About a week ago Star Wars changed their Facebook cover photo. Colors are quite different from the Blu Ray, though I’m certainly not experienced enough to tell if they’re accurate to OUT grading, but to my eye this also looks ‘off’.
versus blu ray:
Edit: There also appears to be a lot more detail in the above picture. Zoom in the cockpits. Especially in the far fighter, the pilot is practically indistinguishable in the dark blu-ray picture but clear as day in the top photo.
I would put this in my sig if I weren’t so lazy.
OUT confirmed for 2016

Off topic.
Seriously though, I am curious where that image came from, regardless of whether or not the OUT is on its way. Why use images from a source other than the official blu ray?

Perhaps because the social media dude thought it looked like shit.

Usually I would say not a chance to things like that, but given that it is Star Wars I imagine the “social media dude” is a huge fan, rather than a bored intern who could not possibly care any less about his job. Where did he get the source though, and what the heck is it?
I just emailed Bob Iger. I will post his reply when it comes!

Hey everyone,
So I just downloaded the AVCHD files of the Despecialized Editions. How would I go about burning them onto DVDs?
I’d really appreciate the help.

A cropped version of the Facebook image is also used in the header of the SW database page for the X-Wing, along with this SE shot which appears to also be color-corrected:

We’d really appreciate you posting in a more appropriate thread.

Or Googleing “how to burn AVCHD to a DVD on my Mac/PC”

Changed again. This scene is not this blue on the Blu-Ray, am I right? Ackbar looks so vibrantly RED on the Blu-Rays.

So what are you saying the source is on that one? The recent digital release?
It’s the new OUT blu ray release. It hasn’t been officially released yet, but it’s on Myspleen.

I took it from Star Wars’ original (correction: official) Facebook. Don’t know where they took the frame from.

Ah okay, then. Best not to read much into promotional materials. They can do anything they want with the color timing if it’s not how it’s going to look in a release of the film.

Thats when one of the flashes are going off
I know you guys probably think I’m a little nuts for reading too much into these things by now, but this one is f***ing Greedo!
New facebook cover photo:
Vs. Blu-Ray
Edit: and at this point, why else market Greedo except to piss off a large chunk of your fans, which would be foolish and petty. They already have a bunch of angry “Han shot first” comments.

Seriously though, if Verta has a Greedo shot available, someone should do a comparison.

I already included that bit where you guys probably think I’m crazy :p

I don’t think that scene is in any of his demos.

Turns out the picture is a new addition to Starwars.com too.
current Greedo ‘bio’ page: http://www.starwars.com/databank/greedo

They probably just wanted to make sure greedo was visible to people who didn’t have their monitors/phones set excessively bright. Otherwise you might not be able to see the train wreck that is the blu-ray still.
Even so, why make Greedo your cover photo unless you have something up your sleeve? The only people who give a rat’s ass about Greedo as a character are members of this site.

The difference is – quite literally – like night and day.
