Then there's the fully restored version that you sit down on your couch and watch on a normal 1920x1080p HDTV and looks just the way it was intended as Lucas sat there going over preview screenings getting the film ready for release (or as close as possible, given the sources available, uncertainty about exact color timing on certain shots and so on). With space being inky black and these mattes and such not visible at all even in a very dark living room viewing environment, etc. That's certainly the version I look forward to seeing in any Star Wars preservation/restoration project when I actually watch it for real in front of my HDTV with some popcorn and an ice cold Coke. :)

Completely agree. But obviously this discussion is always trickier with SW than any other film because the word "intended" has been abused by Lucas et al. over the decades.
