I think Yoda should always be on Dagobah, even in the prequels, and the Jedi would sometimes go there to be trained.
I will only buy the blu-ray to rip the 7.1 mix (if there is one) for a chance of having a less sfx filled version of the complete John Williams scores for TOD TLC and KOTCS (probably the 5.1 version though :-( ), and for the extras.

Would prefer Spielberg make new stand alone films.
He is.
Lincoln for one
Robopocalypse and Interstellar were at once rumored to have spielberg attached.
Ah, I see.
Nope, John Williams wrote that section to replace that section of music, to the request of the director/producers.

Though I would prefer a version that wasn't about getting the 'film cut' (e.g. I quite like "The Emperor Arrives" as presented on the soundtrack even if it a good bit of it was cut out for the film). Still - it's amazing that you're talking this on! I'll be sure to post any bit of 'constructive criticism' I can come up with, and will try to help any other was I can!
I have it the original way on the 2nd disc in the extras section..
the reason I used the film insert, is because Williams wrote that, and intended it to be used in that spot, due to the original not being what the producers/director wanted.
the final version will be in FLAC.
Here is a video comparing the 1997 SE discs with this set:

for clarity, this is the sound I am kind of going for: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8I4hra7PeQ
constructive criticism would be welcome

Is this going to be FLAC?
Unfortunately, no, not at present.
Its tough being a Star Wars OOT Purist that enjoys restorations.
Now this is NOT the same as ABC’s stellar reconstructions of the Trilogy scores, The majority of the sources used were from the Anthology discs, and bits from the SE discs that were not on the anthology.
This edition takes all the material and presents it as recorded, for instance
1. The love theme statement in Speeder Bike Chase/Land of the Ewoks is edited out and restored to its intended place in “Han Solo Returns”
2. The “Jabba More Sinister” insert is excised from the track “Luke Confronts Jabba” and presented as its own track.
3. The Inserts edited together in the opening of the track "The Lightsaber"is presented in its proper placement in “The Emperor Arrives”
4. The Insert in The Ewok Battle is restored via Blu-Ray Rip.
5. The “Brother and Sister” skip is smoothed out.
6. The Original Version of several cues are presented.
7. The Film take of the end credits is presented
8. The Theatrical version cues are used in the main presentation, the SE cues are presented as alternates.
Equalization has been applied to all cues to bring out the harsh quality of the brass, and brighten the sound to remove the muddled and fuzzy sound of the original CD, I believe you will find that it brings the scores sound into the same realm of sound of the great Williams scores of Raiders of the Lost Ark and the like, and make a galaxy far far away sound a little closer.

well for one thing it would make the Jedi seem more Intelligent, not using an army that was OBVIOUSLY contracted by some mysterious "coincidence".
It could still be possible that Palps finds a way to wiggle Order 66 in there somewhere.
Has anyone considered having TWO Alone armies? perhaps the Jedi use the Kamino Clones for the Battle of Geonosis only, and based on the fact that Jango Fett was used as the template, and that Fett worked for Dooku, the Jedi seize the technology and use it to create their own Clone Army?

I think you missed my point about the ten guys in the same room.
Well, anyway. I can see tweaks and minor fixes to make the film flow better, but to throw out a crucial element of the story such as the events on Kamino is a bit much.
To each his own, I guess.
so we should stick to the original story?
should we throw creativity out the window?
( btw if 10 editors were in a room together, it would be more like this (but not defunct of course): http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/Collaborative-Fanediting-An-ROTJ-Proposition-Now-defunct-see-preliminary-message-in-first-post-to-see-my-most-recent-thoughts/topic/13624/ )
Hey, krloz, just for kicks, you should check out the restored 4-Disc TPM score by GGCtuk, while there are parts that are uninteresting, there may be some bits that you could use.
Just a bit of news (nothing visual about the film or more info on the script)
The recording sessions for the score of the film have apparently begun.
(in English: The Music is being recorded for the film now)

but now I worry that much of this will simply be Middle Earth according to Peter Jackson.
The Appendices more likely.

Wait a minute i thought they re-recorded the music for star trek remastered because the original music was in bad shape. Now its in good enough shape for cds?
Now the music gets restored but not used in the restoration of the show, lol.
The source elements were said to be too degraded so they tracked down the actual written scores and re-recorded them.
Not sure if the original musical tracks were in monaural that also may have been a reason for re-recording some of the music.
New sources found maybe?

While still communicating that Sebulba flashed him with his Vince or whatever.
Vents
Perhaps some music cues could be sourced form John Williams' early comedy work?
John Goldfarb, Not With My Wife You Don't, etc.?
perhaps Dooku could say "Taste man flesh" throughout the duel (like "Take That")?

And also, it is worth going just to watch the film with a bunch of fellow fans.
So, did you go? how was it?
Here I will post news about complete releases of scores that have important historical/nostalgic value (since obviously if i posted everytime a score got a complete release....)
Star Trek V: The Final Frontier: Re-Re-Release (Intrada Records - May 15th)
Jane Eyre (John Williams) Reissue (La-La Land Records)
Star Trek The Motion Picture 3CD Release (La-La Land Records June 5th)
except you won't be able to get a copy of this 3 disc release at a special price and get to get it signed?
and you won't be able to listen to Bruce Botnick, David Newman, Craig Huxley/Hundly, and Jeff Bond discuss the film/score?
or get to experience the Blaster Beam live?
and since Michael Mattesino worked on this re-release, and the DC, and is going to be there, maybe it will be a bit higher quality... though it seems not, with the tag (DVD Source)
