Last night I have seen Empire of Dreams after a long, long time (maybe even the first time since 2004). I have immediately noticed a few things about the movie clips :

 

Star Wars

  •  original crawl, no "Episode 4 A New Hope"
  • orange/blue binary sunset scene
  • blue lightsaber during the training sequence
  • correct colors of the final shot

 

Empire

  • correct lightsabre colors
  • orange tint in the corridors of the cloud city

 

Jedi

  • correct lightsabre colors
  • original "burnt-in" Jabba subtitles
  • "correct" Darth Vader ending

 

The shots were desaturated, but their colors look just like the screenshots

from the theatrical bootlegs. Was there any official explanation, where do these shots come from ? Or any "good sounding" theory ? :)
