After two months and three distinct versions, I have done as much as I believe can be done with this film with existing sources and materials. Here’s a snippet from my NFO file:
<div class=“PostQuote”>Are you a Doc Savage fan or George Pal fan or a hero/superhero fan - or just a
movie fan - that saw the 1975 “Doc Savage” film and came away disappointed?
Well, Have No Fear - “The Doc” is Here! He put his nose to the grindstone for
two months and now is pleased to (noselessly) announce that this movie has
finally gotten the re-edit it has needed for over thirty years…
This is a labor of love from someone who’s long felt that George Pal deserved a
swan song without a cheesy male chorus. Check out the “Changes - by
Chapter.rtf” file for a comprehensive listing of the improvements made to this
version of the film, and ENJOY!</div>
Though I know that most of you guys prefer distributing through torrents or RS, I’m an old Usenet guy, so I’m in the process of posting this to alt.binaries.dvd. It’ll take me a couple of days at my sad <50K/sec upload speed, but hey - that would apply no matter how I 'strib it. Maybe some kind soul will grab it from the newsgroup & seed it? (If not, I will, but again… SLOWWWWWLY…)
I will post my “Changes - by Chapter” file in a reply here for the curious…
Thanks to all of you guys for the inspiration!
