Krieg der Sterne - Despecialized Edition 2.7 (German) (Released)
Time

Hi guys,

i tried to adjust/update the cover art a little bit. I used the following poster art because it fits better with Laserschwert´s ESB & ROTJ “comic” cover styles. It is a early draft, without the “weathering” effect Laserschwert used on his covers. Anyone has the proper font name for “Es war einmal…”? As last step I would try to add a used paper effect layer on the front like Laserschwert did on the back.

Edit: Weathered version

I tried to apply a used paper look with a noise filter and an alpha channel paper texture, but my skills in Fireworks aren’t the best ones. Maybe Laserschwert could help me out.
Hope you still like it!

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

I was never pointing on someone’s post here. It is a only a notice of things I read on Facebook and somewhere else. No personal offense.

I don’t understand the people here that are complaining over colors, crushed blacks etc. Wtf are they talking about? I mean you gave us the best experience of ROTJ ever and people are complaining the Shit out of that. We have to be so thankful for what you have done and the time you spent for this version. I think the colors are awesome, ROTJ never looked better imo!!

Some people really have 1st world problems…

While I haven’t yet offered any criticism or feedback on this release, I really don’t think this comment is fair to many here who have.

I believe Harmy wants constructive, politely stated feedback, that’s the way this project continually evolves and improves. I think most everyone, here at least, who have commented on dark scenes, crushed blacks, etc. has done so politely with genuine expressions of appreciation. I know I for one find the Emperor a little dark on the crossed sabre scene, though I haven’t mentioned it. That doesn’t mean I’m not appreciative of what Harmy had accomplished. But I’m also appreciative of those who brought it to Harmys attention so he can consider it for future releases. Similarly, while the blacks look fine to me, I don’t think there’s any wrong with those who see it differently. Then Harmy makes whatever call he wishes, as it should be. And when Harmy responds to criticism or feedback, he always says why he made the choices he did, and for me at least this is interesting.

And your comment about “first world problems” is frankly a little snide. They’re ALL first world problems. Wanting a despecialised edition in the first place because the current Blu Ray isn’t good enough for us (and it’s not) is a first world problem. All we talk about on this forum are first world problems. If you’re unconcerned with such problems then stick with the Special Editions you already (presumably) have on BD and be done with it.

So as far as I can see most everyone here is thankful for what Harmy has done. But if everything was perfect from the get go there would have been no need to go beyond 1.0. So if someone is being rude (e.g. Calling it disgusting) by all means call them out. Bur theres nothing wrong with constructive feedback.

We’ll start a new thread for the Eastman vs Technicolor version when we are ready to discuss more about it.

Right - we have to finish the LPP first!

Edit: But I will add one more teaser, just for the OT crowd.

This video was produced using this technique (plus a little post processing to clean it up a little more), and it only took about a week… It has not been color corrected.

This is absolutely awesome! A huge quality jump compared to v1!
