So I’m working on the Classic Edition of Return of the Jedi. I wanted this to be a surprise, but I need help. The copy of Moth3r’s Jedi that I have is corrupt. It fails during the last few chapters. I’m using this transfer VERY HEAVILY in this edit, and there’s not much more I can do editwise until I have the last bit of this transfer.

What I need specifically is the Death Star 2 exploding, and the Ewok celebration (starting with the shot panning up to the fireworks in the sky, and ending with the last shot before the credits).

Any chance someone could rip the M2V video for the second to last chapter from Moth3r’s transfer, and post it somewhere or email it to me? The file size shouldn’t be huge, for just one chapter. It’s definitely a case of “emergency, need it right now. Todayish.”

Thanks if you can. Tygerbug at yahoo.com is the address.

Metallaxis uploaded a torrent two days ago, and it looks well seeded now.
If you copy all the non-corrupt files to your hard drive using the same directory tree structure as he used,
directory called "Star Wars VI - Return Of The Jedi by Moth3r (PAL transfer)" with a sub-directory VIDEO_TS inside it,
then a torrent client could resume downloading from ninety-something percent.

However, in practice you must take into account the “fuckwit factor”. Just talk to Darth Mallwalker…
