I'd like to encourage everyone to keep donating! We're having a fundraiser on September 16, where instead of buying the Blu-rays, we'd like to have everyone donate at least one dollar/pound/euro/peso/whatever to the Project. Just follow the link in my sig to the site to find the Paypal button!

Star Wars coming to Blu Ray (UPDATE: August 30 2011, No! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!)
Time

You don't think Lucas isn't depressed that so many people despise the movies he obviously thinks are perfect representations of what he wants Star Wars to be? I think he's taking it out on the originals that he will never be satisfied with. I'm surprised he's not trying to remake them in his image. The "real 4 5 & 6" that he has complete creative control over...

Apparently those aren't mockups, they're shots from the Blu-ray, according to MF.com.


Yes indeed they are, and it is interesting that it seems that the reflections on 3PO's parts of the furnace are still blue

When you say "interesting" you mean, "predictable", right? Attention to continuity issue creating changes are not LFL's strong suit.

I've been updating the below post with whatever changes people say they have seen.  (some might be incorrect as it's usually just one person's pov)  Some have links to pic/vid if you'd like a placeholder.

I'm going to have the guy who's helping me check on the rumors.

These R2 rock additions are cracking me up. The rocks never change, even if the angle on R2 changes.


Do you think they're also an artifact of the 3D conversion?

(Imagine big rocks popping out at the audience with R2 peeking out.)
I would think so, but you'd think Jabba's door would be more 3D if that was the case.

Did they fix the changing windows in Cloud City? As much as I hate the new windows, it drove me nuts that they'd revert back in following shots, exemplifying the laziness of the SE. I'd been told awhile back that George and crew were aware of them, and would be doing something about it.
I think Ady would have noticed, since that's what he's been working on recently for his own edit. I'd be looking to have the work done for me! ;-)

I'm not sure if I posted this, but I'm working with someone to get the visual comparisons started:

Feel free to spread them around, this will be updated and kept around. After the Blus come out officially, I will be integrating them into the Complete Comparisons.

And i found another small change in ESB. They have added reflections to the window in Cloud City.
Did they fix the fact that the Cloud Car's engines aren't on until after it rounds the building in the SE shot before that one? Probably not. How can look at the originals and cringe, but not fix any of what I cringe about?

People who pre-ordered this did so thinking they were getting the films with a few new changes but none of these were new revelations were announced after waiting for the countdown clock a few months ago.
I firmly believe none of these changes were even in the planning stages before May 4th. It would take one guy a month to do all of those changes. I believe that's all the time they took.
