Star Wars coming to Blu Ray (UPDATE: August 30 2011, No! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!) — Page 209

It would be a bizarre move.

He might as well print, "Fans of the Theatrical versions need not buy this set!" on the side of the box.

If these are indeed real then where the hell is this so called colour correction that the OT has supposed to have got? 

Is the website down?

No, it's just a bit slow.  It looks as if the usual race to release the first MKV has begun.

'Star Wars' Getting "Improvements" For Blu-Ray Release

Just about every review I've seen of the blurays mentions the lack of the theatrical versions.

Is this really such a niche perspective?

Is this something LucasFilm is playing to, in order to create demand for the theatricals later?

Whatever the reason, it's a good thing, right?  Awareness is good.

The only reason people liked Fett was because of the mystery behind him. How could George not get this?

And his armor.

And my axe!

Wrong trilogy.

Yeah, I saw with my own eyes a very different-looking transfer (well, in terms of overall brightness and contrast), so I didn't think these were legitimate. 

Don't worry, folks, we've only 18 days to go... :-)

Fake / not fake, they've got Mandarin audio, that's at least a neeto in my book.

If these aren't fake then i think that Kenkraly will likely explode because the colars haven't been fixed, or even played with. ;)

alright I'm sorry if I ever said that the colors will be fixed. Even I don't  know if they will be. Sorry I ever said anything about them being fixed.

Apologize at every other place you've posted your comments, and I will forgive you.

I have done that already.

But that would take like four years.  Maybe you meant you plan on doing it?

It took me a long time for me to realizes that where problems with the 2004 dvd releases and I now I understand about all the issues with that set now but before I did'nt.  

So since we are in or close to leak season, what are specific shots or things which people can use to verify if some release is an actual blu-ray rip.  And Part Two: What things should someone check for once it's verified as being a blu-ray rip.

Maybe we should ask ken to write up the definitely list of SW DVD 'Creative Decision' issues.

^WRONG FILM!

I could always go to Wikipedia if I wanted to read about the issues with the 2004 dvd's on the star wars changes page.

But where would we go?
