Indeed: http://screenshotcomparison.com/comparison/149593
The JP trailer looks to be 2.35:1 ratio compared to the US one which seems to be 2.40:1

Sweet, I thought the JP looked less green and more blue, especially in the snow battle scenes.
Thanks.
P.s. Can you please make a screenshotcomparison of the part I posted earlier. Thank you.

Does a list of the original 1st petition signers exist from many years ago?

Ah, the threads that finally get noticed and bumped after a forum migration.

Ten million? Are you sure?

I remember hearing that 80,000 (or was it only 20,000?) signatures figure being tossed about, but maybe that was just over a certain amount of time after the petition’s creation in order to emphasize the response it got. I’d have to go back and watch Jay’s interview in The People vs George Lucas, if it’s still up on Netflix.

It may very well have gotten to ten million by May of 2006. Maybe it even kept growing after that. After all, we never actually got the unaltered trilogy on dvd in actual dvd quality. Although by that point the HD disc formats were out and that was the next frontier.

When was the petition created anyway? 2002?

Jay said:

The petition went live in March 2003. It received ~80,000 signatures if I remember correctly.

Wow I was way off, why was I thinking 10 million. Anyways, that petition did way better then the one that was from 2009 (recently taken down). ~80,000 is a very good number.

The Japanese trailer has some really great shots we haven’t seen yet (and a bunch of new lines as well):

Is it just me or does this trailer have less of Green shift in it then we’ve seen in previous trailers. Take a look at about 1:25 the snow looks a little more blue instead of Green.

Edit: https://youtu.be/sGbxmsDFVnE here is the Official (Football) trailer. Take a look at 1:49 so you can compare.

Yet another trailer. 😉

I seem to recall some old interview where Mark Hamill said that the last SW film would have a weird and 2001-esque ending. So I guess this is appropriate?

(EDIT: Does anyone remember this interview? I tried to google it but couldn’t find anything. Did I just imagine this? This may have been back when Lucas’ was considering making 12 films.)

Maybe it was in a old magazine that has yet to be digitized?

No I’m pretty sure I read it online, and it was only some five-ish years ago, but even then it was a reference to an older interview (I think from the late 80’s or early 90’s).

I seem to remember that being on the 2004 Bonus DVD somewhere (maybe Empire of Dreams), but I could be wrong.

PAT MAN IS BACK!!!

WELCOME BACK!

I’ve missed you.

I’ve missed you all too. I’ve have been on this site a few times within the last year. I’ve just never “singed” (I know “signed”) in, but, since the update it has been easier to sign in.

Well it looks like the petition has officially been taken down. I would like to thank everyone for the laughs, and good times on this topic. Hopefully in the future we won’t need to update this again (of course this is an off-topic thread, XD) because another petition has been created, and that the restored official OUT will be sitting on our shelves. Yes I know about the “rumors” about the OUT 4k.

I give up.  You spelled it wrong.

  What wrong

I singed the petition when I was shopping. They looked at me funny.

 

But really.......THE WORD "SINGED" IN THE THREAD TITLE SHOULD BE SPELLED "SIGNED"

 This still cracks me up that I never caught this lol.

You really were letting us down, pat man.  Someone had to take up your slack.  I'm disappointed I wasn't getting regular updates.  Don't you ever leave like that again!

 I promise, I won't. I just won't be on as frequently. But I still checked OT.com every once in awhile. But the news of The OUT or OOT may be out in HD in the near future, I hope.

**RUMOR** Original theatrical cut of the OT to be released on blu ray!!
Time

I'm back! I've just been busy. Anyways, if this is true it is fantastic news. It will make up for an entire generation, like myself, to see Star Wars in it's original glory. Hope like everyone says that it won't be messed up by "modern" standards. And I'm sure Disney, Lucasfilm, and 20th-Century Fox, can make an agreement, "if" Fox owns them or not, all I know is they have distribution rights. Anyways glad to be back.
