Fuck it. I’m so tempted to buy the burned Despecialized Blu-Rays off ebay. I’m beyond sick of this. Fuck you Lucas you old bastard. No one likes your Prequels no matter how hard you whore them.
Mate, just download them from myspleen - please don’t give money to the pricks on ebay profiting off Harmy and everyone who contributed to making the DeSepecialised Editions happen.
The problem is the Despecialized editions simply aren’t good enough. The colour timing is way way off. In the case of A New Hope it’s dire. Silver Screen edition is great, but for the sequels all we have is the grindhouse versions.
I think they are great - though I am not fussed by stuff like the colour timing being ‘way way off’ etc - for me right now the DeSpecialised Editions and the 35mm SSE & Grindhouse are the best way to watch the OT - and certainly far better than the pitiful official releases we are continuously being sold.
The eventual work/release of the v3 DeSpecialised Editions will likely see even better results than before too, along with the continuing work on the 35mm by the other lads.
