I'm really sorry if I gave the impression I'm ticked off or ungrateful. I was confused, and should have read through this thread better. When all is said and done, Team Negative 1 will have achieved what most Star Wars fans have hoped would happen since George Lucas claimed the theatrical cuts had been effectively taped over. It'll take longer to get there than I originally thought, but holy crap it's almost a reality.

Like, when you think about the notoriety of the Special Editions and Lucas' determination to keep the previous versions out of public consumption, this restoration is one of the most important in cinematic history, and entirely fan-made to boot. The only thing that could top it is if, against all odds and recorded knowledge, someone pieced together the original cut of The Magnificent Ambersons.
