It got unblocked. I know it's FOX that owns the distribution rights to Star Wars, by a majority of the franchise is owned by Disney now, and Disney is easy going about people using their clips in mashup vids for comedy, commentary and other uses. They just take official action when they see one of their movies being uploaded in full.

I know Disney is better than Fox at these things, but how does this process work? Some auto detection first blocked it, and then Disney was alerted to it and unblocked manually? Or did someone submit a petition?

The first option you mentioned : Auto detection blocks it, Disney is alerted to it by the uploader and they manually unblock it.

Wow. It's one thing to not actively hunt down fan videos, but I'm really impressed that they're serious enough about their approach to this stuff (and therefore relationship with their fans) to correct things like that.

It's probably just some lackey following a scripted workflow and just pressing a button.
A picture is worth a thousand words. Post 102 is worth more.

Well, it's the policy I'm impressed by. :)
Could someone be awesome and send me a link to download the Despcialised, sooo exited to see these films like originally intended on blu-ray!!

Hi CiaranHaden! You're new here, so I suggest you read the forum rules. Asking for— and sharing hyperlinks to downloads is a big no-no.
I also suggest you read post #1 in this thread to see Harmy's pointers on how to obtain Despecialized.
Thanks!

I remembered at one point there was a trailer for the DeSpEd that was parodied from the Star Wars 1997 SpEd trailer. Does that still exist somewhere?

Point of clarification - you can share via PM, just not in the public forum.

A newer and more complete 20 minute version of the documentary.
Still work in progress but it will have to do for a while, I think, so I'd welcome it very much, if people made English SDH and foreign subtitles for this, so I can add them :-)https://youtu.be/QXifjbxZDAM
Hi Harmy! I know it's been awhile since you posted this; sorry I'm late to the party! The additional background information provided in the first half of this extended "Sources Documentary" video is excellent. I'm excited to see the final version of this short documentary in the future!
Since it's still a work in progress, I'm sure you'll eventually improve the pacing and remove repetitive shots (such as explaining problems with the GOUT at 5:30 and again at 12:15). Let us know if you want feedback on any of this, but you already have my complete trust in such matters!
I do have a question for you. As you may remember, I uploaded your first version (let's call it "v0.1") of this documentary on your behalf to my YouTube channel and coordinated efforts to provide subtitles in multiple languages. Over the last 2 years, it's gained nearly 700,000 views and is nearly always embedded or referenced in online articles talking about your project. Additionally, I provided propulsion links to instructions I wrote explaining how to (legitimately) obtain copies of SW DE v2.5. I don't have much to offer in the ongoing improvement of your project, but I like to think that I can at least served my best as an ambassador introducing your work to the masses.
Now that this next version ("v0.2"?) is complete, would you like my assistance in increasing its public visibility? I can offer my help in three ways:
---
Either reply or send me a PM if you'd like me to help in any of these ways. My preference is to link people to the video on your channel so that you clearly get the views/credit, but I'd also like to save you the time of deleting comments linking to SW DE on ThePirateBay! I'm here to serve in whatever capacity I'm capable.
The Force will be with you, always.

Is anybody on this thread is an admin over at MySpleen? I posted there requesting an invite. Really looking forward to checking out the films in their (nearly) original state!

There are three options in the first post, MySpleen, JDownloader or google for some checksums.
I am guessing most people want to use torrent, because they are familiar with it and have a bittorrent client anyway. But you can't get a response from MySpleen. Moving on...
WTF is JDownloader anyway? Never used it before and never likely to use it again. Don't want it. Moving on...
Googling those checksums isn't that helpful, what is really needed is the torrent checksum 756A3641E063D773ADFF18BFC73E0901FA14C24F which I posted a few pages back. Googling that DEFINITELY finds a live torrent.

So...I'm not sure how to respond to that. I did read the first post which is what led me to MySpleen in the first place. Maybe I missed something?
Not trying to make waves, just figured, given the awesome level of engagement around Harmy's Despecialized Edition on this thread that someone might be in a position to extend an invite over on MySpleen.

Thanks for the helpful response! I am in the process of trying to figure out JDownloader but given that MySpleen seems to be the preferred and most reliably updated method I was hoping to start there.
And I hate to flaunt my ignorance but I guess I've never heard of checksums. I'll give that a shot too.
Thanks again!

The first post does not say to ask for invites in this thread.
Download jdownloader2, reject any add-on software it offers, and then get the links from tehparadox. No invites necessary.
Can anyone confirm that the versions on tehParadox are the most up to date? I'm seeing v2.5 for ANH, 2.0 for EBS and 1.0 for RoJ.
If that seems right then I think I should be able to work with JDownloader and hopefully won't need to wait for a MySpleen invite!
Edit: Nevermind, I think I answered my own question. Thanks to everyone for your help.

I giggled at this because I KNOW this isn't the invite thread.
LOL
INVITE. I need an invite to myspleen so I can watch this amazing version of the best series of all time (i own the blu-ray bad versions. AKA: special editions). My myspleen username is MYGREENBEAN. Thanks for your help.
