Maybe they are all just too scared to criticize anything in Lucasfilm anymore. This is going to be a nightmare to fix even with the use of the laserdisc 5.1 because upon finer checking that too has problems and the dialogue bleeds into the front L & R channels throughout most of the movie, But ESB & ROTJ are almost perfect.
I guess i have a long way to go yet
