Topdawg nice idea regarding the menus and DVD art. Anything that ties this one back to the others is welcome as far as I'm concerned. Any suggestions on how we should proceed with the menus? Ccan we contact the guy who made the one you posted? I wll be putting the new line readings into the edit immediately. Can't wait actually. Although I still only have the part time line. The rest weren't in the rar file.

Sluggo, you dvd cover looks great man. Thanks!

As for the aliens... I worked and worked on the climax to take them out and as far as my limited experience can tell there's no way to do it short of digitally removing them. Here's the problem. The damn alien shares the screen with Spalko most of the time. In fact, the first time we see her eyes start to burn the alien is there. When we see her start to turn to mist the alien is there. So to ease the transition into her eyes burning I had to add something that was the topper to the aliens merging that seems like it causes her eyes to burn, which turned out to be the alien right when it forms. It is surrounded by bright light and only seen from the chest up so its not quite so offensive. Then we see Spalko's eyes burning.

Another big problem with the climax is that Indy does NOTHING. The last thing Indy does (besides deciding to run and failing to save Mac) is open the door with the skull. Sure in Raiders he didn't contribute to the climax either, but at least he new to shut his eyes - not to mention the badass nature of the ark opening and everything else in the context of the scene made it work. TOD he defeats Mola Ram, LC he picks the right cup. KOTCS is just a really week climax.

I would LOVE some suggestions on the climax. Let me know.

After I put the new line readings in I can render out the edit as avi and show it to a few of yall to get feedback.

I'd love to be in your test group.

At this point I don't really have any idea how to solve the fact the Indy does nothing during the climax. It's a major weakness in the film.

By the way, I had all three audio files in that rar archive.
