Should that be a threat, lucasdroid ?

The colours are pretty much messed up and de-saturated, and R2's blue panels are now grey with blue shadows

A short question - are you working with a 1977 print or a 1981 print ? The canyon scene is really dark

Nice pics ! Do you also plan to do some colour correction or do you want to preserve the exact look of the laser disc ?

Hm... I was afraid something like this will happen when I read that post :-(

I'm sorry to say it but it looks absolutely horrible

Looks great

So no offense to anyone who wants to try the scripts out. Once we've presented the final version of our work, I will share the color settings and curves.

Great.

and we kind of want to keep the exact settings a bit secret, at least for now.

Why, in a community that is transparent and giving like this one, would you would want to do this? I think I know the answer, but I would love to hear your take on it.

-G

OH please enlighten the whole community with your answer oh great one, you are such an arrogant piece of ........

and you can sit there and type away that your shit is in this script all you want, but this was one of my goals from the start that I wanted everything you have done OUT! you act like you are the know all of everything GOUT related, well sir your shit has been passed up now so why don't you just take a seat and STFU!

some people, unbelievable lmao, but it is cool that this bothers you though, it must suck for you.

Ehm... sorry ? Wasn't this a FRIENDLY place last time I checked ?

NOW I'm excited :-)

My personal favorites :

Currently existing

- EditDroid set - 8 DVDs (1 Star Wars with mono mix, 3 other discs are the movies taken from the same laser discs as the official GOUT release, and other 4 discs are just bonuses transferred from all official LDs) - excellent set with great bonus stuff, lovely menus and nice cover art, but the movies themselves look slightly worse than the GOUT

- DarkJedi "v2" set - sourced from the GOUT, resized to anamorphic proportions, cleaned up, color corrected, and every movie has multiple audio options. However there are no bonuses if I remember correctly

In development

- Harmy's re-creation - He uses multiple sources to re-create the first movie properly AND in HD, his workprints look fantastic !

- 35mm preservation - 35mm copies of the movies transferred to HD

- DarkJedi "ProjectBlu" - much improved version of his "v2" set, and even in HD

Wasn't it Russ's site ? :-)

Is a guinea pig OK too ? :-)

Sounds to me like DavisDVD.com , but that one is down for a long time.

I start to think he's YOU :-)

But if you SERIOUSLY don't know it he was a user who got banned.

Negative1, Harmy, DJ (and everybody I forgot to mention right now) - you are my personal heroes. I want to be able to watch at home the movies with which I fell in love as a kid/teenager, and thanks to YOU guys it WILL be possible.

Thanks again to everybody working on these fantastic releases. I hope George hires somebody who will take some "measurements" how many people will download these preservations and recreation and understand that he can make more money if he releases the movies officially.

I am of course willing to seed everything so that all old fans can get what they want

Thank God and negative1 for myspleen :-)

Excellent :-)

Great :-)

The 8mm restoration is the FIRST I really like from you

After seeing these pics I remember now why I fell in love with Star Wars when I was a kid :-)

Looks better than the old transfer I have. I'd love to have a copy

The new design is absolutely terrible and almost nothing from the original contents is there :-(

Great find ! Do you have a "downloadable" version ?
