Plus, if these are supposed to be taken from the blu-ray then what colour timing changes have they done, because they are identical to the 2004 versions?

The videos all do originate from moments.starwars.com: all I did was find out the real source of each flash movie and posted it

I can't find anything there that says these are from the Blu set.

Well, at least I can definitely confirm the German version of the site has the new audio mixes made for the Blu-rays with those clips. Ever since the OT's THX-makeover, the German audio tracks were screwed up by some wrong filter settings... now with the mixes being re-done, the German voices sound stunningly crisp. So the audio is definitely Blu-ray sourced - why wouldn't the picture be too?

Well regarding HTML (the script language of websites) there is a CSS class called "screencap" on the shown image, which indicates that these indeed should represent direct screencaps.

If you are interested in one of the stills you can always replace the original 600px in the path with 1000px:

original path:

more resolution path:

i am almost sure the full-hd pics are on the servers as well, but i can't figure out the keyword. you can use '256px', 'thumb', 'blur'.
