Re: Star Wars 4-6 on DVD this Sept. 21!

the original Star wars was first broadcast in Mono sound so nonetheless im very impressed by the sound upmixing quality , further more most of the sound niggles i have read of seem very Fanboish and from Anti-lucas campaigners .

1 thing this dvd set really shows is how Old filming tecniques using real models and Real sets the latest CGI bloated films, If lucas could have spent more $'s on developing real sets in Eps 1-2 and likely 3 the actors may not have been so craptastic when performing, Blue screen sets are killing the industry imo .

Hats of to Lucas on a fine DVD set

Aah, but thats because most cinemas did not have any form of surround sound, not because the film was not recorded in surround sound.

Stutter or pause, if it's a pause (of less than 2 seconds) it is probably a layer change on the disk.

Re: Star Wars 4-6 on DVD this Sept. 21!

thats what i was thinking, but theres a bunch of green crap at the bottom of the screen lik eits corrupted.. ??? just tested it in faster DVD drive and same thing but without the corruption, thats a Poor Layer change.. usually it should only take a split second but this freezes for 1-2 secs, dont miss anything important though.

Re: Star Wars 4-6 on DVD this Sept. 21!

There is no pause on mine mate. 74 mins 4 secs is a chapter change though from 32 to 33. But its a smooth transition on mine. Thats on the xbox and just tried it on my pc now and its fine aswell.

Re: Star Wars 4-6 on DVD this Sept. 21!

Has anyone watched Return of the Jedi yet?

You know the scene where the ghostly images of Anakin, Obi-Wan and Yoda appear to Luke, at the end of the film?

I was sure that, in the original release and when the special editions came out, Anakin was the same old bloke when Luke took off Vader's mask. But on the disk it's a younger bloke, (I suppose an older Hayden Christensen).

Have I just imagined it?

What with one thing and another I haven't got to watch my set yet

But you are right

(mal - you should look at the pictures at the bottom of the second list - i only added the other one for comparison over the whole set )

By the way - if you haven't seen the films (why the hell not ) these pictures may constitute spoilers so don't click if you don't want to know.

Thanks for that I thought I was going mad.

I also think that Boba Fett's voice was redubbed in ESB to Temura Morrison's, but it doesn't mention that.

It does in the main review

http://www.thedigitalbits.com/review...rstrilogy.html

You'll have to hunt for it - if you don't believe me - but here's the bit

'These include the use of Temuera Morrison as the voice of Boba Fett (which I suppose makes sense given that Boba is a clone of Jango from Episode II)'
