Guys- we're all flapping our gums for nothing until we find out more about this release. If they screwed up the color/contrast, then there's obviously a problem. But if it's just a straight transfer of the trilogy, obviously it'll beat an LD cap.

That having been said, I support the XO project all the way; what harm can it be? The more versions, the better. At least the revised opening crawl from 1981 will be preserved; that isn't supposed to be on the official release.

Anyhow, our problem here is that we want immediate answers when the real answer comes in September. Nothing is certain until then. I'm a little disappointed that the release we've all been waiting for is bringing some of us into the juvenile poster category. I'm thrilled that this is being released, with original colors, impact flashes, sabers, correctly-mixed music, and so on. To me, it's the ultimate correction of the 2004 DVD's. In that way, I'm actually REALLY glad that they're not putting any effort into restoring it to the quality of the 2004 DVD's, with Lowry Digital. Because we all know how that turned out.

I'm really looking forward to putting a PCM track on this DVD when it comes out, though. I really can't wait.
