Over in forum 9, several people have done amazing things color correcting the 2004 DVDs to look like the original trilogy. Staggering results, but most of them are just doing these as tests, not actually releasing the film this way, and they mostly seem to be using PC so I can't really copy their work.
So I do feel inferior as I'm doing this, because I doubt I can color correct this film effectively to really look the way you might want it to. I am only doing very very basic color correction work.
But I can try, and as always, where others do tests and talk about releasing a version of the movie, I'll do it quick and actually release it so you can enjoy. (Some have made a career out of just talking and have been just talking since the site began with no results.)
And if color corrected 2004 discs start to come out, well, wonderful! I'm excited to see the work of Desree and others. (Especially as I will never revisit Empire or Jedi.)
As for my own work ...
I know this will be a step up in quality from my previous Star Wars edit. This will also be the only one of the Classic Editions where I will make some attempt to color correct the material.
We'll see.
I have already decided to restore more little things to their non-special-edition state than I did previously. Tiny little things that most people wouldn't notice have been changed since 1977.
As before you'll get that wonderful cast commentary I cut together for the original Classic Edition, and the isolated score, and animated menus.
Good times ahead.
