Couldn’t you potentially take every laserdisc source, align them, then do a motion based average the same way Althor does to average his laserdisc captures? You could even pad and align Pan and Scan versions using a transparent background (so that the padding isn’t taken into account in the average). Considering the number of Star Wars laserdiscs, this easily provides 10+ sources to combine for what should be at minimum the equivalent of the GOUT 77 crawl.

I know I’m a few days behind on this, but I did this a couple of years ago. The results are ok, but they are not quite up to the level of the GOUT. It’s definitely an improvement over a single disc source, but it’s still coming from laserdisc. Here’s a preview of it:
