I guess no one here went to the marathon leading up to TFA last December to see which versions were being run?
My friend (who’s a projectionist) did. He says the DCP’s are sourced from the 2011 Blu’s, except for TPM, which was a 2D folddown of the 3D version. He also said they look like garbage, and this guy is ALL ABOUT “director’s intent”.
Every time a Drafthouse answers “what version” on Twitter, they say specifically “1997”. Knowing how crazy they are, I’m sure they got film prints, which intrigues me.
