Is Harmy still planning on doing another 720p update of Star Wars? He said after Jedi came out that he was considering making it on par with the other two after he was done with 2.5 of Empire. I asked about this a while ago but didn’t get a reply.
I do recall a post about this not too long ago (probably yours), but didn’t respond because it was the first I had heard of such a thing (a 2.8 or such). If Harmy did say this, do you know if it was before 2.7 existed? Most communication I’ve heard from Harmy on the subject suggest that this is it until 3.0, but things change of course.
You know, it might have been before 2.7. He mentioned it a few days before releasing Jedi 2.5, and the conversation was also surrounding the decision to consider the workprint for 2.0 the “official” 2.0 and then release the updated Jedi as 2.5. He said that he was considering doing an update to SW after Empire in order to bring it up to the same level as the sequels by using TN1 footage to replace the entirely GOUT shots I believe. It didn’t really get mentioned again so I assumed it wasn’t happening.
