Those are mostly the colours from the rip I have. Did they look that way in the theatre? It looks like a Sunday comic after it sat out in the sun until Monday.
IT'S MY TRILOGY, AND I WANT IT NOW!
"[George Lucas] rebooted the franchise in 1997 without telling anyone." -skyjedi2005
"Yeah, well, George says a lot of things..." a young 1997 xhonzi on RASSM
"They're my movies." -George Lucas. 19 people won oscars for their work on Star Wars (1977) and George Lucas wasn't one of them.
I doubt Paramount has particularly kept whatever resources they have regarding these in great shape. It's a shame nobody could cap it properly... :( thanks for the efforts of course.
A Goon in a Gaggle of 'em
resopources ? There's a joke in there somewhere... :)

Don't think anyone had any luck the last time, but I'm actually watching right now, Bon Voyage Charlie Brown on Time Warner Kids on Demand. It was 1.99 and I don't know if it's uncut or anything, but I hope so! It seems to be non-letterbox, which I heard was the correct ratio anyway.

Is that in HD?
For those of you who were looking, you should definitely invest in the Hauppauge PVR. it's currently the only way to record ANYTHING in HD. I have TONS of stuff in hd.
Unfortunately, I don't have HDNET. Time Warner has something against it and they almost always have a movie on there that I'm dying to cap in HD. :(
I bought ''Race For Your Life'' on VHS a few years back and ripped it straight to avi. It's the last good theatrical Peanuts film IMHO. I went to the theatre to see it in '77 and was blown away by a trailer that was played for some movie called 'Star Wars.' Wonder what ever became of that movie.
Bumping my old thread here... I now have DVDs of both movies I made from HD mkv's I downloaded, I think from the Spleen. My next project is to continue the Peanuts 1960s and 1970s collections, since Warner gave up on that. So that would be 1980s Collection Vol 1 and 2, 1990s Collection and 2000s Collection, complete with VHS only specials yet to make it to DVD.
Have you checked the LDDB for those? A lot of Peanuts specials did come out on Laserdisc.
Where were you in '77?
Looks like the forthcoming new Peanuts film finally got these released. Seems like it's DVD only, alas...

Bumping again, only to ask if someone did in fact record that broadcast of Race For Your Life - you see, 4:3 is indeed the original aspect ratio for BOTH films - I have a 4:3 1080p .mkv of Bon Voyage but the uncropped 4:3 version of Race For Your Life is elusive as hell.
I have a 16:9 1080p .mkv of it (obviously cropped from 4:3, which means it’s lost almost a fifth of the footage!) but for some reason it’s almost flat impossible to find the original at that resolution, if at all. If it weren’t for that cam-cap a few posts back I’d think it didn’t even exist!
Thing is, the DVDs of both films not only crudely crop down to 16:9, but they’re also only at 720p which actually looks downright BLURRY compared to the 1080p versions. (It’s been mentioned a few times that the new master-copies are actually at 4K though, which I think we’d all LOVE to get our hands on…)
