Star Wars DVD Covers

Here's something I've been making Puggo's Super8. Does anyone know what font was used for credits in SW posters (Style A, C, half sheet...)? msycamore? :P And if anyone has a high res version of the double bill, let me know.

Edit: actually I think I'm going to use UK quad for SW, too, I completely forgot I had those LOL. I'm not a fan of the half sheet.

Is there even a separate 70mm mix for ROTJ? I'd say that just recreating the original mix in 5.1 would do it so then we would only miss TESB 70mm mix in 5.1.

Yes, there is. According to album editing and assembly supervisor, Michael Matessino:

Unlike Empire, there was only one difference between the 35mm and 70mm versions of Jedi: the 70mm version used the "Main Title" from Empire (referring to the music recording, not the visuals), but no one has been able to determine why.

That's interesting. Wouldn't be that hard, though, compared to Empire. :P

If there were actual recordings of their 70mm versions available, I would of course do my best to recreate them as well, but until that time I decided to go with my personal preference for how they should sound.

As for SOTME, I found it interesting from a historical perspective; what with being the potential sequel and all.  But ultimately I didn't care for the story.  It felt too "late 70's/early 80's fantasy cartoon"-ish to me, if that makes any sense.  It's been a few years since I've read it, though, and I only have vague, generalized memories from it.  I do remember thinking some parts were cool though.  Maybe I should give it another go sometime...

Same here. I should read it again. I liked it, though, but the whole plot seems a little weird and of course it doesn't have anything to do with later stuff. But it was entertaining and a good read.

I've also read SW and it's basically the early SW script with deleted scenes before they were deleted. Nothing special, to me at least.

I'm loving the teamwork going on here!
It takes a team to wrap our minds around all of the different versions. I just can't believe we're the first to notice the "there one version, gone the next" scanlines. Not having scan lines in one version I can kind of understand.

This I don't. The scanlines are going in the complete opposite direction!

 

Also the 2004 shot seems to be zoomed out, didn't find that on your descriptions. Weird.

Discussion about other movies?
Time

I was wondering if anyone else would be interested in talking about other movies than SW in general, like new BD releases and how they compare previous releases and possible revisionism in them, up-coming movies etc. There are some threads in Off Topic section but that's full of other crap, too. So I'm suggesting a new forum for that if there's interest...
