I don't give a crap about how many awards SW won. I don't need a film to win awards for me to like it. Of all the stuff in Puggo's post that I quoted, why did you decide to pick on that one line?

well, you're the one who agreed with it,

if you didn't , you should have said so a lot more clearly...................

I also quoted:

Puggo wrote:

As such, every cultural, historical, and artistic sensibility that I know of demands that it be preserved in its original form. Students of the history of cinema should be able to study it, for example.

why don't you explain why exactly should this movie be studied?

i don't see any reason to... it's just a movie, that some people liked in 1977..

are you studying it? are you student of the history of cinema? is anyone here?

IF a real preservation was done, as it should be, nobody here would mind if GL or anyone else wanted to make updates and release those too. However, since GL is actively stopping it from being preserved, it is natural for film lovers to be angry.

how exactly are you being stopped? you seem to have done some awesome preservations

on your own.... i don't exactly feel like i'm being stopped either (yet)....

doesn't seem to be having much of an effect on the ongoing countless number of projects

on this board..

also, how many film lovers are angry here? i see mostly people that are DVD lovers

that are complaining ... all the film/vhs/laserdisc/ced owners don't seem to be complaining

as much..

later
