Yay!

Thank you for the update and samples. Your attention to detail is awesome.

That’s it.

There’s a recent post on fanedits Reddit page about Despecialized having been mentioned on a recent Conan O’Brian podcast. Hmmm…

I’ve been having trouble trying to get the Google Drive / Uloz files to work for the 1080p version. It keeps telling me that the final file (part 6) is corrupted. Any ideas as to how I could fix this?

Try the mega links. If it works, then leave a comment for Harmy on the Despecialized Facebook page.

Hoping it can be enjoyable, even with all the “shop” stuff in your mind.

LOL

Check out <<MY MP4Box GUI>>. It can be found at videohelp.com. It’s free and works on Windows. It can demux and MUX mp4s, as well as split and join them. You can MUX several (I’ve added up to 4) audio files — aac, ac3 but nothing higher, e.g. no DTS, FLAC, etc. It also allows for muxing of SRT subtitles; I’ve not tried any other sub formats. No re-encoding needed.

Thank you Harmy for your work.

Harmy - thank you for the update.
Bluto - thank you for the update, as well.

@adywan Thank you for your continued hard work, and for this update.

Are there any fan edits of the Original Trilogy and Prequel Trilogy where it’s solely Extended Editions instead of wonky as fuck alternate edits?
check out Bobson Dugnutt at fanedit.org for several

I got to see TV’s Frink’s The Ridiculous Menace, and now, I’m craving to see Episode II. But I’m having a hard time finding it.

I’ve also wanted to see the Heavy Star Wars edits, but I also can’t seem to find them either.

Send Frink a pm at fanedit.org

HAL’s RotJ doesn’t have ghost Hayden though. Someone still need to make a canon complient version.

Sorry. I can’t think of any others

NotTheDri0ds said:

Another older set of fan edits I’ve been trying to find are MagnoliaFan’s Episode I and II Edits, Balance of the Force and The Clone War, as well as maybe their recreation of the New York version of the Phantom Edit, known as The Phantom Re-Edit?

Also, I’ve sadly had little luck with acquiring Attack Of The Phantom, I’ve been unable to locate the recommended reddit thread, and have no idea where to find and contact Possessed (mostly due to me having zero clue how to use fanedit.org lmao).

Hope my dumb pursuit for ancient edits isn’t too annoying.

For Magnoliafan, check out fanedit(dot)info.

For requests on fanedit check out their “edit request resource list” under the “Trades and Requests” page. If unfamiliar with them, make sure to read the site’s rules about posting requests, websites, etc. Hope this helps.

I’d like to know if there are fan edit versions of the Special Editions of the Original Trilogy that are basically the Special Editions of 1997, but with the addition of Ian McDiarmid as Palpatine, Luke’s green lightsaber, ghost Hayden and the 2011 victory celebration, and maybe without the scene of the kiss between Luke and Leia.

Check out Hal9000’s Custom Special Edition. The info for his works can be found at fanedit site

Does anyone have a copy of Attack of the Phantom? Found The Phantom Edit ages ago, but want to check out its sequel as well.

You can try looking for “Does anyone have Star Wars - Episode II: Attack of the Phantom?” on the fanedits Reddit page. (Using the quotes may help zero in on the page faster.)
Also, look into “Star Wars - Attack of the Clones (Attack of the Phantom Recreation by possessed).” It’s listed as, 'It’s the same classic edit of Attack of the Clones by the Phantom editor, but now presented in HD!"

JKMaxx said:

Heyo! Does anyone have a copy of or link to the latest version of tangelo1023’s canon Labyrinth of Evil and Darth Plagueis edits, please and thanks?

Have you tried contacting him by P.M. on this forum?

AspiringCreator said:

Not sure if this is the right place to ask but does anyone have or know where I can find Bobson’s theatrical reconstruction of Revenge of the Sith? I’ve been going out of my way to get the closest approximations to the theatrical cuts at least until TN1 or someone fully decides to give them the 4K77 treatment and I really only need ROTS to complete them.
Your best bet is to contact Bobson via a P.M., at fanedit(dot)org

Hello, Does anyone know anything about Harmy’s Super Special Edition (I think that’s what he said)? Harmy hosted a live YT stream today showing work he’s doing for Despecialized 3.0. In it he said something about a project he had that was before his partly Despecialized titled Super Special Edition. Does anyone have any info about it, and/or from where I may be able to acquire it?

Thank you for the info.
I had the faces VHS box set years ago, that I bought brand new at Tower Records. I didn’t make much of it then. I gave them to one of my children some years later. He doesn’t remember what he did with it. It was in a large rectangular box, a sliding case. It was sweet.

This is it. I had no idea. I wasn’t looking for it. In my excitement I neglected to look it up.

Did you ever get excited because you came across an old tape or disc of Star Wars only to be let down?
My grandson and I went to a local Goodwill to check out the dvds when my grandson says, “Look… Star Wars.” He hands me a box set. It took a few seconds for my brain to comprehend that I was holding a '92 OT VHS box set. The cases are in rough shape. The tapes seem okay. $10 later, I am stoked. My grandson keeps looking at me and laughing because I keep saying “Yeeeeeesssss!” We get home, I get him settled, rewind IV, press play and…NOOOOOO!!! It’s Full Screen. SMH. A quick look at the beginning of each tape shows me that they seem to be in good, maybe okay condition. I will, of course, still watch them, but it just won’t be the same.

Thank you ! I’ll read it all !
BTW : I’m looking especially for the LD subtitles that I couldn’t rip (was it possible from a LD ???)…

EDIT :
I read this thread but it seems so speak only about the 2004/2006 DVD release, as I thought at 1st…
So I’m still looking for the LD audio commentaries…

regards

I have looked around online for commentary subtitles and found nothing. In some unrelated reading I came across something curious, possibly of interest to you.
If you or someone you know runs a Linux os, you could check out Kdenlive. It’s a free, open-source video editing software that, according to the introduction page, has “subtitling feature with automatic speech to text conversion.” There is a Windows version, but it has issues; a MAC fork is a work-in-progress – see the introduction page for more information. I hope this helps.

I don’t know if any of them will help. Check out “12 Best Transcription Software to Convert Audio to Text” at fossmint

“GOUT” stands for George’s Original Unaltered Trilogy; it refers to the 2006 dvd bonus disc release.
