Very cool, I will definitely get this when it's available.  Question: what's the actual size of the movie on the commercial disc, with just the English angle and soundtrack?

 The bitrate on the bluray is around 34Mbps i think, so it should be roughly about 35GB depending on audio bitrate.

I'm glad you guys liked it. One thing I would like some input on is how the pod cover should look, should it be blue in both scenes (it's desaturated then blue in the bluray) or should both be desaturated?

Looks nice. Hopefully no offense taken indeed about the color. A different end goal than Harmy, clearly.

I get it that he is trying to get it to look like the orginal filmprint (hence that greenish warm look as seen in 4th screenshot), the problem is that it's so inconsistent. The white walls in the opening scene goes from neutral, to cold, to red, to green from scene to scene. The thing is that your eyes adapt really quickly so you don't really spot it when you watch is as a normal movie (I didn't), but if you watch it togheter with video scopes or side by side with another version it becomes really apparent. My guess would be that they didnt do a CC before they did a filmstock grade. It's superhard to do a grade when the colors isn't consistent in the first place. I might be wrong though and it doesn't really destroy the overall excellent work, no ones perfect, mine will prob have tons of bugs to if you look close enough :) Working as intended is always a possibility as well :)

And it shouldbe noted that some of the stuff will never look good, some of the tatooine scenes are pretty much beyond saving, it's not like working with a raw format were you can pull the colors all over the place, some time the picture just fall apart when you go to far from the original.
