Took a few screens:
So far i feel mostly MEH on the new 4K versions. Like the 2004 Lowry master they went too far - this time in the opposite direction - with the new color grading. For example, Lukes stromtrooper armor looks greenish/yellow to me. Most of the other 4K screencaps i saw in several threads also suffer from this yellow-ish tint along with washed-out almost monochromatic colors. Very strange.
*bad JFK impersonation-
Think not about what this transfer does for these lame versions of classic films, & think what this transfer can do for wonderful restorations!
another bad JFK Impersonation 😉
We choose to preserve the OT. We choose to preserve the Original Trilogy in this decade, not because it is easy, but because it is hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win.
