I also went back to page 2 of this thread and looked at the lightsaber flash comparisons and you can tell that (other than color) the flashes are identical to the blu ray and not the GOUT. The only possibility is that they color corrected the blu ray and edited out SE changes and re-added the real scenes, which honestly, I could live with, if they do it right

I am sure that this is a different scan than the Blu-ray, because if you look at my comparisons the new version has a different warping pattern than the Blu-ray:

My conclusions:

This is a new 4K scan of the original negatives and elements, with an improved dirt and scratches detection and elimination algorithm (they boast on their website that manual cleanup is not done on the films they process). It has new colortiming, similar but not always identical to the '97 version of the film (see the running stormtroopers and the green C-3PO). There is no evidence for or against '97 SE changes, but as this is not a simple scan of the '97 interpositive, such changes seem unlikely to be included. The evidence leans in favor of an OUT release which has yet to be announced by Disney.
