You don't need to tell me that!
I've contacted Fox, I'm expecting them to just say send it back.

Has anyone noticed any more changes?

Maybe it's just me as I havent seen it for a while and the last time I watched them it was the original theatrical cuts on the SE Dvd.

But in Episode 4 when Han shoots the garbage room. The alarm is slightly different or lower tone?

And when they were in there and the monster comes up, the eye is different, but I think that was changed before.


Could someone please make ALL the changes in scenes if its minor or not, I don't care even if theres slight adjustments with the sounds/audio/sound effects e.i Obi call etc.

I would like to know while watching them please.

I really enjoyed Episode 4, but I guess the transfer could be better but it was still nice to see how it looks on HD. About to watch Empire Strikes Back.

Not too many changes to the actual BDs apart from the obvious ones such as Bens call and Vaders No! Rocks infront of R2 on Tatooine the bigger door on Jabbas palace a Dug in jabbas palace and the blinking ewok. Everything is pretty much the same as the '04 DVDs

Heres a great list of things that have changed over the years

There's a pretty thorough summary at http://www.dvdactive.com/editorial/a...-part-one.html, covering both visual and audio changes (and it links to three more pages).

That should cover most of it!

Default ROTS audio

has anyone noticed that the audio on ROTS is a little light on LFE effects?

I have watched TPM, AOTC and they are really bass heavy.

I dont have any of the old versions but so cant check this. But in Empire Strikes back, there is a scene where Chewbacca is in a room looking for a smashed up C3P0 and there is a furnace in the room. The sparks coming out of the furnace look really digital as if added in. Could anyone check or know if its a new addition?

I'm pretty sure they're new effects. I can post some DVD captures if you'd like to see them?

Default The Making Of Star Wars and other Docs

Hi All

Just wondering if anyone else has the same problem on the bonus documentary disc as I have: When watching the making of star wars, ESB, Classic Creatures and the anatomy of a dewback, the picture is only about a sixth of the screen, almost the size of a pip commentary. All the other docs and movies plays perfectly. I know this set comes from the UK for distribution where I am...

Babyinateacup are they SD special features? Maybe your BD player or television is displaying them at their normal resolution?

Yeah i was impressed too it had some real wow moments i remember noticing detail on the white stone walls of the buildings in Mos Eisley.I'm watching Empire next but not for a week or so because i've got to send it back for a replacement tomorrow for the ripped booklet.Anyone think the rear sound was weak? maybe ive got to reduce my front speakers a bit so i can hear the rear ones more.

If it's Amazon, keep your set until the new one arrives. That's what I usually do as you have 30 days to return the original item. Plus you might get a damaged case so you can swap them over just in case.

Just finished Attack of the Clones. Much better movie than I felt it was nearly 10 years ago. Not sure why but everything I disliked about it I found kind of tolerable this time around, and had a blast with the rest of it. Watching it immediately after Episode I made me appreciate Lucas's Palpatine plotting more than I have before.

Transfer is good. The clone wars look unbelievable and the soundtrack is a barnstormer.

One thing I did notice, and maybe somebody can confirm this.... The humans riding CG creatures effects looked much, much better than the dozen or so times I've seen this film before. A touch up??

No it's Tesco i think it has to go back before you get a replacement.
