But I'm sure we'll all buy them in order to watch fanedits that use the deleted footage.

Yes, yes, yes

Yeah, that could be a real bear to clean up, if it's even possible. I'm not very knowledgeable about such things.

Posted over in the ESB/ROTJ Wishlist:

OT Deleted Scenes Trailer: http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=80121

Things I noticed:

• The ROTJ footage seems in the worst quality, which is awful news to fan editors. Anyone want to speculate on how well this stuff can be cleaned up?
• That being said, it was really great to actually see the Bunker's innards and the Mon Cal pilot
• This confirms all the basic categories of deleted scenes I can think of, other than Sail Barge stuff
• That shot of Luke & Treadwell is in much better condition than I expected, particularly in the color department
• Oh god I can see why they gave up on the Wampa

Check your PMs

Harmy to recreate jabba the puppet and film the scene again? ;-)

NO ONE SUGGEST THIS TO ADYWAN PLEASE I BEG YOU

Oh that's...uh....great....

I really appreciate that Anchorhead's contribution includes a refusal to listen to it. I'm not disagreeing with your choice whatsover, but I do like how it's very in keeping with your views on other topics.

Seven Samurai (1954), The Magnificent Seven (1960), A Bug's Life (1998)

I haven't seen the original, but it's considered a classic. I've seen the other two, and they're both excellent, though obviously A Bug's Life is a bit different in tone.

At the very least, the Star Destroyer is moving much faster in the last shot, which is jarring and doesn't make sense.

Well the SD's speed was based on the original footage.......I think it matches.....dunno?

Oh.

Never mind...

We haven't quite hit the 2 year mark, and he's already at 18000+. His post-rate has more than doubled!

If you're not an experienced space pilot, are you going to think "This weird cave is actually a slug!"? I'm okay with the answer being "no".

Done

PM'd

However, Lowry Digital originally created either 4k2k or 8k4k masters at the time (my memory is a little vague) not 1080p ones.

Is that news for us? I forget.

You know who I want to see more of? These guys

Perhaps we should say that parodies/spoofs don't count. That's not influence.

My understanding that TPM was a great proof of concept for how much you could do with digital effects. No?

I'm presently listening to the ANH Remastered, and it's fantastic. Very, very, very pleased with this. I'm not the sort that knows all the right technical terms to describe this stuff, but the word I'd use is that it all sounds so much deeper than what I'm used to.

Won't be downloading ESB on account of the Imperial Audiophile Edition, but looking forward to ROTJ finally sounding correct.

ABC's salvage editions of all three scores

I hate to ruin the thread with requests, but I've never even heard of these. I've only ever heard ABC's ESB stuff, which was superb. Any info on how I can get ahold of whatever he did with the other two?

His explosive escape from the Sarlaac would make a good opening.

I don't see why not, I guess? It would be a cool action movie, set in the Star Wars universe. Sure!

Of course, the last time I saw a work of fiction purposely not answer every question and leave things mysterious, all the LOST fans complained.
