I know that there is now a 4K version of the Director’s Edition but I still think this version needs to exist because it’s great for those that still want the Robert Wise handled version. Some people including myself found the new 4K version to be so heavily processed with the smudgy, grain removing filter on everything, and the heavily compressed, bassy, non-reverberated ADR.
So I think I would like to continue to improve it. And one of the things that always bothered me about the Director’s Edition DVD version is how old and dirty the film looked. This look carried over to the HD v3 release. And I was wondering if anyone, especially the creator, would like a version of this film with color correction?

Greetings, I personally would not mind–even would enjoy–such a color-correction, please.

I just popped my GOUT copy of Star Wars 77 into my blu ray player and displayed it on my 55 inch lcd flatscreen the other day . First time in a very long time that I have watched it ,and it looked atrocious on that . Hell , my letterbox 1992 VHS looks better on that tv . ( I tried it right after ) . The GOUT is a grainy mess in comparison . I also messed around with the settings on my tv and displayed each in both 4x3 for proper proportions ,and in zoom mode .I will have to take a look at these on my crt’s later to see if they look better .Looking back at some of the links at the top of this thread , I do think Mike Verta was right in his belief that there was artificial grain applied to this release to make it look sub standard .Also , when this release came out , a lot of people were saying these looked better than the laser disc preservations that were being made at the time .Is that due to the displays they were being watched on at the time ? A lot of people still had crt’s back then . Granted , the dvd image may be sharper , but I will take the softer look of VHS or Laserdisc over this grainy image any time . I did watch my 92 VHS letterbox copy on my 30 inch widescreen Samsung Slimfit HD CRT recently , and that looked spectacular and crisp and vibrant on it ,though the colors did not “pop” like on the 95 faces VHS , but it looked more like I remember it looking in the theater originally .I go back and fourth sometimes , but I now think this is my ideal way to watch it out of all the media formats I own . I will definitely have to see how the GOUT looks on that crt .
Greetings ScreamsfromtheVoid, just to ask, were you ever capable of testing those G.O.U.T. discs upon that aforementioned HD CRT screen; if so, did they fare samewise or worse than the letter-boxed VHS-cassettes?

Greetings Booshman, just to ask, is this the edition of the film that you have been previewing upon your Youtube-channel, or is it one of your earlier edits of the film? Please pardon if my question seems ignorant. ^^;

Greetings, may I suggest Archive.org for sharing; if you fear of any future copyright-claim upon that website, I may recommend the method of mis-titling the uploaded videos and providing farse “tags” thereof, as such has–thus far–been proving well for myself.
