The idea that their monitors are a different class then the TVs in most people's homes, provides another wrinkle to how the films look different dependent upon the equipment you use.

The claim that ESB came out too blue because they were using better monitors is, frankly, laughable.

exactly. It's just more spin to try to make out there is nothing wrong with the colouring done on the 2004 set. Here's an example below that blows the "we were using better monitors" excuse right out of the water. Now nothing has been done to these two images. These frames are as they appear in the 2004 transfer:

Now how the hell can they say that the colour problems are sown to consumer monitors? Now, although these are 2 separate shots in the edited scene, you can see that they are originally one longer shot that was split for editing purposes. Now why would the colouring be so different if the colouring was correct? Do they have magical monitors that adjust the colours between shots so that everything looks perfect? No. And why was the first shot NEVER green in any other transfers of ESB that had ever been done? Do they really think that people are so dumb that they will believe that the set looks so bad because its the consumer equipment at fault? well to be honest yes, there are those who argue that the colours are perfect as its "George's true vision" and that Hoth should be completely blue because it's an ice planet etc. But what about those who have correctly calibrated monitors? Is this guy trying to say that Lucasfilm have the only monitors in the world that are correct? Bull.

I don't know how you are going to like or dis-like this suggestion Adywan, but even if you just did a color correction to the blu-rays once they came out and made that available, Im sure there would be quite a few shouts of admiration from the star wars fan community....
