Going back to TFA -- I have to admit being a little sad when I saw Chewie with a bandaged arm in the new trailer. Would prefer my fave character remain beyond harm :)

Also : Star Wars Rebels is knocking it out of the park three episodes in. The third episode of this new season is some of the best edited and directed animated TV I've seen in ages.

but I imagine anybody would be let down after Empire - esp when they bring back another Death Star for round 2

yeah and it wasn't that impressive, it didn't blow up a planet just a couple starships. Lando and wedge when you really think about it just blew up some scaffolding, considering how it was half finished.
Ackbar took down that super star destroyer hardcore though damn

Jabba being all "gtfo bitchass Jedi" to Luke's mindtricks only to be hoist by his own petard and die anyway is classic.

lol yeah. Lucas doesn't even waste time -- Jabba waves Luke aside.

There are at least three belch jokes/beats in Jedi: the ILM/Henson crew-looking frog thing, Jabba himselft after space frog consumption, and the Sarlacc after Boba Fett goes in.

I thought the Sarlacc belch was added in a "special edition" later. And Jabba's is at least in character.

Jedi was cool w the forest, and yeah Jabba's stuff was cool.
But Darth Vader should've been James Earl Jones, or a crazy half robot half person, not just some pasty little guy in the suit.

Liked the Ewoks as a kid though, the Ewok movies got a lot of replay. A large part of what makes them tolerable is not speaking English.

I haven't watched any of these films in about 15 years, but that blue elephant thing from Return of the Jedi is still my favourite character from Star Wars (I'm sure it has a name, but I prefer to think of it as 'that blue elephant thing')

The Palpatones were a band formed from three former members of the Max Rebo Band, which split shortly after death of Jabba the Hutt, with whom they had been in an exclusive contract. Their name was a portmanteau on Palpatine and the word "tone".

How Lucas really ruined both musical sequences in ROTJ is beyond criminal.

The first Star Wars films I saw were the re-releases in 97. I think overall they are better than the original versions, including the ROTJ songs, from what I've seen on youtube.

Chimp-eyed woman totally creepier. The old dialogue is also more vague, and therefore more interesting.

More obvious Vader and Palps are bullshitting each other in second version.

So I downloaded ROTJ blu-ray (15 gb) and the despecialized version (15 gb). I have them running side-by-side.
The color difference is remarkable. The official version has so much magenta where red should be and bluish-white where white should be. Human skin looks like everyone took a bath in hot water.

Ultimately it comes down to people's saturation preferences but tv's do that on their own nowadays. You can switch tv display to movie, livid, sports, etc.That's why vanilla might be the way to go.
― The Once-ler, Monday, 26 October 2015 22:24 (eight years ago) link
honestly it all depends on the scene. some scenes look better specialized and some despecialized
― The Once-ler, Monday, 26 October 2015 22:31 (eight years ago) link
Okay, this is the 4th post in a row but the despecialized version looks way better than the official blu-ray in most cases.
