Star Wars: the Bad Batch (Disney+) follows on from the long-running animated adventure Star Wars: The Clone Wars, giving a group of characters who were prominent in the final season their own show, and is set in the period between the films Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. With no new Star Wars movie on the horizon – a root and branch inquiry into what went wrong with 2019’s The Rise of Skywalker is hopefully ongoing – Disney+ instead marks Star Wars Day 2021 with the fanboy substitute that is a new cartoon series. And you'd be forgiven for thinking Harmy would have a grudge against Silver, but that's not the case - he actually prefers it to his most current version of Despecialized.H appy Star Wars Day! What started out as a throwaway joke several decades ago – of saying “May the fourth be with you” on 4 May – has snowballed in the past few years and is now a fixture on the calendar, in the Disney marketing department at least.
Whereas the entire trilogy for Despecialized hit the internet in time for The Force Awakens' debut last December, for now, all that's available in Silver is the first film. This is entirely unlike Despecialized which splices together clips from the 2011 Blu-ray release, an HDTV broadcast of the Special Edition DVD, a version of the unaltered film included as a special feature on the 2006 DVD collection and "various scans of 70mm and 35mm" film prints and stills from the movies, according to Lifehacker. That time was spent doing dirt removal and repairing damage to the film print on a frame-by-frame basis, scanning the original prints with a DSLR mounted to a 35mm projector. Silver is a restoration project based off of a single 35mm film print of the original movie that's taken Negative1 over four years to create, according to a lengthy interview over at Movie Mezzanine. While on paper both projects sound pretty similar, it's the methodology used that sets the two available-via-torrent projects apart. Hence The Silver Screen Edition (above) and Despecialized Edition (below) from Team Negative1 and Petr "Harmy" Harmecek, respectively. Update your settings here, then reload the page to see it.
