Looking forward to it!

How is it?

No, I can’t, I absolutely can’t. Trying to do it causes my computer to lock up entirely. Poita, I am BEGGING you to fire me!

I’m going to take another look at it today. It’s been far too long, I’ve shirked my duty long enough.

Where should I go to make a donation?

I’ve donated $2. Let me know if you need more.

Yeah, that was me. Also, the Kino Lorber Blu-ray has the original TV version as well as the “Theatrical” version. I’ve personally decided to try and tackle the task of restoring the rough cut myself. I don’t know if I’ll finish it, but Lord knows I’ll try!

Ooh, I’ll have to check that out when I get the chance!

Um, in the future, I’d suggest you actually do some research, because Ego Trip WAS released on DVD. Not only that, the entire show was available to own on DVD and you can watch it via Amazon UK. “Cartoon Network refuses to release older Cartoon Network TV materials” indeed.

Well, there is that one cartoon they haven’t released…

.

The image is broken. But I did have that idea once, I’d like to see how you do it!

Okay, watching those clips, it does seem pretty cool. If it was the original versions of the films, I’d care more, but what’re you gonna do?

This page has snippets of high-res poster art, including two I haven’t seen before.

Oh, there’s a new version? Can I get a link for that?

Oh, I remember the original audio, I had a recording on tape of it! Where can I find this?

Looks pretty good!

So 2001 is coming out on UHD. What are we doing about the film audio?

You should do the rest of the Star Wars Saga, or not.

Qui-gon Jinn’s lightsaber (Green)TPM
Mace Windu’s lightsaber (Purple)AOTC
Obi-wan’s lightsaber (Blue)ROTS

Kylo Ren’s lightsaber (Red)TFA

I don’t know which lightsaber to use for TLJ, as Luke’s Blue lightsaber is used for ANH, and his green one is used for ROTJ.

TFA will be easy, since Egmont have a cover for that too. The others might be a bit more difficult though.

Lovely stuff! There’s only one thing: you misspelled “Long” on the back cover.

Here comes a new one: I liked the look of those junior novel covers they have in the library. So I did one based off that. The gimmick is that each film has their own coloured case.

How about this?

(Nobody seems to notice that I replaced George’s name with Alan Smithee, because apparently that’s what he’d have wanted…)

I came out of it feeling… empty. Sure, it’s enjoyable on its own merits, but the excess comedy and frankly quite drawn-out cop-outs leave something to be desired. I didn’t hate the Pogs, they were just sort of owls without beaks. I like owls.

“I can’t believe I’M gone.”

Also, Ade Edmondson was in it, apparently! He’s always good.

Could take years to pull this one off. Can it be done?

Yes, where do we find this again?

Disney is no longer in talks to buy 20TH Century Fox. 😦

I’m not surprised, Fox is like the only thing that matches their power.
