I finally cracked and went to Amazon Spain to purchase the bootleg, legally grey edition of True Lies but since the release of the 4K, only very expensive second hand copies are now available.

While searching eBay, I found a guy selling bootlegs of the bootleg, quite cheaply, so I nabbed one of those.

Yes it's an older transfer of just under 25gb but I think it looks a lot more natural than that that new 4k edition.

The only problem is that I have now discovered PlayStation 3, 4 and 5 don't recognise BDRs. Luckily I have a way around it.

In terms of Star Wars, I think you'll have to be happy with the 4K(YEAR) editions.

George has always maintained that the original negative was destroyed in creating the Special Editions but it's known that, I can't remember which museum, holds a copy of the original negative.
