Likewise, with HDR10, colors pop off the screen without being otherworldly altered.
I felt like I was seeing textures and patterns in the clothing, set design, and the impressive creature work for the first time. It's amazing how clear and crisp the details are for this film.
With that caveat out of the way, the rest of the visual presentation is a wonder. It's not horribly distracting, but you do notice it from time to time. While details are absolutely gorgeous here, there's often a clumpy frozen appearance to film grain that does stand out in a variety of scenes. For whatever reason, an effort was made at the time of these restorations of the Original Trilogy to strip back the grain presence as much as possible. However - there are a few things to sort out upfront. As such A New Hope certainly makes a stunning first impression with a new native 4K restoration and HDR10 grading. As George was preparing these films for 3-D runs - that sadly didn't pan out - new 4K masters were ordered when Disney entered the frame. The 4K disc holds no bonus features and opens to Disney's standard language / "start the movie" menu structure.Ī New Hope is certainly that on 4K UHD after the somewhat muted appearance of the prequel trilogy on the format. Housed in a two-disc black case with identical slipcover artwork, the 4K UHD disc rests on top of the bonus features Blu-ray disc. Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope blasts it's way out of hyperspace onto 4K UHD Blu-ray from Disney in a three-disc 4K UHD Blu-ray + Blu-ray + Digital set. Vital Disc Stats: The 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray It's not quite my favorite Star Wars film - but it's the one that got the ball rolling and I will always love it. Countless viewings over three decades have never dulled the film for me. Regardless of which version I see - I'm always excited the first time Luke fires up his father's lightsaber. Also, the fact that numerous beautiful fan restorations exist in the wilds of the internet - I'm content if I really need to see an unaltered version of this one. I didn't see A New Hope in theaters until the 90s when Lucas released his "Special Editions." No need to go into the laundry list of odd choices good George made and for whatever motivation I've long since moved on as they've just stopped bothering me. Our first copy of Star Wars was just such a tape with simple red lettering on a white sticker that read "Star Wars - Three Stooges." Yes, my dad also recorded a few Three Stooges shorts after the credits because there was room left on the tape's extended play recording mode. Rather than buy all of our first tapes with a huge price tag, my dad was very economical and simply rented the tapes and recorded copies. My family had one main VHS player - a massive Sony model that must have weighed about two dozen pounds - and my dad bought a Hitachi video camera set - that came with second player/recorder in a shoulder sling duffle bag.
Like many of my generation, I grew up watching Luke, Han, Chewy, and Leia battle the Empire on VHS - and on a bootlegged tape at that! Sadly born a few years too late, I wasn't in the theater when Star Wars took the world by storm.
