        I thought you said that the removal of color was due to the aging of the film and the crappy restoration jobs of the past...


    Well i have never said that anywhere. I'd love to know where you think i am supposed to ahve said that.



    I cannot locate the original posts, but I KNOW you've said before that the color information has been lost in some scenes (when you were talking about ANH revisited). People pointed out that some scenes look like black & white with color "pasted on." There are some shots where this is glaringly obvious, like the one where the TIE pilots follow Vader down that hallway to meet the Rebels.


Are you saying you just did this for stylistic reasons, not because of the loss of color information?

I thought you were talking about prior to the 2004 restoration because you said "of the past.." and it was after i posted the pics of the TIEs from the GOUT. Its almost 9am here now and i've been up for the past 24 hours working on this damn edit so my brain is pretty fried.

         Oh, okay, you took the 2004 edition and modified it to create a pseudo-1997 SE...  did you put Luke's "scream" back in there? ;)

Sounds like it's as much a fan edit as the "Classic Editions,"...

 

Fan edits and restorations are 2 separate things. A fan edit changes the movie where as a restoration returns it to its original state or , as in the laserdisc transfers, archives a movie that is only available on an obsolete format and transfers it to a modern day format in the best possible quality. The revisited saga is a fan edit, my AVCHD is a restoration. They even include their theatrical audio from the laserdiscs, so yes, Lukes scream is restored

 

I really need to end this now. I've spent so much time on this subject i'm exhausted now and lost time i should have been spending on the edit. :)
