While Modern fans are at the height of excitement over the blu ray release, my fan interest in star wars is at its lowest ebb in my history with star wars as a avid fan.

TFN fans will be ecstatic at the messed up colors and crushed blacks and poor audio mixes.  They will love the fact that these were not even scanned at 2003-4 HD ceiling on resolution, no indeed only 1080P when they were doing 2-4k scans back then.  And now they do 6-8 k and up, with much better tech advanced in seven years.

The 2004 master is at an obsolete resolution, and not even up to release print 35mm quality.

Its an outrage.

 

Lucas its good enough and cheap enough approach it will get passing grades and high marks despite not being a demonstration quality blu ray release, and it won';t look film-like.

Really a joke when you consider they spent a record amount of money in 1994-1997 to restore the original elements to make the special edition, which Lucas did not pay for Fox did.
