Today Lucasfilm officially announced the Blu-rays of Star Wars, and had a trailer to show how awesome it looked.
Or not. Its the same transfer as the DVD, every flaw right out in the open here on the trailer.
They’ve had 6 years to fix this kind of stuff back (this one is a brightness adjustment!), but it looks like they haven’t touched it. Lazy Lucas, was Lazy.
AUGUST 2011 UPDATE: Looks like this has been fixed for the final release, along with several other things. There are still many glaring mistakes however.

Indeed. I’d punch my monitor at seeing that nonsense again,
but I just bought it a few hours ago. :p
So did you buy a new monitor too?
To be fair, it IS possible that they just haven’t worked on the OT yet, but they’ve had over 6 years, if they haven’t done it by now, are they going to do it in the next 6 months? And if the trailer here is using old footage, why do that, or at least pick footage for the trailer you’ve already redone, if they’re redoing them at all.
