Hello Harmy - just wanted to add that for years I've gone without watching my favorite movies like I had gone through some sort of bitter divorce with an ex-wife. It was just too painful to watch those "fun bonus discs" in all their non-anamorphic glory on my HD widescreen TV.  But seeing your versions have helped me to fall back in love with Star Wars all over again.  You've restored my sanity after nearly being driven crazy with anger towards the man responsible for my love of filmmaking in the first place!


I would like to add some suggestions for v1.2:

•    Someone else mentioned the Falcon fleeing the Death Star. I assume this is referencing the blue halo effect I saw behind the Falcon.

•    The shot of Luke before he boards his X-Wing (which takes place just seconds before he meets up again with Biggs in the Special Edition) looked strange to me - like it was in slow motion and grainier than normal.  Was wondering if there was a way to make this brief moment look more natural?

•    I also noticed the final shot of the movie looks as if it's standard definition.  (I assume this is because the original credits are presented intact.)  Is there any way to switch to the original credits after we see "Directed by George Lucas"?  I just hate that such an iconic moment in the movie takes you out of the movie due to such a jarring difference in picture quality.

 

Thanks!
