I love the real lived in look of the old footage.  I would love a less complicated lower key Biggs movie.

If you have a Kickstarter or need a donation I'd like to help out.

Is there any sense in petitioning Lucasfilm/Disney to release the Mike Verta 4K version in theaters this fall?

Beautiful.  I want wait to see the finished film.

Can't wait for the new cleaned up version.  I can't wait to print this out and live it like it's 1980 all over again.

Anctu-

Maybe they are like M.V. and will never release it?  Or maybe they just like taking pictures of prints they buy.  I have been going through the forums and wow this has been going on for a long time.  It's either fake or these guys have real, real dedication.  I applaud them.  If it comes out I'm sure it will be awesome. 

You know you are living dangerously when you are watching episode I on bluray.  My first time since the 90s. 

Sure I understand that.  It's a lot of work.  After a while you just wonder if it's real.  But now they are showing us Jedi.  What happened to Star Wars?  But they had Empire for a while though?  Harmy comes out with multiple versions all by himself.  I'm sure the final result will be great though.  

Long time lurker here.  Please disregard my insolence.     

True dat silverwook.  I wonder if M Verta is still on target for 2015?

-1 has been promising stuff for years.  We might be dead before he finishes. 

I agree, people were never meant to see the negative.  I saw a presentation putting the 2K Dr. Strangelove up against a print and the 2k scan was great but you could see too much.  For instance there were steel cables holding up the model planes that you could not see in the 35mm print.  In Back to the Future the actors makeup was waaayyyy too apparent in that dinner scene in the beginning.

The printing process was a beautiful art that really helped hide a lot of flaws in the filmmaking process.  It did add some of the magic to film.  I love the artistry involved with the crew understanding how their work would be transposed onto the final print.  It's the kind of thing that really takes a lot of hard work and experience to master. 

There were just some things that we were never meant to seen.
