2013-2014 will see the release of the new MPEG-H standard. Initial word is half the current file size for equal resolution. 'Ultra High Definition TV' Not sure if this is the same as the h.265

Great news! Terribly excited to see this project... :D
My eyes literally just widened. This is so exciting.
GREAT !
Great news!! :D What with Jaws and the Indy films out on bluray shortly, not to mention the Hitchcock collection, this is shaping up to be quite some year for HD!
Nice.
And in the time of greatest despair, there shall come a savior, and he shall be known as the Son of the Suns.
thanks for the comments and support.
it's going to be pretty quiet from here
on out, until we get done. maybe a few
more frames here and there..
------------------------------------
i think you get the idea with the test
reel, and the filmguard process..
it's been a really fun ride. we'll let
you know when things are ready to
go.
oh, and just to let you know 'i've just made
a deal that will keep the empire out of here forever!' !!!???!!!!!
hmmmm....

...we all know how well THAT turned out...
"Right now the coffees are doing their final work." (Airi, Masked Rider Den-o episode 1)
Yeah, watch out for it getting worse all the time! ;-)
I don't even know what that means =|

just imagine if you could get all the things you
were hoping for..
but it meant you had to deal with someone
that you didn't think you would ever have to.
and you would get the things that normally
you wouldn't be getting anytime soon.
in a way we have met our 'lando'...
that's what happened. don't worry, in a few
years it will all make sense. you'll see..

I hope it doesn't mean that the project is cancelled :-(
I interpret this to mean that someone in 20th Century Fox or Lucasfilm has contacted you and supplied you with archival material direct from the company, but there are certain strings attached.
Interesting....
I wish that I could just wish my feelings away...but I can't. Wishful wishing can only lead to wishes wished for in futile wishfulness, which is not what I wish to wish for.
don't worry, everythings fine.
it's NOT anything officially related.
the deal is getting better for
us each time.
you'll see.

Could it be episode 6?
This is cryptic man.
I have a guess what this might mean. But I'll keep it to myself and we'll see how it turns out. :)
Good luck with whatever deal it is! It sure sounds good.
People, it's Billy Dee Williams! C'mon, it's obvious...
Woah, cool! Can I get his autograph? lol
I'm with You_Too - I think I know who it might be...
Would anyone who thinks they know care to pm me with their speculation? The suspense is killing me.
This wait is getting worse all the time! :D
"a few" = 5

Ok I won't say who I think is your "Lando", but let's say I think it's a certain person you've been in touch with earlier, who knows the right people with the right material, who might have come up with a deal so you can scan a couple certain low-fade prints of ESB and ROTJ, (or maybe more?) as long as the restoration is kept completely underground.
That's my take, as well....
Well either that, or they sold their souls to get access to Lucasfilm's archives. :P
