I didn't say they consider it a restoration.  In fact, I'm not quite sure myself why the decision was made.  If someone wants to dig back through the thread, they'll find Throwgncpr's explanation of why the previous team made the same decision - I'm guessing it's the same reason this time round.

I'll see if I can get an official explanation, but no promises.

I talked about this whole Purist thing with boon (who didn't even want ANH:R at FE at all!) a while back, then with Ady. Neither of us can understand the reasoning, especially considering some of the other edits that are allowed there.

Oh well, at least people can still learn about the Purist here. This is the kind of place they all find eventually. :p

I hope you don't mind, Adywan, but in the newer copies of the DVD-9 I give out to people I've taken out the subtitle in which you accidentally claim to be Harrison Ford :)

(Don't worry, I still got the proper layer break and all that intact)

A coworker and her kids watched the first half this weekend. One of her kids said, "this is the same movie."

I did tell the coworker that it will be more obvious towards the end.

My Godson dropped me an e-mail (in bright green comic-sans) informing me that he has now seen ANH:R "tonnes of times".

He thinks that the changes may be somewhere near the end (bless).

I sent him a link to the comparison page and he loves spot the difference books so hopefully that will keep him occupied for 15 nanoseconds.

Teach him how to turn on the text commentary track.

He is nine years old and probably not as obsessed as I was when I was that age.

With ANH? Just as George has planned it... ;)

Please Help!!!!!

I saw SWIV in theaters the day it was released in 1977, and my cousin and I saw every showing that day for the outrageous price of .75 (US) cents. 

So, I love SWIV. 

I have never heard of fan edits before Thursday evening, when I read about "Dr Gonzo". Searching for a torrent of that edition, I ran across someone mentioning Adywan being the ultimate fan. I was skeptical to say the least.

I read every post, but my eyes are killing me, I'm super busy and I just can't keep going. I'm on page 227 and I have over a hundred to go and I can't find the info that I need.

I downloaded and found the NTSC DVD 9, but it came with a "VIDEO_TS_files_fixed" file. I don't know what to do with that.

Can someone please just help me without being a smarty-butt? What do I do with the ISO and the VIDO_TS_files_fixed files? Do you replace them, if so how, I tried and couldn't replace the files, my computer wouldn't let me do that.

So, any help would be greatly appreciated. I tried on Mac and PC, to no avail.

As a side note, it seems like Adywan is a miracle for me. He's done something to bring back one of my best childhood memories. He did what millions of pounds and dozens of "pros" couldn't or wouldn't do.

So at this really late junction, Adywan, THANK YOU!!

To do this for free, without personal profit...you are a good man!

Thanks for help in advance,

Dave 

One last thing, I think it's amazing that the "Carrie!!" scream from Luke is still in there! Awesome!

I cannot believe, Adywan, what you have done and continue to do with ESB. I am completely floored, teary eyed at times, at what you have accomplished. I don't understand why LFL didn't do most of this with the SE? They the manpower, the $$, but not the passion I guess.

Well, again, I'm totally blown away and I'll be giving copies to family and friends who are huge fans for xmas, complete with liners and labels!

Thanks again Adywan!!

Which myth? Never heard of it, it just sounds like he says Carrie, lol! 

BTW, I just found a page where Adywan says if you DL'd from Demonoid, that you have to scrap that. Is that true? I played it, with VLC, but I wanted to make a DVD for friends, but are there errors and that's why there's is that other folder of corrected .vob, etc files?

Thanks again all!

edit:

I figured it out. I just burned it using a different program, and it works fine. Looks amazing, better than when I played the .iso file using VLC.

Again, Adywan, your work is the finest! You belong at LFL, as a supervisor!! I am so thankful, and I so wish I had found this back when you were in the production process.

My friends and family will love this too, thanks for making a dream come true, one I didn't even think was possible.

And for the Carrie, I must have heard that somewhere, but I don't remember. I thought I always remembered that, since I was a kid, but clearly it's not there! Our imaginations are wonderful and powerful things!

Thanks all for reading.

I thought (and still think) it was an intentional joke. Either way, it's quite funny and I love it!

I think Ady mentioned once that it was some kind of timing thing that happened in between the DVD5 and DVD9.  I have both and on the 5 "That's me!" is in the correct spot.  When he made the 9, he made some minor change to something that affected the timing by a second or so but didn't adjust the text commentary track along with it.

What he changed was the credits, actually. In the DVD5, his credit comes shortly after Lucas'. Sometime between the 5 and 9 he realized that the SEs just added their credits to the end of the original ones, so he followed suit. However, removing his giant "Revisited by" credit changed the timing for the commentary, which slipped his mind when he finalized the DVD9.

Does anyone have extra copies of the DVD-9 Star Wars Revisited film?

After viewing the dvd-9 version of Star Wars Revisited I noticed a difference between my dvd and the youtube video's. On the youtube video I noticed Panda Baba's arm and hove replacing Dr. Evazen's hand. In dvd-9 version that I downloaded it is Evazen's hand which was cauterized. 

Which is the most current version?
