There's a thread on here where someone is an admin or something on myspleen, and they're giving out invites to all Originaltrilogy members.
Anyway, if you all could share how you're sharing it, I'd like to get in on that too!
Tarcanes, you could also mail a disc to someone who's committed to putting a torrent out themselves or what have you.
I assume it's the fact that finishing it takes actual work, where posting around the forum is recreation. You could always private message him about it! In any case, he's not getting anything from us out of the deal, so if he takes another 5 years, he'll have been pretty generous to do it at all. (; Though I'll admit, I'd like to see it too!
I'd use a deeper red for the text... Maybe even see if you could give it the slightly 3d look of the text on the final cut box if you have a font that fancy... But I'm now realizing finding a BR font with the 3d-ness is unlikely. A deeper, less bright red, using the actual BR font for the main title, with the fonts a bit larger. I really like the image though, and the whiteness of it. It is very much a way that BR hasn't looked before. (; And it looks good.
I wish I could help with the technical issues... /:
Awesome. I personally look forward to seeing it on my 60-something inch tv assuming I can get it on DVD.

it will be just like burning a new DVD from ripped DVD files.
Yeah, I'm a super noob around here and have never successfully ripped a DVD or burned a new one from ripped files. The only reason I'm here is my love for all things Blade Runner. (; Will I be able to burn it the way I would burn a regular data dvd? I expect not.
I found another thread with a post saying Imgburn is good, but that doesn't mention .vob files of course.
After a little bit of non-laziness and looking around the internet, it seems Windows Media Center will do it. Yes?
Watched it. That definitely works. Out of curiosity, what program should I have to make the DVD when you're done? I haven't looked into that side of things at all.
<p>niiiiiiiice! Looking forward to it! Will we have to PM for links when it's up?</p>
I don't believe so... I think Zombie is just busy with life and things but probably still working on it gradually.
Nice idea but the frame rate is awful. That's the problem with having a 1-man animation team, I imagine; you have an awful frame rate or you take an eternity. I don't think I could watch it.
Sidenote: This is supposed to be about Zombie's cut...
Not bad... It does seem somewhat fitting, though I don't know that the woman's voice is exactly fitting for the computer either.
My other main hesitance about that would be that it is literally adding to the film, rather than just splicing in original shots. I don't think that's within Zombie's operating guidelines here. (Though I'm sure he'll express his own feelings on the matter.)
If it could somehow be made to just seem like the guy on the vid-phone was just reading Deckard's questions and responding verbally, that would be less intrusive, I think. Maybe if Deckard's lines were subtitled, but in a way that they looked like they were being typed. (Appearing one letter at a time, in a natural rhythm, with a blinking cursor... Though I don't know why Deckard would be typing it and not speaking... Again it might take explanation from outside the source material to pull it off.) (Though, again, lack of intrusion may not be Zombie's goal, so maybe he's cool with it.)
That's cool. Too bad it has a woman's voice reading Deckard's lines.
Zombie, it looks good to me, but then, the original shots look good on this computer... Definitely not an HD monitor or anything of the like.
Ah. Thanks for the response, Zombie! I look forward to seeing it!
It would make sense. The question arises from the distinction in his initial post between "alternate/deleted scenes" and "raw dailies". If these dailies are something else altogether, I personally find that prettttty exciting.

Zombie, I'm a bit out of the loop, but where did you find the Blade Runner dailies? Is it all just the deleted scenes/stuff seen in Dangerous Days? Or is there some other cache of unused material? If so, I'd be thrilled to see that source material.
