However, I don't expect the same treatment from Lucasflim on this release. Lucasfilm and THX have an excellent track record with presentation of picture and sound. This will be vastly different than a mere laserdisc port... They are going back to the original master for the last version of the OT (which is surely the best possible source that exists anymore) and "exhaustively" cleaning it up and restoring it to a DVD standard.
At least they aren't just re-editing pre-SE scenes into the already existing cleaned up print, for two reasons: There's no chance of them leaving any SE elements in. And we won't have the over-saturated, overly-colored prints that were on the 2004 DVDs.
I'm trying to be as optomistic as the information that's been released so far will allow me, but I'm putting my faith back into Lucas for this release.
*Sniff* I'm sorry, Lucas... I didn't mean what I said...
