I for one hope disc 4 is a 4K recreation of the 1997 pan-and-scan vhs. We need to preserve these versions for posterity!

Like before?

I just emailed their customer service line.

If course we want to know about mark ! Assumed you would tell us if you could!

I was going to ask the same thing. 😃

It’s like we’re finishing each others’ …

How does one become a voice-over artist? Were you an actor before? Or did someone just hear you speak and say “she’s got the right kind of voice”? Just curious

Congrats! Is that your voice in the trailer?

Having recently seen the Apollo 11 documentary, this looks like a good companion piece. I wonder if that IMAX dome I’ve been to in San Jose to see the new SW films in 70mm would get this?

Yup, that’s me! Thanks!

Wow, you you sound just like John Kennedy! 😛

I contacted them out of curiosity. Not that I could go. All DCP, all SE

If the next home video release of the Star Wars Trilogy looks as good and is as true to source as the Mary Poppins Blu-Ray, that would be quite the coup indeed! I would pay a pretty penny for that!

That’s what he’s saying - disc 1 would be the SE in 4K, disc 2 the SE in 1080p, disc 3 the OT in 1080p, and disc 4 is extras (in 1080p). The standard BR release would just drop the 4K disc.

Exactly, which would once again be giving the two versions unequal treatment (both versions get 1080p but only the SE gets released on UHD).

I don’t think the GOUT was malicious. It was just lazy. It would be different if they released the OUT now. They’ve got all the elements scanned ready to go if they ever want to release it, and there’s not an existing HD master of the OUT they can just dump on Blu-Ray.

Not saying they will release, just if they do, I suspect they’ll do it right.

And with a 100 GB BD, seemless branching in 4K is totally doable.

If—IF—the OUT is coming, I don’t see them doing that. We’ve heard about how they’ve been scanning all the old elements in. They’d have no excuse, whereas with the GOUT they avoided a lot of effort by putting out the LD master. They’ll have to make a new transfer for Blu, so 4k won’t be any more work.

You can put two cuts on the same disc easily, especially considering 4K discs are usually feature film only.

Hell, Close Encounters 4K is three cuts with seemless branching.

Except the plural of Skywalker is Skywalkers.

So Sure are you?

Could be Skywalki

The issue with TLJ is the plural of Jedi is Jedi.

Or Skywalkeese

All I’m saying is there is no reason Celebration is the only way they will release news about the impending 4K release of Star Wars. It could be Celebration, it could be May 4th, it could be some random Thursday afternoon in July. No need to pin your hopes/fears on just this week 😃

Fingers crossed… we’ll know for sure come Monday.

How so? Why is that the deadline?

He also said article he links to in that story that he doesn’t expect the OUT.

LordZerome1080 said:

Let’s hope that article comes true.

Meh. It says nothing about whether the OUT will be made available.

Theatrical.

Do you recommend one over the other? I already felt it was slow in places. And Cameron’s extended Aliens puts me to sleep.

Except the plural of Skywalker is Skywalkers.

Don’t know.

It ended with

him being brought into the ship then the ship surfacing.

Can you confirm yes/no without spoiling the other one?

The saga titles haven’t sounded Star Warsy to me since The Force Awakens … The Last Jedi is derivative of Return of the Jedi

So ROTJ isn’t “Star Warsy” either?

The Rise of Skywalker refers to an individual

You mean like The Phantom Menace?

Are there ever rights issues with original art? Or does the studio always own the rights in perpetuity?

Just signed up for a Cinemax streaming trial to watch this. Enjoyed it, though not as blown away as I’d expected I’d be.

Image looked good for a Fire TV stream…

I’m not saying I think The Rise of Skywalker is a good title, but it’s way better than AOTC.

As far as the titles go, to my mind:

1. The Empire Strikes Back
2. The Last Jedi
3. Revenge of the Sith
4. The Force Awakens
5. Solo
6. Return of the Jedi
7. Rogue One
8. The Phantom Menace
9. The Rise of Skywalker
10. A New Hope
11. Attack of the Clones

You forgot the best title… STAR WARS
