They finally removed the awful matte lines in the rancor scene. PLus they changed the colour of the lighting and the difference in focus. Judging by the screenshots it look a little better. I;m getting my DVD's tomorrow, I'll check that scene first! And then ANH. I can only hope GL didn't make anymore changes to my beloved ESB... that scene with Vader going to his shuttle was sooooo obsolete...
he did, there is new dialogue
Vader
What is thy bidding, my master?
The Emperor
There is a great disturbance in the force.
Vader
I have felt it.
The Emperor
We have a new enemy, the young rebel who destroyed the death star. I have no doubt this boy is the offspring of Anakin Skywalker.
Vader
How is that possible?
The Emperor
Search your feelings Lord Vader. You will know it to be true. He could destroy us.
Vader
He's just a boy. Obi-Wan can no longer help him.
The Emperor
The Force is strong with him. The son of Skywalker must not become a jedi.
Vader
If he could be turned, he could be a powerful ally.
The Emperor
Yesssss. He would be a great asset. Can it be done?
Vader
He will join us or die, master.
OK I just got done watching ANH on DVD.
Before I say the first thought that came to my mind, it should be noted that I have only seen these movies in their original theatrical form and Ive never seen the Special Editions.
Now I started watching ANH and the first and actually the last thought I
had at the end was
😑 Wheres my Star Wars? crybaby
I know alot of you guys have discussed this to death but for me whos watched this movie the same way for 27 years now it was just such a shock. 🤨
The color was beautiful to be sure, but the CGI was just wrong, wrong wrong. And the Han/Greedo scene...well just crybaby.
I may have to ease into the other 2 slowly I think. 😖
The bonus disk is KILLER tho. ✅
AAAARGGHH!!!!!! Why the hell did GL place Hayden at the end of ROTJ?!?!?! Hello?!?!?! For continuity sake? Bull! There's no logic in it. I mean why not place Ewan in there as well?!?! Sheesh... I don't really see the point in changing the original actor.
It's understood He's the same Anakin in the prequels. GL, your audiences are not that dumb for you to point it out.

Anakin Skywalker died before he became Darth Vader, which would be the 21-23 year old version of himself. Not the elder Jedi in the form of Sebastian Shaw, who never existed.
It makes perfect sense.

See, that there is the scene from the movie...now let me get a pic of the menu when it is blue to show you a comparison for those color blind people out there...
The colour blind people are the ones who think that is green, and are also dumb enough to think that they put a green sabre in there.
People should learn to observe properly rather than jumping to conclusions in this odd urge to make hasty criticisms that people seem to have these days.
It is green. It is not the usual lightsaber green color, but it is 100% (if u don't count the white) green, not blue. I don't undertsand your argument for it being blu in that shot Ush. What has this to do with people seeing multiple purple lightsabers (I've never heard of this untill u mentioned it) in AOTC?

In the figurative sense, Anakin is dead, which gave birth to Darth Vader. That's what I was implying.
Oh yeah, I just finished ESB. The overall quality of Episode 5 is double that of ANH. The sound track especially, because it's devoid of the 1 channel soundtracks that apparently couldn't be cleaned up. The picture was just incredible, expecially all of Hoth. The colors literally jumped off of the screen, and coupled with the audio..mm mm mmm. I'm lovin' it.
Kind of odd to hear Temuera Morrison doing the voice of Jango Fett, and it still has Clive Revell credited as the voice of the Emporer? Did Ian McDiarmid not do both the voice and new Emporer hologram? If so, Lucas forgot to amend the credits for the 1997 SE of ESB.
P.S. No green sabres in ANH. At first, it looks white. Of course, only green sabre is Luke's retooled sabre in ROTJ. The green flashes were in ANH, where as there were bright yellow/faint white flashes in ESB during Vader vs Luke in the CFC.
Originally posted by fintiYep, I forget which thread, but I and a few others discussed this. Since Vader obviously was looking for Luke in the beginning, and he appears clueless now, it'd be interesting to see if any of this ties into Episode III, which it just might...
with the new added lines between The Emperor and Vader in ESB I got the impression that Vader maybe had an agenda of his own going on.
What that agenda might be I dont now but one can only speculate that he maybe prepared to overthrow the emperor

*puts on referees shirt*
Upon furthur review, Luke's lightsaber is inded green. Fast forward to the scene after Alderaan is blown up, and shows Luke training before Obi Wan feels faint, and sits down. It's green, after the Dejarik cut scene, the his lightsaber is then a very faint green/white, followed by a light blue saber.
The only possible explanation is that Obi Wan allowed him to train with his lightsaber at times. Or, Lucas could have just overlooked the entire thing. It may be explained in the audio commentary, which I'll get to later this week.
