That would be freaking sweet...


There's a Drunken Master 2?! Hot-damn, I've gotta see it! Is it better than the first one?

Yeah, Edward Scissorhands would be pretty cool.


What you americans know as "Drunken Master" is actually "Drunken Master 2". The first one was made in 1978.


Correction, what MOST Americans know as "The Legend of Drunken Master" is "Drunken Master II". Drunken Master is just Drunken Master. Ever seen the spin-off Dance of the Drunk Mantis? And believe me, I'd rather own the uncut in Cantonese version preferrably in Anamorphic widescreen-you-ass-because-non-anamorphic-sucks-ass.
How about the Once Upon a Time in China series? Also of course from the original Cantonese/non-dubbed Jet Li Trilogy and the sixth film, Once Upon a Time in China and America. The legendary adventures of Wong Fei-Hung. Wasn't there also a Spartan X comic book series in the late 1990's?

Jurassic Park - 2 Disc Expanded Version DVD cover

Why? The score of Jurassic Park is one of the best themes, it's only appropriate having a Score-only track in it.
And why can't there be a commentary by John Williams either?

Can't I imagine it and simply put it into a fake DVD cover? Did I commit some crime!?


The score-only tracks have commentaries between the music from the composer. Reference Planet of the Apes 2-Disc Special Edition and it has commentary from Danny Elfman between the score. Also goes for Edward Scissorhands and a few others.

Idea: for an edit of Batman Begins
Time
Why would you want to do that? This film is a start of an all new series which does not have any continuity ties with the previous four films from the 1989-1997 series. I think you'd just be wasting your time by trying to tie this new start into the last thereby reducing the efforts of Mr. Nolan. It'd also help if people didn't think that Batman Begins is a "prequel" and start knowing it's a whole new series. Just wish that this would get into peoples heads. What's in the 1989-1997 series I think you can futz around with all you want but until the new series has established itself as a trilogy first then I'd support you in doing this. Other than that I just think it's futile. Sorry for being negative but this kinda stuff just irks me. I apologise.

James Cameron's Battle Angel - the beginning of a live action anime feeding frenzy?
Time
I'd rather go for the originals Bubblegum Crisis and Bubblegum Crash rather than Bugglegum Crisis Tokyo 2040 first in my opinion.
Here are some anime turned into live-action film titles I recall.

Crying Freeman (1995) - Starring Mark Dacascos and Directed by Christophe Gans of Brotherhood of the Wolf fame. Available on DVD in Region 0/All in NTSC.

Fist of the North Star (1995) - Guess you could look this up on imdb.com

There are some others but I figure it'd be more interesting for others to look.

Idea: Wing Commander III & IV cut scene footage - plus other bits wanted.
Time
Thank you kindly.
I do have Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II and curious as to how I should go about extracting the cut scenes from that. Should I go 'explore CD'? Any help will be most appreciated.

EDIT: I forgot to mention I have the 4-disc 1997 Blade Runner video game for PC and will see what I can do to extract stuff from it if it's possible...

I’m not entirely sure if this should go in here or other since this concerns video game footage.
Anyway, I’ve been browsing various Wing Commander sites and have been reading up on all the cut scene footage thay shot for both video games with actors such as Mark Hamill, John Rhys-Davies, Malcolm McDowell, Thomas F. Wilson and many others. I’m also interested in seeing the outtakes/behind-the-scenes footage from both games including Wing Commander V: Prophecy (forgot to include that one in the message title) via extracting them and putting them to a DVD-R if need be. Also the making-of CD-ROM from WC III would be the proverbial icing on the cake. Trust me, if I had access to the games and the CD-ROM I’d have already been done with this project and have been more than eager to share the duties.
