I would take anything that Hunt or anyone over at the digital bits has said with a grain of salt.....these are the same guys that thought the Patton release was wonderful and when i called them on it the review just seemed to dissappear from the site.

Yea, Hunt is a joke. His site found nothing wrong with the FOTR green tint, either. He's a studio sycophant.

None of these guys are going to speak up against the SW blu-ray color errors because it would cost them advance review discs and other perks in the future. Just be ready for across-the-board raving, just like there was for the 2004 dvds. I remember waiting to buy the set until I read reviews at places like dvdtown, ign, etc. I don't think they mentioned Luke's green lightsaber or other myriad problems. I could be wrong, though.

This was my response to seeing danny_boy troll on this forum also.

Is there no respite from these blind Lucas worshippers? Are they so insecure they have to attack anybody who doesn't suckle the flannel teet like they do?

 

Mate---I have been a member here for 2 years!

And with regards to my stance on the original unaltered trilogy---read my sig.

 

Fair enough, I forget most of your debate regards colors rather than the movies themselves. It's hard to distinguish amongst the large contingency of posters at blu-ray.com

Well I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels that way.

Adywan, I appreciate your welcome. I've followed your posts over there and it's amazing how much you hand those idiots their own asses over and over only for them to break out childishly and call you names.

The main culprit in my opinion over there is the mod 'crazyBLUE'. He began deleting my harmless posts a couple months ago. He definitely doesn't like people pointing out obvious flaws with the disc transfers. He didn't suspend danny_boy, starwarsagent, or others for thread derailment even though it was those guys who just kept coming back for more. One guy called "lilgig" swore at me twice, calling me an asshole, and he wasn't suspended.

Earlier this summer I made this video as a joke and crazyBLUE deleted it multiple times before moving it to the other SW forum on there. I personally thought it was funny and lightened the mood. http://forum.blu-ray.com/movies/172642-star-wars-wars-uot-strikes-back-other-pez-dispensers-18.html#post4794582

I wish I saved my posts that were deleted. Since other posters like us are already suspended and Adywan wasn't posting much last night and early today, it was me against all those guys and my straightforward logic and evidence from Adywan and others just got into their heads. I took no pleasure but felt compelled to explain to them why they are grossly wrong.

Sorry, have to vent a bit because I just don't get how serious and hypocritical people have to be on a message board that is meant for technical and film discussion. I'll go back when my suspension is up but be careful to not let the trolls bait me.

Oh, and who wants to bet that few, if any, official site reviewers criticize the color issues (which are all but confirmed)? There's no way someone criticizes this release openly. That would mean a risk of receiving future discs for advance review from 20th Century Fox. Bill Hunt will probably give the V a "20."

ESB - 10/10

ANH - 9.5/10

ROTJ - 9/10

ROTS - 4/10

TPM - 3/10

AOTC - 2/10

Those boys at blu-ray.com are in unbelievable denial. The mods ban anybody who points out faults of the transfer while allowing misinformation and blind fanboyism to pervade.

I dealt with various childish attacks by providing screenshots other posters such as Adywan have provided to demonstrate. Since that's not enough logic, I went so far as to show the Sith lightsabers in the PT and ask why Vader's should be any different shade of red than those, as it originally was (or closer to) before 2004. As expected, not one decent answer (other than some trolling).

All my posts in the last 20 or so hours were deleted. Other posters kept picking fights and I just responded coolly with logic and evidence. Then they hurled insults at me (bully, asshole, hater, complainer, whiner) when they realized they have no argument. I didn't express anger or attack anybody.

It's frustrating because this film franchise is the only one dominated by self-loathing fans who are afraid to question or doubt anything because they fear it would compromise their love for SW and Lucas. It's absurd. There's no room for rational discussion because, well, most of the predominant voices are either children or childish enough to appear so.

That said, I hope I find a nice home here.
