Also, I notice that is not a very large jpg file: it seems to be showing noticeable JPG artefacting. Implying that the original source is likely a certain degree clearer.
I must agree with your comment about the restored version, Laserman. It is frankly absurd that Lucasfilm is claiming there is no way to make a restored version of the OT, since their first step would obviously have been to restore most or all of the original trilogy footage as it stood. They would only haev had to work hard on a few bits and pieces that had been heavily modified. And what's the likelihood that simply to keep the process straightforward, they did in fact restore everything? Would they really go through all the footage and say "restore minutes 1-33, skip 2 minutes, restore the next 7 minutes, then skip 1 minute, then ... "
I can only assume that Mr Lucas stands on his pedastal and shouts down anyone of his minions who suggests such a thing.
