huh, Spanish?  Sounds good.  We could always tack on the SE laserdisc 5.1 soundtrack, albeit with alterations to match the OT.

It's very exciting to see these scans.  My first impression is that the color is very good, but that the focus is poor.  Since these images were intended to be blown up on a big screen, I have to assume that the focus issue is not on the film or it would look awful at full projected size.  Is there a way to manually focus the scanner?

Yes, indeedy. That's looking a lot better.

I can see stray hairs. :-D

Is that makeup on her collar?

Doesn't seem to be perfect focus, but that's a whole bunch of improvement. Might be at the limit of the scanner. Or they might've done something to soften the focus on Leia, so another subject might be better.

Curious... the crane shot of the XWing appeared to have some fierce sensor noise, in the dark areas, but I don't see any in the rest.

Did you use the dust removal software on this shot? Or any filtering? I'd like to see one without that stuff, and without resizing, now that you've got better focus. Preferably that X-Wing shot I mentioned. It's easier to judge, with hard-edged technology, that has flat areas and stuff.

Still some focusing issues, but they're getting better!  R2D2 looked pretty darn good.

As much as I'm enjoying these, I'm becoming afraid myself about this project getting shut down with some sort of legal action.  It could even affect the boards themselves.  Someone earlier suggested "going dark", retreating to some sort of PM or email chain.  It might not be a bad idea for some sort of agreed-upon defensive action, like the mods shutting down and removing these threads and -1 setting up a mailing list or pw-protected website.  I'd hate to see all your efforts get the wrong kind of attention.

Wow i never noticed before negative one's scans just how much the gout cuts off the sides of the image.

Did this happen back in the day when they made a letterbox transfer to conform to 4:3 tv sets?

Another reason why Lucas needs to do a New transfer of the oot and the gout is not going to cut it i'm affraid.
