-Does anybody here have the old, pre-THX French/German widescreen LDs? They seemingly used a different film source than the JSC master, because while they also have the Greedo scene without the English subs, that one scene is cut in from a clearly inferior print. This suggests that their main source had the burned-in subs, and may not be the same as the JSC, in which case the takeoff composite may be different.
FWIW JSC has a video splice at that point, right after Gringo's last words.
There's two consecutive 3's in JSC's telecine pattern (in GOUT terminology 71933/71934).
Doesn't prove, but suggests JSC's main source could've had subs...
