Much better. Unfortunately I cannot help you. :p

Crap… I thought at first it was part of the interchange between the meat vendor and that thief Jar-Jar, whom immediately got karma-slapped by Sebulba… My bad for not checking (and for not writing this at home where it would be easier to corroborate such things); you’re right, carry on with your valid reference.

Edit: Maybe I really do need to work on my sleep habits, I’m really slipping lately.

That sonovabitch Jar-Jar ruins everything!

Well, to continue this wanna stuff and make up for my mistake by offering an actual prequel reference (hypocritical? totally).

I don’t see how a sentence with “bunky na booty” can make anything worse.

Just to say I used this Jedi Grindhouse, along with Star Wars Silver Screen Edition and Empire Despecialised 2.0, to show my girlfriend Star Wars for the first time! She really enjoyed them all and we had fun spotting the reel changes, thanks to everyone for releasing these versions!!

Just finished watching this, great job! 😃 This will be my go to version from now on along with the SW SSE.

So I’ve pretty much fallen in love with the 35mm editions. The raw, originality of the prints can be felt.

A few questions for Harmy and others involved:

  1. Do you guys have the current resources (prints) to improve this release to or passed ‘silver screen’ quality?

  2. I’m very tempted to purchase this ROTJ print http://goo.gl/1aQPcR - Do you think it could prove helpful for a proper 1080/4k restoration?

I doubt I’d be able to get it properly scanned right off the bat, and if I’m alone on this, I doubt I’ll be able to do much restoration and the print would likely just be another collectors items for me. I would like to share resources to improve the public copies of the OOT.

  1. That being said, if I do purchase it, would anyone actually want scans to work with?

That’s essentially the same type of print used for Grindhouse, so save your money. The LPP currently scanned has a lot of potential for restoration, and has even been scanned in 4k for most if not all of it.

You misunderstand. I wouldn’t buy the print solely for this sites preservation projects. It would just be a neat thing to own.

I am aware this is the same type of print used in this grindhouse, I wouldn’t try combining it with an IB Tech and calling it original. I can only assume their copies aren’t perfect (nor the one on eBay). Combining the eBay one with the others already available could improve the overall quality.

What I am wondering is if it would be at all helpful to the current projects and whether or not I would receive help if I tried to restore/preserve it or even combine it with current releases (i.e. cleaning, swap scans, etc.)
