Zombie, I watched the ANH HD version on HBO today, and then popped in the 2004 ANH DVD, and you may have a better eye then me, so tell me if I am wrong, it wasn't THAT much better. I think HD is great, and 1080i is better then 720i, so I am not disputing HD is better, but if the OOT came out fully restored on DVD this year and looked exactly like the 2004 versions without all the SE crap, I would be satsfied forever. I know HD is the wave of the future, and I have an HDTV, so I see all the great programming it has, but I am just not that psyched of HD-DVD the way I was when DVD came out in 1997, cause DVD was such a leap from VHS and Laserdisk, it was so obvious the resolution difference when something was restored 16 x 9. HD-DVD will be better of course, but I am not itching for all my movies to be released like I was when DVD took off in the late 90's. What do you think?
