Finally! 😃😃😃

Well done, indeed.

Anyone have links to the latest versions of Hal9000’s Special Editions or Adywan’s Revisited?
If anyone has them in high quality, I’d be very grateful. I’m not worried about file size.

For Hal’s edits, pm him here using Hal 9000. He’s usually active and always willing to share his works.

I’m not sure. See if this helps…

Thank you, Harmy!

I know you’re just trolling but you’re still wrong. In film restorations, it’s normal to use scans of multiple prints where the best copy has been damaged or destroyed, which is basically what I did here - using a scan of the original negative and replacing damaged parts with scans of other prints. 😄

Hear, hear!

Did you just forget how letterboxed VHS weren’t very common at all? (And we’re talking specifically “letterboxed,” true widescreen VHS doesn’t exist as far as I know).

I did. I was too surprised and excited

What goodwill did you go to, because I’m sure that my mom gave our box set to goodwill.

Merry Christmas to all 😃
I didn’t quite make it to a Christmas release but the final v3.1 master is rendered and uploaded to Poita, who generously offered to do proffessional grade encoding on it. He’s a busy guy, so it may take a little while but we’re almost there 😃

Thank you for the update, and your hard work. Please thank Poita.

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

Delpheas said:

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!"
