I think you may well be mistaken on that, Jeyo91 - anyone & everyone can add and bring a little something to this place. 👍

Whether it chatting about their favourite projects, offering ideas and suggestions, feedback or reviews - or talking about the Original Trilogy, or the wider Galaxy Far Far Away.

Or simply even trying to help fellow members by answering questions or pointing them to relevant threads and useful info.

Or about film, tv, music, art, games, technology etc - or shooting the breeze about life in general - in ‘Off Topic’; along with posting jokes, memes… or insightful or intriguing articles & videos - we can all try and contribute to the community here.
 

A little patience goes a long way on this old-school Rebel base. If you are having issues finding what you are looking for, these will be of some help…

Hey gang, does anyone have the Fullscreen version they could DM me? I DM’d MJBenito last December but didn’t hear back.

It could be that…

Many editors & preservationists choose not to make their projects available to ‘hit & runners’ or people with a post history of mainly asking for various projects - which is completely up to them. That some people join up here looking to simply take - instead of give something back; not even leaving a simple ‘thank you’, feedback or review, or join in with the community here - and instead move on to asking for more projects… is not encouraged. Such requests may likely be ignored or deleted.

^ ❕ I have found a Fan Edit / Preservation I am interested in - but I don’t know how to get / acquire / download it?
 

I think I have that one on an old hard drive somewhere - though I have to be honest… I’ve no inclination to go rooting around them all trying to find it for someone who hasn’t bothered to make an effort in participating with the community here.

Fellow members are more likely to help you out if you are a participating member of the community here; you don’t have to be a fellow fan editor, preservationist, tech wiz, artistic or skilled etc… just a member that has made, or is making, an effort.

^ ❕ I have found a Fan Edit / Preservation I am interested in - but I don’t know how to get / acquire / download it?

 
Apologies if that appears harsh or overly blunt - yet a number of fan project creators and members have recently left here over this place becoming full of ‘link request’ posts - or people asking for links and nothing else… and even my own patience also grows thin. I do wish you good luck with acquiring it from others on here. 👍

 

Or to new members stating they cannot send a PM for the first 7 days here - and mistakenly think that entitles them to make ‘link request’ posts on here - instead of reading…

ATTENTION NEW MEMBERS: “Link begging” posts will be deleted without notice - in Announcements

or…

I have found a Fan Edit / Preservation Project I am interested in - but don’t know how to get / acquire / download it?

 

I do hope that MJBenito returns here soon - he is much missed - and not just for his many quality projects.

Hi is it possible for someone to send me the remaster? Im new to this site so apparently im not allowed to dm anyone for 7 days, it’d be nice to rematch this before the release of 28 years later. Not that I mind the original version, but I would like to see what this looks like.

No, not at all.

As above (and has always been the way for 20+ years on here - which has helped ensure the community has survived and thrived)

Fellow members are more likely to help you out if you are a participating member of the community here; you don’t have to be a fellow fan editor, preservationist, tech wiz, artistic or skilled etc… just a member that has made, or is making, an effort.

ok righto i’ll just buy the dvd then

Yeah, it is a good idea to own the official retail release (and is also golden rule of this place - in allowing this place to exist and function - for some 20+ years now). No gatekeeping required.

Wow. I finally got a chance to watch the widescreen remaster of this after watching the new 28 Years Later the other day, and I can say for sure that this remaster is a MASSIVE improvement. The film actually looks like it was shot on film now, the “filmized” look suits the movie really well and the grain effect helps hide the SD quality of the source footage by making lower resolution things just look like they’re out of focus rather than pixelated. I’ve watched it on my 4K TV and it looks better than my DVD copy and Blu-ray by a long shot. The AI upscale is also very good, not over the top and only looks dodgy in a few shots with text in the background that doesn’t always look right or in the foreground that looks a bit oversharpened.

However, with some fine tuning of a few scenes this would look on par with an official remaster.

I’m looking forward to MJBenito finishing the fullscreen version as well as hopefully continuing to update it and fix the issues with the AI oversharpening text and eyes in some shots as well as making the haloing worse. Hopefully he can also redo this AI upscale in 4K and use the new 4K steelbook as the source once it’s available.

I’m not sure if he’s just not been responding to DMs, but if anyone needs a mirror to the widescreen version, just DM me.

According to his profile, he hasn’t been online since January, so there’s not a huge likelihood of people getting responses. It may just be that he’s out there enjoying his life, only to return to this hobby when he wants to. If so, then people should respect that. It’s good of you to share your copy though.
