I don't know if they color corrected that, I suppose not, but the prints were already 10 years old by then. I expect it to be like this: the earlier the release the closer to the original. My first issue PAL LD's look so damn clear and authentic, it really stunned me though I had already seen nearly all other SW LD's. The crawl and opening shot are even anamorphic widescreen, all the stars are there, I can tell you that. I'm sure that's the best LD representation of the crawl. To the X0 guys: I have three copies of the ANH LD, and a 2950 or 909 to cap it with. I'm planning to capture the whole trilogy and release it next week. I'm telling you guys, this is really something to look forward to! But the point is, I expect that one to be very close to the original: ANH was released in '82 (one of the three copies I have was still in 24 years old shrinkwrap when I got it).
To vbangle, I've discussed on-topic - I've explained why mastering from film is unrealistic (some other members here have explained this far better then I ever could too). There's only so much that can be said about this. If zombie84 wants to go and borrow a telecine, burn lots of dollars and spend years transferring something that will never look as good as the upcoming sep dvd's - then let him try. The 1993 transfer was done by professionals to the best of their abilities at the time. I thought we already got past acknowledging this would be futile?

None of us here like Lucas or Lucasfilm.
I have death wishes on Lucas and Macullum.
we could all probably get 10s of thousands of dollars!
