Guys I am busting my ass to make this happen, We had a last minute update from Mr hairy_hen and we think it is definitely worth it, so I had to scrap the BD and I am right now doing a new re authoring then I will prepare it for Usenet, passwords will be posted May 4th!

 

Is the Star Wars from the OT going to be released at the same?

Awesome DJ! I'm not in any rush at all, but any idea on when the discs would be mailed out to those who donated?  I'm guessing it might be awhile, as I thought you were only going to send completed sets out, but perhaps I am miss-remembering. Thanks again for all your hard work. Looking forward to see fruits of Team Blu's labor.

I was going to wait for Sets but it is going to take far to long and I think I will send them out as we finish, and yes it will take me a little more time, like I said above I got a nice new file from hairy_hen so I had to re do the BD, but I am all caught up now and I should have all ready to go for Sunday, I will start burning the BD's for you guys this weekend and through the coming up week.

SW77 is burned watching now on my Panasonic Blu-ray player. Amazing. I simply cannot believe that this comes from the non anamorphic DVD. How did you and you_too pull this much detail from it. I love the menu design. It is very professional. Best I have seen so far from Team Blu. Every thing seems to navigate fine on my hardware player. I checked out the before and after image gallery. Played fine and boy does it reveal the magic in this restoration. The covers are awesome but I have to figure out how I can print them as I don't have a printer. May have to buy one.:) This is a fine release and definitely worth the wait.

Great news!  Unfortunately,  I've spent the last two days trying to recover my old myspleen account info. A fresh invite would make the galaxy a great place again!

 It's not on myspleen, at least not yet.

That's great DJ. I'm sure this will make everyone's May 4th even better. I will be checking my mail much more often over the next few weeks. Thanks again for all you and your teams hard work!

Seconded. 25GB is a lot to download without having an idea of what a release looks like.

Just burned the 97SE and watching now. Dark Jedi said that far less time was spent on this version compared to the original. Still looks pretty darn good. Likely the best that this version of the film will ever look. The one thing that really impressed though, is the amazing Cinema DTS audio. It sounds great and transports me back to the theater when I watched the Special Editions. A nice menu and a couple of vintage extras make this a worthy addition to our Star Wars video collections.

Please just go back to your own "popular" release, I have read your very annoying posts in both Ady's and harmy's threads, you just love to argue and to feed your own very large ego and I really do not want to read your crap here, I am pretty sure NO ONE does, plus our release is 720p so please just move along.

Thank you

I see that you live up to your reputation dark_jedi. Always so friendly.
