dvd release regarding this section of the article this release is notable because due to marketing issues it was the first star wars film never to be released on vhs in the united states i think that this can be eliminated first of all this doesn't really make the release notable most films released at the same time were not released on vhs also the fact that it was released on vhs in other countries makes it even less notable it also does not have anything to do with the dvd release but rather the home video release
