Star Wars fans are a tough crowd. You all watched it on VHS for years and loved it.

I think a lot of people are used to clean digital images and it’s like they are offended by grain these days. I love what Harmy has done but I feel the Despecialized editions are way over processed. It’s a function of coming form the Blurays and uprezzed, being compressed and then re-color graded and being compressed again.

Watching this feels very natural. It needs some work for sure but this is my go to version for now. I think Mike Verta is going to blow everyone out of the water with his version though but that will be a tough one to get.
