I'm more experienced in sound editing (not great but better than most) and this kinda thing always intrigued me...

Anyways, I have a bit of rumor I heard from a fairly reliable source concerning the Holiday Special - apparently Australia's FoxTel (sp?) station had entered into talks with LucasFilms to promote a one-off 30th anniversary airing of the Holiday Special for next year, with the possibility of a new George Lucas chat about the history of the special afterwards.

I'm not really too sure about the truth behind this but as I said the person I heard this from is usually pretty knowledgeable about the Holiday Special

As for if it will be remastered/cleaned up? Can't say, but I'm sure George still has the original negative up there at Skywalker Ranch in the vault

2 hours of film is more like 180000 frames.

Video noise is very different from grain. Film grain is what the actual film is composed of, video noise is basically interference caused by the imaging sensors and is those tiny tiny red blue and green dots you see mixed in the image. Thats not part of the film, thats created by the digital capture and its quite heavy on these scans.

Hi, Arnie.

Hate to be a pain, but if you could PM me the link I'd really appreciate it.

Anyone know if there's scans of the ESB and ROTJ sets floating around anywhere?

Well if it's completely animated then I'll go to see it for that fact. At least when everything's animated you don't have to endure the stark contrast of a real body and a fake one in the same movie (like a CGI Yoda talking to Obiwan).
That's true!

I don't see why people are so up in arms about this. The source material isn't that great or thought provoking to begin with. Beowulf himself is an incredible Gary Stu and constantly veers off into random moralizing while not living by the morals himself.

Its 100% CGI, like Final Fantasy. It has Angelina Jolie in it but its a CG Angelina Jolie. Dumb I guess but you know people come to see celebrities so they retained all the performers likenesses.

The FBI does handle federal crimes which occur in the United States, however, many times those crimes may be perpetrated from outside the U.S. and they have to go worldwide to coduct the investigation. There are FBI agents in Afganistan and Iraq working conjointly with other sections to capture terrorists. There are also agents in United States who specialize in priracy and domestic crimes who do that around the clock.

That's great if you're going up against a shotgun. Unfortunately, most of the time, helmets, and masks, are really only good for protection against debris. That mask probably won't stop an AK-47 round or shrapnel from an IED. And, as Chaltab said, you'll have a hit to your peripheral vision.

I'm totally for troops wearing these, I'd just hate for people to assume that this is going to fully protect them, when it clearly isn't.
