Another little video. This time, I had a bit of fun with it 😃

Wow, talk about perfect timing!

About three weeks back, after seeing all the advertising for the upcoming new Star Wars, I was talking to my spouse about how to get the original versions. I mentioned that the best version I knew of was the LaserDisc transfers – but then I started to wonder if there was something else. Needless to say, I searched a little, found out about the Despecialized Editions. I downloaded all of them, and we just finished watching Jedi last night. I signed up for the workprint, so I’m excited to see improvements over the incredible version that we just watched.

Since I found out about the Despecialized Editions, I’ve been reading the threads religiously – all the Despecialized threads, as well as the Negative 1 threads. I think I’ve just about driven my spouse crazy, talking about the changes that Lucas did, the effort that people have spent in order to make better versions available, even details about obtaining 35mm film and scanning it, digital video editing techniques, everything.

Needless to say, Harmy, you’ve made me very happy. Thank you.

It’s been nice, having years’ worth of threads available to read. Now I’m caught up with these ones, I don’t know where to go next. I’ve started to take a look at some other fanedits – hopefully I’ll be able to get MySpleen invite at some point in order to check them out.

Once again, Harmy, thanks for taking the effort to make these. I’ve enjoyed them all, but Jedi is my spouse’s favorite (and she was furious when she found out that Lucas got rid of Yub Nub), so a double thanks for this!
