So was a "workprint" shown? That is, how close to the "final product" was the screening?

This is excellent, -1. Congratulations!

Check out the bizarre record album cover in this auction.

I had a few cover versions of the SW soundtrack over the years, but the art on this one takes the cake! We need an archive of these things...

LOL! Are you referring to the one with the dinosaur on it?

I'm interested in doing a fan edit of A Passion Play. Would anyone be interested in helping me out?

I applaud you for staying pure for so long! Impressive. Most impressive.

Thank you, but the truth is that Star Wars was "only a movie" for me until recently.

I didn't see the SEs in theaters because "I [had] that movie at home!"

Ok, another guess for Leonardo: The written word.

I have a new one too:

As I am, I remain.
If I'm young, I remain young.
If I'm old, I remain old.
What am I?

A Polaroid of You_Too ;)

Kotaku.com posted an article regarding Adywan's work on the films. 

http://kotaku.com/5951114/one-mans-continuing-quest-to-fix-george-lucas-star-wars-screw+ups

Just be warned about the comments section. They kind of miss the point.

 

  What I like about it is the Picture at the top with the "slider" comparison of the Official Blu-ray and the Revisited Empire Sticks Back.Just try out the slider. I think that is a good way to compare Movies, Pictures, Etc.   

I didn't notice that. Thanks for pointing it out! I agree that it's pretty cool.

(Are you pat man 1 or pat man 2?)

pat man said:

   No I'm not your a fake.

Don't speak that way about yourself, pat man.

You don't want to lower your own self-esteem. Have some pride, man!

^Hey Necromancer, did you try sending a PM to Zeromancer above.
He's been waiting beside the phone for the last six years LOL

I think I've 8/10 preserved in my cupboard.
Will gladly post the XVIDs next week, and already posted the sample.avi -- look for it.
Unless you change my mind, I probably wouldn't be posting DVD9s because

Oh, I didn't know about that thread.

Don't worry about it, then, but I do appreciate the offer!

Did you see my post? http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/How-to-Calibrate-your-TV-Please-read-the-first-post/post/601463/#TopicPost601463

I really like your Betamax Calibration Guide. Please make more!

pat man said:

No someone else is pat  man. AntcuFaalb, I'm not joking. 

http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/Coming-Clean/topic/14713/page/1/

pat  man is the 1st post, and I'm(the real pat man) the 2nd post. Just compare profiles, for the truth. 

I know they're different accounts, but I think you're pat man 1 and pat man 2!

Come on pat man, we know it's you.

This is old and it's not funny anymore. We know you're "pat man" and "pat  man".

The joke's up.

pat man said:

im glad to hear you like my calibrated for the the The Empire Strikes Back betamac, Aunt Faalb

What's a betamac, pat man?

darth_ender said:

We might want the VCD and SVCD formats in there.  We might want to account for regional difference such as PAL and NTSC.  Maybe we should include TV shows.  What about digital copies of movies you plug in with your thumb drive?  And does it make a difference if the TV is CRT, LED, or LCD?  What if it's a monochrome TV?  Should we still try to color correct?  I want to have the most ultimately calibrated TV ever!  I need answers!  Help me pat man.  You're my only hope.

OK, thanks for the suggestions. I expanded the list and sorted it by launch-date. Can you think of anything else to add?

All we need now is a guide for the following formats:

Home Video Technologies

1. U-matic
2. Betamax The Empire Strikes Back
3. VHS/S-VHS/D-VHS
4. Laserdisc
5. CED
6. VHD
7. VCD/SVCD
8. DVD Return of the Sith
9. HD-DVD
10. Blu-ray The Dark Knight

Television Technologies

1. CRT
2. LCD
3. Plasma

Which formats am I missing? I think if we follow pat man's guides for each of the formats and calibrate in order from oldest to newest, then we'll have the most ultimately calibrated TV ever!

Edit: We need a guide for every combination, pat man.

darth_ender said:

Bump.  In case anybody needs help calibrating your TV, please refer to this thread.  I'd hate to see it get buried under a bunch of unimportant and nonsense threads.

I agree. The suggestion to use the The Empire Strikes Back betamax tape was priceless. I gave it a go last night and my TV is now even more calibrateder than it was before.

Edit: See the next post.

How's it coming along, -1?

Yeah, what he said^^

BUMP

because I'm feeling Entitled today

 

Wrong thread :-)

none and I are waiting for some answers to questions we had for cinch.

Can't wait!

I haven't seen any version of Star Wars later than the 1995 THX release (yes, I haven't seen the SEs or the subsequent re-releases of them)... until now!

Thank you, Adywan, for making my first SE experience amazing!

How's it coming along, -1?

Shhhh, don't ruin the fun!

Well, he is providing us with e-mail notifications for the petition...

Also, can we agree on a name for this guy that isn't ASCII art? I love the art, but it's not pronounceable.

How about WhiteMagic Andrea?

_,,,^..^,,,_ said:

Sorry, the Collector's Edition (the one with the white box set, to be clear, 1995) is clearly NOT smear-free... and also full of DVNR artifacts, like DC and "faces"... so LDDB was wrong... the inner sleeves are similar to the european THX, with the same cover art, but I presume the master used is the same of DC and "faces"...

I'm referring to the Japanese Special Collection from 1986.

SF148-1196
SF148-1242
SF148-1343

This smear-free set was used for the V8, X9, and Dark/Sega preservations.
