I saw this film about half a dozen times in IMAX in Palisades NY during its run and that screen is absolutely HUGE and it was AWESOME. The soundtrack was blisteringly awesome. It was legit amazing.

Nah nah nah, it’s fire! Koo nee tang! *plays song in my head*

This was a great collection tour. Found plenty to add to my watch list. Thanks.

Good synopsis of the 2... no 3... No 4 Different versions of the films. I grew up with the video tapes, and can really appreciate the advancements Lucas did for sci-fi with the original trilogy. That said, I wish so much that they would make a final fan cut of the films. Take out Jabba from IV, take out some of the CGI Scenes that do nothing to the story, but keep the updated space battle CGI elements. Or like with Empire keep the updated cgi backdrops in cloud city... And for Golly sake get that singing scene out of Return of the Jedi and put the original back in. That would be the best of both worlds taming down the 'Special Editions' to only scenes that benefit not ones that just add now dated flash.

You totally overlooked us 80's and 90's kids at the 12 minute mark, you didn't say the VHS home video tapes when mentioning the DVD's ;-) I was born in the early 80's, and my Star Wars was the 3 VHS box set where George Lucas started each film with a 10ish minute long interview talking about the movies. That was the original versions outside of A New Hope getting the Episode IV treatment in the scroll... And it was cropped to hell... But that's my Star Wars lol.

14:29 how is it not the same? The only way to really preserve games is digital. We need to push back agajnst DRM.

I agree. I do, for the most part curate my collection. However, I have 951 dvds and 1309 vhs. And there might only be a handful I could get rid off. Great video. Thanks for sharing.

It’s amazing to see why Star Wars was so ground breaking, to see why it won awards.

How aren't the bonus disc's the original versions? What's been changed? Thanks

Could be because it hard to follow ,let’s use the popular anime that is turning 10 years on 2025 one punch man ,people enjoy that show cause of saitama I’m curious brave productions if you heard about that series

I don't mind the changes to Cloud City because it just replaced a fakey looking background with a less fakey looking background. But adding scenes to the original Star Wars makes those scenes stand out as additions after the fact.

Another classic that is worth owning I funny enough watched this movie than the meh remake everyone forgot from last year

Although i appreciate all the restoration work being done, why has no one bothered to restore the deleted scenes? Such as Luke and his friends at Toshi Station? Or Luke building his lightsaber in ROTJ?

The 4K-x versions are very good, but I like the look of Harmy's better. Both are better than the adulterated official versions.

I just wanna watch the OT with none of these childish BS changes

The special editions are the movies deal with it 😂

Thanks for zooming in that far, I almost understood what was happening

Foot Clan vs Scraptors

It’s not just games. It’s the saves too. Ps5 doesn’t let you save game files on usb anymore. Everything is becoming monthly payments

You got that thrash Kendrick album 😅

I’ll never get digital. Only thing that sucks about phsycial is disc rot. But that’s it.

GREEDO DIDN'T SHOOT

HOTSHOT, JETFIRE, VECTOR PRIME, LANDMINE, SCATTERSHOT, OPTIMUS PRIME, TRANSFORM AND ROLL OUT!

Hi there. I personally don’t think it’s entirely as bad as you suggest. I’ve used Topaz for a few years on and off, and seen the various things it can and can’t do, and come to understand that it’s just a tool like any other filter or tool in your kit. I think unfortunately people in the industry go way too far with it, and it is indeed being used in entirely rushed ways. Should it be used for restoration? Sure it can, but they have a long way to go in learning how to use it well. For me, AI should not be used as a replacement for an original source, but as a tool to refine/master it for viewing. One should always use the best source possible, and if it’s film then a 4K or higher scan is the only appropriate place to start. Studios don’t typically want to spend the time really breaking down a film into individual shots to create perfectly calibrated settings for each scene in the film, so you get a kind of average setting that can be applied to the whole film. This means some shots are rendered at far too high strength creating artefacts that could also be avoided by at least identifying such scenes and re-rendering them on an individual basis. Alas, these aren’t fan restorations, and things fall through the cracks. I think at the moment in film restoration they are overindulgent with their new toy. Sometimes I wonder if they even A/B results or experiment with the settings at all. When it comes to a serious, drawn out and carefully executed restoration though, AI certainly can be useful. It’s rather interesting what can be achieved on mattes for example. I upscaled a 35mm restoration of SW-E6 a while back and the matte of Jabbas Palace on Tatooine looked looked far more detailed than the original 4K restoration. I was also rather happy with the extra detail on the Death Star, both of which looked blurrier originally. My method is simply keep the upscale as minimal as possible, basically only enough to notice a slight uptick in detail, and apply a grain plate after the upscale. I only want to smooth out unwanted artefacts and reduce a little of the film grain from a 35mm scan, which to some degree is necessary for television viewing, but I want to see as much natural grain and detail as possible. I totally agree about how it’s being used though, especially James Cameron and such, I miss 80’s/90’s Jim. He created some of the best blockbusters of all time but he’s lost his love for celluloid film I fear, and drunk the digital cool aid. Sorry for the length and random tangents of this comment, but it’s kind complicated to discuss. Great video btw, I agree with most of your comments wholeheartedly!

Proud to own this edition on Blu ray

Howard The Duck is still his nr.1 masterpiece.

I actually really like this idea. Solid video man. Like why own shelfs and shelfs of movies if you aren't gonna watch them at all in a year or just watch one time?

Also I find it interesting in February RUclips is gonna 20 years old

To think this film is turning 30 years old

Very nice collection, I dig it quite a bit! Have you seen 'Lock stock and two smoking barrels' and Snatch? If not, highly recommend them. Snatch has a nice 4k version as well.

I remember when I was 11 watching the matrix for the first time, of course I loved it.

Good video. Having studied media & film subjects even into university, id never thought about ranking every movie I watched during those lessons till now.

Fun fact about me, I was born the same year Mulan came out.

Oooo, I’ve been looking forward to this For me, the most fond movie I watched was the ring and an a Ouija movie and that was the same class in high school

😮😮😮

No but for real, could any of those eliminations be considered a war crime??? They were all committed only against it's enemy, and mostly in self defense

You forgot about every scene with Hound.

I personally prefer the original, unaltered version. I will grant that the shine-ups do improve the overall look of some of the scenes, but the movie was not broken in the first place. it did not need this "fix"

You forgot about the scene when Lockdown killed TJ Miller

*Han shoots only.

Heat is a mandatory to watch it once a year for me also Danny Trejo is in the film too always great to see certain actor's younger because most people would miss them when watching any film because they only know what they look like now instead of what they looked like in years past

I don't see a difference. Both equally unsettling 😂

Remastered and Remakes are two completely different things although it is common to get them mixed up. In your video you bring up an analogy comparing Resident evil 4 Original to Resident Evil 4 Remake But the language you use makes it seem like you think RE4 Remake Remake is a simple Remaster. 14:00 Remasters All use similar content to produce their final product, aka Resident evil 4 original for the PC or Game Cube or Ps2 Could all be considered different remasters. Remakes May use similar Thoughts and ideas but they're always built from scratch. Resident evil four remake rebuilds the game from scratch and doesn't reuse any code or assets it's just using similar characters And ideas. It would be like if someone remade Star Wars episode 4 a New hope with new actors Remaking the film from scratch. You wouldn't call this remake of episode 4 a simple remaster. It's a pretty simple concept But it contributes greatly to people's Misunderstanding of expectations when a new Movie or game is announced whether or not it's going to be a remake or remaster. People end up disappointed or they don't understand that a game is built entirely from scratch and doesn't use any old code.

Transformers prime is peak

what we (or i if nobody cares) really need now is better archival disc to be used as the standard, ensuring a rot-free, skipping-free, freezing-free permanent ownership. i will not buy a 4K unless its combo pack. 😢

The original UK marvel transformers comics dealt with a lot of this. Much more horrifying than the US one too lol

It works

"Star Wars fans were happy" with Video Games TV yes, the movies.....yeah, no. I am a prequel lover, and I will tell you all right now, there is a reason why I kept my love for the prequels to myself back before Disney got the series, because the hate the prequels got WAS MASSIVE (some of the hate justified, some of it not) you could not go anywhere on the internet without seeing someone shit on the prequels. The sequels just confirm this is a weird endless vicious cycle of hatred. First people hate the prequels and say George Lucas destroyed his own legacy, and now people say Disney destroyed his legacy...next thing you know, Universal will buy Star Wars from Disney and make a threequel trilogy, and people will come out and say they liked the Sequels from Disney (some being genuinely, some just saying it...because) while they will then trash on said Threequels (....I don't actually think Universal will try buying Star Wars from Disney, I'm just using that as an example). Like seriously, you all now act like Disney buying Star Wars was the worst thing ever, and yet, when this announcement was first made, people were genuinely hyped. God, the hypocrisy from Star Wars fans (not all, though) is insane. You all act like everything was fine before Disney bought Star Wars, when in reality....no, it wasn't. In the realm of games and show maybe, but in terms of the movies, it wasn't.

Also it’s to show stuff that companies/streaming want to forget that it existed because of reasons ,you would only watch collect you like so you can either show it to a new generation of people

It’s awesome to rewatch this especially showing it to a new generations of kids who may not have heard it
