Change of plans. I just read that the Young Indy DVDs will include the 22 Chapter versions so I may just purchase the TV series versions and leave it at that. If someone can find out when the official DVD release will be then I can maybe wait... or maybe if it is too long I'll get these first.

This project seems awesome. I recently saw a copy of the Russian DVD of the fifth Highlander (it is said to be unfinished) and it was completely and utterly horrible. This film actually is Oscar worthy compared to it. I am more than interested in this edit because of the fact that it is the longest version of H2 I have ever heard of. This link Here shows 3 versions of the film. I was wondering if the two theatrical versions (The American and British) are available anywhere.

Thanks in advance

I am not rying to beat you to it or nothing but I haven't even seen these yet. They are supposedly real good copies and if they are I would like to make it available to those who want. It is not a question of quality, I trust they'll be decent enough, and maybe until you get your masters up I could just trade these or send these to people?

Well I am getting them both for free as a gift. So I will make them available to the public soon as I get them... regardless of quality

You said you would be getting them as long as they are not illegal, since there is no official release of these and the guy is selling them they would have to be illegal. Of course since there is no official release yet I suppose it fits under the preservation category. I would recomend you don't spend too much money on this, since about the time Indy 4 hit the theaters we can be expecting an official release of this. But then again the official release very well may not have all the features this set has, it seems pretty inclusive.

What I meant by illegal is I will gladly be the pawn in some shady guy just selling me bootlegs as long as it is legal for me to distribute it (without any pay or anything - Trade/torrent/rapidshare/newsgroup or just PIF). Then I have no problem. The quality is supposedly very good and there is someone I am working a trade out with for both sets. However, I found the same sets and similar available for around 40 - 90 dollars a pop. Now my year anniversary is coming so I could just ask for them both as a gift. I would really like to see these and I know there are people here who want them so yeah.

BTW anybody who is looking for things that are unavailable currently on DVD let me know... my trade list is full of preservations I did unofficially myself...

The one bundled with Enter the Dragon doesn't seem to have the storyline recreation we need (at the beginning of the clip it says "The Story" on the title card).

Okay, so basically I am going to get a new copy of Game of Death and a copy of prereleased DVD of A Warrior's Journey. I'll keep you posted TAVCD and I still got you aim.

I am trading (or purchasing if the trade falls through) for a 23 disc Young Indiana Jones Set (all 44 real episodes - broadcast versions uncut and commercial free) with a regular DVD-R menu and a 22 disc set of all the rereleased chapter versions and professional looking menus. Either way I am getting it (unless it is illegal of course) and if I purchase them it may take even longer... but I figured I would make them readily available for all of you. I am tired of waiting and willing to buy them so we can all enjoy them. The quality is supposedly 8.5/9 out of 10 to 10 out of 10. Let me know what you all think about this.

Sure. I could do it. But i have a ton of other stuff I want to get out first.

I'd probably want to see if anyone else has a better source as well. I know one of mine is cut (that's how it was broadcast in my area of CT) and there are some others that were never broadcast in the US. I'd love those as well.

If anyone wants to collaborate if/when I get around to doing it, please let me know.

Hrmm maybe I should have read the rest of the post before getting so excited...

I have all the US broadcast ones.

And I can definitely author myself

I am sure that you are more than capable... I was just offering since you said you had other things you wanted to do instead... Young Indy is something I have been searching for for a while...

5acrifice,

I'm VERY excited about all this. I look forward to seeing your work. I thought the project was scrapped when the thread became inactive for a long time. But I was wrong! Seems like you're almost done? Don't worry too much about finalizing and releasing it. You can always get some feedback and make a 2nd version or something. Or you can give it to someone else if you want to move on to other things.

Thank you SO MUCH for coming up with the idea and working on this.

I began work on it and realized peicing it together won't be hard once the other footage is sized and corrected. I am going to make a bare copy with a first mix for the audio. I am going to take the feedback and put some more ideas into it. My coworker wanted a video made for his friend who recently passed away. He said he would work on the audio so I am going to get some insight from him. It will take a while because of school and work, but once it is done, I will send out or with some help upload the first 'draft'.

Nope, didn't get a PM. Shoot me another one and I can get to it right away.

I will sent one very soon and we'll figure out the best method of me sending the files. Thanks in advance!

if I sent you my copy that I downloaded of The storyline footage and this video doesn't look as good in resolution as mine does, then do you think you could do it to the video I send you?

Hey 5acrifice,

Not sure if you downloaded the video I sent you a link to in a PM but I threw together another example video.

This clip shows part of the storyline footage with a plain letterbox applied

This one is the same footage reframed shot by shot to avoid some of the problems with the straight letterboxing, also avoids showing any of the subs as well.

Do you have the actual files. I like what you are doing... it is just the google video is very blocky... hit me back

Okay, when I make a film in iMovie I save it as an avi and bring it into toast to just burn it to a DVD, normally choosing the best way to encode it and no matter what the file size the dvd still comes out looking all boxed and clunky... any suggestions. As you've already guessed I am using a Mac.

Okay, so I can get my hands on the theatrical version… 105 minutes, director’s cut… 138 minutes and I’ve seen the international vesrion… 124 minutes… What I am wondering… is if anyone knows where I can get my hands on the 150 minutes original cut… or if a composite can be made using alternate footage from different versions… if that exists?

I know you are probably asking yourself… who in the hell wants an extended version of the THAT MOVIE… well… I figured eventually some more extended versions of the Superman movies will probably be on their way at some point so why not complete the collection with every extended version possible?

Thanks in advance… and sorry for the mention of this movie ; )

I would love to see it and if you wanted to go through the pain,maybe I could send my rare Clerks DVD and you can copy and send back? It would make a nice extra. Its a Tour of New Jersey & Shooting Locations for Clerks guided by Dante Himself Brian O'Halloran. Its 64 minutes long. I believe it was filmed in 99 or 00.

I was actually planning on getting that in a trade but you can send me it if you would like.... Yes... once I see how many deleted scenes and etc. there is I will start planning it... however, first I have to complete my Bruce Lee edit and try to peice a story together that could take place between Clerks 1 and 2.... I'll keep you posted on progress... and if you have any ideas or anything Carr.... let me know

This should* be released officially on DVD next year, so hopefully we don't need to wait too long for a great widescreen transfer.

* = Warner has been working on the transfer and restoration for God knows how long, but I'm thinking it'll be worth it.

I am not sure but I think my copy is widescreen. Granted... it isn't the nicest quality... but it is bearable in my own opinion... nice to know someone else besides me likes this flick..
