I cannot believe they changed the Greedo scene yet again. You’ve got to be kidding me. It’s a joke at this point.

On the positive side, the colors look a lot more natural and closer to the originals than the Blu-rays and the DVDs. Oh well…I’ll stick to 4k77 and Despecialized and stay away from this mess.

What about Adywan’s Revisited edits?

Oh yeah, those are great too. I actually really like those. But I prefer the true, original versions!

I came across a open matte version of the shorter International cut in 1080p that has come out as a web dl version. The cropping is close to the old 4X3 dvd print aspect ratio but has the same pink cars and tennis ball problem.

Where can I get a hold of that?

It’s on Blutopia, if you can bet in there…and possibly Usenet.

Han - Solo Movie ** Spoilers **
Time

Lots of great EU references, but no great film moments. The absolute worst Star Wars film since the animated Clone Wars. This one makes TPM and AOTC look like masterpieces. I was literally sick to my stomach at the end of the film, sitting in complete shock and silence at how offensively BAD This was. This movie spoon fed me information I already know and don’t care about. Like a Mike or Rich of Red Letter Media freakout the whole time: “THIS IS STARRRR WARRRS. WANNA SEE THE KESSEL RUN? THIS IS IT!!!” I rate it 3/10 only because Donald Glover was awesome as Lando. I hated everything else about this film.

The Last Jedi: Official Review and Opinions Thread ** SPOILERS **
Time

This film seems to be dividing everyone. I enjoyed it. The Finn/Rose subplot with the whole Master Codebreaker stuff bogged down the movie a little, but Luke? Yoda? AWESOME. Rey was great too, though I would have liked to see her struggle a bit more. Kylo was great, and who gives a damn about who Snoke is? His character served its purpose.

Star Wars Despecialized Editions - Custom Bluray Set (Released)
Time

So…someone was kind enough to get me the ISO files of the BD50 versions of the films. I burned them last night. On my old, tired Samsung blu-ray player, everything works fine. However, on my main unit, which is a much newer Samsung UHD 4K blu-ray player, the menu just keeps looping on all three discs every time I try to click “play film.” If I go through the chapters and try to select a scene in any of the three movies, it just sends me back to the main menu. I’ve updated the firmware on my player and everything. Anyone have this problem too? Any suggestions?

Here’s to hoping the documentary discs make their way back onto Mega some day. 😃

Dealing with People Selling Fan Projects

I am disappointed to find that despecialized sets are still being offered for sale on eBay. A quick search shows somebody in York (England) and what looks like our old friend in San Diego selling with impunity.

What’s equally tragic and hilarious is that the latter now claims to be donating a portion of all his profits to the ASPCA.]

It is even more sickening when the seller thanks Harmy and OT members for their tireless work in his/her description. It’s like slapping everyone directly in the face and making a profit off doing so.

ronwlim Ultimate Star Wars boxset, 2.0!

Looks great, Ron. I get what you mean about being obsessed over every little detail. I’m the same way with my passionate interests as well. (Mostly about music, I’m a professional musician!) I’m sorry so many darn pirates ruin good things for us real fans. This is truly incredible. Should Lucasfilm every actually decide to release something like this, they should call you up!

(Also this thread reminds me that I need to get me a printer 😛)
