So, trying to keep up here but it seems like in order of completeness it goes like this:
-70mm via 8mm commercial
-1993 GOUT (/1995 US LD/ 2006 DVD) -->Edited according to 35mm version with fading-in Emperor
-1985 US LD -->adds Emperor scanlines
-1986 JSC(/1992 US LD) -->adds (and in some cases replaces) horizontal scanlines to all screens and holograms
-1997 SE (/2004 DVD) --> adds further elements plus the original pre-1986 dot screen
So, it looks like "chronologically", the GOUT is just a bit less completed than the 1985 LD. Now I am really curious about how "early" it is, and whether there is a transfer from 1984 that is more complete than the GOUT. Because it seems to be the "earliest" or least completed version available on home video. What is interesting is that until the GOUT comes along it also seems like the transfers are progressively being "completed" on home video in 1985 and then 1986. It could just be coincidence, of course, and if it is it makes it all the more bewildering how many different 35mm print masters with varying levels of work seem to exist for the film.
