Wanting the history of cinema preserved does not mean you necessarily like every movie that needs saving.
Grow up.
Wanting the history of cinema preserved does not mean you necessarily like every movie that needs saving.
Quoted for truth. There’s a lot of movies I could care less about, but if they need to be preserved, they need to be preserved.
"Right now the coffees are doing their final work." (Airi, Masked Rider Den-o episode 1)
It’s mostly nostalgia for me. TPM was the second move I ever saw in theaters. I also have a very distinct memory of eating Taco Bell nachos and seeing advertisements for the film there. One I can get a decent quality version of the theatrical version, and the weather is right, I’m getting me some nachos and watching the shit out of this.

Thank you.
Oh wow I had forgotten this project! So… is this still alive?
Yeah I was really excited to see this released!

I am certain that at some point in the near future there will be scans of the PT from actual film done. This is always a waiting game due to it being done by fans, for fans, with the support of fans.
In that situation, somebody will be able to assemble a Despecialized version of TPM using the HDTV and 35mm as video sources and the Cinema DTS CD and Laserdiscs as audio sources.

The problem is that it’s The Phantom Menace we’re talking about here. I’m afraid that the people who have the skills and machinery to do that just don’t care enough and don’t want to go through the long process just to preserve a movie that possibly scarred them for life.
I disagree actually. While I don’t see AotC and RotS getting a lot of love, The Phantom Menace is better in its theatrical form, and for many is the least hated of the PT.

RU.08 any updates on this project??
I am working on a Phantom Menace theatrical reconstruction, and I’m wondering if anyone has that DVB recording or can point me in the right direction to obtaining this, as well as the Digital Movie Collection Extras?
No one has it sorry. The guy who recorded it was a perfectionist who only wanted to extract it directly off his cable boxes encrypted HDD rather than use something like an HDMI splitter/capture card. Then after failing to rip it he disappeared.

Hi RU.08,
I discovered recently your amazing work (AVISynth scripts, missing scenes collected from DVB, LD-Althor, Andrea, and so on…)
Is your project still alive? Will it be released?
Thank you very much!
Perhaps there is hope in this other TPM Theatrical preservation in-process:

Thank you alex,
I am aware of this other project and I wish him good luck, but I’m less convinced in his technical and artistic choices than in RU.08’s (IMHO).

While I don’t believe he has said that and I don’t want to speak for him, he doesn’t post in this thread anymore and you should not get your hopes up for this.
As per the “35mm prints for sale” thread, there is a Russian print of this up on eBay, which would be extremely useful for missing frames.

Hmmm… smells like spam in here!
I thought I recognized your foul stench when I entered this forum!

Okay well with the 35mm scan now dead, I guess I better do some renders.
I was up to working on disappearing the bridge - this is how it looks:
What I need to do is go through and manually make a mask for every frame leading up to that frame.
