WHAT IS REMASTER EDITION?
Remaster Edition is our fan-edit of Star Wars Original Trilogy (Prequel Trilogy Remaster Edition coming sooner or later)
Remaster Edition V1.0 used mostly the teathrical versions. But I used a 35mm 720p film print as a template. So few days ago, I used the Special Editions as templates and did the changes.
SOURCES
Disney+ 4K Edition
2011 Blu-ray Edition
Return of the Jedi fanedit by IlFanEditore
2006 Bonus DVD “GOUT”
2020 Blu-ray Edition
1997 Special Edition (outdated, color correction by me)
CHANGES
All movies
End credits restored
“A News Corporation Company” text removed from 20th Century Fox intro (The Empire Strikes Back doesn’t include the 20th Century Fox intro)
A long time ago, in a galaxy far far away… has been updated by a new font
Color changes
A New Hope
Stormtroopers might ask for reinforcements
Beru’s lines have been restored like they were on the teathrical versions
Sunset scene is now the Disney+ version
Removed the issue of “Luke Skywalker ghost”
Death Star explosion updated
Added sun when the X-wings come from the Rebel base on Yavin 4.
Yavin Prime updated
Death Star colors updated
Cut some of Luke Skywalker’s moves
Greedo scene updated by making the explosion shorter and restoring “Ma klounkee”
Lightspeed effect updated
Because the Millennium Falcon Luke training is from 2011 Blu-ray, the lightsaber is white (Yes, white since I updated the colors and the green effect is gone)
Silent lines have been made louder
The Empire Strikes Back
Color timing errors on snow have been fixed (the snow is back to be white)
Wampa arm issue fixed
Han Solo’s shadow “vest” restored
Restored Luke’s scream when he falls from the platform where he fought Darth Vader
(actually The Emperor’s scream. It was there in 1997 Special Edition but was muted in 2004 DVD)
Again, like in Remaster Edition v1.0, Luke’s line “Now all I gotta do is find Yoda… if he even exists” has been edited by muting “if he even exists” because Mark Hamill didn’t say that and Luke’s lips are not moving.
Original wampa scene restored with color fixes
Cave Vader lightsaber updated
R2-D2 beeps are now louder
Some of Yoda’s lines muted
Return of the Jedi
Movie name changed to The Return of Skywalker (This is because many people think the title is about Luke Skywalker, but it’s only about Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader)
Opening crawl updated
Darth Vader’s eyebrows removed
Darth Vader’s “NOO!” replaced with Revenge of the Sith “NOOO!”
Lapti Nek restored (with Special Edition picture)
Jabba’s palace door is again changed to look bigger
The opening scene updated (Actually I did not do the changes, they were borrowed from IlFanEditore’s fan-edit)
Celebration in other planets are on the movie but the Ewok party is original footage (Music is gone, replaced with The Phantom Menace’s ending scene music and a victory song)
Added some footage from Rogue One to battle of Endor
Force lightning colors are back to be like they were on 2006 Bonus DVD (the scene is from Disney+ Edition)
Explosions now include very bright light
Death Star now tries to fire before it is destroyed
