....I wonder therefore if the extra brightness boost is not actually an attempt to fix anything but merely compensating for the dulling quality of the polarized 3D glasses.
That could actually be true... I never thought of it that way. People would be complaining so much if the 3D was dark, as the 2004 DVDs were already somewhat dark due to overcontrasting.
Despite reservations about 3D, I do hope the whole series gets re-released since it will open Star Wars up to theaters again for a whole new generation... Hopefully, it won't look too awful.
