So, this is my plan, which I have just started. I am going to compile ALL the Star Wars movies [...] and re-author each of them so they go in a nice set. I won't be ripping the Original Trilogy; rather just finding the best one and recompiling it. [...] If all the releasers want to chip in, we can make "the ultimate" saga collection for ourselves.


Maybe I'm missing the point, but what's the point? Sounds like you're going to take TR47's 1-disc versions, and re-author them as 1-disc versions. Then you'll take the official DVDs of the PT, and make downgraded versions of the official versions, as 1-disc versions. Oh, and you'll throw in some stuff that has been done before, but as a 1-disc version.

To me, this does not sound very "ultimate". It doesn't even sound very "worth the time at all." You're welcome to do whatever you like, of course, but I'm really curious as to why or how you think "all the releasers" will want to "chip in" on what sounds to me like a highly-derivative vanity project.

If you want my opinion as to what's "ultimate," I'd say buy yourself an LD player (a good one), a cap card (a good one) and a hard drive (a big one). Then take about two years to fiddle around and get things right. Do something original, in other words.

Personally, I'm really looking forward to the X0 Project, and I'll pass on a dozen projects like this to wait for that real ultimate version.
