They go great together.

It brings back good memories of the time my cousin came to visit during summer vacation in 1978.
He was nine, I was twelve, and SW was already entrenched as my favorite movie.
He wasn't buying it. He kept insisting SatB was better. I hadn't seen it yet.
When I finally did I liked it a lot, but SW remains my fave.


Except the third screenshot, the others are each the first frame of their respective shots.

^ Continuity error! BTJ's door should be open at that point.

Images do not accurately represent the quality of the R1 DVD. They're only meant to show aspect ratio and framing of the shots.

So what's the verdict? Is your full-screen DVD pan/scan or open-matte?
