We went to IV here in LA. It was a blast. The Friday was the best to see the exhibits and the seminars, as Sat and Sun were PACKED. Best part was Boba landing in the main courtyard via jetpack, the Vader Helmets, and all of the great costumes that everyone was wearing. Go Darth Talon!! The two I saw were smokin!!

And yes, I spent WAY too much.

I made a video set to music of all of my pictures (and others from Flickr). Since I didn't ask for their permission, I haven't uploaded it. But I did give them credit at the end.

I do not have the 'Gold Collection' artwork - but I have 2 others. You may already have these:

JoeyO - Thanks again for these discs. But I cannot seem to locate the cover art in the un-rarred files. Can you give me a kick in the right direction?
Thanks!

Just a quick note - I had a chance to finally sit down and watch this, and it appears to have better PQ than my HongKong laserdisc. So thanks again for the effort on this disc, and I can't wait to see the second disc.

Funny that this came up - the daughter wanted to watch this instead of the Jim Carrey Grinch movie. Since it's 'technically' a holiday movie, we watched it.

Since 5 year olds love to see the same movie over and over... the next night we watched it again. So I'm good for a while!!

JoeyO - I would like to be considered for the PIF chain on this project, if possible. I do not read the 'news' on 'groups' so I do not have that available to me. Thanks in advance, and let me know if there is something I can do on this project to help out.

I goofed, and misplaced the cover and dvd cover for the Criterion Edition 2 disc set that was from the laserdisc. It included songs on disc 2 as well. Does anyone have a copy of the artwork and the disc label?
Thanks!

Just trying to keep this thread alive - I am still interested in a copy to replace my laserdisc version, and am willing to start a PIF when it's ready.
Thanks!

Is there a PIF chain? The fanedit.org appears to be down, and I can't resume my downloads

Please PM me if this is possible - Thanks!

Does anyone have any high resolution photos they would like to share? My camera flash malfunctioned, so I only have two shots from my Friday at CIV. If any of you have generic photos of the troopers, Jedi, Dirge, etc - please PM me. The ones I found at Flickr are low res. Thanks!

I went Friday as well, and my daughter had a blast. The fan films were great. On a side note, there were no lines at the star wars shop at 4pm, and the only line I had to stand in was at the Hasbro booth to get the @#%! exclusive Luke. The full size Jabba was impressive.........

Oddly enough, I actually own this laserdisc, and it's even unopened! I do not have an easy means of importing it to the computer, but I do have Pinnacle Studio 9.

For those not on the 'bin' or 'net', are there plans for a torrent of the DVD-9 release? I really enjoyed the splitscreens that Wookie Groomer made, and I am also willing to PIF.
Thanks.

I have the japanese laserdisc. Would a high-rez photo of the cover help? Unfortunately I'm not sure a screen capture would be a high enough resolution, but if so - let me know and I can try to get one. Since the BBC broadcast is a higher resolution to start with, a screen capture from your material would probably be better than what I have.
I've done some snooping on the web, and all I've found is low-rez stuff as well.

This may have already been posted, but there is some 'rare' behind-the-scenes footage mentioned on songofthesouth dot net. http://www.songofthesouth.net/news/index.html#122306
Perhaps it is too low of resolution to be of any use. Dr m already indicated the stills are too low of resolution. Therefore this post may be irrelevant!!

Wow - this is great. A second disc would be an incredible add-in, and well worth the trouble. From the looks of the other posts (especially Rowman's), this second disc may be more exciting than the movie itself. I also liked the cover art on the previous page, tying this to the Disney collector series.
Dr M - What program are you using for the menus?

Stop the presses!
So there's a chance for me to finally retire my Japanese LD?
Just to recap - is there an NTSC version available?
And can I get a copy of the PAL version?
Let me zip off a PM to the esteemed Dr Gonzo...

Just curious (and trying to keep the thread alive) if anyone has had the opportunity to convert the recent BBC broadcast to a DVD format?
I understand this would have the potential of being a better copy than the JP Laserdisc I own.

I did not purchase them. I have the VHS, the LD set, the LD Definitive set, the LD Special Edition set, the 2004 DVD set, and 4 versions of the LD transfers (Editdroid, Dr. Gonzo, TR47 Cowclops V2, DR M's RTW), plus the OCP movie versions.
So I will wait. The HD versions of this saga will appear, and I will purchase those. For me there is no need to further the collection unless the video resolution changes by an order of magnitude again (ie from VHS to LD, and from LD to DVD).

As for the Song Of The South, I agree - the Japanese laserdisc has the best video quality. However, there are Japanese subtitles hard-coded during the singing scenes.
I have the two versions of the DVD (one with Martins and Coys Easter egg, other with Coal Black Easter egg) and they are from the Hong Kong laserdisc. Softer picture, but no subtitles. It's similar to a bad VHS copy. But it's all that's currently available as Disney decided not to release it again. There is an extensive thread on this in this sub-forum.
Personally, the cartoon sequences are the best part...... the rest of the movie is rather droll.
I'm looking forward to what Rowman can create from those sources!!

Looks like the laserdiscs aren't worth much on Ebay anymore. Too bad, it was a great format.

I have a lot of LDs - some of my most treasured are
Spinal Tap - Criterion Edition
SOTS - Japanese release
Star Wars Episode 1 - Japanese Release
Dune box set - Japanese release - contains theatrical and TV versions
Aladdin box set - includes a making of disc narrated by John Rhys-Davies, book, etc
Both Star Wars box sets
Pretty much every Disney animated feature LD
and Chopper Chicks in Zombietown!!!

For my DVDs, the faves are the extended LOTR editions and the special slipcase I bought that houses all three.
