if someone could take the best version from subcin which is on 3 single layers and put it on maybe 1 0r 2 dual layer discs it would be great.

Or maybe even someone could track the the vhs source used to master it and someone on these boards could do a reel good quality transfer of it.

this really should be known as the Coppola Roughcut or producers's cut because it was probalbly taken from a vhs dupe of one of the video masters and given to some producer on the film.

What I really would like to see is a comp of the Lucas/Milius script with the documentary and the Vietnam chopper footage from more american graffiti to show what his vision would have been. Maybe even a fan documentary could pan away from the script and comp in The Scenes that were put in return of the jedi with the ewok's against the imperials to show a bit of the flavor of his original vision of the little guy triumphing over the machine.

Too bad he never made it because it would've been brilliant directed by Lucas, co written by milius produced by Coppola, and the sound mix was going to be done by Walter Murch. Lucas probalbly would
have done what he did with graffiti and his friend later did with forest gump on the music part of it.
