I just had to... this comparison disturbs me on so many levels. GOUT was released in 2006, if the guy who wrote it refer to the original year of release it should be 1983. ;) Secondly, it's not the same visual effects in the original film as in the SE, hence not exactly the same shot. Third, the '93 THX transfer is not a good example in how that shot is supposed to look, that transfer is horribly green tinted in many of those space battle shots.

But in the end it's all pretty pointless when the last thing Lucas want is to make his new edits look anything like the original films, don't be surprised when the colortiming differ in his new video releases when the goal of these versions wasn't to replicate the original color pallette in the first place. (not to be confused with the various glitches in the 2004-master of course;)

The day when the original films get released (if it ever happens) is when I will start to bitch about colors if something looks funny, these fake versions isn't even worth the energy.
