Puggo - Jar Jar's Yoda

The highest resolution that the assessors could still discern in the sharpest part of the screen(not neccassirily it's center) in the most performing movie theater was about 875 Lines/PH

 

I could see that, for the "most performing movie theater".  I'm not interested in the quality of the "most performing movie theater".  That's irrelevant for high quality film restoration.  A proper restoration would try to achieve the quality of the highest quality projection, such as in a high end 70mm theater with a brand new print.  Do your studies indicate the resolution of high quality 70mm projections of brand new prints?

Okay, then just for you I'm making a special edit called "The CPY Chronicles." :-)

This is why I consider fan-edit efforts to make the prequels total failures... the prequels are only worth watching in their original, hideous form.  Because at least they can then be enjoyed for their humor factor.  Remove the humor and they're just dull.

Well, adding humor I'm totally fine with.

There are considerably better preservations available now, and you should not pay for anything (selling is strictly forbidden here).  Start browsing around the threads - there's a lot going on.

I'll take a look at that... thanks for pointing it out.

Or maybe I just adore Peter too much. ;)

As long as you don't go off posting a bunch of pictures, or saying he's a god with his shirt off, etc., I'm ok with that.  :)

When and Why: The mono mix and Puggo Grande.

Thank you for making my day (;

Which deck(s) do you have access to?  There is considerable variation in quality between the various decks.

To keep it from communicating with the Empire, and to stop it from jamming Rebel communications.

And I still think FS is (was) kenkraly after successful electroshock therapy.  You have to be careful what you wish for.

I don't think of myself as just an OT purist.  I support any effort to preserve important books and films, and have been involved in two other groups doing essentially what I am doing here.

With regards to SW, as soon as the SE came out, I saw the handwriting on the wall and bought the faces VHS set, then a crappy bootleg DVD set from somewhere in Asia.  I discovered Jay before this group existed.  Although I didn't actually become a member of this group until several years later, when Boba Feta made his super8 transfer, and I realized I had the equipment to do better and be a part of the effort.

i loved cloud city and coruscant at the end of the special edition of star wars episode 6-the return of the jedi, i don't see/get why all of these fans and purists hate it......

Wow, you really don't get it.  It's not about "what I like".  In fact, I DO like some SE things.  But that is irrelevant.  What is wrong is changing and suppressing history.

Episode 3 kicked some serious ass!!!!!

Do you think that dude who got choked by Vader on the Tantive IV survived?  I do.  You don't?  PROVE IT.

It's just so obvious that that guy (antilles) had died. Either U have never watched the star wars films/movies, U R just a silly little kid, or u R a troll trying to get other users annoyed!!!!!

He's just stunned.  Pining for the fiords.

Just maybe.....he escaped

No - the logic (as per FS's analogous thread) goes as follows:

Is there any actual evidence that Tarkin died?  Does any source actually say that he died?  If you can't produce some actual quote that says specifically that he died, then it is reasonable to imagine that he survived.

The good news about this, is that the same logic can be used for each of the remaining thousands of inhabitants of the Death Star, which in turn means that maybe the Rebels didn't kill anyone at all.  In fact, the only person we know anything at all about who was on the Death Star was Vader, and we saw him survive.  So the Rebels really are good, all they destroyed was the Death Star itself... all the people survived because there is no specific mention anywhere of any particular person dying.  Empire=bad, Rebels=good.  QED

Father Skywalker said:

And to quote Wikipedia ...

 

What does that mean?

Most people think the argument revolves around "what you like versus what I like".  Bring up film history and the response is usually short - that's for old history professors to care about.  It takes a while to graduate from "I don't care if they burn that book, I didn't want to read it anyways" to "whoa, that's dangerous and must not happen".

Jar Jar would get eaten by that big fish on Dagobah.

Father Skywalker said:

You see?? Without the rebel alliance's existence, no death star usage on any planets!!!!

That is really lame logic.  If someone opposes you, you have the right to kill people, because your defense is "if that person hadn't opposed me, nobody would have died" ?

We learn the answer to this question in:

Ep VII:  Fate of Moff Jerjerrod

Is the 35mm version of this edit going to be made available on uTorrent?

Now THAT would be a technical achievement.

I don't think Father Skywalker is trolling.  He sounds like KenKraly after successful electroshock therapy... or maybe Ken's smarter brother.  In either case, this thread rules.

Hey, check out the redletter media plinkett mike stolkassa revenge of the sith review, the entire review is funny and awesome (yes, he does make some vulgar comedy too)

RLM is considered a God here.
