Star Wars OT BONUS materials repository

Author
Time

There have been several substantial past efforts to bring together both released and unreleased BONUS Original Trilogy materials into various fan edit and preservation projects.

The purpose and scope of this thread is to provide information about the very BEST of these efforts, but specifically limited to:

1) the Original Trilogy (and primarily the NON-Special Edition, original theatrical OOT versions of Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi)

2) BONUS material (including documentaries, interviews, deleted scenes, "making of" features, trailers, toy commercials, and the like) in the BEST quality available from various "official" AND "unofficial" sources.

The goal for this effort is to effectively use this thread as a well-organized and collaborative repository to better identify and (strictly within the confines of OT Forum policies stated HERE and HERE) point OT users in the "general direction" of non-commercial OT BONUS materials.

While it is certainly possible that I (or another OT forum member) may later use this OT BONUS materials repository as a spring board in an effort to produce NEW and original more "definitive" collection(s) of OT BONUS materials, I believe that this thread will provide a useful resource for both new and seasoned OT forum members alike!

All the best! ;)

p.s.  Due to current OT.com post size limits, I have broken the following into a series of posts (which I will gladly update and maintain as new information comes forth)…

“Version History”

(v1.0fc15) - 11.08.2013: 

  • Added Star Wars:  Music by John Williams (TV Movie 1980, Color, 59 min) listing.
  • Added link to Rinzler’s StarWars.com Author blog along with OT.com forum and RandomHouse.com links to each of his “The Making of Star Wars” book titles.
  • Changed “Return of the Ewok” (Video 1982) to “Return of the Ewok” (Video 1982, Color, 24 min).
  • Moved imdb.com link to top of “The Star Wars Holiday Special” (TV Movie 1978, Color, 97 min) and “Return of the Ewok” (Video 1982, Color, 24 min) listings for consistency.


(v1.0fc14) - 11.05.2013 [Special Guy Fawkes edition!]

  • Re-arranged title order under The ocpmovie Collection and added several new links to “Return of the Ewok” (Video 1982) listing.

 

(v1.0fc13) - 11.04.2013: 

  • Added IMDb film “type” (ie. “TV Movie”, “Video”, ect) designations to all titles with IMDb listings.
  • Added Wikipedia.org links to “Empire of Dreams: The story of the Star Wars Trilogy” (TV Movie 2004), “The Making of Star Wars” (TV Movie 1977), “The Empire Strikes Back: SPFX” (TV Movie 1980), and “Classic Creatures: Return of the Jedi” (TV Movie 1983).
  • Re-ordered The Star Wars Documentaries (under Star Wars Blu-ray set) into the same order as they are listed on the retail Blu-ray cover art.
  • Fixed “The Star Wars Holiday Special” (TV Movie 1978) Cover Art link.
  • Retitled “The Making of Empire Strikes Back” by Michel Parbot (1980, Color, 26 min?) as “The Making of Empire Strikes Back” (1980, Color, 26 min?) by Michel Parbot and removed three essentially redundant February 28, 2013 links announcing the earlier (February 7, 2013) posting of video by StarWarsArchives.com onto YouTube.
  • Added Facebook Photo Albums link (to help provide easier access to the actual video postings) under EditDroid Demo Laserdisc (1983): “Return of The Jedi” Scene 50 Raw Takes (Dagobah).
  • Added YouTube links to “From Star Wars to Jedi: The Making of a Saga” (TV Movie 1983), “How to Film the Impossible” (TV Episode 1985), and “When Star Wars Ruled the World” (TV Movie 2004).
  • Substantially revised The Making of the Original Trilogy [SERIES] (written by J.W. Rinzler, released as media rich Kindle and iBook Editions on October 22, 2013) and sub-listings to include the 720p iBook Edition, original hardback publication dates, a new Parka Blogs Book Review of “The Making of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi”, and a revised arrangement of associated links.

(v1.0fc12) [HAPPY HALLOWEEN edition!!!] - 10.31.2013:

  • Added “The Making of Empire Strikes Back” by Michel Parbot (1980, Color, 26 min?), “The Stars of ‘Star Wars’: Interviews from the Cast” (1999, Color, 93 min), and The Making of the Original Trilogy eBook [SERIES] (written by J.W.

Good stuff here. Thanks for your efforts in organizing this information!

Thank you bro!  To really be much of a "repository" though, I do definitely wish to solicit the help of my fellow Star Wars nerds, geeks, dorks, and "other" in further expanding and helping to keep this effort up-to-date (while maintaining both quality and focus)…

To that effect, I have made several "silent" additions to the original posts above over the course of the past week!

Please enjoy responsibly! ;)

7FN did the best preservation of the "Story Of" LPs. They're available on a.b.starwars (Usenet).

A picture is worth a thousand words. Post 102 is worth more.

I’m late to the party, but I think this is the best song. Enjoy!

AntcuFaalb-

Thank you for the heads up!  Added entries for "The 7FN Collection" and "The ABC Collection" to the above.  One of my hopes with this repository is to help make (the general direction of) as much non-retail or no longer commercially available OT BONUS material related content as freely available as possible.  While Usenet is certainly a viable and useful method of file sharing, it is generally more complicated and in most all instances does require a paid service for binary access.

I could not find 7FN's the "Story Of" LP preservations on MySpleen…would you (or anyone else) possibly be willing to up it to MySpleen just long enough for it to catch on?

All the best! ;)

It was on MySpleen, but 7FN had the listing removed by one of the mods after he got upset by the lack of comments and the high number of leechers. I imagine he'd do the same if I were to make another torrent and upload it there.

That's unfortunate.  Yeah, I definitely would not ask for the sharing of an OT forum member's project against the will of its author.  That being said, I think I'll at least try asking 7FN for permission in their "Star Wars Trilogy LP Preservations" thread.

Just updated to NEW v1.0fc12…


Hope you like the changes and new additions! ;)

 

 

-A.S.

p.s.  A few of the v1.0fc12 projects are going to have their list of links trimmed in v1.0fc13, in addition to some other refinements that I already have in mind.  YOUR suggestions, however, are ALWAYS welcomed!
