You know, the ones with Luke and Biggs on Tatooine and Luke’s original intro? It would be nice to see those cleaned up and reinserted into the movie.
Info Wanted: Has anyone ever tried restoring the Episode IV deleted scenes?

The Lost Scenes, ripped from the "Behind the Magic" CD-ROM, re-sized and cleaned-up somewhat.
My outlook on life - we’re all on the Hindenburg anyway…no point fighting over the window seat.

There was no clean-up involved in this disc - the video was a straight conversion of the original CD-ROM material.

I attempted the first scene, but to be honest, my results were far from satisfactory so I abandoned the project. Comparison.
Is this restoration what JD was planning to use in Star Wars Begins?

i'm making a fanedit, that covers practically every version of star wars
from the vinyl/8mm/vhs/laserdisc/dvd/se/720p/1080p versions....and
it will inlclude all the deleted scenes...however, i'm not sure how much
they will be restored...

quoting boba feta:
That looks great to me. You'll never be able to get it looking perfect enough to reinsert into the film because the source material is at such a low resolution and bitrate but that is certainly far better than the original.

Is Sluggo the one who originally added an edit of the audio of the radio drama over the treadwell scene as seen on t'bones star wars universe and deleted magic?
Yes, that was me. It might have been done back in '96 or so. The file still might be at T'bone's SW Universe. For Deleted Magic, OCPMovie redid the audio based on what I (to be honest, I did the audio while watching the clip off of a VHS capture of the CD-ROM; my friend FryGuy spliced it up to the video for me.) had put together.

What... my account is working? [lil ani] Yipee! [/lil' ani]
Anyway, I would like to be able one day to have a Star Wars DVD running and be able to just go into the menu and select "watch with deleted scenes inserted" option.
It'd just be cool to me to be able to sit and watch the movie and when it came to a point in the movie where the Deleted Scene would have occured (according to the screenplay) it would automatically play it. I don't care if it's "jarring" or the quality is bad... I just want to watch it that way.
Some people have suggested that I create my own Star Wars fan edit just for that purpose, but I'm lazy. It's just too much work for me to do it. I figure someone who is already doing a fan edit would have no problem making a branching version. It'd be like what they did with the X-Men dvd... you could watch it with or without the deleted scenes, even though the deleted scenes had unfinished SFX and were of poorer quality than the rest of the film. Heck, people did the same thing for the Episode III deleted scenes (the SFX in that "death of Shaak Ti/fuel tanks" scene looked like crap! there were visible green screens and safety wires too).
Restoring an entire 2 hour film obviously is a ton of work. These deleted scenes amount to just a few minutes in total. Even though they look really bad, I'm sure it'd be easier to restore them than to restore an entire movie. Somebody could even colorize the alternate cantina footage if they wanted to. That'd be sweet!

I always thought it would be cool to have a Star Wars DVD/Blu-Ray where you could turn SE elements on or off during the movie like subtitles. Press a button and the cg is there, press it again it's gone. You could even toggle through the newest version 2004, 97 ect.

The only way GL would go for that is if someone appealed to his ego and sold it to him as a "before and after" mode - "Look, people can turn the FX on and off to see how much better SW is with the CG than without!"

why don't go over to the technical forums, and actually learn how to do it? instead of just blindly asking..
there's plenty of people/experts that will help you out..
i'm new here, and i've gotten a ton of help/rare versions/ideas ...
put some effort into it, instead of waiting around, expecting for someone to hand it to you on a silver platter..
didn't you read my post a bit higher, where i said i'm putting the scenes back into the movie, or was it too
hard to scroll up?

i like both versions.....but then, i also like computer graphics/effects/art etc....
both versions can exist....depending on what mood i'm in...i could
watch either one..it really doesn't make much of a difference which one you watch..

A guy named Lucas once tried restoring some Ep.IV deleted scenes and re-inserting them into the movie. Turned out very badly.

your sarcasm and irony are too strong for me...the force must be with you....ha ha..
seriously, not to rehash SE vs GOUT for the 10 millionth time...i didn't mind seeing the jabba scene (yeah, it looked funky, so what)..
but what was wrong with the biggs scene at the end?
and the long intro to mos eisley? or the new sandcrawler scenes?
like i said i've only seen the original <20 times, so the changes to the SE weren't as dramatic to me...

The Jabba scene would have been great IF THEY HAD REVERTED THE GREEDO SCENE TO ITS ORIGINAL DIALOGUE.
With the removal of the Jabba scene, they added a line RIPPED DIRECTLY FROM THE JABBA SCENE into the Greedo scene, and altered Greedo's subtitle dialogue to cover the bases that were left open with the removal of said scene. But when they added the Jabba scene back in ... they kept the Greedo scene's dialogue the same, which made the Jabba scene highly redundant.
The Biggs scene is good, except the wipe that cut the "father" reference is a bit jarring and shortens the scene too much.
Long intro to Mos Eisley wasn't really necessary, but I could have lived with it if the slapstick humor hadn't been there.
What new sandcrawler scenes are we talking about here? The small amount of new FX? Not bad IMO.

Hey, what do you think about this ?
