LOL, like I said, some here have HUGE boners over these laserdiscs still, and it cracks me up...
I don't know about "HUGE boners", but the GOUT is a giant mess of motion blur that can never ever be fixed. 35 mm transfers are nice to dream about, but they're going to remain a dream for some time to come. A proper official OT re-release is an even more immense dream. Reconstructions are nice, but come with their own flaws (especially inherited flaws from their sources). Puggo's 16 mm ESB project looks promising, but we'll have to wait and see.
So that kind of leaves the rest of us with very limited options...

these just look like pure SHIT on nowaday systems, and if you don't think so, then YOU don't have a nowaday HDTV setup, unless it is in the 20 inch or smaller range.
I've watched quite a few LD rips on this TV with friends, and nobody's ever complained about the quality (they definitely complained about VHSes). I don't know the exact size, but I know it's bigger than 40 inches.
