Pay him no mind -1. While I agree to a certain extent that more substantial updates would be nice, he failed to put it in words without insulting you - several times. He's just out for attention, which I'm giving him right now . HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY V! xP

I won't lose any sleep over someone like you. This is the same hollow update/ promises that -1 did before....you know right before he screwed all of us by deleting all his posts and starting his own board? You people are so gullible. FYI bkev, no amount of fan boyisms is going to convince -1 to do anything. 

The only hope this project has is that Adywan is involved, of course he was before as well until -1 screwed him....

Adywan contrabution is the only hope this project has. If -1 drops the ball again all you'll ever get is fuzzy out of focus pics of a scratched faded proint. yippie.

there are you happy now? (I don't expect you to reply). if you don't care, why do you keep checking? seriously, just let us fail, and then you won't have to bother replying. the rest of US are trying desperately to get something done. be seeing you +1

I'm curious, how did -1 "screw" you?  Did you send him money or something?  I thought -1 was the one that shelled out the money.

Glad to hear how the project is going -1.

I "patiently" look forward to seeing this.

"The other versions will disappear. Even the 35 million tapes of Star Wars out there won’t last more than 30 or 40 years. A hundred years from now, the only version of the movie that anyone will remember will be the DVD version [of the Special Edition], and you’ll be able to project it on a 20’ by 40’ screen with perfect quality. I think it’s the director’s prerogative, not the studio’s to go back and reinvent a movie." - George Lucas

Yeah no shit! Negative 1 is taking all the risk involved and spending his own hard earned money, there never was a donate money thing involved unlike that vapor-ware project.

thanks for the backup from the rest of you.. yeah vbangle, do you care to elaborate? what exactly did i do to you? and do you want to fund this? its been about $10k so far, and i anticipate it will cost several thousand more for hard drives, equipment, and other things, not including the time of the adwyan and others that are donating it for free? really, do you want me to give you the prints, and then have you come up with a plan, and the money for it? i don't expect you to answer, and since you don't really care about this project, why do you bother posting here anyways? (and criticizing me, and my personal life also?).. be seeing you +1

Funny enough, that's exactly what I was thinking of the majority of your posts in this thread.  I'd appreciate it if you could please keep your criticisms positive or at least on topic, or even better yet not at all.

There's bound to be a catch, and this auction has only 4 hours left, BUT: http://cgi.ebay.com/16mm-35mm-Film-Transfer-Service-SD-HD-2k-BluRay-DVD_W0QQitemZ230386947498QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_Film?hash=item35a421d5aa

Based on their trailer they appear to do HD commercial films. I'd bet it's expensive, though... actual website here.

 

thanks for the link, and the heads up... if we need it later on for some reason, maybe we can contact them, and see what their prices and options are.. be seeing you +1

They seem to be pretty new and claim to have reasonable prices. Maybe you should just get a price quote from them on their website? If they are willing to do this, it would be amazing to get these scans in HD.

Has there been any progress with this project?

If there's one thing I can't stand, it's when people dig up old threads and ask if there has been any progress.

 

So...any progress?
