And yes the whole thing runs much longer. It is truely an edit for the die hard Alien fan that wants to see everything available in one place. The average viewer would feel it drags. It has a much different feel than the official version.

Totally agree with that summation RIJIR.
Right !
DL Discs have arrived and burning is underway !
Can I ask all those interested to send details to: meedermow@hotmail.com
First wave should go out Monday (tomorrow - Saturday if you're lucky !)
I would ask that those of you with Dual Layer burners or who only watch these edits on PC - then please can I send out 2xDVD5's as data discs, you can then rejoin them and burn them, or just transfer them to your HD and watch from there.
I only want to send out dual layer discs to those who absolutely cannot get friends etc. to burn a dual layer.
Apols, but the postage on the requests so far is pretty hefty
Let me know when you contact.
Cheers,
