ESN- yea, I was meaning on the new transfer that hasn't happened yet off this "2nd workprint" or whatever it's labeled now. That I will donate to, as opposed to other things sometimes discussed in this thread (NOT going there atm).

Like I said, I'll help the new as-of-yet-done transfer as long as what I donate promises me copies of the final thing.

Personally, I have no problem helping drop a few bucks on this transfer, as long as that Guarantees me a copy of the final product in dvd and whatever other format it's done to at NO ADDITIONAL COST. I'll happily send $20-$40 as long as I get my copies of the resulting product for free.

Personally, I think the Bakshi LotR movie is terrific. Most people hate that he used rotoscoping in it, but it's a technique he used in almost all his films. With the exception of the fact that it ends at the end of The Two Towers, I think it's a wonderfully crafty film (I'm a big Bakshi fan).

Of course, that's just my opinion....I could be wrong....

Response to douchebag on ebay:

Considering that I just downloaded this HD2DVD conversion (which was free from the dvd author) and have spoken to the guy who did this conversion several times, I think I might know a thing or two. This film is not on dvd in any country right now, and if you paid for it on dvd you got ripped off. Do Not sell fan edits or preservations.

Douchebag's very laughable reply:

why don't you spend your time watching your downloaded version and enjoy getting spyware and quit discriminating against me I didnt do anything to you.

fuckin douchebag.....

I sent off a message to the ebay seller:

Why are you selling what is a fan preservation? This dvd was given out for free so you should not be selling it. Some people in the fanedit/fan preservation community are threatening to contact ebay and lucasfilms about you selling this dvd. The dvd authorer made no money off of doing this and did it only to preserve it and you should not be making any money either. Please pull this dvd off since you didn't buy it so you shouldn't make money off of it.

I got this reply:

Don't act like you know anything this was not given out for free...wanna proove me wrong buy a copy.

I'm tempted to reply back and say "If you bought this, you got suckered!" lol

Partial Superman Returns review:

I received my 2 raw sl dvdrs of ADM's Supes Comes Back edit last night, and dropped them on my laptop this morning to burn on DL and to rar for RS upload. I'm 23 minutes into the movie now, and lemme tell ya, ADM should be a professional editor. Before anyone jumps in with "oh, you're all about being on ADM's wang" or such nonesense, I have to make a point. I like fanedits. Some work, some don't, but I generally like fanedits. Some of my favorite editors are Spence, Darth Editous, ocpmovie (if you wanna call his Classic Editions "fanedits") and ADM, amongst many others I can't name atm. I know when I get an ADM edit, it's going to be worth the time it took to get it and will be worth my time watching.

23 minutes into this movie, and it's a totally different film then what is on my shelf. First things first, we get right to the Big Boy Scout coming home. Credits finish, we get a pan down to Ma Kent washing dishes, and BAM, Clark crashes his new car all over the yard (yes, i'm using an analogy). Only AFTER we see Supes do we go to the sequence with Lex. Then it's back to Clark again, right into a seamless transition of what I think is a deleted scene (I only have the 1disk official dvd). Then back to Lex in a great transition, back to Clark with that seamless edit of a deleted scene (I really need to rewatch all of my official SR dvd again, because I've seen 2 scenes back to back). Only that little in, and this edit has already made this a better film.

After I watch the entire movie, I'll post a full review, and then probably later tonight, I'll begin the "rarring up for Rapidshare upload" process.

Once the RS upload is complete, I will be posting links to it on the RS threads at faneditforum, so keep a look out during the next couple of days.


*Edit: Full Review Below*:

Now THIS is a proper sequel to the Superman films I know and love (namely 1&2). ADM has done another truely awesome edit to this and it makes me proud that I own Superman Returns on dvd.

Yes, Stalkerman is taking right out of that sumbitch, and if you didn't know it, you'd never know about the misadventures of Stalkerman. Now it is Clark being worried about the woman that he loves, not pining after some chick he can't have by going to her house and looking up her skirt through the elevator.

The deleted scenes incorporated into the film are so seamless that this will probably be the extended director's cut that is officially released, or it should be.

The isloated score is a very nice addition to the film, as that track alone is worth seeing to see how well the score compliments this film.

As stated before, the Smallville sequences are short and to the point. We see Clark crashing the at that farm right off the bat, and then we get to Lex swindling the old lady (and what looks like a shortened version of that). When we go back to Smallville, it's a combo regular/deleted scene, back to "What's Lex Doing?", and back to a regular/Deleted scene from Smallville. Then onto Metropolis. Smallville is not drug out like in the theatrical version.

As I stated, I only own the 1disc dvd of SR, so I have no knowledge of all the deleted scenes for this. I don't know if Kumar speaks in any of the deleted scenes, but I don't recall seeing him speak anymore in this then in the theatrical, save maybe one line if it was from him. Which is a shame, but it really wouldn't add much if he did speak.

As I said, the scenes that I did notice were deleted scenes were put in so well that you really didn't notice a difference. I can't stress how well this is enough. Out of all the ADM edits I have and have scene, it still amazes me how well he does this.

This edit makes a perfect addition to your ADM collection...or your fanedit collection....or your dvd collection on a whole. Highly recommended as are all ADM edits.

the sounds is a little off in that song when I compare the Mentor dvd with my dvd that was made from a pal vhs -> ntsc via convertor. The video in the Mentor dvd blows the old dvd I have away.

the pal VHS tape was pulled out of the factory shrink wrap, played the one time through a pal -> ntsc convertor and the colors were manually adjusted at the beginning of play.
