I watched this all the way through today.  Very, very nice work on bringing the colors much more in line with what they should be compared to the official releases- really gives it a different feeling completely. 

It occurred to me watching it that "Star Wars" is actually a fairy tale- not science fiction. 

When Ben appears and uncloaks his hood,  the entire frame turns really, really bright and white.  He is like the white wizard with a halo all around him.  That's why he wears a hood too. 

The Force and the force theme are magic- it's fantasy, a fairy tale.

I don't know why, but I realized that for the first time, seeing it with the new colors. Anyway, great job.

LOL dude. I'm glad you figured it out, but I think I'll always be puzzled by people who think that Star Wars could possibly be considered a work of science fiction.

It's interesting that the very scene that made you aware of this is the very scene whose colors/very high contrast are so controversial. In general, people like a slightly less bright scene with more distinct colors - even Harmy. But the IB print it was being timed to had it as released here.
