For decades, fans have wanted to see Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope without its special edition makeovers. So a group of friends and enthusiasts has decided to take it upon themselves to restore an original faded 35mm print of the movie, spending thousands of their own dollars to do so. The process took many years, and has resulted in the best-yet HD version of the original theatrical cut. Following their efforts, they've decided to leak the print online for all to see.

The group behind the project has dubbed themselves Team Negative 1. They quietly released this restoration on a message board last month, calling this Star Wars print the "Silver Screen Theatrical Version". This past Tuesday, TheStarWarsTrilogy.com did an interview with the leader behind the group about the extensive restoration process. And how the team had to go frame-by-frame through the entire 35mm print to bring it back to its original glory.

This restored copy of A New Hope is the exact copy they showed in 1977. Before the Special Edition tweaks were added that have irritated fans over the years. All of the new dialogue, visuals, and CGI creatures that have been added throughout the 80s, 90s and 2000s are nowhere to be seen. And in this restored original version, Han shoots first. You'll even see that Greedo doesn't fire his blaster at all. The Silver Screen addition isn't a flawless restoration. It still has some pops, scratches and color issues. But fans claim this is the most accurate release compared to what debuted in theaters May 1977. It's not the only restored version of the movie.

There have been similar attempts bring Star Wars back to its original form. Perhaps the most infamous of these was the fan-made Despecialized Edition. With the help of many dedicated fans and video editors, an OriginalTrilogy.com user calling himself Harmy recreated the complete original, unaltered trilogy in Hi-Def using various film and video elements culled from a number of resources. The difference between Harmy's Despecialized Edition and the Silver Screen edition is that this new restoration has been completed from an intact 35mm print of the movie as its sole source of footage. George Lucas has long refused to release a restored version of the 1977 movie.
