You could have the DS2 being built, but instead right above Coruscant and have Vader at the opening travel on his shuttle to Coruscant instead of DS2.

You could take elements of nighttime Coruscant views from the PT, of which there are several, and comp them into scenes outside The Emperor's throne room windows.


I've have been wondering about this too. That would be so cool if they could also.

I'm not a Lucas basher but i may be becoming a Lucasfilm basher. This release was going so well, everything would have been so easy to set right--and it almost feels like they went out of their way to screw us. I just dont get it. This shocked me more than the actual release that they would be released because i figured Lucasfilm would put out something respectable. I guess I was wrong.


Ya really there wasting money just to make it shittier. They have the friggin 35mm film prints from 1993 but they just have to be difficult and use a laserdisc master.

O ya cuz isn't the PT boxset going to out this year according to rumor. And then the mega box set with a shit load of changes for all the film in 2007.

guys, read the box art, it says WIDESCREEN at the top of all three of them. This story has got to be wrong. I don't read the bits that much so I won't trust them on this one. Remember, Lucas doesn't want these versions to out-sell his shiny SE. I think he had someone lie to the bits knowing that word would get out before the Sept. release. He's playing with our heads, just wait it out and see. Don't count your chickenss before they hatch.


Good point.

DarthFirst also "confirmed" they are new transfers from the 1993 print. So we are a stalemate.

As far as official info, it would seem to imply they are as DarthFirst has claimed.

I dont believe this Digital Bits rumor--for now at least.


Neither am I. I mean everyone gets wrong sources sometimes.

Would it be that hard to transfer them to another disc, and make them anamorphic without loosing quality? If so... I guess these "awesome new DVDs" will be nothing more than new source material to work from.


Thats what I was thinking.
