![]() These are available in 720p and is a great choice if you want the cleanest looking recreation, as well as a lot of bonus features and audio/ subtitle options. Harmy's DeSpecialized Editions are recreations made using the Blu-Ray as a primary source, with some shots from the GOUT, Laserdisc, and VHS tapes edited in, and a variety of audio options. ![]() Schorman's HDTV are basically HD versions of the original DVD cuts, shown on TV. This release was criticised for just being a improperly formatted copy of the 1995 laserdisc transfer, and does not look nearly as good compared to the 2006 Special Editions. Most audio tracks for the following projects are time synced to this edition. It was released as a Bonus Disc for the 2006 DVD releases. The GOUT (George's Original Unaltered Trilogy) is currently the only legally available/ purchasable release of the Theatrical Cuts of the OT. "Have faith more to come.Hi there! Let me see if I can clear up some of this confusion for you (and everyone else, feel free to correct me on some details!). "I think the more vocal people are about supporting these projects, the better," Verta said. (This comparison video from Verta sums up his issues pretty clearly.) He's so passionate about the issue, that Verta told Movie Mezzanine that he is scheduling a meeting with Disney and 20th Century Fox executives to screen the film and pitch them on the potential of a true restoration. Another unreleased restoration project, by composer Mike Verta, is said to be highest quality version yet, and a significant improvement to the oversaturated colors of the Blu-ray release. With Disney having purchased Lucasfilm, however, fans are hoping for that to change. George Lucas famously vowed that the original cuts would never be released, and that a true restoration would be impossible due to the changes made to the original elements for the Special Edition releases. The noise is getting louder from fans to see the original films as they were first released, not only as a historical artifact, but because that's the way people first fell in love with them. (It's the same reason why when you watch digital restorations of old movies certain wipes, transitions, or special effects suddenly leap out as grainier than the rest of the restored footage producing those effects back in the day required compositing images on film, baking in added grain.) But the result is Star Wars as it was when it set the world on fire nearly 40 years ago: Han shoots first, Jabba doesn't show up, and there's not a scrap of intrusive computer-generated imagery to be seen. But given that this was an analog, photochemical procedure, each generation away from that original negative introduced softness and grain into the image, making the source material for this new version softer than the negatives used for official releases. Instead, an intermediary print called an internegative - essentially, a duplicate of the final, color-corrected negative - would be used to strike the release prints that ended up in theaters. That's largely due to the elements used back in the days of film releases, prints wouldn't be struck from the original conformed negative due to the high probability of damage. To combat that damage, the scanned elements underwent digital restoration to stabilize the images, color-correct them, and remove damage and dirt - and while the end result is impressive, it's not going to be what you're used to from a modern Blu-ray release.
