Title: At last - the originals on DVD.....
Product review: After reading the reviews, I was a bit sketchy about the fact that the original versions were simply going to be the 1994 Laserdisc masters - and yes there are a couple of problems to watch out for. 1) In really bright moments these versions 'clip' - which in the visual digital realm means the screen goes white for a split second - not ideal and a bit wearing on the eye. 2) The sound is a bit funny in bits - especially in Star Wars. Empire and ROTJ are a bit better but there is some sort of echoey slapback that occurs sometimes and the compression drags some stuff up to the front of the mix that really shouldn't be there.Apart from that, the films look and sound great.All that said - it is awesome to finally have the original, untarnished versions on DVD and now that I have them (I was given them as a gift) I am very pleased indeed.
