If I decide to upgrade, I'll just put the discs into my existing SW Saga collection.

I’m too wondering if they are final as they are absolutely awful .

They are just using the same artwork as last years Blu-Ray re-releases so I wouldn’t count on anything changing.

I now agree with this, but seeing it in the theater as a young teen I was just the right age to think Yoda with a lightsaber was the coolest thing ever.

Before you listen to what bill says, remember that he thinks The Phantom Menace is a better movie than this. That's right he's a fan of Jar Jar Binks.

Because it is a better movie, with or without Jar Jar.

Agreed. AOTC is horrible. TPM isn't much better but it is better.

[XavierTheaterPotato]

Jar Jar isn't exactly the Reason why folks would hate TPM, He contributes but he is not the Sole Reason. That Said, AOTC is miles, miles worse.

I agree. AOTC imo is easily the worst SW film.

I was referring to the technical part of the review. I quite like the movie

Does the 4K version have the re-structured editing at the end like the 2011 BD release?

Man, it's pretty eye-popping how severely and vehemently Bill's opinion on the film has changed since its original release back in 2002 -- he throws massive bit$h salt all over it in his new 4K review, compared to his earlier take on the movie:

To be fair, I think that's pretty common for a lot of people. My initial reactions to both Episode I and II were a bit more positive than how I came to think of them after a bit of time and a few more viewings. I distinctly remember going to see Episode II and immediately thinking it was a big improvement after my Episode I disappointment had long settled in. A few years later and reevaluating them, I actually thought the movie was in a lot of ways worse. To this day, I flip-flop over which of the two is my least favorite Star Wars movie.

Yeah, as far as I can tell, Disney used the exact digital masters for all three prequel films that were used for the Blu-Ray editions, then upscaled them and regraded them in HDR. Episode I still has the DNR, and Episode II still has the teal tint and those re-edited scenes (the Coruscant chase sequence towards the beginning also has a couple of editing tweaks).

[bud_brigman]

Wanted to ask Geoff: This and Ep III were shot digitally in 1080p, as I understand it. Can this be “true” 4K? If it worth it for the HDR?

[grodd]

Never had a problem with Jar Jar. Still love em.

[Hardback247]

Why do the editing changes in AOTC matter so much? Why are they such a big deal?
