not to be rude but don’t you think you should preserve the 35+ year old films that are degrading vs the 21 year old SE ? and will they all be in 4k ?
like i said not trying to be rude thanks for doing this cant wait for ESB and ROTJ in 4k to go with 4k77
Like poita said, this was a limited opportunity, and to be honest you have to take opportunities when they come up. Look at the prices normally charged by labs in LA or NY that provide triple flash scanning, the costs are in the order of $20,000-30,000 per 2hr film.
Also, 4k77 is a different project to poita’s, it’s Team Negative 1’s project. I understand for you that Empire and Jedi may be priorities because there are other restorations already of the first film, but poita may wish to get the first film done first for his restorations.
