Reviewed the DIF of ESB 2004 vs 2019 and below are the significant items for consideration.
- Zoomed in reframing of the entire movie; Crawl to Credits. Results in a loss of picture of about 4.82%.
- Zoomed in reframing cuts off pertinent characters like when Leia says “I don’t think this is wise”.
- Reframing leaves the credit uncentered.
- The shot of Han about to be carbonited, which got a shirt recoloring in 2004, has now been zoomed out.
- A shadow was removed from the Bespin landing platform when Luke and Vader confront each other.
- Stabilization efforts affect the beginning and end of shots.
