The "Purist" edition, IIRC:

- Removes any music not originally in the film
- Restores Threepio's line at the beginning from "There'll be no escape this time" back to "There'll be no escape for the Princess this time"
- Restores the theatrical edit of the Obi-Wan/Luke hut scene
- Removes the two new Death Star reveals
- Removes the new TIE reveal from the Death Star battle

Am I missing anything else here?

Oh, and as for the "Purist" torrent:

- There IS NO DVD-9 (dual-layer) of the Purist version.  Any that claim to be are mislabeled and are actually the full Revisited version with ALL changes intact.
- You'd want the "Purist" DVD-5 (single-layer), which should be in the ballpark of 4.5 gigs, which you can burn to a DVD-/+R and play on your DVD player.
- The smaller AVI versions are just video files you can watch on your computer - there should be one that's 700 MB, and one that's around 1400 MB (1.4 GB).  I don't remember if either of those are the "Purist" version.
- While there IS NOT a DVD-9 (dual-layer) of the "Purist" version, there IS a DVD-5 (single-layer) of the full Revisited version.  If you decide against the "Purist" edition, but don't want to download an 8-gig file or don't have a dual-layer DVD burner, the DVD-5 of the Revisited version would be what you want.

Also, if you decide on the full version and not the Revisited version, I can mail you a copy of the NTSC (USA & Canada format) DVD-9.  I do NOT have access to the Purist version, or a PAL (Europe, etc. format) copy.

Wow, thanks, thats great, do you actually mean postage mail? eventhough the DVD-9 version still has the changes, it still looks like a must have with the high quality visuals and extras. I'll still try and pursue the purist version just for the sake of having the changes removed, but if you can mail the DVD-9 complete one that would be great!!! (all this file stuff and burning is so confusing, and i know jack all) I'm in Australia, but the NTSC shouldn't be too much of a problem, since I'm determined to get the purist version running anyway and I can get a hold of somthing that will run it.

Hey welcome to the forums Ingwe

 Hey thanks!!!

Hello I'm new!!!

I love Star Wars and I love what has been done visually by

Adywan to the film, its absolutely amazing, thank you.

I havn't actually got a hold of the revisited movie, I've only seen clips and read the changes, it seems the soundtrack has been changed. But I would really like the original music soundtrack in the film. Is it true that the "Purist" version changes the soundtrack back to the original one? If so, how many changes does the "Purist" version have in terms of visually from Adywans standard revisited ?  Becasue I would hate if too many of Adywans viual changes would be removed.  My only issue is that I want the original soundtrack AND Adywans visuals and changes.

And if the "Purist" edition is the one I want, I'm confued which one and were to get it. Not only are all the "Purist" torrents unseeded (is the DVD-9 the correct one?), but also there seem to be two types: a "2-CD AVI AC3" which is under 2 gigs and a "NTSC DVD9" which is over 7gigs. Is the DVD9 one the one you can watch on your DVD player? and whats the other smaller version?

Please help me get the experience that I need, and to direct me to get the one that I should want, I am ever so lost !!!!

Thank You.
