Better Grumpy than DopeyHowever, there is also a much rarer bootleg, which not many people seem to know about. I don't think I've ever seen it mentioned on here. Unlike the other one, which is pan and scan (except it's not actually "panned"), this one is in letterboxed widescreen. The audio is mono, but appears to be a fold-down of the '77 Dolby Stereo mix rather than the actual mono mix.
I've recently got hold of a copy of this (thanks very much to the person who sent it me). My source was a DVD-recorder transfer from VHS - so pretty low quality. I've IVTCed it and carried out a bit of cleanup, the final encode was a 2-CD XviD AVI file for convenience. I will be posting this on the newsgroup within the next few days. More of a curiosity for reference than a serious release, this is only for you if you thought the quality of the GOUT DVD wasn't bad enough, or if you enjoy comparing frame counts.

Just when you think you're out, they pull you back in...Does this version have the shot with Luke throwing the grappling hook and missing?
I've got it - it also has the Biggs and Luke on Tatooine scenes.

I am ready for the OOT!I hope that was a bad joke.
Cause otherwise you're about to get flooded with PMs.
EDIT: "flooded with PMs" pun was unintentional, but left in on the off-chance that someone might spit a drink out of their nose.
You know of the rebellion against the Empire?
