Erm... no.

I did it because this thread hasn't had a post a while and was sinking to the bottom of the page.

Dude, there are already plenty of various hardcore O-OT DVD releases around here.
I don't see anything wrong with those who want to, releasing their own versions that they modify.

Wow, this has incredible potential.

Faces set, transferred by professionalls with the best known LD player in the world, to a dual layered DVD.

Give it some good menus and chapter selections and damn, that would be the best Star Wars Trilogy DVD set Ever.

Are the SE LDs good enough quality to De-SE them? I think that may be a wiser choice, but then again I don't know.

One thing I'll never understand....

Why can't you take the high resolution of PAL, but play it at the normal speed like NTSC?

Well I've sent my email.

I'd be more than happy to type up a full review should I be the "winner". This set does sound intriguing.

PM Rikter with your adress.

He will send you both DVDs for a total of $13, shipping and everything.

And believe me, you'll be glad you did.

Allright then... um...

How about De-SEzing a decent '97 SE bootleg? The quality of that would be worth the editing involved, and the color would be fine.

I'd be interested in taking a look at anyone's efforts in this feild.

Granted, it will not look perfect. But I'd rather have original footage in lower quality where it's needed than crap footage in high quality.

I think the outstanding picture quality for the *majority* of the film would be worth it.

And even if it's not all that worth it, I'll still have my TR47s around.

PM me if you want.

EDIT:

Oh and yes, please use this principle when editing:
Precisely my idea as well, to use the 2004 version where possible, fall back on the 1997 version and use the 1993/1995 version only where necessary.

It'll be much better for 2004 changes.

I can already tell this movie is NOT going to be good.

The thign that was good about HHGTTG was the brilliant writing. It was so hilariouslly written that you couldn't help but laugh at everything in it.
You simply cannot transcribe it into a movie form.

I guess the deciding factor of whether I'll actually *see* it of not if the accents. If they don't have British accents, then I shalln't see it.

Hey if MagnoliaFan is still planning on doing an OT restoration of taking the DVDs and DE-SEing them, why not have the Pre-ANH be a part of that? Just a suggestion.

Hey Magfan, would you say it'd be wise to plan on buying (from Rikter or who-ever) Dual-layered versions of BOTF and the then-updated TCW along with your EPIII edit when it comes time to purchase it in 2005-6 ish?

Is it just me, or are the transfers of BOTF and TCW that Rikter is distributing have the brightness a bit high?
I find myself darkening the picture when I watch them.
Not trying to complain, just wondering.
