now here's a guy who is taking star wars and using digital editing creating what he considers the "true" dvd of star wars.

for example, he noted in the lucasfilm dvd of star wars, the opening star field was different than what it was originally. so he digitally repainted the starfield exactly and matted it into the picture.

some of the comparison shots look very interesting.

Ha! I love the "Han shot first" shirt... that change pissed me off as did the new stupid hippie song at the end of Jedi... lame!

Too bad Lucas doesn't release both... even if he charged more for the originals it would be woth it to me

Some people have entirely too much time on their hands

That being said, I'd love a copy. Shame he's not giving any out.

Eh, Lucas has become a money grubbing media whore. "Ooh, let's add in more CG and make a re-re-release. Then we can charge them again when we make the Super Ultra Extra Definitive Director's Cut."

I wait for Episodes 7-9, to see what atrocities will be committed...

I got $5 that says this gets leaked to the net after completion...

Wow, I'm happy with a DVD copy transfered from my laserdisc edition.

If it is, I'll definitely be combing trackers and newsgroups. So I can report them to the authorities, of course. The bastards must pay for their heinous deeds.

For something like that there would be no need to look long. Within a day it would be pretty mainstream.

His editorial is really interesting. He compares EQ settings to video overlay settings. Interesting.
And I'm happy with the old blue box remastered VHS.

Well, his spirit is commendable, but this:

is taking it to the point of obsession.

Likewise. The quality, for me, is fine (and the lack of CG and terrible music makes it oh so much better) but, i must confess, i no longer own a vcr
