Before I heap general praise on it, I'd like to point out four (very) minor problems with the disc.
Now, I'm not sure if some of these were cause by my viewing set up - streaming the disc over my LAN to a modified PAL Xbox running XBMC - or the disc itself, but here they are.
1) There's a slight horizontal wobble pressent. This is most noticable on the opening and closing credits.
2) Two lip-synch issues ("This station is now the ultimate power..." and "I have the death penalty on...") I'd need to check my original tapes to see if these were present on the source material.
3) No "Close the blast doors! Close the blast doors!". I realise there's some debate around if this was originally in the mix - I beleive that it was.
4) Missing scene! I'm positive there was a scene when Vader told two TIE Fighter Pilots "A gorup of fighters have broken off from the main group - come with me". Am I imagining this scene?
Other than that... wow! Total Star Wars Geek heaven. I was initially worried about the non-anamporphic nature of the disc, but using the zoom mode on my DVD player and TV didn't noticably reduce the picture quality. Sound and picture were both beautiful.
Brilliant.
