Date Edit Was Released: 19 JAN 2008
Original Runtime: 121 minutes
New Runtime: 127 minutes

List of changes:

2 - The crawl appears slightly earlier now, as it did pre ANH, so it appears at the correct music cue that WilliamsÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½ intended, and how I remember it.
4 - Tatooine now rotates slightly as the ships fly overhead
5 - Re-coloured all lasers
10 - Colour correction of the whole film to remove the blue tint. The Tantive IVÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s walls are now white.
11 - Re-coloured R2Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½s dome lights throughout the movie so they match closer to the rest of the saga. The front light now blinks from red to blue.
14 - Added blast flashes to the troopers where they are hit
18 - Added blinking lights to VaderÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s chest plate
19 - VaderÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s eyes re-coloured to remove the red tint.
27 - When the imperial commander says Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½hold your fireÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½ the trajectory of the escape pod has been changed so it is heading downwards and away from the ship instead or just heading straight which caused a continuity error in the next shot as we see the underbelly of the stardestroyer , which means it was heading downwards.
38 - Fixed R2Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½s eye dome in the shot inside the sandcrawler where it looks like you can see Kenny Baker inside.
39 - Inside the sandcrawler 3POÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s eyes blink as he stands. Fixed
42 - Removed a wire visible coming out of 3POÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s neck while Owen talks to him at the sale
45 - Added the missing glow from R2Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½s holo light in the garage.
46 - Brightened & desiderated the sunset scene.
52 - In the shot where the Tusken raiders see LukeÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s speeder travelling through the canyon the speeder suddenly seems to speed up towards the end and looks unnatural. Recomposited the speeder to fix this.
53 - Re-coloured the sky in some shots when Ben rescues Luke so it is more blue instead of very grey/ white, which it isnÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½t in the shot where Ben scares the Tusken raiders.
54 - Smoothed the jump cut where Luke ignites the sabre in Obi-WanÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s hut
55 - Added the missing ornament on BenÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s table in the shot of LeiaÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s hologram.
57 - Re-edited the whole Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½BenÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s HomeÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½ not only to fix the continuity errors but also because the conversation about the force and LukeÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s father is now all together and flows better instead of being split into 2 separate conversations. It now starts off with the viewing of the hologram and fixes the continuity problems.
61 - Completely removed the Ronto/ Jawa sequence.
62 - Removed the probe droid hit but the worker droid.
63 - Removed both Rontos from the checkpoint scene.
64 - Removed the probe droid from this scene also
67 - Added facial movements to some cantina creatures.
68 - In the shot where you see Ponda BabbaÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s severed arm I have removed the blood & replaced the hand with the hoof like one we see him with in other shots.
69 -More facial movements & blinks for Greedo
71 - Removed the Jabba scene
75 Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½ Slightly re-edited the docking bay shootout to fix some continuity issues
76 - Fixed the issues with Hans Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½wobblyÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½ wrist as he fires
78 - Added the blue glow back to the Falcons engines.
79 - As the falcon escapes Tatooine it now actually does some manoeuvres instead of Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½listing lazily to the leftÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½
80 - New Alderaan for all the viewscreen shots
81 - New Alderaan explosion
82 - Re-rotoscoped all lightsabres and fixed LukeÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s green & wobbly sabre during the training session.
86 - Added the colour to the remotes laser that was missing from the 2004 DVDÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s
87 - In the scene where Vader says Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½I told you she would neverÃ¢ï¿½Â¦.Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½ he gestures after he has stopped talking. This has been fixed.
88 - More asteroids when the Falcon reaches the Alderaan system
90 - Removed the blue screen pole that is visible as the Falcon enters the docking bay and the girder crane in the top left which isnÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½t there when you see the interior of the docking bay
94 - The Death StarÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s interiors are now metallic grey instead of the horrible blue.
99 - New tractor beam matte shots.
104 - Removed the visible power cable from the lightsabre up BenÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s sleeve
107 Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½ Removed the bar holding R2Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½s legs in place when the droids head for the falcon
113 - Brand new explosions for TIES in this sequence
117 - Added the Hyperspace wormhole to the cockpit sequence.
119 - In the shot of the Falcon as it flies over the trees on Yavin IV the clouds have been changed to matched the rest of the sequence. IÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½ve also added the falcons shadow on the trees as it flies over.
122 - New Death Star schematics.
132 - Re-edited all Rebel command centre shots to fix issues where the image has been flipped (you can tell because 3POÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s dent on his head keeps swapping sides) Also Leia keeps changing position.
134 - Ships engines are now again red and not pink.
138 - The rebel command centre table now includes holograms
140 - The window at the back of VaderÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s cockpit has been blacked out because there should be no window.
144 - When R2 Is hit the next shot you can see no smoke or damage through LukeÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s cockpit window. This has been fixed
148 - When Red Leader is killed IÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½ve you see an explosion but nothing makes it. IÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½ve added the x-wing hitting the surface.
149 - Removed all of the Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½swinging TIES2 seen in the rear cockpit windows. The TIEs now more naturally according to the scene
155 - Chewie now gets a medal

There are also some other minor fixes that arenÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½t listed, mainly because i have lost track of exactly how much has been done.


New 5.1 audio mix track with reversed surround channels fixed & a greater surround experience. The imperial march has now been added in places. Includes mainly a remixed 2004 DVD 5.1 audio track with elements of the BelbucusÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½ restored monomix (many thanks Belbucus), laserdisc 5.1 audio, german 2004 5.1 mix, on set audio and new elements



When Luke first seeÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s the holo message in the garage scene LeiaÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½help me obi-wan..Ã¢ï¿½ï¿½ lines have now been synced to what you see on screen. It can also be heard throughout this scene and not just when we see the hologram as originally.



Original BeruÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s voice dub from the monomix . Now sounds more natural than the one we have become use to.


The lightsabres now have a subwoofer channel to give extra depth

FaneditorÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s comment:

I have to admit that i have always liked the special editions of the original trilogy, with a few minor niggles of course, so i was so excited when the 2004 DVD release was announced. I waited in line at midnight, got my box set and raced home to watch them. switched on my cinema system (luckily the neighbours were away) , loaded the DVD and prepared to be blown away. Then the film started and my face dropped. What the hell have they done to the surround mix? OMG LukeÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s saber is green & DarthÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s is pink. I thought these editions would have been better than my old VHS ones. Yes the picture quality is far superior but the new faults just plain ruined them for me. So I decided that the original trilogy DVDÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½s need fixing but just never got round to doing it until i was amazed by the ADigitalMan/ Darth Editous Hybrid DVD . I loved it so much i wanted to make my own

Thanks for this, been waiting :-)
Thanks boon, I dunno how to use newsgroups, So I'm very glad you upped this here at the bay. This is the NTSC version, yeah? I hope so, as I'm in the states and that's how we roll over here. Adywan we love you.
THIS WAS WICKED! Unbelivible job man! What do you do on your spare time :P
This is great thanks.. BUT why is this cut different from the .avi file? Specifically so far in the Cantina the severed hoof is back to being a hand. Have to watch for other differences.
i cant WAIT for what u might do to empire strikes back,, suggestion though! try not to remove any of the classic scenes like u did in a new hope with the jabba the hutt scene : /
three moons! what about the song "binary sunset"
I'm not sure changing the speed of the lightsaber fights is the right thing to do. That is how they were meant to be filmed. No offence meant as this is clearly a labour of love but you shouldn't alter certain scenes.

"71 - Removed the Jabba scene"

This is part of the story and explains why Jabba the Hut wants Solo in Empire Strikes Back. That should be in this version? I think so.
Just to add, don't you think you went a bit over the top with the changes? Surely the mistakes - if you want to call them that - are part of the original version or even the 1990s CGI improved version? If you're actually changing scenes, adding new effects then that is a bit wrong as the film wasn't meant to look the way you think it's meant to look. I can understand colour grading alterations and sound improvement but actually changing scenes to suit your vision of how Star Wars should be is, with respect, wrong. Having said that, you're clearly a huge Star Wars fan but even huge fans should respect the original version and not seek to make endless changes to to it. I'm not quite sure what the point of this edit is except to show how skilled you are with editing software!
"37 - Added a battle droid to the scrap inside the Sandcrawler."

That's a classic example of what I'm talking about. Why would you want to add something which wasn't meant to be there in the first place????
Wow, this really blows me away!
Thank you so much for this very special Edition :)
Is this in full hd? what resolution is this? if it isnt in hd can you tell me how to convert it to full 1080p HD?
@lordjams: you can, of course, convert this into 1080p amazing TruDef HD killer quality, what you need to do is:

1) Eat six pounds of grounded beef (10% fat or more)
2) Drink six bottles of destilled water
3) Take a dump in a bucket
4) Convert this to DVD with Nero and burn it (MUST be dual-layer)
5) Put the DVD in the bucket (colored side should face down), and press it towards the bottom
6) Start eating
7) Once you get to the bottom, you will find that the DVD is no longer a DVD, it has been turned into a Blu-Ray disc.

Now, if you want to convert it into 3D, too, you'll have to do some extras, if you want, I can tell you, but I should warn you that it involves slaughtering three baby lambs. Magic doesn't come cheap, you know!
George Lucas' special effects team don't have a clue. The CGI bit in Jaba's palace was like Fraggle F+++in Rock. CGI's best for inanimate stuff. Unless it's motion captured. Just my opinion.
Look forward to see this!
If Adywan would have had access to never before seen footage, then I might have wanted to download this. But morons starting to edit what pros already have perfected, belong in psychiatric ward, diagnosed as being infant megalomanic.

If you were into porn instead, IÂ´ll bet you would fanedit "Deep Throat" thus relieving Linda Lovelace from her duties and you yourself replacing her. But that movie !!!, I would not download either...

But I should say, I do NOT doubt the skills you people possess, dealing in theese strange genres. ItÂ´s not very easy editing even your own footage... Why donÂ´t you try and shoot your own movie instead? New stuff I like!!! But not people trying to become from what others performed.
Mutegrill and you other versions that dont get this edit can you just die, what adywan did in this release is that he removed and/or edited and/or animated the little things us star wars-fans always hated in the movies, he made this movie from a piece of coal into a diamond of high standard, if you dont love this edit your just full osf shit and dont know what you are talking about..............
Adywan, you are amazing!!! This is the most awesome fan-edit I've ever seen! I HOPE you are making extended versions with the new availabe deleted scenes from the blu-ray. Ive done extended prequils, but Im a novice at it & I knew I couldn't make the unfinished scenes now available work but from what Im seeing here, you more then have the ability! Outstanding work my friend!!! My new favorite version of ANH!
Does this have the menu?
