Harmy's RETURN OF THE JEDI Despecialized Edition HD - V3.1
Time

Yoda-San is exactly right -- Alderaan94's request is sad.  Let's not forget that this is, of course, Lucas's plan:

The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition]

Downloading the copy to your hard disk or buying it on DVD is both buying physical copy. At no point it becomes a non-physical copy.

I'm pretty sure I'm feeding a troll here -- I don't think that this guy is really this obtuse.  Anyway, the term is clearly defined in the Digital Copy wiki.  A file on your hard drive is NOT a physical copy, as the term is understood:

Digital Copy is a commercially distributed computer file containing a media product such as a film or music album. The term contrasts this computer file with the physical copy(typically a DVD or Blu-ray Disc) with which the Digital Copy is usually offered as part of a bundle

The latest update I got on this for Reel 3 was:

"In other news, Reel 3 just past the 80% done mark. Approx. 6300 frames left."

Hopefully, we will have some previews of it.

That still leaves Parts of Reels 1, 6 to do along with some of Reel 4.

 That's reely good news!  Thanks for the update.

We have been previewing the new Fuji print. Though slightly dirty on the headers and tails parts, the rest looks fairly clean.

It will possible to use this as a good color reference going forward for future versions. So less guessing on what the colors will look like.

A full review will be forthcoming.

 Fantastic!  Do you have a way to clean the physical film?
