I'm not sure I've actually never even dropped the EditDroid set in my DVD player

I believe it's just the EditDroid crawl, but the second angle has been isolated for peopel who already have a copy of the trilogy but want the original crawl separately.

It says it'll take 39 hours wait on MySpleen, though; anyone know what's going on?

Episode II: Shroud of the Dark Side

“Back when we made Star Wars, we just couldn’t make Palpatine as evil as we intended. Now, thanks to the miracles of technology, it is finally possible. Finally, I’ve created the movies that I originally imagined.” -George Lucas on the 2007 Extra Extra Special HD-DVD Edition

It very well maybe BUT this particular title crawl is around 2 years old...

Russs15 downloaded this via P2P back on 2003 (Kazaa/iMesh/WinMX or a newsgroup) and I have had it on my HD now for about 4-8 months or so now - I tried to FTP it with my server here at home back in January or December but my server died....

Your ratio is probably really low, thats why you have to wait.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On March 13, 2005 "60 Minutes" presented a special segment that featured an
in-depth interview with George Lucas. The show previously profiled Lucas in 1999
during the release of Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace to document the
beginning of the prequels. Now that Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith
heads into the final stages of post-production, "60 Minutes" correspondent
Lesley Stahl returns to Skywalker Ranch to chat with Lucas about his family, his
technological innovations and his plans after Episode III.

"We want to give something of interest to everyone from the most die-hard Star
Wars fans who will be looking for that one frame that shows a little droid that
they hadn't seen before, to somebody who hasn't seen the films but knows that
George is an important figure in not just filmmaking but in another context as
well,"

- Segment Producer Rome Hartman

ENJOY!

Hey Rikter,

Not to sound ungrateful, but is there any chance you could put up a DVD version of the 60 minute segment?

Many Thanks.

I just need the DVD-Rom Content that was on the original discs before I upload them - I have the HQ tiffs and the rest for the EditDroid Team but not the extras yet...

I Am currently Downloading the versions of ESB and ROTJ that Rikter uploaded ( I think )...

It says that it will take 92 and 97 hours respectively... Um... Do I have to leave my computer on that whole time, or can I resume the Downloads later?

If I understand your post correctly....

You can turn off your box but add that downtime to that 92 and 97 hours so add 80 hours also respectively so it'll take about 6 days with 10 hours off per 24 cycle - I would suggest dropping the Jedi torrent for now which should drop the time to about 46 hours for ESB.

Just double-click the .torrent file if you downloaded the file if not go back to the site and just relaunch the file

Thst's cool

But the contend folder of ESB was not included in the torrent you uploaded. Will you make it available elsewhere once you obtain it?

@Rikter - Did you ever find the JACKET_P's for ESB ?

@Chaltab - You dropped off the ROTJ torrent prematurely, just as it's getting FAST !

However, in practice you must take into account the “fuckwit factor”. Just talk to Darth Mallwalker…

Does anyone have the Drew Struzan Star Wars art porfolio that was released on CD? That would make a kickass torrent if anyone can find it.

Could anyone PLEASE post the EditDroid releases of ESB and ROTJ onto alt.binaries.starwars? There, many people can get it from one poster, and can download it in a fraction of the time it takes from a bit torrent. (Only takes me 4 hours to download a DVD on newsgroups.)

I *LOVE* all these torrents. In fact, I've contributed to myspleen to help it live. I've searched around for the RowMan bonus disks, but I don't believe they've been released as a torrent... Will these ever be torrented or is this something that can only be traded? In any case, I have to thank everyone for all the work they've put forth for all these discs - it's amazing. Really.

Look forward to the future discs. Thanks Rikter - amazing work.

They will be posted on the alt.binaries.starwars after I post them as torrents. The reason is NOT everyone can afford newsgroups (myself included) the torrents are a bit easier for the average user to get and I want to make sure that everyone has access to them without goint to eBay.. Again if broadband is not an option for you please email me at my private email address list below or in my profile

And on that note I forgot to add...

I had intended on posting the Splitscreen ESB last week but my XP machine went all wonky on me and would not let me see my TiVo in turn I could not use any of the TiVo Home Media Options. So, I have just rebuild my win2000 box and I also have done a fresh install of XP on my main box. (which took two days as I needed to get all the drivers again)

I should have the WookieGroomer ESB up later tonight of very early in the morning!
