I recently bought the Empire GOUT Disc. I noticed the various instances of ghosting and these murky white blobs around all spacecraft. Is all this caused by the digital video reduction thing put on the "Definitive Collection" laserdiscs? What exactly is that thing anyway? The disc is certainly watchable-even blown up to 16:9. It's marginally better than my old tape set (Those were unfortunately fullscreen). For people wanting the original versions this is about as good as it gets at the present. Something occurred to me: Isn't there a better transfer of the Trilogy? What ever happened to the "One last time" 1995 THX release? Or maybe, gasp!, go back to the original negatives that had to be restored back in 1997 in order to do the first Special Edition!
