I would like to send out a huge thank you to Meedermow as well!

Rikter, It was my pleasure to do the Banned Bond transfers from the Laserdiscs, and create the core DVD for everyone to enjoy. Your role in this conspiracy was invaluable.

I get a real satisfaction out of making this stuff.

It's great to have found a community of real fans that go out of their way to participate and freely share in the support of quality preservations and vastly entertaining fan edits.

All the great work that goes on around here from numerous contributors of transfers, artwork, research, and ultra rare source materials is astounding! The guys who run http://www.originaltrilogy.com get a big thanks too!

And, please don't think it's going to stop there!


As for the lurking profiteers selling our work, all I can say to you is go *Edit* yourselves!

Only problem is that after he finishes a historical section, Lucas keeps going back and changing the events until they match his TRUE VISION of 20th century history. (e.g., Original Trilogy)

;-)

(sorry, but I could not resist a good bit of Lucas bashing)

What's the quality of your episodes? Are they your copies?

Where did you get the ones broadcast outside of the US?


I say the video image is about an 8.5 out of 10. That's good as they are not from digital masters (laserdisc or DVD)

This was a collection traded to me for a DVD preservation set of my rare Golden Age of Looney Toons Laserdiscs.
I'm sure that person got his set off of Ebay of something along them lines. ;-)

One thing I am not sure of is what the source of the non-VHS released episodes are. My young nephews enjoyed all of them
(so I know there was no errors with the DVDs), but I did not take a good look at them as I had seen most of the original
airings. For some reason, I believe I did see some segments with Old Indy on that 22 DVD set. I'll be sure to take a good look
for you guys when I get to pick up allot of my belongings that have been in temporary storage. I'm sure that the Making of
Young Indy was not on this set, and I would love to see it!
I was hoping someone might have that from the laserdisc set.

I'll update this thread and send you a PM when I have sorce and content info. But as I said above, you guys are free to use any of them for your project.

I always wanted to add the movie music into the YIJ shows, but that is another project all together...

Thanks for responding to my issue, and taking my over reaction with such good spirit.
I have no problems with this project, and you are more than free to use any audio work I've done so far.
Please understand I wish you all the luck with this project.

If I have missed or not responded to any PM's from you or anyone, It could be due to the issue of my PM box being full most of the time.

Again good luck with Highlander 2.

I'll have all the DVD stats and Mpeg codec info up soon in the Fanfiltration release thread.

I have a number of projects (4) coming out all at the same time, so I am a bit overloaded & a bit behind at the moment.

The Extended Pink Panther Strikes Back re-inserts deleted footage that was later used as part of the "Trail" plot line.

Some of the "Trail" footage had to be trimed and a bit of audio adjusted to keep a smooth flow & continuity to the original film.

Scenes put back include:

Balls Costume Shop (with Harvey Korman)
Extended Lift Scene (Dancing in the Rice)
Flight to London (Big Lady / Small Loo)
London Hotel (Do you have for me the "massage"?)

This edit runs a solid 2 hours, is in Digital AC-3 (original mono), 16x9 NTSC, and has no DVD extras.

This most likely will be my only edit related to this series of films.

Mitch, you are an outright liar!

It's sad you must slander my good name & reputation due to the fact that I could not drop everything in my life (including the restoration of my storm damaged home) and give your Highlander 2 project the undivided attention you so desired. When I offered to lend a hand with the resynching of your source DVDs, I told you that it would take a huge amount of time and work. I also let you know that I would need a great amount of time to assist in this work. I've made every attempt to keep good communications on the project. Beyond me saying that I was still working on the sound, there was not much else to say...

This video editing is a HOBBY!

No one gets paid unless you are doing something that violates copyright laws & the rules of this forum. Like most humans, I need to eat, and that means working for real money.

Funny how in the above update about your Highlander 2 project (marked Edited July 6, 2006) , you make no mention that I was able to complete about 85% of the most complicated sound work for you within 4 months. Also, that I've sent you all the work I had done so far for you, and you replied via a PM with great enthusiasm on their quality. Another thing you fail to mention is that after I sent you my completed sound work in early May, that you asked me once again to re-join your H2 project and that you would like for me to forward to you some rare Highlander 2 Press kit video I have in my collection.

Yes, I did reply to you the second week of May on that offer & request. And yet once again I honestly stated how I would like to be involved, but I was not sure how much time I could give your Highlander 2. You must have not liked that answer, due to the fact it's the last contact I had from you.

So now I see you have some fresh help on this H2 project, and I can understand on how you want to keep moving ahead, but it's very rude for you to just slander me and make misleading accusations on my participation. And on a public forum too!

Your stated reaction when no one was "jumping up" to reply to your Superman post is a perfect example of the type of immature attitude I am dealing with.

Some advice: Stop being so paranoid and rushing people who are trying to assist you in what should be a fun hobby!

I'll wish you well and good luck with this project, but stop acting like a real "Looney Toon" and grow up!

what do you think of it ? of course, it is a work in progress...



With the title, I think that ""INTERNATIONAL CUT" is more accurately descriptive.

This DVD will focus on the version of "Thunderball" that was shown in theaters outside the United States.

I used "Forgotten Bond" in the thread title to kind of play off "Banned Bond"

This is the U.K. cover art for the new "Ultimate Edtion"
http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000FIKX90.01._PE30_OU02_SCMZZZZZZZ_V52763239_.jpg

YUCK!

It also looks like the new so called "Ultimate Edtion" will not offer the French mono soundtrack, so it looks like the Fanfiltration edition will have to fill that gap!

Thanks for the support!

This Bond project should be something very special for fans, and I am placing quality of picture and audio at the top of my list.

Let it be known that this is not just a flyby night project, and that I've been working on the restoration of the very rare
International Mono Soundtrack on and off for close to a year now. The audio was taken from a pristine Hi-Fi VHS tape (circa
1984) that was placed by me on to Digital Hi-8 tape last year.

The re-edit of the music soundtrack was done by me close to 4 years ago now, and is just now being added to the video.
(This project has been a dream of mine for a very long time)

The original U.S. mono soundtrack will be taken from a (mono) THX Laserdisc edition of the title (but not the MGM/UA's THX-approved CAV collector's edition boxed set that was re-mixed to stereo surround).

More to come...

I'm thinking of placing this project (with all that audio) on a DL DVD so I can up the bitrate to around 6.? just like they have done on the new U.E. DVDs, but keep the look of the best looking laserdisc transfer.

http://dvdmg.com/img/thunderballpic9.jpg

In order to make this project work with a number of soundtracks, some speed changes are going to have to be done to the video in places to keep in sync with the original Mono audio. These changes will degrade the video files a bit, and i would rather work with newly made AVI files made via the Main Concepts DV codec. I am also seeing a bit more picture info on the laserdisc...

Just an update on the Godfather Edit work.

If I don't include GF Part 3 in the project, the edit of just Part 1 & 2 (with bonus footage) is a total of 8 hours and 54 minutes.

I think I can get this Fanfiltration edit on 3 DVD's (2 DL and 1 SL), and out on torrent very soon if it's even wanted.

Is this just too big for a fan project? Would something this huge even be seeded by anyone?
