Yes, the recompositing was the least upsetting part of the SE. (And some of it was necessary, because some of the VFX portions of the negative we're on Color Reversal Intermediate and had faded to the point that nothing could be recovered from them.)

 Plus, given the goals of the SE (that is, not-about-historical-preservation), it completely makes sense to recomposite to remove matte lines and all that.

Why does the thread need any action, if there's nothing new to discuss concerning its topic?

 I keep hoping for a Special Edition of this thread with all off topic posts removed.

The SE of this thread will be released on 15 Feb 2028 and will contain a few more off-topic posts as well as the following CGI added to all of them.

Dino!

On 15 Feb 2039 Adywan will release his own SE of the SE of this thread which will remove some off-topic posts, clarify/reinterpret others, and change the CGI to the following.

Dino!

Everyone: Please accept my sincere apology for this post. I love you all.

 Hey! There is nothing wrong with the classic thread contents! They hold up pretty well compared to your digital crap!

i just caught this in the comparison vid #2:

i know that this is just a test version, but i hope ady will do something about the obvious green screen in dooku's hair

 This thread is about episode 5.

 Be that as it may this thread is unequivocally desolate. Might as well talk about something while we're anticipating news. 

 Nope! Did you know you can talk in other threads about other topics? This thread is for ESB:Revisited. A different thread is for the Revisited Saga, and thus the Revisited Prequels. That thread can be found here.

Does anyone really miss not being able to read Sword of the Jedi.

 So the ink from the books vanished? Refusig to read a good story because it is no longer canon is like feeling obliged to read every crappy novel, just because it is canon.

 He's talking about a book (or trilogy of books?) that was never published, because of the big EU upheaval.

The second Death Star is destroyed. The Emperor and his powerful enforcer, Darth Vader, are rumored to be dead. The Galactic Empire is in chaos.

It's probably nothing, but is anyone else curious about the word choice there?

 Well where are the bodies? Who can prove they didn't escape the explosion? Many would hope they did - and so the rumors spread. Some would even take advantage of the situation and become shadowy impostors.

All Things Star Trek

I'm a long time Trek fan who hasn't actually seen all of any of the series, just lots of bits here and there. But now, I'm watching TOS. Only 2 episodes in, so far, but am surprised at how surprised I am at the symptoms of the sixties. Crewmen leering at Rand, overly creepy Twilight-Zone-esque Charlie, etc.

It is good though, don't get me wrong.

I love how the article describes the movie as: "The story is set 'a long, long time ago in a galaxy not too far from here' where Grand Moff Tarkin (Peter Cushing) rules the Galactic Empire from his Death Star, an enormous artificial planet managed by Imperial Storm Troopers. ..."

I think he needed to watch the movie again! :-)

 Other than small expository dialogue mentioning the Emperor, he didn't miss much
