Padawan LearnerI'm just watching it for the first time. It doesn't looks THAT good on a HD TV but still looks better than the official thing to me :-)

That is exactly what I said, it looks way over filtered to me, like the old Citizen versions, but I highly disagree with you that this looks better than anything official, the 06 limited edition bonus disc processed, looks loads better in my opinion, I can handle its flaws better than the JSC flaws.
27" picture tube old ass TV, V8 looks great.
65" Mits HDTV, looks very bad.
I really think most people that are saying that the JSC set LD captures look great are not viewing them on a large screen HDTV.
Some people!

Nah, I can't handle the GOUT at all. All the DVNR smearing just makes anything that moves (almost everything) look like a blurry mess. Though I was skimming through RotJ the other day (not sure I've ever even watched that one on GOUT before) and there doesn't seem to be any smearing?? At least not for the first hour or so, I didn't get all the way through yet.
If you want to see bad, try watching the VHS on a big screen :| That was...quite an interesting experience...

Slayer of DeaditesWatched the V8. It's nice seeing the unaltered ANH with no DVNR smearing. However, to be fair, you're met with a picture less clear and with less accurate colors than the GOUT. The V8 kinda makes me nostalgic. It reminds me of the amazement I felt when I found a 1985 VHS of the original Star Wars and watched it so much. I was just a kid back then and was surprised at it being different than the 1997 versions. The V8's color timing is the same... looks to be the same transfer. Thanks for uploading Asaki. I'll seed as long as I can.
Does anyone happen to have a Cinematik invite? If you do, PM me and we can work something out...

Now if it only had the 35mm mix it would be a perfect DVD, the 1985 is on so many preservation it is sad and it is crap as far as i'm concerned.
Really an experiment in early digital home audio mixes for films, if not for the added and missing content the 1993 mix would be definitive.
I have the laserdisc and i wish it had any of the 3 theatrical mixes. All it has is the 1985 as digital and analog.
