Now the reason I think that both Fox and Lucasfilm have'nt released any details on the saga and prequel and original trilogy BD boxed sets is because they haven't started work on them and I think they will start work and when they are ready to release a date it will be either in May or June. So don't rush yo judgement on the Star Wars blu-rays until they are finished and they are out in September.
Because nothing says quality like a 4 month rush job. Isn't that what the 04 DVDs were?

According to what info Zombie was able to find it was done in 30 days by Lowry. They were only the DVNR/ clean up people, Lucasfilm had already transferred them to hard-drives, working at 1080P from a new scan of the o-neg.

Lucas also supposedly fine tuned the color timing himself as a supervisor, but why are they so messed up.

There is no reason to believe Lucas went back and did a high res scan, for all intents and purposes even without direct confirmation i believe the blu rays will be from the 2004 master after Lowry's clean up was done.

1080 only for a blu ray release as the origin resolution is piss poor, they used that way back like 10 or 11 years ago for some DVD release masters.
