Great. More contrived facts.


At least you recognize them as facts, finally

Okay, firstly, please stop line-by-line quoting. once or twice is fine. But it's not like I can't just scroll up and re-read what I wrote if one of your responses loses me. It's not that hard. It makes arguing with you over something so ridiculously silly even more tiring.

and as far as your excuses for fucking your transfers up constantly goes, maybe if you spent less time measuring your dick all day with your constant fishing for ego hits via screencap showoffs, and more time studying up and working on the set itself, you'd have the set correctly done by now. Yunno, kinda like how Zion is already farther along with a better quality capture.

Anyway, once again, you keep trying to pull this "You don't think Lucas could EVER make a mistake" crap on me, and I've already said that's bullshit. Stop trying to use it. The whole point of my original posts was to say the color on these DVD's is fucking phenomenal. We're debating the color on these DVD's...which is why you bringing up the goddamn SOUNDTRACK makes no sense. You ignore the excerpt from the TEXTbook, you write off the comments by the premier name in film restoration--you can't even figure out how to encode a capture properly, but YOU know how these movies should look better than Robert Harris and George Lucas? You think that if Harris had noticed a "Blue Push" and had an issue with oversaturation, he WOULDN'T have mentioned it? those are significant flaws in a transfer. Someone who's career is dedicated to restoring film would NOTICE those flaws. the fact he didn't mention them should say something to you. the fact that there is documented AND anecdotal proof that pre-dvd transfers were routinely overbright as a standard practice should make you stop and think.

But instead, you're busy trying to place yourself on some sort of pedestal because you're sticking it to Lucas, and playing know-it-all about the color scheme of a set of movies you probably don't even really remember seeing theatrically. Meaning your point of reference were a series of overbright laserdisc transfers on TV sets you didn't even think to calibrate correctly until just recently. And you're trying to tell the rest of the people on this site that YOUR opinion on what the colors are supposed to look like is to be trusted? YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT HALF THE TIME, man. You have a working ignorance of how DVD's are made, and you can't even correctly figure out how to make your own.

Get back to work.
