Ever since the release of Rogue One, I feel in love with Star Wars again. I’ve been searching through my basement just to find out that I still have the box set of the DVD “limited edition” release of the original theatrical cut only to find out that it is super grainy and does not fit my tv aspect ratio properly. Even pressing zoom the the TV does not do it justice since I know that the picture is slightly cut off. As a child of the 90’s I grew up watching Star Wars trilogy on VHS and have both THX version and Special Edition version. Growing older, I learn to realize the importance and appreciate how George Lucas had created the movie oringally even though he claimed that it was “incomplete” but to see that true hard work was put into the movie with using only practical effects as we can coin the term these days. Now movies these days are taking the turn for CGI and rarely do they ever come out with movies that have practical effects. I want to experience the original trilogy again but this time the way how it was originally released and how technology would clean up the picture and show how it was truly meant to be shown, not with all the added or edited scenes but knowing that “Han shot first” or the true effects of the late 70’s and 80’s. If someone out there is reading this, I hope that you’ll be able to share the experience and it would definitely make my holiday a great one!
