The better versions of the prequels…
Can you elaborate please? I’d like to know more as to why the 35MM versions are superior to the other releases.
It’s a matter of opinion, simply because they have grain and filmic contrast. I don’t believe that’s what it takes to make them look as if they were actually shot on film, however (emanswfan elaborated on this somewhere in his thread), and according to Roger Ebert there’s a noticeable dulling of detail and saturation.
Since it was shot and edited on digital, wouldn’t these prints be of a lower generation anyway, even compared to the BDs (which AFAIK have the same resolution of their “negatives”)? But they could be useful for their roughly filmic look and their original unaltered scenes (like the one discussed here).
