Return of the Jedi (Version C)

This disc is even stranger. It must have been an early bootleg, as it was taken from not the special edition laserdisc, but an earlier full frame laserdisc of the ORIGINAL version of Return of the Jedi. That's right - no SE. The only trailer here is the Dolby Digital "City" clip in 5.1. Then a pretty lame non-animated menu pops up, which allows you to play the film or visit a chapter selection page (which IS animated - go figure). There are 6 chapter stops in all. As it was mastered off of an earlier laserdisc, the audio here is only 2.0 surround. The picture is full frame and isn't remarkable at all, with Chinese subtitles at the bottom. The printing on the disc itself is taken from poster artwork, and has really bad color reproduction.

You can see screen shots from the disc below. Keep in mind that when resizing them for the Internet, Photoshop tends to minimize imperfections in the picture, so the images may make the video look better than it is. I would say that the video is about that of VHS (recorded at the 6-hour speed).
