You do realize it is going to make it hard to enjoy these movies now, I will be focusing in on all the crap now.

Man, that's been my problem ever since I started reading this site. It's all 005's fault! Matte lines...
Imagine what it's like to be me and try to watch the movies again!*

Yeah, I can only imagine how it must be.

It's not like the problems with the new home video versions is any news if you ever was familiar with the look of the original films. In 2004 everyone that knew and loved these films got a headache of how incompetent the transfer was, not that it looked different, but that it was handled in sush amateurish ways. The Empire Strikes Back SE even succeeds in such a rare occasion to crush black levels and blow out whites at the same time, not a bad accomplishment.

I sat down and watched a leak of the DVD version in 2004 with a couple of friends and I immediately asked my buddy if his system was calibrated correctly, and he said of course it is, and I seriously was ready to puke of what I saw but they thought I was weird to even comment on the colors as the resolution was so fucking amazing. I told them I couldn't watch that version even if I liked the stupid additions, simply told = I was a weirdo in their eyes, and I probably still is.

Anyway, some time has gone since that leak, and one of the guys who saw the DVD-leak with me that day said to me recently, "it seems that they still haven't fixed the colors." when he watched the blu-ray, funny that you are an idiot when mentioning something the first time, and then later you hear something is still wrong with the transfers...
