I just came across this article, so I thought I’d add it to the others recently posted here -
www.io9.gizmodo.com/gareth-edwards-says-a-4k-restoration-of-star-wars-exist-1790418019
The fact that Gareth is quoted as saying that John Knoll said that there was a brand new 4k restoration print of A New Hope, gives me some optimism…if ‘restoration’ is used in the correct sense by either Gareth or John - as far as I know, there are plenty of 4k upscales of previous 2k movies…and it could easily prove to be the case that they have just done this with the SE too. Hopefully, the usage of the word ‘restoration’ means just that, as it would point to the original movie that’s been ‘restored’.
