 Ok but now that one of the best rendition of ANH has been done, why not proposing something else, different. I mean Ady's work is not what I would call a fan-edit: it's a true restauration (with very little bits of fan edits).

"So what else can be done?" - Ok. And forget Ady's work: it's done, and it's been done in respect to everyone's expectations. Proof is here.

Let's take it easy with the "restoration" description being applied to ANH:R.  The color-correction aspect could be described as restoration, yes.  But this is a fan-edit of the highest-order.  And I mean that in a complimentary manner, both in what Ady strove for and what he achieved.

With that said, NOTHING tops SW77 for me, followed by ANH81.  ANH:R is a nice occasional alternative, but it's not a replacement for my viewing.  I watch Star Wars probably once every 2 months, fwiw.
