The LFN Pwnage edition is great. It has anamorphic picture, balance/smoothing applied to the GOUT image, burned in subtitles for Greedo, and the three sound mixes (theatrical stereo, mono, and the THX stereo like we had on the LDs I guess).


The one thing I don't like about that custom DVD (apart from the lack of the 70mm mix, which isn't the author(s) fault since it wasn't available yet) is the "shaking" back and forth which sometimes occurs with the image horizontally. I didn't really get what people were talking about until I saw this, and it's very evident in a few scenes (especially the lightsaber duel).

So I'm really looking forward to seeing this...

 

If I had three versions that all had such features (stabilized image, anamorphic, theatrical sound, subtitles), I could put my GOUT back into storage... ;)

Don't get me wrong I see why people are giving the original Star Wars primary attention in these projects, but the last two movies need some love too!
