A Real Special Edition
How would you Remastered The OOT, If you had Lucas' Money and Power?
-------------------------
I would Remastered the OOT Only (not 97/06 SE)
I would keep Lucas away from the project, even if I had to do this:

I would use the classic footage before the effects had been added. (this is something Lucas acts like he does not have, but he does because they had to have use the clean Visual Effects footage to restoration the Visual Effects for the 2006 SE DVDs.)
All footage (also Delete scenes) would be remastered in HD, Then the "DMR" (Digital Remastering) process that allowed conventional films to be upconverted into IMAX format.
I would hire Charles de Lauzirika (2007 Blade Runner DVDs) and Gary Kurtz to produce the project.
I would hire all the OOT Visual Effects artists that I took get to recreate all the Visual Effects and have all of the recreated Visual Effects filmed with IMAX cameras.
I would have John Williams recreate all OOT music and have it Recorded in HD Audio.
I would hire Paul Hirsch to edit all the Footage to recreate the Editing of the OOT.
I would have Weta Digital (not ILM which sucks these days) do some Digital effect if they are needed. Mainly, want to keep the effect to Retro (old-School) Effects, but some lasers, star backgrounds and electric effects maybe better with some Digital Effect as long as they look like the classic effects.
I would keep the colors, look and feel of the film true to the time they were film in. Star Wars with 1970's earth tones in mind. ESB and ROTJ with 1980's muted tones in mind.
This would be a real restoration of the OOT (no new things) and all new footage would only be Shot-By-Shot recreating of Visual Effects from OOT film in IMAX and remastered in HD.
I would also have the Star Wars Holiday Special Remastered too.
I would have it release on Blu-Ray and DVD by IMAX DVD (not FOX DVD).
