I think the DVDs will look quite good, as we haveseen a few of the Original Trilogy scenes onDVD already... in the Empire of Dreams documentary on the bonus disc to the 2004 trilogy release. There is the opening crawl from Star Wars without the "Episode IV: A New Hope" title, scenes on the Tantavie IV without the ugly purple explosions from the blasters, and a whole bunch more. It looks like a decent 16x9 transfer to me!

This is probably a new 16x transfer to DVD without the Lowry cleanup, which was done to the SE master print.

If I am wrong and this is a 4:3 LBX transfer, I wont buy it. As for having the 2004 versions included, luckily I didn;t buy the set in 2004 because I was holding out.

I do agree though... they should give us the 70mm 6-track as a 5.1 Dolby Track, just like was included on the original Spartacus DVD.
