one answer the gout, that is the state of the original trilogy. Non Anamorphic transfers taken from an old 1993 laserdisc master tape. Washed out and not restored, scratches, dirt and bad dvnr.

Even Episode 1 that had a previous non anamorphic laserdisc master lying around got a new telecine in anamorphic for its dvd debut. Despite the fact that it has some edge enhancement problems and a little of the dvnr gone wrong it was released in anamorphic widescreen at true dvd resolution. Laserdiscs are interlaced and not the same resolution as a dvd, so they somehow made the master de-interlaced for the dvd.
