I, ahem, could use something to upload to the newsgroups, ahem.
@Bigrob: Right on! I can't wait to hear which version it is.
@Number20: Yeah, I'm jealous of all that's been accomplished in the SW preservation realm. Sigh... There has been some done in Trek, tho'. Still a bunch left to do. Not as much as SW, Paramount hasn't leaked nearly as much as Lucasfilm, and they haven't done as much revising. I've been meaning to post more in the Preserving Star Trek thread that just scrolled off... Heh, it's a bad idea to wait for me to get things done.
At the risk of duplicating some of what I would put there:
Early in this thread Hiphats mentions he has a widescreen preservation of TMP. I assumed it was LD, but, rereading it, he didn't actually say. If it's LD, I'll bet it has glorioius PCM sound.
And over here Ash595 did a LD conversion of the 25th Anniversary. He's going to be making a cover for it. I recently sent him a scan of the VHS, I hope that works out.
