cough 4K77 cough
Yes I have 4k77 but it’s not Legacy. You have to admit that the time and work Mike put into his project was monumental…and judging by all the vimeo it would have been breathtaking to see in a large screen.
I mean you could contact him on Twitter but good luck with convincing you to give you a download links through Resilio or any other means…
Hope you do succeed 👍
Oh i never said i was looking for a download link. Like i said, i never asked him, and i had plenty of opportunity to. I’m just grumbling…lol
I was 13 years old when Star Wars came to the cinema…and the Drive-In theaters (who remembers those?).
I’m slowly coming to terms with the fact that I will probably die before seeing Mike’s Legacy project.
I have never tried to contact Mike about acquiring a copy for private viewing. Hell, if he were open to it…i would fly to his home just to see it on the screen. Lol fat chance of that happening.
My point is that us old fuckers that got to see it in 1977 are slowly dying. In 10, 20, 30 years max almost everyone alive during that time will be dead. In 7 years it will be the 50th anniversary of the public release…and the “best” version I can LEGALLY buy/watch is still an abomination…a completely separate entity from what I grew up with and loved.
Guess I’ll be looking for 2.0 then!
You should be looking for version 1.4
Thank you. And I must admit I’m not having much luck.
…IPT and Spleen have it
Why can’t it be released online? I know there are reasons, I just don’t know what they are.
Legal reasons. Mike has been trying to be completely above-board on his work. He has been in direct contact with both Disney/Fox and probably others. To violate that “friendship” would most likely be very disastrous for him. As a private project he probably wouldn’t get into too much trouble owning that restoration…but as a PUBLIC entity that is where multiple legal teams would eat him alive…unless he had express permission to release it.
At least it exists. And if we are lucky someday we fans will get a copy to cherish.
Lol Tomas…I have what you have (plus extra versions of SWHS) but i don’t use a flashdrive…I have all my digital media stored on 7 ten-terabyte external hardrives. (Need to buy 2 more…disk space is low)
An archivists work is never complete…sigh.
Glad to see this thread and the hope for some sort of release of Legacy has not died.
…and now I’m 56 yrs old! (See my last post here a year ago lol)
(Insert Wilhelm scream here)
Yeah I grabbed the D+ versions for comparison…they were what I was basically expecting.
Still awaiting new versions from TN1 because they have done an incredible job up to now, especially with those last color corrections. (pm me will if you have any exciting news)
And I still have all harmy’s stuff because of his famous splice work.
As for mike…We love the time/work/dedication you have done for all of us. We know you must remain silent regarding this whole thing. Hope you and your family are healthy and whole.
For the rest of the community , i would like to extend an invitation to join me as i infiltrate Verta Ranch to steal a copy of Legacy. I have an insider named “Scruffy Nerf-Herder” who can get us in.
@Williarob
I grabbed the 1.0 version off spleen a while back and watched it. I also wanted to congratulate you all on your 1st pass release. Very beautiful work. I’m assuming the color corrections and other details are going to be the next phase…do you have some sort of worklist with projected finish dates? If so, could you share them?
Well, I hit 55 yrs old this week. Hoping to own/view Legacy before I’m too old to remember my own name.
Still keeping the faith here…
On this day in 2018…George Lucas found the last remaining copy of “The Star Wars Holiday Special”. It had been owned by a couple living on their farm.
I still have hope…and its not ‘a new hope’…
apparently I sorta got the first one right…lets see if my other predictions pan out…
“Official” Star Wars 8: The Force Unleashed Spoilers
Chewbacca returns to Tatooine as captain of the Millenium Falcon, after the death of Han Solo. There, he recruits 2 first-mates. They are Heckle and Jeckle, 2 irascible brothers whose antics cause no end of trouble and laughter for poor Chewbacca. They will be CGI, and look sort of like wombats.
Leia will become much more integral to the plot of “Force Unleashed” as she and her servant/companion, Beurre (another cgi-created character) enter the plotline. Beurre is a talking animated butter-dish, whose singing and positive attitude will delight children and adults of all ages. (Disney approved)
Luke and Leia will explore and fully realize the “forbidden love” aspect of their relationship, in a desperate plan to revitalize the jedi ranks by creating children, and then multitudes of clones of those children. These new younglings will, however, have some forms of retardation, due to the in-breeding.
As you know in real life, the character named Finn came under legal dispute by Finnius, a handle that had been used by ME since before the days of WWW, back with Arpanet and BBS. After clearly showing in court that I had been called “Finn” or “Finnius” since 1981…I was allowed to take over the role of Finn for all remaining movies. I will be digitally changed to blackface in the movie to keep continuity for the franchise. Finn will become the love interest of Rey, while the both of them begin Jedi training under the new Jedi Master.
The new Jedi Master, Jar-Jar Binkenobi takes Rey and Finn under his wing, training them in the ways of the New Jedi Way…which includes pie-fights, prat-falls, eye-pokes and other distracting techniques to foil enemies. (it is rumored that a final battle between Jar Jar and Luke is in the script for episode 9, although Mark Hamill refuses to speak of anything, due to a gag order in his contract)
R2-D2 somehow regains his repressed memories of serving Darth Vader AND Luke Skywalker, and immolates himself in a courageous act of remorse. C-3PO, distraught over his lovers’ death, vows to never love again. Beurre eventually cheers him up with song and dance, and by the end of the movie C-3PO bravely announces his homosexual programming to the rest of the cast.
Kylo Ren dons armor, (much like Darth Vader) and his voice is augmented to match exactly to Professor Snape (from the Harry Potter series). Hearing of Luke and Leia’s romance, he vows to find HIS lost sister so that he can ALSO produce a horde of sith-children…and the race between the 2 factions for control of the galaxy begins.
Edit: Never mind. I goofed.
You know though, you could take the silence as good news. They accepted and told him to keep it secret… all I’m saying is you can’t read the silence either way.
Or negotiations are still being worked on. I feel like he’d tell us at least on his forum if there was bad news, but obviously couldn’t do so if there was good news.
^^
Why can’t someone post actual news on this project?
Was it really cancelled for space 1999 or was that a bad joke? I can never tell.
There is no new news. Things are completely dark atm. Annoyingly so…but a wise man once said:
“A Jedi must have the deepest commitment, the most serious mind. This one a long time have I watched. All his life has he looked away… to the future, to the horizon. Never his mind on where he was. Hmm? What he was doing. Hmph. Adventure. Heh. Excitement. Heh. A Jedi craves not these things.”
and:
“Patience you must have my young padawan”
No I didn’t potatochop these…these are real vintage ads.
This makes me happy
I have 13 of those…not telling which…
You could say that after every post in every thread of every forum.
The point was that we could just post movie gifs until the cows come home but it’s not really the point of the thread.
Does the screenshot relate to him quoting Tropic Thunder? If not then he had no real reason to say it.
He’s calling the other guy a retard. There’s no reason at all to say it.
Then I have no sympathy for the man.
Especially when it’s this easy to expand your vocabulary.
Oh noes! I sense a “thinly veiled” attack upon my personage. Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi, you’re my only hope…
/facepalm
Kirk Lazarus: Everybody knows you never go full retard.
Tugg Speedman: What do you mean?
Kirk Lazarus: Check it out. Dustin Hoffman, ‘Rain Man,’ look retarded, act retarded, not retarded. Counted toothpicks, cheated cards. Autistic, sho’. Not retarded. You know Tom Hanks, ‘Forrest Gump.’ Slow, yes. Retarded, maybe. Braces on his legs. But he charmed the pants off Nixon and won a ping-pong competition. That ain’t retarded. Peter Sellers, “Being There.” Infantile, yes. Retarded, no. You went full retard, man. Never go full retard. You don’t buy that? Ask Sean Penn, 2001, “I Am Sam.” Remember? Went full retard, went home empty handed…
Full Retard
This crosses the line. Thinly veiled personal attacks are not going to fly around here. First warning.

It wasn’t thinly veiled at all.

Yes.
Reason being…troll.
A black sheep is still a sheep…
Oh ok, so you’re the shitty person I thought you might be. Cool.
Lol depends on the situation…just like everyone else
I can only judge you by the situations you present here.
This is true. And I accept any interpretations.
Omg overanalyze it until it dies…lol. it’s a teaching story for the reader…not the monkeys…
/facepalm
