I want to create an awful looking multi-generational, linear mono audio VHSrip version of TheThirdGathers’ Backstroke of the West dub that uses a 35mm sourced version of Revenge of the Sith for the picture. I plan to render the subtitles on the video frame itself like the popular YouTube version, but done up to look like shitty burnt-in theatrical subs to give it a Chinese language film theatrical print vibe. If anyone could also give me the actual Chinese subs the Backstroke script originates from, that’d be helpful, too.
For this I need the 576i TUN bootleg SVCD that used to be hosted on none’s fd.noneinc :F:L:I:M:S:I:P:L:A:S:T: 😄:A:T:A:B:A:S:E:. This is the version with the Cyrillic crawl that was also used to make the moviesonfire .avi. If anyone could direct me to a copy of this version, please notify me.
Edit: received bin/cue files from friedcamera, so this project can move forward now.
So, a new book came out and we learned so much, and it is called, “Anguilosaurus, Killer of the Living”.
I’m experimenting with ways to make the audio sound terrible already. Ran this scene through a microcassette tape:

Im totally sold already, but…from where are the voices? They dont sound ‘‘machine-y’’ like the video on YouTube of Backstroke of the West
I like the cassette tape feel for sure, impressive, most impressive.
I don’t really care if it’s in the shape of a movie, or a cartoon tv-series, or if it’s on videogames and books. Neither if it’s canon or legends; I love all my Star Wars (yes, even the prequels).
“Laugh it up, Fuzz ball.”
Oh wait, no, not all of it, don’t count the Holiday Special on it.
You could also try rerecording it through a speakerphone or a walkie talkie? Of course the best way to get that true bootleg feel is to output the whole thing to a VCR and then copy the tape a few more times. Then mess with the tracking a bit when digitizing it again. 😃
I have a bootleg ROTS DVD stashed away somewhere, but I don’t know if the subs are what you’re looking for.

Hey, where’d you get that?
output the whole thing to a VCR and then copy the tape a few more times.
How much would that cost to get a VCR, a few tapes, and something to put the data onto a computer? It’s been a while since I’ve bought any of that.

Oh don’t worry, I have a perfect multi VCR setup for when I do get around to the tape capture. I’ve done multigen shit hundreds of time by now using that method you mentioned. The microcassette output was just a test to make the audio sound more like a bad mono optical track before the tape capture.
If it’s the Backstroke DVD, it should have menus like this I believe:

friedcamera still had a copy of the SVCD release of Russian 35mm bootleg that used to be hosted on none’s website.
A cheap VCR unit isn’t very hard to find (I managed to get lucky and score a free Philips S-VHS deck two years ago from guy who was clearing out his dad’s house), but capturing is a different story. I use an “ehhh”-ish Toshiba DVD recorder for capturing, but if you want more precise results and better bitrates, it’s wiser to go with a good capture card, which can sometimes be in the high hundreds in terms of cost.
You can still get decent-ish blank tapes from a few retailers like Walmart IIRC.

Subtitles test. (got the Chinese line from the wikia page. I still need the full script)

I found that DVD. The menus aren’t like what you posted. There are four Chinese sub tracks. All seem to be slightly different.
Where were you in '77?
Any updates?

So is this dead?

I still need the Backstroke DVD’s Chinese subtitles. Might have to go with the ones you posted instead of the originals then.

I’m thinking of reviving this project using the Spanish 35mm print with the gaps filled with the TUN. Unfortunately, I lost my files for that release in a move, so if anyone still has them and is willing to share, please let me know.
Many thanks.
