RETURN OF THE JEDI - ORIGINAL THEATRICAL VERSION RECONSTRUCTION

This is a little Leia to Adywan's Luke. It is an anamorphic reconstruction of the original cut of ROTJ using the HD broadcast of the 2004 version, the GOUT and GKAR German anamorphic digi broadcast of 97SE.

Here is what is changed back to the original version:

FYI: The whole ending celebration is completely back to the original state and the whole film is colour corrected - Here's a colour correction comparison, left is SE right is the RECONSTRUCTION:

The colours are not 100% faithful because it's a JPG but it gives you the general idea - it's pretty subtle for the most part.

OK, I got my good computer back from service and that means I can start working on this soon.

As I already despecialized and colour corrected about 90% of Jedi for my partly-despecialized edition AVCHD and I (along with other people) thought it was pretty much succesful even at 1080p and some people asked me to do an SD version, I decided to make a full theatrical recontruction DVD. I'd like to thank Ericstormtrooper, who said he'd try and help me get the unmasking (and I hope the Rancor as well) scene from GKAR Jedi so I should be able to use that.

I'm gonna try and fix all the changes listed here http://picasaweb.google.com/doubleofive/StarWarsComOfficial2004ChangesRotJ

exept probably some recomposited FX shots.

I'd be very gratefull if someone could point out some further changes that are not on this list if there are some. And also if there are some more things that were not changed in 97 apart from Rancor, eyebrows and ghosts...

Like I said, I already despecialized like 90% for PDE, so it shouldn't really take long to do this but I don't wanna rush it either...

I'm planing on doing both PAL and NTSC versions of this.
