So I wait for your enlightened response.

1 - I'm not a Blade Runner Expert (like yourself) nor have I EVER claimed to know anything about Blade Runner at all, but I dug the ORIGINAL movie as I saw it in the theaters (and I really dug your shrunk version of the HD broadcast of the D.C.) AND I'm certainly NOT a part or a member of the Esper Team, so I would have NO IDEA about any of the soundtracks or their sources (and I REALLY doubt you do either so UNLESS ESPER chimes in... its hearsay)

2 - I've NEVER heard of ANY of these CD's until I started this project so THEY are all new to me and I REALLY REALLY do not care about where they come from (notice I didn't ask for the source this time?!?) but if you REALLY care (like you seem to) go Google it or something.

3 - I have NO idea what I've done for you to be all over my ass on every forum I've posted on, First I try to work out some trades with you - you never get back at me about them, you’re always making some comment about any release I do or that you have a better version. (on and on and on much like a jealous child) Then you’re all over me because I simply asked for the source of the 1080i Blade Runner (which you went fucking nuts over and I was honestly just curious man) - so what's the deal man? I'm not the only one that has notice that you’re just a dick to some people. (and yes, I know that I'm an ass but I try to be cool to you and everyone else include all the people that email me asking to seed)

4. Please man, if you don't like my releases or my projects just don't deal with them, you know… OUT OF SIGHT OUT OF MIND - I'm REALLY not doing them to please you.

5. I’m done with you and your needless, unwanted and unwarranted “blah, blah, blah”, so you win okay; YOU ARE THE WINNER of what ever it is you’re trying to achieve by all your witty comments and statements and I yield to your greatness. (Does this make you feel better now?) BUT please keep making your comments and remarks; my subscription to the Funny Times just lapsed

6. Are you enlightened yet?

Yet I must be honest, I will still trade for or download your DVD’s even though I do not like you as a person - I still do think you release some DAMN GREAT DVD’s!!!

Re: #6. No, I'm really not.

Every time i tried to contact you about a trade, you disappeared. No biggie. There isn't anything you have (that I'm aware of) that I would need at this point. No harm, no foul.

I'm just curious why someone who doesn't know much about Blade Runner and just "digs" it would try and create something like this. Wouldn't it make more sense to know the history of it? That's like me jumping out there and making some discs of Star Trek when I know jack shit about it.

You're also just taking discs (with the audio) and trying to make some sense out of them. That seems sloppy. Don't claim that you're going to have something that you can't possibly have. That screws people up.

I've downloaded the Esper CD's. They sound like complete shit. All they did was try and extract the soundtrack from the actual movie. It doesn't take much to be able to hear sound effects throughout.

And I've it's going to be "tit for tat," I've talked to people about your being a dick to others as well. Happy? And fyi, your little rant doesn't help that image.

If you can't take a little criticism, then why are you here doing this? Obviously this is still in the planning stages and since you, by your own admission, don't really know much about the movie, I thought I'd lend my 2 cents. But obviously you don't really care about that. You'd just prefer putting out something that's "cool."

I wasn't "all over you" regarding the BR 1080i thing. In fact, I wasn't the only one trying to get it through your head that it was a new transfer. You kept complaining about it when you had never even SEEN it and wouldn't drop it, even when several people said that it was a brand new transfer; here and on other forums. Maybe if you did the research (much like here), YOU, sir, would've been enlightened.

Oh and btw...funny how you didn't think of doing this until you saw how popular my Blade Runner set was. So now were "trumping" that (much like you did with the Superman discs) by releasing your own 4 disc set. Yah, that's really mature.

To be honest, do what you want with this set. Now, with you asking people to reconstruct a trailer that has footage that's not even in the final movie, this sounds like it's going to be one heaping mess. But if you had watched it enough, you would know that.....not to mention the fact that you're putting 2 versions of the movie on one disc...one of which (the workprint) has terrible quality as it is.
