Plus he survived a nuclear explosion in a fridge... he can take a silly plane crash.

plus there just isn't a broad-base consumer delivery option for 4K
Well, a 4K restoration doesn't necessarily demand a 4K release. Future-proofing is the reason here, and a Blu-ray release of a 4K restoration could look stunning.

Selective color isn't in AE
It is since CS5.
Yeah, even though both Vimeo and YouTube claim to support 25fps, it's always kinda iffy ;)

Besides, there is something wrong with the compression, because the pans are really weird.
Where exactly did you see those problems? The only thing I can think of right now are the crane-shots in the outdoor scenes, because for those we had to use an (inferior) HDV cam.
You might want to download the full-quality MKV (you can find the link in the video description) to check if the problem is still there.
Hey everybody,
I’d like to share a project a couple of friends and I worked on, an Indy-fanfilm called “Revenge of Kali”. It’s a 5 minute short we’ve produced for a German Indiana Jones fan meetup we held last year:
http://vimeo.com/thavis/revengeofkali
Audio editing is the main piece of work here, as I'd like to include several German audio tracks, like with SW ;)
But right now my life got rather busy, so that will have to wait.
Too bad that denoising such a dirty source always results in those wobbly edges. I've had the same problem with some shots from the 35mm trailers.

The droid being revealed to be a real live prop doesn't surprise me. It certainly did not look like bad CGI to me.
Just because they had a real prop of the droid on set, the trailer shot could still use a CGI version of it. And to me it still looks like that... albeit not like "bad" CGI.
Yeah, it has.
Also: "Empire of Dreams" is just an upscale with fixed German subtitles, so the DVD version is clearly better.
That's, of course, 5 of 24... it's an Advent calender!
I'm pretty sure he's already used the 2004 versions. Also I doubt he will update SW again, unless it's via more 35mm material.
Edit: I've checked against that guide, and the PT movies are the Blu-ray versions as well. No surprises here.
A little heads up, since the channel is now live:
SW is the 2004 version, while TESB and ROTJ are the Blu-ray versions. All in 1080p.
Are there any quick ways to identify which versions of the PT movies are shown?
I'll try to get my colleague to record "Empire of Dreams" on the weekend. For starters it's the 151 minute version (at PAL speed), not the shortened version. Here's hoping it's in HD without burnt in subs.

Love the look of it... really OT and McQuarrie-like. And the Falcon... the Falcon!

What? Those are miniatures you can buy in a store for a tabletop game.
I'm pretty sure he's referring to the Nebulon B Frigate, which is custom made. But you're right, the rest of the ships are official releases, which only confirms the quality of the frigate, since it doesn't stick out as fan made.

I don't mind it except... Why not "The Force Awakened"... Such a small change, same basic meaning, but sounds like 10x cooler...
Because the meaning would actually be different. "Awakens" suggests that the movie actually shows the beginning and the process of the "awakening", wheras "Awakened" suggests it's already awake.
I've added download links for the covers to the opening post.

Which frog thing?
The one snagging a bug in front of Jabba's palace ;)
So I guess "CG Puppets on Digital Media" would have been the better title.
Although, if I remember correctly, the German version oft EOD is shorter than the original. But it has German voice-over, no subtitles.

Here's an important question: Are there any HDMI-capable cappers located in Germany who plan to take this on?
More like Dreambox-capable capper ;) Yeah, my colleague will probably be able to cap this stuff for me.
But what exactly do you expect? The movies themselves will most likely just be the Blu-ray versions anyway.
The only thing worth salvaging from this is hopefully an HD version of "Empire of Dreams".

the PAL gout slowed down to NTCS speed is the official frame count
BTW, even if the PAL GOUT isn't slowed down, the frame count is still the same ;)

Download of 2.5 isn't finished yet but I noticed a comment on the 1st post, that the german dub is out of sync and that there is a correct version of it somewhere but I can't find any link.
If you're looking for a complete German version, you might as well download this: http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/Krieg-der-Sterne-Despecialized-Edition-25-German/topic/15914/
