I wouldn't say that having Leia kiss Luke was saving Star Wars.

Any ideas how she helped on the sequels?

Oh yeah, that pic. Great job.

Where's the jpg?

I like the soundtracks of SW, Blade Runner (well, not all from it), Bond films (I agree on GoldenEye, OK movie but not a fan of the score), Batman films, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Terminator, Terminator 2, The Lion King, Bad Boys (1995), Speed and The Matrix, and from TV I like the score of Miami Vice's last season, it's a shame they haven't released any of it.

Is there a backup of the X0 Project website somewhere? Or at least the screen caps?

Try Wayback machine, it doesn't have pics though.

Did anyone make any disc art yet?

Mine is in the cover forum.

I have already stated it is probably to much cleanup(this was my first time with this filter) but the grain\noise HAS to be lessened quit a bit on this version, when blowing it up it really screws up some scenes, like Tantive IV hallways, space shots, and especially the sky on the outside on Tatooine shots

Noise yes, grain no (my opinion). These shots you mentioned are "supposed" to be grainy by their nature, that's how they were in the original film, too. You can see it here (from 70 mm film):

Tantive and Tatooine scenes are from grainy to VERY grainy but scenes shot in studio are not. Of course opinions may vary but I'd suggest leaving the grain there as it was in the original film, IF these are trying to match the original. :)

First period I say after a particuarly long series of dry hacks, "Sorry I sound like General Greivous."

Nothing. No reaction. Blank stares.

That would probably be my expression, too, plus shame which you wouldn't be able to see. LOL

I forgot to mention - I noticed the audio (the movie audio) went slightly out-of-sync in places. Did anyone else notice this or was it just me? 

Oh yeah, I wasn't sure if the burning process did something weird or not (it gave me warnings) but at the end audio was starting to get out of sync to the point it got very distracting.

Looking good!

I think you can never get a satisfying result for the whole film with one settings. It needs color correction scene by scene. Tatooine shots look okay there, but the others have a weird green hue on whites, like on Leia's dress. After those Technicolor photos everything seems to be more green. :P Be careful that you won't overdo it.

I called Darth Vader Lord Vader, I didn't know that lord meant and thought it was his name. My mom corrected me and it took a little time to get used to Darth, LOL.

In Rebel Assault II, there was TIE Phantom which had a little elevator that came out from the bottom and lift the pilot(s) into the cockpit.

LOL, that does not look right, if at all possible you might want to change that, looks really strange that way.

It looks a little funny, I know, but it doesn't bother me. If it would be correctly then the superlaser would be right there where the hole is. The picture was like that in many promotional materials:

Why is the Death Star upside down on the Kenner Commercials disc label?

It's from Kenner's own material, I didn't do anything with it. Old school!

I think they're too yellow/greenish. You can see a green glow in the first pic around R2's blue stripes.

Just finished watching it, great work Jambe! :)

I agree with Moth3r's points, I had to freeze the frame during the Chief Bast scene. The only other thing that bugged me a little is cropping 4:3 footage to widescreen but I do understand the reason behind it, that's just a petpeeve of mine, LOL.

Now to watch the rest of the trilogy, I've only seen BE twice and RTJ once. Again, excellent work!

Check out this article I caught in the newspaper this morning.

Now that you mention it, I think I saw SWB mentioned in a newspaper, too. I guess it was last year mentioning that the first part was up since it wasn't completed at the time.

Updated Kenner cover and added disc label.

This will probably be it for awhile for my English covers.

Here's the toy commercials, maybe for extras? http://www.starwars.com/vault/collecting/droids_ewoks_25th_anniversary/index.html

I'm here because the original films are treated badly and it seems that this is the only place for people like me who like their stuff original. Also I'm a collector who likes all kinds of old SW things, like videos and nostalgic merchandise from the time when I wasn't even born, so I'm liking the old stuff ie. Puggo's preservations and Jambe's documentarys. I'm not interested in fan edits at all, haven't watched even one of those.

I also like the fact that this is possibly the least moderated forum and still being possibly the smartest forum I've visited. Though a little moderation once in a while wouldn't hurt since there's all kind of crap appear into threads from time to time and some people fill all threads with useless posts...

 I figured it had small amounts in its atmosphere, and that's why they needed to carefully harvest it all the time.

That always seemed believable to me.  After all, they only harvest once a season.

At least there are a lot of clouds on Tatooine, maybe too much for a desert planet... Like when 3PO is leaving R2 and in the Sarlacc battle.

This will be even harder to find, but I need an uncropped version of this picture. It is this exact picture, only it is a full body shot. It doesn't need to be terribly big, just not terribly small.

There isn't such thing, that's only a face shot when he's sitting, that image has been cropped from the sides, though.

You sure?, Because I am looking right at it on my old VHS of ROTJ.

Just saw the cover on Video Collector's site.

The pic has been edited combining two pictures, the close-up and a photo where he's coming off the shuttle.

I'm officially interested.

Who's making the color correction on these? Fritz? pittrek? I can PM links for reference regarding it.
