Oh. My. God.

Harmy, that is beautiful and terrible.

seemingly... un-Lucas

Just remember that his most famous films feature World War II dogfights in space. He's just moved the setting to the right time.

I thought the 70mm version of ESB was missing some things (The Falcon Dish)?

Ah, but do we know of the enhanced gamma besides the pictures online, that the web designer may have brightened because of their darkness? That's my new question.

 

This is a really good question which no one has answered. With regards to the gamma, ken's policy of wait and see just might be the only option.

daaaaangit...

I meant Return of the Puggo. What is wrong with me today?!

I suppose this has already been asked: Any plans for Puggo Strikes Back?

Oh right!

Thrawn. I liked Thrawn.

O_O

Man, I don't even think we had talked about sound mixes.

Ken, do you know something we don't about that?

Of all of Adywan's Revisited projects the one I hope to live to see it got to be ROTJ:R.

I'm only 24 and I worry about this.

Someday Anchorhead, I hope you watch Episodes 2 & 3, just so we can hear your opinion of them. I know you have no interest, but it sure would be fascinating.

Blade Runner is Radiohead. Star Wars is Oasis.

Classic pompous Gallagher.

It has always bothered me that Leia doesn't react over Vader being HER father as well! In the end when the ghosts appear she doesn't seem to care at all about Anakin. I would have added a more stuff about Leia and Vader.

I agree about the lack of Leia and Vader stuff, but I've always thought that only Luke could see the ghosts in that scene.

As someone who has never noticed matte boxes, I just wanted to let you all know that this is absolutely fascinating. Matte lines? Oh sure I see those. Matte boxes? Only ever spotted them in enhanced shots specifically designed to show them off.

Possible exception: the near three-way Star Destroyer collision in ESB?

Ray, that might be the best edit idea I've ever heard.

Needs more humdinger

Get it somewhere else, ca. 3 hours after it´s release.

after? You underestimate pirates.

To be fair, poodoo is ROTJ, not prequels.

Not that you like ROTJ, of course.

I think the new master for Episode 1 may actually have been done mainly for the 3D conversion, as they would need to have a complete digital copy for that and the old DVD master wouldn't be good enough for theatrical presentation.

Theory: Everything's brighter because it needs to be brighter for the 3D.

Not sure if that has merit.

Well, I guess that confirms that we'll be seeing the Falcon gunner shots!

So the blurays are ... really bright?

Honestly, I'd do the opposite and eliminate the glider. The trip ropes, the log rolls and the log-smash I can understand. But a glider? really?

We all KNEW they are using the 2004 master

I don't think that's true, actually. We all believed they were using the 2004 master, but we did not know it. We didn't have any real evidence, besides that one trailer, and, as many pointed out, trailers are not always a good indicator of what will actually be released.

Oh wow. The things you never notice...

Watching the clip again, I noticed there's a Y-Wing parked next to the Falcon during the sandstorm. Am I seeing that right?

I do believe that answers the question remarkably definitively.
