Skywalker Sound Comments On So-Called "Subtle" Changes To Star Wars Blu-Ray's!

IGN Movies recently had the chance to catch up with Skywalker Sound's Matthew Wood, who commented on George Lucas' decision to make some further changes to the six movies before their upcoming re-release on blu-ray next month. It's interesting to note that the following interview took place BEFORE the news of drastic alterations such as the "Nooo!" scene leaked, so I guess they're not that subtle after all!

"Every time we watch the movies he's got something he wants to change. And so there's obviously changes done to the films, visually as well as audio-wise. So there are some changes in the Blu-ray version that you'll have to find. [Laughs] That's always fun. It's funny because we meticulously put it all together like, 'Here's where it was.' And then he'll update it."

"I mean we're talking super subtle like a footstep here and there or a couple of lines of dialogue, or maybe some background stuff that we would basically go in and just re-perform or get an approximate sound. But very, very, very small subtle stuff. Just little comments here and there that were production lines that might not have been used or changes. But they're all very subtle little things that people will find."
