This is the first thing I thought of when I saw that "1993" comment by Jim Ward and knew that we'd be getting the DC masters on DVD. These most certainly are not "theatrical" versions in respect to the audio, which was remixed and remastered at that time, and in the case of Star Wars, a completely new mix was created. I guess most people aren't even aware of this, or just don't care. Personally, I don't really have a problem with the 1993 sound mix, I actually like it very much. Of course, I'd like to have more audio options, including original audio tracks, but I just don't see George ever giving us that much.

As for the crawl, I'm sure they're just splicing it in as others have already speculated. It's kind of funny, this version of Star Wars will really be a completely new version created solely for this release. Theatrical, eh?

The 1993 sound elements (especially Beru's voice) still trouble me greatly, though.

Why would Beru's voice trouble you? The voice heard in the '93 mix is the original voice. The alternate voice appeared only in the mono mix, which was the last of the original theatrical mixes to be released.
