The ambitious fan edit of the first Star Wars film, toned down to please some 'purists.'

Inspired by the ADigitalMan/Darth Editous Hybrid fan edit, Adywan decided to make his own edit based on the 2004 DVD.
This version of Revisited is unique in that Adywan went out of his way to edit back some scenes to see if people enjoyed it more.

Great audio/picture quality for a DVD, worth grabbing until the 720p version comes out.
The PURIST version takes out much of what was out of place in the original Revisited and crafts a wonderful should-be-SE. I'd go even more purist than Ady did, but this is ace nonetheless.

I'll add my kudos to the long list of accolades this Fan Edit has received. I have both the 'original' and 'purist' versions and love both, but prefer the purist edition as I don't like to see shots or music from later films incorporated into earlier works. However, these are an absolute MUST own. The best thing I can say about the film is that Adywan's edit made me feel almost as if I was watching Star Wars for the first time. Everything seemed so fresh -- especially the effects work during the escape from the Death Star and the final battle which is exhilarating. I'm counting the days until the release of Empire: Revisited. The Force is strong with this one!

I LOVE this edit of Star Wars EP IV. Adywan has made reality the childhood memories of Star Wars that so many of us have. This is what I remember Star Wars looking and feeling like. Yes, it is augmented, but these were the correct augmentations that should have been the 'Special Edition', and if you're downloading this, that's the reason why you're getting it.
Best video quality of any DVD edit I've seen. Clear, Crisp, Accurate. 10/10
Audio: Flawless. 10/10
Narrative: I do wish the jabba scene was included in the movie [not included on either editions], but that doesn't detract from the narrative) 10/10
Enjoyment: STAR WARS as you remembered it in your jammies with home-made lightsaber, 'VWOOSH'! 10/10
Perfect 10!
wish list for the 720p edition. Please add an option to watch the movie either purist or fully Adywan-ed, also with or without the jabba scene if desired.

Oh yeah if you didn’t know, this has an IFDB page now.
This was good stuff man. I’m a fan of ANHR so it follows that I verily enjoyed this. Editing was top notch. As far as the changes specific to the Purist Edition… I enjoyed the way the Obi-Wan Hut scene was edited in ANHR more. And I couldn’t tell what the other changes were, I ain’t that hardcore into this movie. So I prefer good ol’ Revisited. But honestly I could pop in either version and it’s 1:1 the same enjoyment.
A/V Quality - 10

Enjoyment - 10 (OUT 10, SE 7)

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 Luke’s saber is green & Darth’s 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 DVD’s 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

At the moment its taking longer than i had anticipated, but i thought i would let you all know what changes to expect when it is finished. Some of the effects enhancements have been done to match closer to the prequel trilogy. For the source i have used the 2004 PAL Retail DVD and for some sequences the HDTV 1080p x264 release ( if only this had come out when i first started this release).

fixed so far:

VIDEO…

1 - Star Wars Logo: originally it receded way too quickly so this has been slowed down to match the speed in the rest of the saga.
2 - The crawl appears slightly earlier now, as it did pre ANH, so it appears at the correct music cue that Williams’ intended, and how I remember it.
3 - As the camera pans down to Tatooine you now see the 3 moons instead of just 2
4 - Tatooine now rotates slightly as the ships fly overhead
5 - Re-coloured all lasers
6 - Removed the horrible blue hazing as the stardestroyers engine come into view
7 - Changed the explosion as the Tantive IV is hit to remove a lot of the smoke.
8 - Added a jerk to the motion of the Tantive IV as it is hit
9 - Speeded up the star field in that shot so the Tantive IV seems to be moving as fast as it did in previous shots.
10 - Colour correction of the whole film to remove the blue tint. The Tantive IV’s walls are now white.
11 - Re-coloured R2’s dome lights throughout the movie so they match closer to the rest of the saga. The front light now blinks from red to blue.
12 - Re-edited the Tantive IV corridor battle to fix continuity issues where troopers die more than once.
13- Added blaster flashes to all blasters that have them missing as they fire.
14 - Added blast flashes to the troopers where they are hit
15 - Corrected issues where the blasters flash as if they were fired on set but no laser bolts were present. Added the lasers to fix this throughout
