I can finally rewatch Return of the Jedi without any embarassing CGI shenanigans (of which this particular movie is fuller than any other in the trilogy), i could never thank each and everyone that took part in this project enough.
May the force be with you all.
4K83 is superior. It’s a 35mm scan from film prints.

4K77 is superior.
Would rather wait for a 35mm film scan in 4K of TESB 1997 Special Edition compared to whatever this is.
You do that. Back in the mid-00’s this was as close as was possible to get.
Yup. The 35mm scan is looking mighty fine too compared to this outdated project from the mid-2000s.
It’s not outdated, it’s in 1080p. unless you think that “4K” is the definitive resolution.
It’s outdated. 35mm film scans of The Empire Strikes Back 1997 Special Edition, which are fine for 4K aka 4K97 V, aren’t outdated.
Since this is an older Mid-2000s project sourced from only okay home media, I doubt 4K would benefit from this because it’d be another choppy upscale. This is perfectly fine in 1080p.

Says the guy asking about LaserDisc preservations?
I’m not sure if you’re asking if I ever inquired about that or double checking. Proper punctuation helps.
Laserdisc preservation is fine since it’s from officially released media, and because it’s not some weird hybrid fan edit culled as though it’s some Frankenstein’s Monster project aka whatever-the-fuck this is.
To me, this falls on the pile of fan edits, not fan preservation.
OH SHIT, multi-quote in one post. AGAIN.

The Editdroid was near professional quality. The bonus discs were excellent.
I was a big fan of Dark Jedi’s preservations as well
Wonder if anyone has hoarded any of those at all, even possibly uploaded any anywhere.
Can I have the link for the audio? 😁
Why though?
I forgot this project even existed. I doubt this project is going forward.
This movie is one of the unintentional comedies ever made. Especially the second half where the one guy hits the propeller. BWONGGGGGGGGGGGGGG.
Nice, but not interested in this project. Unless if there are custom trailers which mixes this movie as a horror or comedy.

I AM SCARED! SO LOST! HELP ME FIND WHICH ONE IT IS!No updates, it sounds like.
Well, fuck. Amusing I was the last one posting there asking about updates in 2022.
Sorry if this has been brought up before, trying to find stuff in the 680 pages is difficult…
Lost a hard drive recently so I just redownloaded all the despecialized editions. Trying to save some space for now so I’m stripping out audio files I don’t care about, but the audio tracks don’t match up with the list here. For example, instead of track one being 5.1 and track two being stereo, both track one and two are showing as 5.1…
I don’t have a surround sound setup to see if this is just a weird mislabel/misreading from the software. Can anybody confirm what the audio tracks actually are?
Use MediaInfo.
Used to watch these two quite often back in the day on VHS. Then had the flipper DVD, DVD10 I believe, with each movie on one side. Recently was able to come across the D+ versions and it’s nice 1080p even though the compression was “weird”. Would have been better if it were 4K, but what can you do with “LEGENDS” material in live-action? Honestly wish these two movies were on 4K+BD and all needs to be done is have a LEGENDS banner.
So glad I only care about the BD25 Documentary discs and not the Despecialized Editions. 4K77, 4K80, and 4K83 is vastly superior since, OH SHIT, 35mm film scan instead of only DISCS and barely anything else. I’m not going to waste a BD50 on this, no siree.
Thank fuck this has subtitles though.
35mm scan of the Theatrical Cut in 1080p or 4K would be nice. No need for upscaling.
35mm scan project for both 1080p and 4K would be better than any upscaling effort.
Good. I’d rather a 35mm scan compared to an obsolete upscale.
You posted the same comment (at least) three times now. I get it, you want 35mm. You know what post to go to for that.

Do you know someone with a print?
Check eBay, not me. Be wary of shady as fuck sellers, of course.
WHAT ABOUT, a 35mm film scan instead of upconversions?
If I remember correctly, at the time the GOUT was released it was agreed that there was very little virtue in LaserDisc conversions because the GOUT was the best presentation of that master on video. There was Project XO which was canceled shortly after, which at the time was attempting to mine as much detail as possible from the LaserDiscs by using the best LaserDisc player in the world and doing fancy things to squeeze every drop out of it. With the GOUT, that put an end to all such things.
That said, I also recall the EditDroid version being regarded highly. As far as bonus material, there’d be some LaserDisc-specific content to compile, sure.
Yup. I have no idea if it’d be even worth it to make preservations of specifically the 1989/1990, 1993, and 1995 Laserdiscs to DVD at all because of the 2006 Limited Edition DVDs aka “GOUT”. Even though it could be different, possibly with better bitrate and compression? Not sure but I do have the LD bonus features of those three which someone else made onto DVDs.
No clue if I ought to wait for someone to scan 35mm prints, maybe someone already did, of the 1997 Special Editions. If someone already has those bonus features from the Special Edition Laserdiscs to DVD, then that’s already done and done.
I remember Project X0 but it still should have happened with the specific Laserdiscs to DVD. No heavy clean-up, just MPEG2 onto dual layered DVDs.
Paramount will probably release a 4k eventually. Likely a dnr mess but u never know. They did a fine job with ferris bueller 4k .
Speaking of ng3 that’s the only one that hasn’t got a laserdisc treatment yet .
FERRIS BUELLER’S DAY OFF isn’t on 4K UHD! MADNESS!
Digital and Streaming don’t fucking count either.I beg to differ.
I would hope not.

NAKED GUN, NAKED GUN 2½, and NAKED GUN 33⅓ would be great to 35mm scans. In 1080p AND 4K.Are you saying you’d be willing to update the naked gun trilogy if you could find way to gain access to the film prints etc.?
Fuck no.
IVE MADE ANDOR INTO A MOVIE OF SORTS CUT OUT THE BORING EMPIRE DRIVELL AND JUST KEPT TO ADULT ANDOR NO LORDS OF THE FLYS WITHOUT SUBTITLES FLASH BACKS JUST STICK TO THE STORY OF ANDOR AS A MAN
BIG PASS FROM ME. Kill your cruise control.
Absolutely fucking loved this STAR WARS show and can’t wait for Season 2. Finished the series one day after the last episode was originally on. Usually will wait to watch a few STAR WARS episodes in one go but this is one of them I was watching weekly. Glorious 4K HDR and it fits right in with the OT and of course ROGUE ONE. Glad this was 12 episodes instead of 6.
