Star Wars: OTRD83

What is OTRD83?

OTRD83 is my edit of Return of the Jedi. It is like my Unaltered Cut A New Hope but this edit is mostly based on OTD83 and 4K83.
Name OTRD83 comes from:
Original Trilogy Restored & Despecialized 1983. Every clip which is taken from 4K83 is color-corrected. Every OTD83 clip is edited to match 4K83 color-corrected clips. The film video was edited by me and my friends. We also noticed 9 Special Edition pictures and sound effects in 4K83. We immediately cut them out and replaced them with 2006 Bonus DVD clips.

All Sources
2020 Blu-ray Edition
Disney+
Harmy’s Despecialized Edition v3.0
4K83
OTD83
2006 Bonus DVD

30% of this version comes from Disney+ and 2020 Blu-ray Edition.

We expect you to own an official release of Return of the Jedi before watching!!

you’re not allowed to post direct links to your edit like that.

Technically I am. Harmy’s Despecialized Edition v3.0 Return of the Jedi also posted direct download links on Google Docs.

Sorry, but that is impossible. I don’t know what you and your friends are seeing but 4k83 is taken direct from a 35mm pre-SE print so there is zero chance that there is any special edition changes in there. Could you post some screenshots?

I can make a Docs file where are screenshots. But I remember clearly when editing that there were clearly some Special Edition footage. I am absolutely not sure if it was OTD83 or 4K83 but its color matched original 4K83.

That’s not what I meant. We have clearly added “we expect you to own an official release of Return of the Jedi before watching!”. But any fanedit of mine will not be on physical media, neither is it for sale.

OTD83 is a theatrical reconstruction that states that is is not a 100% faithful recreation as it used the UHD Blu-ray as its source. So it is more likely that you are using that as a source as 4k83 is 100% the 1983 pre-SE version

The colors are not OTD83, but 4K83. Its colors do not match OTD83 at all. And yes, I know OTD83 doesn’t remove every change. But I cannot be sure if the Special Edition footage is from 4K83 or OTD83.
