Both thanks to my good man Darth Enzo there.

Btw, is the Life of Brian the Criterion deleted scenes edited back into the Criterion transfer?

Yes. 4 of the 5 Deleted scenes from Criterion edited into the Criterion transfer. (One scene was just TOO bad to restore).

Doctor M, the IMAX release of Aladdin was cancelled, but it had nothing to do with the video release schedule. Simply put, not enough people were going to the IMAX shows to make the whole thing profitable, so Disney pulled the plug. It's a pity, because Fantasia 2000 and The Lion King both looked awesome in IMAX (and they were consistently sold out), and the wife and I were both looking forward to big-ass Aladdin.

I thought it was the Genie who had the big ass.

Up next: Remember The Titans. I've been working on it all night and I think I have a good rough edit. I thought this movie was going to be really hard. Then really easy. Turned out to be somewhere in the middle. The scenes concering Yost's daughter Sheryl were trickier than I thought, as there was a subplot where she was picked up at the beginning of training, then dropped off at the end, when her mom leaves for good. But in the theatrical cut, Sheryl was at training camp as a water girl. I finally reworked the deleted scenes, dropping the "pickup/drop off" part of the subplot, and turning it into one big "I'm moving on, goodbye" scene.

Still, the best scene is Sunshine Strikes Back. That never should have been deleted, as it was a brilliant way to revisit that plot thread and bring it to an awesome close.

Movie now clocks in right around 2:00. Exporting the streams now, then I have to start re-editing the audio properly to match the rough cut. Man this was a good movie. I watch it every fall. Go Titans!

There isn't much difference in I, II and V when it comes to SL vs DL. DL maintains the original, unrecompressed picture quality from the source disc, but that's about it. VI has two other audio tracks and the unrecompressed video as well, but they're merely stereo and commentary options from the source disc. IV is the only one that has genuine audio benefits in the form of all those different audio mixes. The 1997 mix that Neil S. Bulk dug up is a gem. I just felt that IV needed some extra-special treatment.

Answer seems pretty clear: If the editor wants it to be seen in DL, then it should be submitted in DL. Fair 'nuf.

I'll wait to hear from DAYV about question #1.

couple of questions:

1) Do the bonus features need to be on the same disc as the main feature?

2) Are the films going to be screened on TV or on computer? I'm wondering if a DL submission should be sent on two SL discs to cut down on costs.

Glad to hear it's being enjoyed. Wasn't sure if it'd piss people off or make them laugh. The latter was the intended effort, but I called it "Heresy" because I suspected the former might happen. I didn't totally go overboard either. It's great that you can sometimes go five minutes without an interruption, just getting you back into the film, then you get another one.

Chalk it up to years of watching MST3K.

Maybe Naboo should be changed to Alderaan, so we give a crap about it when it's blown away in Ep IV.

*sigh* ... the only net around when I was 13 was a fishing net.

But that alone provided me the tools to cut down the tallest tree in the forest with ... a herring. So Nyah!!! Or should I say: Nee!!! Nee!!! Nee!!!

Rehnquist has a lifetime of work on the bench to cite, while Roberts is a relative neophyte. I am surprised Scalia wasn't promoted up while Roberts is tapped to fill the O'Connor seat. I guess Bush realizes that 2 confirmations will be easier than three. More importantly, this ensure conservativism in the top spot for the next 35 years. Political genius. Then again, Hitler was a political genius too.

for those of you that are skeptical of such things, this is legit and the guy is very trustworthy, i wouldnt post it if that wasnt the case. as for me, well i would hope that the various people ive sent discs to and traded with on this board will back me up.

It's a clever idea. Charity that gives the donor something in return as well.

Great. More Coruscant menu shots. We had three new worlds prominently featured in this film (Kashyyyk, Utupau, and Mustafar) but we get yet another round of Coruscant. I'm surprised they haven't wedged Tatooine in there too. It plays so significantly into the plot and all.
