Hello fans, Shaman here. I came across this site while looking for solutions after my LOTR Extended Edition DVD started freezing halfway through the second disc.

I have been interested in fan restorations for years after discovering the “Despecialized Edition.” I lost my copies though when the hard drive they were on failed. Since then I fall back to the Fox video VHS releases when I want my Star Wars fix since they are more enjoyable than the higher quality “Special Edition” box set (despite the awful picture/sound quality).

I’m looking forward to learning more about what this community is up to and finding high quality preservations of my favorite trilogies!
