Sounds like a choice of stealing it via torrent or stealing it via Ebay. If the only two options are both ethically and legally challenging, why does it matter if there is a market catering to people who don't know how and don't want to learn to steal it via torrent?

Because why let people profit off of stuff they shouldn't be profiting off of?

*yawn* That's fighting a losing battle.

eBay doesn't care. Remember, they're getting $$$ off of these sales too.

Boos for Greedo. Muttering at Jedi Rocks. But the ENTIRE theatre yelling and jeering Hayden SO loudly...
As opposed to my screening where people applauded.
Cheering because it was the end of the film or because it was Hayden? No, seriously, I want to know. I wonder if there's a divide in the kinds of fans regionally.

Hayden.

I couldn't believe it. I wanted to throw up.

2011 version.

Just finished Star Wars and a panel chat with Biggs & Greedo actors!

Did someone ask Greedo how it felt to shoot first?

Auctioning off former employees ... is that legal?

I will make it legal.

RIGHT ANSWER!

See...i really try to block out the prequels as much as possible.

AND it doesn't work without the accent. ;)

These look like the same elements that were available several months ago - I tried color correcting the rebel cruiser window image for sure.

I just checked the completed items and it seems like he has a lot of the same elements. Not sure how that happens.

Was there another thread for this?

Just to give an update...as if there were any doubt: it was the 2011 version. TBH, I'm not even sure if it was a DCP. :( Although it was great seeing it with a very receptive audience, the 10 year old who was coughing so badly I thought he had Ebola and the awful compression issues took me out of it.

The only thing I can say is that after the credits were over, the word "English" came up on the screen, as if it were there for subtitles or something.

Regardless, BAM is very well respected so I would expect them to, at the very least, get a DCP but this is also Star Wars we're talking about.

I'm sure it could be argued that the Ewoks were. And, of course, Yoda.

Well that's a new weird thing to throw on the pile. As part of a "puppets on film" series, they have to show the version where puppets were replaced.

Well, look at the "trailer" they posted on the site.

Going to this on Saturday at BAM as part of their Puppets on Film series.

http://www.bam.org/film/2014/return-of-the-jedi

Considering it's being billed as The 2011 Star Wars: The Complete Saga edition, I don't expect anything different than a DLP of the Blu-ray version. But...I put the information out there.

Pink telecine?

Absolutely no idea. I'm not spending the money to buy it outright. I'd upgrade but they don't let you use the Blu-ray. I don't have the DVD anymore.

You can watch a 2 minute preview, though.

I just got a copy of the SWHS from a broadcast master in france. However, it is cut. It's not the full show. Is it worth sharing?

Absolutely and 100%! The French cut may be shorter, but it's unique and may be the most "tolerable" cut of the HS there is.

<img src="http://www.fulori.com/~skot/torrent_zomg.jpg" alt="ZOMG" width="356" height="237" />

When you say it's cut, you mean it's edited down, right?

--SKot

Correct. I believe it's just over an hour.
