Star Wars 1080p review.

[Darthrazz]

ADYWAN'S version of ANH, is the only one I watch now. It has become my definitive version.

Not something to discuss in public. PM me before Dave has to clean up this thread.

SSSSSHHHHH!!!! Lucas hears everything!!!

He'll want his cut.

I alwalys thought Lucas waited forever to release the dvd because all of the imperfections that a movie could get away with due to the media used to view and record movie back then would be present in the better technology of today, even more so with blu ray.

But you have to admit its cool to catch little things here and there that didn't catch in the past.

I keep forgetting I have Spike in HD now. I'll have to check them out when they air again.

I'm not sure what you guys are viewing these on, I watched TPM on HBO on•demand in HD and it looked great.

Phantom Menace doesn't count since it's not a real Star Wars movie.

If your watching it on a TV Broadcast, than it is not 1080P, broadcasters only air in 720P for some reason. This includes On Demand. The only (legitimate) way of seeing the films in 1080P (for the time being) will be on Blu-Ray.

I dont know anything about Adywan's version, I assume it is a download.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Who is Adywan, what does he do, and why are his versions so good?

Just because of color correction?

Can he correct the SE?

I like to know too

This wasn't Adywan versions.

It's a pirated version / torrent from where, I'm not sure. If it was from a TV broadcast that was 720p or 1080i they have somehow converted it to 1080p as that's what resolution is display on the plasma info.

Don't get me wrong guys, I have already ordered my Blu-Ray box set, I was simply bringing it to people's attention the (current) visual limitations that I wasn't expecting.

So again, I'm hoping they knock a home run with the Blu-ray mastering.

I didn't know who he was either; just do a google search and you can read up on him.

Adywan created a very good fan edit of ANH. Here's a clip VS. the official SE.

I do not know who Adywan is but I have seen his ANH. He did some really great things but there were a few scenes he added that I thought were really crap. I guess the guy is on a mission to edit and do his own definitive versions of the OT. Overall the guy has skillz and you should be able to YouTube some of his scenes.

 

[darthmadonna]

Kamandi that clip you shared with the Ties is what got me to search out his version. I still think that first shot of the ties is so freaking cool.

[pixletwin]

In a nut shell Kamandi has sown you why Adywan's version kicks butt.

 

[Darth Waller]

It does indeed rock.

 

[Mandible]

Holy crap! How good is Greedo in the Adywan version!!!

 

[Kamandi]

Han shoots first

 

[Darth Mitchell]

Lol just noticed you can see one of the lights on the back of R2's dome through a small gap between the dome and the body

But about the Adywan versions... I don't understand why he had to collorcorrect? I think Dagobah looks much more interessting without it...
