WARS saga in order and in High Definition (where available) for the first time ever.

CINEMAX On Demand users will also receive exclusive access to the entire STAR WARS saga any time from Nov. 2 until Dec. 28, with more than a dozen special features and footage - from original concept art to the behind-the-scenes looks at the making of the saga's creatures, weaponry and more, all courtesy of Lucasfilm Ltd.

The visionary STAR WARS saga tells the story of the Skywalker family, set against an ongoing battle of good and evil, as Jedi Knights attempt to free the galaxy from the clutches of the dark forces of the Empire - ultimately led by Anakin Skywalker (Darth Vader) himself.

Both the original STAR WARS trilogy and the blockbuster prequels will air throughout November. After the "CINEMAX STAR WARS Weekend Marathon," fans can catch the two STAR WARS trilogies on separate nights: the prequel trilogy (Episodes I-III), on THURSDAY, NOV. 16, beginning at 5:15 p.m., and the original trilogy (Episodes IV-VI), on FRIDAY, NOV. 17, beginning at 5:45 p.m. Viewers can also see a different STAR WARS episode at noon (in release date order) beginning MONDAY, NOV. 20, or each night at 10:00 p.m. (in story order) beginning SUNDAY, NOV. 26.

For the ultimate STAR WARS fan experience, the presentation of all six films is supported by a national online interactive game and sweepstakes - the "CINEMAX Corellian Challenge" (Oct. 16-Dec. 31), a six-round game in which users travel through space to destroy enemy ships and attempt to restore freedom to the galaxy. A grand prize of $10,000 will be awarded in December, with secondary prizes given out weekly.

In addition, Cinemax.com will roll out trailers and behind-the-scenes clips throughout the broadcast of the films. For more game information and sweepstakes rules and regulations, go to Cinemax.com.
