We're never getting unaltered versions of the Original Trilogy on Blu Ray, are we?

>2015
>not sticking with supierior VHS format
>>63594097
I just want Episode IV. The other two the editions don't even really matter, but damn is vanilla Episode IV many magnitudes better than the made for TV SFX of the special edition.
>>63594097
I actually just watched star wars episode IV for the first time literally 3 hours ago and I think it was the special edition I've heard about because they had jabba the hutt in cgi which is strange. Shit looked horrible among the other horrible elements.
Good movie otherwise, but why did Lucas have to go back even further and shit on the OT?
>>63594169
Really? You want that bullshit CGI hairball in RotJ left in ..oh also Hayden Christenson at the end and Jar Jar Binks screaming Wesa freeeee!!
It'll happen someday. But it'll take some doing, especially since Disney and Fox would have to work out some kind of deal. tldr: don't hold your breath
>>63594203
Lucas is a insecure 'perfectionist'. When the CGI was invented, he just went crazy.
>>63594203
Lucas went nuts. Empire Strikes Back at least hardly has any changes.
The changes are a taste at what Lucas would have done to the prequels if nobody fought him.
>>63594235
That stuff is ignorable (well, other than the fucking Vader "no"). The shit they added to pad out IV isn't, especially the crappy additions in Mos Eisley.
>>63594285
>Vader No?
You mean in ROTS right?
>>63594285
like that stupid CGI frog comic relief they added to the exterior shot of Jabbas Palace in ROTJ?
>>63594315
unfortunately they don't, Lucas added Vader doing another "noooooo!" when he decides to throw Sheev into the pit.
>>63594315
Georgie Boy spliced the ROTS audio into the end of ROTJ whenVader kills Sheev.
>>63594272
The changes in Jedi tho, fucking unforgivable, actually make the movie unwatchable
>>63594351
>Sheev kills Anakin
>Vader screams NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>Anakin kills Sheev
>Vader screams NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
POTTERY
You could download the Despecialized Editions and burn them onto blu rays, theoretically.

Just stick with the 2004 versions.
" b-b-but muh orignal pure versions"
They fucking suck, take off the nostalgia goggles or being dumb hipsters.
>ctrl+f "harmy"
>phrase not found
Jesus fuck, get it together, people.
I remember downloading the originals, but they were really shitty quality. I am think I am going to download the blu ray editions now so I can see it in HD and all the stupid shit they added. Also, I needed to rewatch them anyway for 7.
>>63595212
good b8
but really do love the quality of the picture and sound on the blu ray when lucas isn't fucking with it. despecialized are not perfect but they are close
>>63594272
I think ESB has one of the worst changes. In changing the chimp-woman Emperor to McDiarmid for the DVD, he altered the dialogue and weakened the scene's flow dramatically.
>>63595212
this is not b8, this is just fucking stupid
>>63594968
holy shit stop recommending these they look like shit
Quick, post Special Edition changes that you actually like
>>63595599
some of the stuff they added in the final battle of a new hope is okish
>>63595413
>one of the worst changes. In changing the chimp-woman Emperor to McDiarmid
Are you fucking serious? Chimp woman looked fucking retarded.
>>63595599
Windows in cloud city
Boba fett voice change
Sheev to replace the chimp bitch
>>63595628
that's not as important as the writing of the scene.
plus McDiarmid's face doesn't fit the look of the rest of the film OR his appearance in the next movie. it didn't even accomplish the goal Lucas intended.
>>63595599
I liked that they added a few more ships during the Death Star battle. The original was too little to be ragtaggy. But that's a personal thing.
And the fixed lightsabers cause that triggered my autism something fierce
>>63594097
Nope, never.
But fan edits will get better and better and soon they'll be just as good.
>>63595641
>liking kiwi Boba over this

>>63594235
Good fucking lord.
I forgot about that. I saw the "remakes" when they came out and I have refused to ever see them again. I am just now realizing I havent seen star wars in SO long because of this. Probably since the DVD became popular.
>>63594097
my mom has them on vhs
>>63595641
>Boba fett voice change
Go fuck a sheep.
>>63595748
Harmy's versions are all already finished. they're about as good as any reasonable person (who isn't going to rewatch the films obsessively looking for minor flaws) will ever need.
John Landis claims Disney is going to do it. Though it seems Fox still holds the rights until 2020 so who knows.
>>63595851
I agree for the most part, the Vader eyebrows need improvement along with a few other things.
>>63595599
Literally the only thing I like better is the new ending music in RotJ
Jub Nub was fuckin' awful.
>>63595902
You shut your whore mouth.
>>63594097
I bought that box expecting the best. I am disappoint.
>HUUUR DUUUUUURRR BRIGHT LIGHTS TRIGGER MY AUTIMS HURRR
op go die in fire
nothing wrong with special effects
>>63595881
We should ask Max.
>>63595962
>Likes the Ewok song
>tripfaggot
Not surprised at all
>>63595772
sounds like CIA
>>63596269
Lord Vader, I'm SLAVE-1.
Yes we will. Calling it now.
After the 3rd trilogy, Disney will release the 9 movies in one with an option for the original, unaltered cut.
The catch? $500 base cost, $1500 on ebay since it'll sell out after 5 minutes.
>>63595549
They are objectively the best HD rendition of the original star wars trilogy
>>63596315
You don't get to disintegrate friends.
>>63595891
Need improvement in what sense - is the composition job dodgy? I didn't notice it when I watched them but I wasn't paying close attention to spot issues because it was my first time watching the films
>>63596404
Yeah, I mean it must be nearly fucking impossible to digitally add eyebrows onto a film when you're one man with no budget.
I assume he'll fix it soon.
>>63596440
I thought he had an original film reel and lifted it from that? Or did he recreate that shot from memory by shopping in any old eyebrows because eyebrows were meant to be there?
These are pretty good tbqh familia, there's a huge improvement coming for ROTJ soon as well.
>>63596533
This is how Harmy made the Despecialized Edition
You gotta admire this level of dedication and autism

>>63596815
Oh goddammit I just downloaded the RotJ one
>>63596894
That's okay anon, it's still soon(tm) there isn't an exact date. But yes, ROTJ is currently the worst of the three.
>>63596908
Eh, I'm just watching them again before the new one is out. I'm expecting to be hugely disappointed by it that it'll turn me off the movies for another few years like Sith did.
And this time I don't have the EU to fall back on, I might be fucked
>>63595902
This.
>>63596883
I love it when autists use their powers for good
If you go to /r/fullmoviesongoogle they have the despecialized versions available for download. I just watched them and it was my first time watching Star Wars, glad I didn't see the CG shitshow that Lucas turned it in to.
>>63597256
>If you go to /r/fullmoviesongoogle
I'm a big boy and I know how to use torrent sites without reddit thank you very much
>thought I had seen the original unedited Star Wars movies
>turns out the movies I saw as a kid were the 90s special editions with added CGI
>mfw
I mean, some of the CGI should had given it away for me, but I was too young to realize what was out of place. The only thing I remember really standing out was the new singing CGI cartoon cockroach at Jabba's palace, but even then I didn't know it was a new addition.
My dad who grew up with star wars just saw the newest blu ray version of return of the jedi broadcast on TV the other week
he just laughed when hayden showed up at the end
>>63597256
>watching a bitstarved lossy transcode nearest neighbour 360p downscale of a fan remaster you found on reddit and unironically thinking it's better than the bluray.
I don't mean to alarm you anon but you're the dumbest poster on /tv/ right now and that's coming from and Australian.
>>63595599
ROTJ end music, and I guess the Jabba scene
>>63595599
Literally just the ROTJ end music
But not the added CGI planet celebration shots
Also R2 being re-colored blue in space shots, because that's really just fixing an error as opposed to changing something for no good reason
>>63595599
I liked the part where the funny robot hit another robot when luke and obi wan entered mos eisley
>>63595628
That's not the problem, you wooley. It's the clunky Lucas dialogue shoehorned into a previously great scene. "We have a new enemy, Luke Skywalker" became "We have a new enemy. The young Rebel who destroyed the Death Star, I believe he is the son of Anakin Skywalker." And Vader's "Yes, my Master" became "How is this possible?"
Lucas, I believe, became genuinely jealous of the acclaim Kasdan and Kershner got for Empire and needed to assert his primacy.
>>63595599
>Jub Nub removal
>Sheev change in ep 5
>Boba Fett voice change
>Luke's scream removal in ep5
>pic related
>>63597411
Possibly, but we were looking for something to watch after the fight. Quality was fine, better than I expected for something off of Reddit.
