Thank you for taking the time and doing the work. It looks fantastic!!! Very exciting

Do you have a target date for the release?

idk like a year. you have to remember this is a shot for shot correction.

That goes same with the Devastator edition, correct? Or are you trying push that one sooner or even later than this one? I’m just wondering. I’m personally in no hurry or anything. I do understand this kind of stuff does takes quite a bit of time and patience.

DevEd will come out on Christmas.

well, will be worth the wait

Here is it used on the 4k77 source:

enhanced

raw

Takes a LONG time to do, but it’s worth it.

JEDIT: forgot to mention this is for the devastator edit.

Was that detail from 2011 applied to 2019? It’s an incredible difference.

Using detail from the 4k77 source aswell as the upscaled 2011 blu-ray.

Here is an example of the quality recovery:

RAW

Enhanced

Closeup:

final comp

what do you think?

This is an example. of some of the really terrible grading in this release, I had to recreate color that wasn’t even in the frame to begin with!

Raw 4K blu-ray

Rem 4K blu-ray

Wow! I’ve been going through all of your pages on this thread checking out the progression, and I’m honestly in shock and awe! This project of yours is going to be amazing. I can’t wait for the release or even more updates.

If you think this edit’s cool you should check Adywan’s edit. it’s the same as this but 100% better, it’s the inspiration for this copycat edit.

Oh, alright. Well, isn’t Adywan’s revisited edit not finished for AHN yet?

technically not, as the original sd version was released about 15 years ago.

This is looking sweet! I’m just wondering is this grade going be similar to your Devastator edition?

Yeah, its based off that edit’s main source

that rocks bobson.
will you do this with anh scenes too and upgrade your anh edit??
thanks

My current SW77 edit is only the Biggs scenes, and I’m still really happy with that cut I did back in 2018. If anything, I’ll go back and do both an expanded cut based on the TC, and then a “”“”“”““Lost Cut””“”“”“”" that restructures it based on the Fourth Draft. Due to the sheer amount of B/W footage in the extended Cantina scene, I’d have to consider what to use and what not to use ultimately. Jenny is an absolute yes though.

Tack said:

This is just amazing. There’s the same kind of giddiness involved as when the deleted scenes were first unveiled. The idea that the films you enjoyed could be given a totally new but old look. And I think in some ways, the deleted scenes of ESB are even more mysterious than the ones from SW77, just because of the glimpses the trailers and tie-in media give.

Thank you! I wasn’t too familiar with how much was cut before I started digging in. As for the first SW, we basically know exactly how much was cut and about 90% of the most remarkable footage has shown up. As for ESB and ROTJ, not so much.

Tack said:

If only we had access to some other remarkable trims, like the cut Cloud City bluescreen footage or the complete Wampa attack footage (which, apparently according to Star Wars Aficionado and JW Rinzler, was filmed). Special editions be damned! This should be the alternative!

All the Wampa stuff was absolutely filmed, as bad as it all looks. Damn shame they didn’t put all of it out.

I haven’t heard of the bluescreen stuff actually being shot, I’m assuming you mean the balcony scene, which was dropped due to VFX limitations and filming scheduling problems. But there is a lot of bits and pieces missing entirely.

Here’s a before and after of the new lightsaber training. There’s no soundmix yet, the music is just temporary. I’m very happy with how the colourisation came out.

how do you do your lightsaber effects?

Thank you, and thank you for adding that shot in with the others. Wow, the 2020 raw BD looks almost monochrome! They put in more detail at the expense of a lifeless image, and I can see how skewed the raw 2011 colors are now, too magenta and the haze around the planet looks purple. I can better see what you were going for now. Looks great!

You’re welcome.

omg I want a copy! Sounds like just the thing I’ve been hoping for.

yeah, I was hoping it would come to use for you’re updated ANH edit.
