STAR WARS: EP V "REVISITED EDITION"ADYWAN - 12GB 1080p MP4 VERSION AVAILABLE NOW — Page 970

You can get the OT box set.

nvm, misread what you were saying.

If that's the new rule, I'm game. Good thing this edit has still a long way to go before release. Enough time for prices to drop or get it used, single discs  as Auggie says. I'm in absolutely no rush to get the BDs.

Personally I think its a silly rule.

The television broadcasts are the 2004SE, I have the DVDs, I've paid for them four times (because my sister and god children wanted them), the television broadcasts are not available on blu-ray (the resolution is different from the BD sets and they have different properties).

Naturally I will follow the rules of this site but I shan't get the blu-rays for a very long time (I don't even have the equipment to play them and anyone I know who might want them and does have the equipment would probably buy them for themselves).

QUESTION FOR ADYWAN:

it's funny how taking a fresh look at EMPIRE on a new format such as the BLU RAY, suddenly a scene that you never would have thought twice about, stands out like dogs balls. don't kill me if it's already been discussed, but I didn't see any mention of it on the first pages outlining  Adywans changes

I'm referring to the MYNOCK  scene inside the asteroid/slug, when they go out to investigate, there's a tense noise then  Han yells "WATCH OUT!" then shoots what appears to be an already dead motionless mynock off the hull of the ship and it just drops to the ground without moving.

Is there anyway of doing something with the mynock to make it look like it might actually pose a threat?, maybe a a flurry of movement or a threatening flap of its wings?, or just tighten up the editing so that it looks like Han's reaction wasn't a case of massive over-reacting?   as it is the rest of Mynock 'attack'  doesn't look very effective, the puppets they used were very basic and limited in their wing movement.

Yes, thats the point I'm trying to make. The HDTV broadcasts are essentially the 2004SE. I already own the 2004SE. This HD for HD rule makes no sense especially when the source material is not the same.The BD's are a different release. So why pay the content providers for a fan edit thats based from a release that I have already paid for?

You know what? That's interesting.

ESB:R will be a mixture of HDTV and Blu-Ray sources, with the Blu-Ray being the main source for the edit. I'm just completing transferring the colour correction to the Blu-Ray and then i'll be reapplying the FX work to the sections that are using the new source.

This is probably a dumb question, but what is the advantage of using the Blu-Ray as the main source rather than the HDTV source? Is the Blu-Ray better quality/higher resolution?

Well I guess time to buy that Blu-ray, huh guys?

Does that mean the final edit will now be in 1080p?

Most likely not since all his visual effects were mostly likely done in a 720p format. Am I wrong?

Well it's still a long time off before I need give my ethics barometer a tap.

It would be technically interesting to see the evolution of an ESB:R frame (from back when it was DVD sourced, then HD broadcast sourced, to BD sourced).
