Here's a youtube playlist of most of the workprint exclusive scenes:
If you guys look on this page, and the pages it links too. You'll see that there are alot of small changes that are in the workprint that aren't in the SE, I feel that some of them are worth putting in.

Alright guys, I got a quick update on my edit. I’ve gathered most my required materials.
Alien Quadrilogy Box Set
The normal Alien 3 DVD
Alien 3 Workprint DVD-R (thanks alot to RevBeastly for hooking me up)
The OSTs to all the films (original CDs too, so I can rip lossless tracks if I decide to rescore the film)
I’m starting to clean up and resize the workprint from fullscreen to the same res, AR, black bars, as the Quadrilogy.
A full list of changes is coming soon!!
What I do need though, Is a decent copy of this trailer
Alien 3 Trailer #2
http://www.movieweb.com/video/VIe85ifeaWPqhg
It contains the EEV crash scene, I don’t believe is in any cut of the film not even the workprint. But it is in the trailer. Is the trailer on any of the Quadrilogy discs, I didn’t see it, but maybe I missed it.
I’d definently be your best friend/lover/loyal companion for life if you found me a decent copy of this trailer. I really want to edit that scene in.
Anyone got a copy of this, I’ve seen it up on some video trade sites, but I don’t want to pay for it, I’d like to try cleaning it up in anvisynth or something, or extracting the extra scenes and putting them back into the DVD release. Does anyone have a copy to help me out with this small project?
I've seen the edit before, as I had it a few months ago, I lost it when I had to reformat. He had another edit "The Zodiac - Less Bullshit Edition" or something like that, I just didn't see either of these on fanedit.org, so that's why I was curious if anyone's heard of him.
Has anyone ever heard of this edit of halloween 2k7, I’m obtaining it, and I’ll post some shots or something when I’m done, but as far as I know this guy isn’t here or on fanedit.org. He seems to have some talent and I think it would be cool if we could get in touch with him and let him know about our community.
This edit seems very interesting, and follows the original leaked workprint very well judging by the description.
Here’s the cover:
<pre style=“text-align: left;”>HALLOWEEN - THE TRAGEDY OF MICHAEL MYERS
A Fanedit for Halloween 2007 by steFANedit
What is it about? To go for a more sympathetic view of Michael Myers.
This time it´s his story and a more realistic one.original film name: Halloween Unrated Director’s Cut
new film name : Halloween - The Tragedy of Michael Myers
tagline: Evil Unmasked
film studio name : Dimension Films
Date Original Film Was Released : Dec 18, 2007
Date Edit Was Released : Oct, 6, 2008
Original Runtime : 121 minutes
New Runtime : 120min 55s
Cuts removed/added/extended :Added Michaels hearing to get transfered to minimum security
Added Michael leaving Smith’s Grove Sanitarium after the rape scene
Added Michael taking the gravestone
Added Loomis meeting up with Sheriff Bracket in the graveyard
Added Alternative scene where Loomis gets the phonecall telling him Michael´s out
Added Alternative death for Lyndas boyfriend
Added Alternative ending, it´s all about Michael Myers, this is his journey, so I feelt that this is a more suitable endingRemoved:
Debra and Michael out for a walk at Smiths Grove + Loomis final video recording of Michael
Original death scene of Lyndas boyfreind gets killed dressed up like a ghost
Sid Haig at the cemetery, I think the alternative footage is way better + feels more realistic
Koplenson calling Loomis telling him Michael´s out
Cut joke made by Tom Towles character just before Michaels hearing, I just didn´t get it or thought it was funny
Cut the whole bagel thing
Put scenes in different orderYour intention for this fanedit: Make it more realistic and as close to the workprint timeline as possible, I liked that one better, Zombies final movie was just a big leetdown and I can´t belive that he cut out and
altered the scenes that he did. This remake is mainly about Michael Myers, lets keep it that way.!!!You need to own the original DVD to legally watch this!!!
</pre>
Ask around on doom9.org in the avisynth forum they'll find you something good to use
Alright, I'll give you a copy if you like, or if you find anyone who's doing a Borat fanedit or something, give me their name and I'll contact them.
I’ve got around 5mins of extra scenes from the movie “Borat” ripped off of a promo VHS.
The scene include:
Borat in the supermarket asking about different kinds of cheese
Borat talking about STD’s to a doctor
Borat attempting to buy a dog to attack jewish people
Borat getting sent to Guantanamo Bay
Borat getting pulled over and presenting a Khazakstan Drivers Liscense
The quality of the tape was pretty good but not great, I’ll send you a copy if you want one.
This could be useful for a preservation effort of fanedit.
NOTE: I don’t know what the source of this is, but by my understanding it’s a VHS Workprint/Promo tape, if you feel it to be otherwise, post and I’ll ask the guy that ripped it.
That's me and my crappy MSPaint skills editing this out of WMP, not the DVD. I just figured I'd get a better response from everyone considering I restored this from old film using a workprinter, but I guess if there's better prints out there, it's not as cool I guess.
Here's the official DVD screenshots that were posted up earlier in the thread:
Here's my copy, I honestly think mine looks better, because of the lower grain and a few other things, but it's still not as sharp, so you guys be the judge.
Here's my rip, you may have seen it on some old emule site or something, but I still have this rip. It's a alright quality VHSRip if anyone wants it.
I've also transferred a LaserDisc of THX 1138 that I purchased a few years back, I'm currently working on cleaning it up, I'll make a DVD if you guys want me too. If I can find a few good avisynth scripts I'll clean it up.
Here's a sample
Yep, it's the Directors Cut, I wanted to make a DVD of it because it is of superior quality than the retail version.
While I was overseas on a trip for the past nine days I took it upon me to use the DVR at my friends house to record a few HD programs I was interested in and I believe you guys may like one of them too. There’s some HD channel over there, I have no clue the name of it, but it was broadcasting THX-1138 in HiDef, now I have no clue if this is the fault of the equipment or of the channel, but I was only able to get it in 720p. I was going to do a little de-graining/de-noising on the source and then do a transfer to DVD9.
Here’s a few shots from VLC Media Player of the streams I captured.
Things to do:
1. Extract Audio from my DVD5 retail copy in high quality. (The audio it was broadcasted in was Russian/Ukraine or something)
2. De-graining/De-noising (just enough but not too much, I’m using avisynth filters_
3. Make Menus
4. Optional (Include Russian Audio and other foriegn language audio or subtitles)
5. Make DVD Menus (and add in trailer, DVD_ROM content, etc.)
6. Transfer to DVD
7. Labels?
I can provide more screens if needed, also, PM me when I’m done with this is you’d like a copy (I think we’re still allowed to do that)
FYI, there’s no BluRay or DVD9 release of this flick, so I figured it’d be appreciated alot.
I’m working on a fan restoration/preservation effort of “The Last Man on Earth” starring Vincent Price, I chose this movie for a few reasons:
The movie was never officially copyrighted and is therefore public domain
It’s got Vincent Price in it
It’s based on the Book by Richard Matheson, and the script was written partially by him
It’s based on the same book as “I am ledgend” and is better than it in my opinion
Numerous transfers to DVD and VHS were done badly by third party companies.
So, let’s get down to the details, I know someone who owns this on 16mm film, he used a digital workprinter an aquentience’s place of employment to get it into a file that he then supplied me with.
I then went to a local target store and bought this film on DVD to compare it to the telecine of the film my friend supplied me with. The DVD Release was done (badly I might add) by a third party company who did a terrible job. So that inspired me to do my fan restoration.
Here’s a shot from the DVD Release, it’s in a widescreen format I rarely see. Also, the lines in the shot below are noticeable throughout the whole DVD.
Here’s a screenshot of my telecine after some preliminary denoising and a little sharpening and resize to anamorphic widescreen, I’m not the best at editing, and I did what I could in avisynth, but it definitely looks better than the DVD release. Also, the screens aren’t the exact same frame, but the DVD doesn’t have the same scene as the telecine so I found a shot a couple seconds ahead where he’s in the same position.
I have little/some experience in video editing, and no experience in audio restoration, or making those cool DVD menus you guys are so good at. So if anyone wants to help me out let me know. I have an ftp server we can use as well.
I'm about 18, so the old Star Wars is a little before my time, but my friend is 21 so he'd have a better idea of what's different. Alot of these tapes came in recordable VHS sleeves, or at least that's what they were in when he showed them to me. As for the unfamiliar items and the text before the words in space, I'll stop by his house tonight and see if he'll let me watch/rip the tapes.
A friend of mine purchased three VHS tapes of what he thought was just Star Wars EP1-EP3 from someone for very little, upon playing the tapes, he found them to be different than the Star Wars episodes he remembered, upon calling the seller back the seller told him the following message.
These are the versions of the original Star Wars films before Lucas screwed them up. Remember Han Solo shot first.
My friend wanted me to find out if these were something special, or worth transferring onto DVD or something. I’m not as big of Star Wars fan as some of you so I don’t really know; so if somebody knows anything about these tapes please post.
I can rip them using a VCR and my capture card if you guys want me to.
Figured it out, I wanted to put the mono track in twice, once into each stereo channel.
I'm working on a preservation effort for a movie, I'm not done yet so I don't want to name the film. But I've done a fresh telecine of it, and can no longer get access to the film reels. So what I'm wondering, is, using what free/paid tools could I take the mono audio and divide it up into stereo channels. I'm not even sure if this is possible, but if it is, it'd help my project out alot. I can give you information as to which format the audio and video is in, if needed.
Thanks!
I've got a cammed or really LQ VHS of this if anyone's intersted. Not the best though, someone probably has better.

Also, I had a rip of this on my PC awhile back, it was a scene release from 2004 so good luck finding it, but it was a xvid rip or something of a tape that's better quality than mine. Here's the NFO to help your guys find it. The torrents of this out there, I have no clue if there this copy only renamed or what, but I'm downloading to see if I can find a decent one. This is the tape I have to offer, I can rip it if you guys like.
Hello, I may have something to contribute to your project. I could get you German language audio streams from a laserdisc of the international cut, I may be able to do this for other cuts of the film as well or in some other languages. Let me know if you're interested.
