The Spirited 11th Hour ...

Those are some of the world's busiest soundstages. My guess is they will continue to eat into Citywalk.

Production can be moved elsewhere, especially when it can be replaced by money minting square footage like Diagon Alley. Putting Diagon where WaterWorld is now would mean removing a considerable chunk of CityWalk and reconfiguring their entire entrance area.

Most home hardware is processor based and garbage as a rule while most quality enterprise and carrier equipment is ASIC based.

Home networks with very high connection speeds should consider enterprise gear to provide security and low latency packet engines.

That's why my home gateway was replaced with a Cisco 3800 series router long ago.

That IS cool - Star Wars as it was first seen without George's questionable re-edits.

Note the site is suffering the Slashdot effect at the moment!

so.. untouched.. with no BS of young anakin during "the force" ?
old effects, no traces of jar jar?

I believe that is the end point that all of us are trying to make. All the price increases, all the cuts, all of it comes back to that one undeniable key to the kingdom: Make every guest feel special.

Thats whats lost.

Bingo! Read both of your post and this is exactly my thoughts, I always felt special by just being there. Sadly that is gone

None of those things were part of the New Hope alterations

Anyone else able to see it? I get a 503 error.

Either they're overwhelmed with viewers or that restoration may have been pulled down pretty quickly...

I just bought an Asus RT-AC88U. This is now the brains of my home network and it is fantastic.

sorry, the link was down when I tried to access it. I was expecting to see the entire first cut of the trilogy restored, not only A NEW HOPE.

same issue.

I have the second of the series (N66U, aka the black knight) most reliable router I've ever had in my whole experience from using consumer, basic 3com and entry cisco ones.

Well if you're interested in other restoration cuts, go check out the Despecialized Editions

.... (they claim) its a 25 GB file*. Some people found some original prints of the film, scanned them at 1080p. The site is woefully overloaded.


(*Bootlegging and Internet Piracy is bad, kids. I've also bought this on VHS twice and DVD once.)

Lucasfilm is leaving A LOT of money on the table here.

Upon further review? Those people are doing the lord's work.

Based on the youtube videos, it looks more natural then the Special Edition Blu-Ray, where they turned the saturation to 11.

WAIT. I've got it.

Wanna make a small mint?

Want people to adopt a 4K standard?

Make the 1977 original print of Star Wars the first 4K release. Make it limited edition and charge $50.

Some additions:

• All three OT films in one Boxset with digital copies
• No limited edition, instead have a special timed exclusive period where the Boxset comes with a Mondo print and those who buy in get it a month earlier than the general public.
• High quality packaging. Look to the Criterion Collection and South Korea's Plain Archive as an example.
