I'm curious, now that the shock of the clarity of the blurays has worn off. Which versions of the films actually look better? Most likely your watching the DVDs upconverted anyways. Which ones blend the effects better, and have a better feel to them?

For me...

Audio Quality on the Blurays wins out every time... RotJ is hard with the NO though.

Video

Ep 1: Pretty even, BR a bit better, but inconsistant. DVD a bit worse, but consistant.

Ep 2: DVD. Not really feelin the teal shift, and I think that the clarity of the BR reveals some of the CGI blending issues.

Ep 3: BR looks amazing. No comparison.

EP 4: I prefer the DVD. It helped blend some of the over the top CGI in better. The BR felt inconsistant, with some scenes looking great and others definitely showing age.

Ep 5: BR for clarity. Not a big difference.

Ep 6: BR for clarity. Not a big difference.
