“Canon” means official canon as far as I’m concerned.
If you care about ‘canon’ of a fictional universe, you’re either a teenager, or I feel sad for you.
I’m glad its several people’s jobs to keep track of these things then.
Can you ever just let people have fun?
I don’t go into that thread, so I appreciate you bringing this to us.
We’re talking about Fox’s Blu-rays of 1-6 vs Disney’s digital copies. Fox is going to release the same discs every second until 2020 is over.
As for being the same stock, I doubt they have warehouses full of printed discs that every few years they put into a different case. And it’s not like they recall a store’s stock, rip open all the sets, put them in different cases, then send them back out. I imagine this is Fox having finalized disc images that they don’t have the rights to modify any more, so they just reprint them over and over.
To be fair, the idea of wanting a 35mm print of the movie that led the revolution to help kill film in order to properly preserve an end-to-end-digital presentation is kind of funny.
My friend confirmed the 2011 changes. If a 4K exists, it wasn’t there.
My friend who is a projectionist talked to the projectionist at Celebration for us:

Spoke to the projectionist at #SWCO and confirmed that these are the same 2K DCPs used for the OT Blu-rays. No 4K (except for Rogue One).
Yep
I don’t have the 2015’s but since that’s a few second tool that even I remember how to use, it was there to bring focus to the crowded shot for the clip.
What are we looking at here?
A brightness change on the big three?

Also keep in mind the last time they announced they were releasing the originals it was shit.
That could be just as much of an indicator of a 4K release of the SE.
Why would they discount the films on the exact day of the panel if there wasn’t something related to home media whatsoever? It’s not like most iTunes shoppers would know about the convention and connection otherwise…
They talked about the Convention on GMA, the average person knows about Celebration and are now thinking “maybe I should buy those movies, oh look, they’re on sale!” It’s not like Apple needs to get rid of the digital inventory.
And they’re $5 off the whole set. The saga isn’t in impulse buy territory.
Alright, knock it off before I have to call in the grammar police.
He thought that this was a picture of Adywan’s Wampa suit, which it is not.

were you able to get the wampa to work?yes, the wampa is now working.
as a gardener. 😉
On a slightly more related note: it’s hard to get an idea of scale from the photos - how large was the hangar model?
9ft L x 6ft W x 3-4ft H. It was made 1/72 scale
Holy Crap! Is this for real?! That Wampa looks sick. I can’t wait to see it in action.
That’s… no. That’s not the Wampa.
We’ll know about the Wampa when he tells us about the Wampa. He knows what he’s working on, he doesn’t need reminded.
The grain removal tests are decent. There are also black and white test shots too.
Some seem a little too scrubbed though. Also, note the color correction is not
that consistent.The stories of a personal Technicolor reference for Star Wars, is actually the
same one from a private individual who lent it to Lucasfilm, since they didn’t
have one available at the time. This print is the one that has been scanned
and is the basis for current fan restorations in 4k.R1
This is a confusing post, especially for those who haven’t been following this thread (such as myself).
You have posted some stills. Where did you get them? What are we seeing in them? Are they downrezzed from a higher quality source? If so, what is this source, have you seen said source in full, and do you still have access to it?
Do we know what kind of source the clips in the Vimeo link are from? Same source as rogue1’s stills?
Are these clips/stills WIP or finished?
Are you saying that a Technicolor dye-transfer print was scanned for restoration? If so, by whom? If it was by an official entity, they would be acting stupid, as IB prints are ill suited to proper restorations due to high contrast, and should only be used for rough colour checks (sayeth Robert A. Harris).
What 4K fan restorations are there? Are you talking about Mike Verta’s hyped-up-but-not-for-public-consumption restoration?
CONTEXT, PEOPLE!
Every negative1 post is confusing and assumes you know things even they don’t know.
The source is a demo reel for a restoration company from maybe 5 years ago that I believe the discovery of inspired the creation of this thread 3 years ago. If there was a Technicolor print scanned by LFL, we don’t know what happened to it, but most of the 4k scans, including, I imagine, negative1’s are based on it.
For his job being communication, Spicer is the absolute worst at it.
Lightsaber flashes are 2004 changes, which as far as we know were never printed to film.
Ady does clarify on Facebook that he’s making diorama pieces with the ships to auction later.
For what it’s worth, here’s the lightsaber flashes from that video compared with the GOUT and DVD/Blu:
Here are my comparisons from 3 years ago god.

“So, can you show me all the film in the archives? Cool, cool. WAIT WHATS THAT OVER THERE?!”

It’s Force For Change.
This Max Rebo stuff has blown my mind. I wonder if new canon will have him in his true form.
These from the video we found on some company’s website?
