ok!
enough speculation, i think the well has
run dry, and now we're repeating ourselves.
anyways, i'll start a new thread about the 35mm
version soon enough, so we can concentrate on
the details over there, and not in this one. this
was just a more general thread anyways, and
it's gotten quite messy with all kinds of topics.
what we need to still do:

star wars: 35mm theatrical version
-----------------------------------------
restored to its original brilliance and color
in 1080p with theatrical audio soundtracks

but first a look back at how we got here:
==========================================================
a long time ago, in a galaxy far far away....
---------------------------------------------
i was a 10 year old, living in calgary, alberta - canada,
during the fall of 1977. i had heard about a movie
called star wars, but had not seen it yet. finally
after friends had told me about it, i saw the toys,
the commercials, and decided to go. so sometime in
the fall, i went. i don't remember the exact day,
but my life was never the same again. the impressions
of the opening crawl, the flyover with the destroyer,
luke, the droids, ben, leia, han, chewie, and of course
darth vader all became a permanent part of my psyche.
the light sabers amazed, the x-wings, and death star
were sights to behold. the story, the tale, had
captured my imagination. i would go on to read the
books, buy the comics, bedsheets, you name it. to
this day, i still have my original c3p0 and r2d2
action figures, and all my collectors cards...
closing the trilogy, the special editions, and the prequels
-----------------------------------------------------------
......................
your turn.. hitting the 35th anniversary and more.
================================================
spread this movie. show it to your friends.
tell people you are watching the original star wars!
we are happy to share it with you, because we
enjoyed it also... and we hope you will too.
it was a labor of love.
but in the end, despite the issues,
the time, and money spent. it was
all worth it..
we hope that this inspires people, and
we especially thank george lucas, and lucasfilm
first and foremost for creating it.
it may have been a long time ago in a galaxy
far, far away....
but not anymore. we hope to celebrate
many more anniversaries with you and
watching it as it was meant to be.
may the force be with you.
