Wow! So I guess bphil won’t be let off-the-hook too easily.

As with other Star Wars laserdiscs, does “From Star Wars to Jedi: The Making of a Saga”, too, have preferred (“better” or “least problematic”) pressings? And there’s always the NTSC/PAL normalization factor.

Looks really cool, … Though, I would be less distracted during the SD parts if they just had regular black pillar-boxing, rather than what’s on there now.

Well, Star Trek (TOS) Remastered had a version that “slipped out” through Netflix and other pay-for-view outlets. That version was from the master for creating either pillar-box or vertical-cropped-widescreen editions:

Would that changing-aspect-ratios look better than the present “TV news widescreen-filler” look? Or are there other options for the widescreen filler?
