You're doing exactly what I did!! And that's why I like it. ;)
P.S. that ROTJ LD cover scan would be awesome... A high quality scan of that would solve all my ROTJ cover problems, LOL.
Msycamore didn't have any ROTJ posters as far as I know. I'm also looking for a good textless and uncropped ROTJ poster art since the art used in the US poster had been cropped from all sides.

OK got all my answers. FWIW all languages except French are okay to use leading ellipses as far as I can tell, so I'll follow that rule regardless of what the burned-in subs did in those languages. And all languages including French can italicize ship names.
Depends on what are "all languages".

Another question: on the spine after the big "THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK" text, is that another "®*"?
It is on my covers. But like I said, they weren't in English but the copyright stuff should be the same. I have ®* next to both TESB logos on the spine and on the front.

Can someone who owns the VHS releases tell me what the first few characters of the following text is from the lower back of the TESB box (I could only find low resolution scans for TESB and ROTJ)?
It looks like maybe:
®™ & ©
Is that correct?
Edit: I could use a readable scan of the bottom of the front of the TESB box too (the credits section). Does anyone have one?
It's ®*
I did exactly this to my covers (which are not in English) so I know where you're coming at. It's a pretty huge task to make them match exactly, good luck.
Looking good!

Indeed. Which really begs the question presented in the title: Whose arm is that in the final version?timdiggerm said:
Although the alternate cut of the original cantinia scene does clearly show a flipper laying on the ground.
I think they first wanted the flipper, then decided it looked too weird/impossible to hold a gun. Then they decided to change the hand but didn't notice that you could see the original flipper before the fight.
Sure, why not. And if anyone else has them in hires, please share. :)
Do you have those original lightsaber art in hires?
Sounds cool. More interesting event to me was that happening on Elstree studios, was it in May, where Kurtz will be also among other guests. Would be cool to be where they shot the movies.
You're right, he's wrong. :)
Those look the best to me, too. Nice job.

@Moth4: Um, which day is Boxing day again? ;-) We don't have any such thing. We also get our presents on xmas eve after dinner :-P
Boxing day should be the day after Christmas Eve if I remember my English lessons :-)
I thought Christmas comes after Christmas eve. :P
Crawl looks good, interest growing...
Those look really good to my eye, maybe a tad too greenish though. Again, some scenes are better than others but still, nice work.
How's the cartoon on BD? Is it cropped or anything? I know about the added edges but those could be cut off I guess. Just wondering if someone would want to make a hybrid of this hybrid and adding the cartoon from the BD to get best possible quality.
Everything beats Jedi Rocks. I also like the instrumental version of Lapti Nek a lot.

So, uh... myspleen?
LOL, seconded.
Does anyone know what Cushing thought about Star Wars? There isn't much mention of him at all in various making ofs etc. Was he like Guinness that pretty much just came to work and disliked the movie or how did he feel about it?

Wasn't he one of the Norwegian Army chaps?
In which case he might not have originally spoken the line in English.
Actually that's Bob Anderson's cameo.
In my 1995 PAL set, IIRC, SW has the new 3D animated Fox fanfare (which starts from the top of the logo and circles around) which fades out to LFL logo. TESB and ROTJ are original.

Yeah, that was my guess too. But the shots from the Falcon cockpit and the Vader with eyebrows seem to be legit, as does the sunset pic posted by You_Too (although the colours and gamma probably aren't quite accurate there).
They are also from the LFL library, they're from the SE versions which all(?) indicate some changes made to the film like recompositing. Only one that isn't from the library is the first one with Ben, I think.
Thumbs up, he deserved it.

The green tint in FoTR is nowhere near as noticeable as the comparison videos would have you believe.
To me it was. I was annoyed the whole 3+ hours when I watched the movie. It was almost painful to watch, hopefully they remove it if they release the movie on one disc some years later.
The images seem too dark, though.
