I watched… 4K Blu-ray recently and… It was great to have a clean-up version of the film.

Not sure why you edited my quote but…

I’m well aware that the 4K Blu-rays are not perfect as they were meant to be masters for the 3D conversion, but I did enjoy A New Hope on 4K Blu-ray. The color timing is vastly superior to the old Blu-rays (obviously).

When I say “cleaned up” I was mostly referring to the removal of garbage mattes and the superior compositing of elements related to work done on the Special Edition. 😃

I’m also a huge fan of the filmic look of 4K77 as I stated in my previous post.

It’s a shame we didn’t get definitive box set with all the different versions of the films without unnecessary digital processing. But hey, they’ve got to give us some reason to keep this site going…

Best,
