It certainly isn't any more nitpicky than fixing the speed of the receding "STAR WARS" at the beginning, which has already been done.
Of course, if adywan doesn't do anything to the crawl I doubt it will ruin the movie for anyone. But with all the other stuff that's being tinkered with, why not fix that as well?

But seriously, I think the only way Hayden at the end of ROTJ would have worked is if they would have had him replace Shaw in the unmasking scene too. Two actors playing the same character within the same 10 minutes just doesn't sit well with me.

I have some of the dogfight footage on my Malaysian bootleg ROTJ DVD. (which also has "Backstroke of the West" style subtitles

)
It's not much, but if anyone wants it for such a project I'll gladly send it.

Hey, quick question. Has there been a lot of tinkering with the length of shots? Because when this is finished it would be cool to splice in the commentary track from the 2004 DVD, then it would be the only ANH DVD I would need.

Am I the only one that found the overdubbed voice hilarious in it's out-of-place...ness? (which I'm assuming was the point)

Maybe I should have thrown in one or two of these little guys

just to let you know I wasn't trying to be a jerk.

I can't wait till BluRay or HD-DVD are cheap enough for trash like me to afford.

(those are interesting MP3's by the way, they made me want to dance the night away)

I'm satisfied enough with them.
They look lovely on my normal sized (25 inch) TV, much better than the laserdisc transfers I had before as far as overall detail.

The only problem I have is when viewed on my mom's huge bigscreen TV, some of the the Tatooine scenes in ANH and Hoth scenes in ESB have a distracting amount of what I'm assuming is film grain.

I never expected them to be perfect, but I was hoping for a cleaner transfer from a better source (and making them anamorphic wouldn't have hurt either)

Sorry. Guess I'll have to do my own version of this with my album. Uncompressed or nothing.

In that case, I hope you don't own any DVD's

I'm looking forward to seeing this, although the only thing that really bothers me on the 2004 DVD's is the lightsabers. Those should have just been completely redone by ILM back in '97. If I could just have my 2004 DVD's with fixed lightsabers, I'd be perfectly happy.

As for the official GOUT DVD's from 2006, they look fine on my 25 inch TV, but on my mom's huge widescreen TV the visual noise in the Tatooine and Hoth scenes stands out like a sore loser.
