Obviously, there are no links to download or acquire projects on this site. If you are unsure on how to try to acquire the fan preservation projects or fan edits etc…

“take the time to look around to see how this place works - and doesn’t - before posting requests for projects on here - thank you” as oojason said. Read through the Welcome thread, About, Help, ‘How Do I Do This on the OriginalTrilogy?’ threads and you’ll soon work it out, just like everyone else on here over many years has.

The ‘How do I do this?’ on the OriginalTrilogy.com thread in the ‘General Assistance’ section of the site is especially useful.

I think I am being whooshed or trolled by you? If not, maybe ask someone else or a moderator for assistance 😃

^ Very cool. I hadn’t realised it was a pumpkin until you posted the larger image, I thought it was the sun reflecting in the visor! Did you make it yourself?

I think oojason said the past that if you leave the site, then refresh the cache (hit CTRL & F5 on most web browsers?), come back to the site, and any newly changed avatar should then appear. Otherwise it takes a few days for avatar changes to appear.

‘The Spice Den: A Star Wars Podcast’ has made a cool doc sheet for some basic information on each of the 40 stories for the ‘From A Certain Point Of View - The Empire Strikes Back’ book, out on November 10th:

the ultimate demo disc that is on there wasnt released, and i mean this. https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Help-looking-for-THX-Ultimate-Demo-Disc-now-found-and-released/id/66249

 
As said in the other thread - yes, it was released…
 

Memory_001 said:

this wasnt even released, just to tell you. this was for some reason on the index, this shouldnt be on here.

 
It may be worth reading through the entire thread, it shouldn’t take long… and you’ll see it was indeed released:-

Hi Memory_001

The An Index Of Projects & Help Thread for Star Wars Preservations… has 4 project threads (all have released projects) for the THX disc, has information on how to search for content on the site, and other useful stuff too 😃

The official Star Wars website now has a ‘crawl’ for the High Republic:

^ from https://www.starwars.com/the-high-republic

It appears they are still aiming for a January 2021 release date 😃
 

Someone on reddit also made up a Star Wars film style crawl of the above: https://streamable.com/n955xt

Did you enjoy the screening? Was it the 2011 version that was shown? Did you get a good spot? How cool was it to see an OT film on the big screen again?

Sorry for all the questions, I am both curious and envious 😃

Coronavirus: Global Covid-19 death toll passes one million:

Edit…

‘Donald Trump’s coronavirus journey, from Covid is a “hoax” to needing supplementary oxygen. How a disaster unfolded. Sound on.’:-

https://twitter.com/ByDonkeys/status/1313436448608129025 - with a 10 minute timeline video since the start of the year.

Chilling.

I am so sorry to read that, ooJason.

I can only wish you good luck for the future and also send you deepfelt thanks for all you have done on here over the years. I remember you being a big part of the PIF movement on here many years ago and helping many all over the world (including me on my old account) get the latest quality LD to DVD transfers of the OOT and other cool Star Wars projects through the mail.

Then helping members out in general on here, becoming a moderator during some pretty turbulent times both on here and for Star Wars fandom in general, all while still managing to help people out.

The Force Is With You.

Thank you for all your efforts.

Fantastic twitter thread on some of Ron Cobb’s work - https://twitter.com/TheSpaceshipper/status/1308071692296740864

I see that and need to go watch the whole thing again 😃

That ‘Hunted CG Short’ was very good, I hope they come up with a similar video for the Rebels as well.

^ Well worth taking the time out to give this article by doubleofive a good read, and then his other posts below it from the link above.

A really good read, and worthy successor to doubleofive’s excellent article on Wired.

I really hope it gets people sitting up and taking notice, and asking Lucasfilm those awkward questions they’ve been avoiding answering for far, far too long.

She killed Joffrey. Respect. (Also one of the best Bond girls)

RIP Diana Rigg

What a cool idea in keeping the box safe 😃

If anyone knows where 4K sleeves could be found or printed out, or how to make custom sleeves of them, please let me know as well.

Cool article.

I am not sure if it the correct link or what you are looking for, it could be the content that doubleofive preserved from the official star wars website about the changes made to the 2004 dvd version?

https://starwarsviscomp.wordpress.com/viscomp-original/

We know you are a big fan of Palpatine, you asked about it here a couple of weeks back 😃

Info Wanted: Edits that focus on Palpatine?

Maybe it is worth going through the Index thread to see if there any Palpatine-focused edits?

If there is not any, how about making one yourself? Or formulating a few ideas of how a Palpatine edit could work?

Congratulations on finishing v1.0 of your project El Barto 😃

‘Star Wars Mouse Droids Fan Builds!’ - 7 minute video - from ‘Adam Savage’s Tested’

‘Build Your Own Star Wars Mouse Droid’ - 5 minute video - from ‘Eric Lindenberg’

I thought the Expanded Universe included games and music? It appears the mods are adding to this by including docs, fan films, homages, cons & events, theme parks & rides, fan clubs & memberships into it (mainly fan created content or content about us fans).

ooj said as much above:

The Expanded Universe…
'For talk on the books, comics, gaming, soundtracks & music, documentaries, fan films, homages, cons & events, theme parks & rides, fan clubs & memberships…’
 

For the new and coming Disney+ releases; does the ‘Beyond the Original Trilogy’ section not cover those already?

‘Prequel & Sequel Trilogies, Anthology films, Holiday Special, Ewok movies, the various animated & live action tv series, Rian Johnson films, and other future content.’
 

The mods don’t seem to get annoyed by members creating threads in the ‘wrong section’, they just seem to move them across. Sometimes a quick look through the Index threads is a good indication of where a thread could likely go.

Maybe it’ll be made more clear after the ‘The Expanded Universe & General Star Wars Discussions’ section has been split up?

oojason said:

Edit: it turns out there really isn’t enough traffic / threads / talk on the Prequels and Sequels to warrant their own sections. Though a combined forum (along with some of the other GFFA releases) would likely be the way to go, and see what happens from there…

From the Some proposed changes to the categories in the Star Wars section of the OT.com thread

A shame this is so, but we are the OriginalTrilogy.com afterall, and the vast number of conversations in the Star Wars section are still about the OT 😃

I imagine there will be a few comparison conversations between the ST and OT soon, or ST vs PT, as people take in TROS and its place in the main Saga & being final the part of the ST.

act on instinct said:

Is it time for a new thread? Seems to be getting more into comparisons between the whole saga now, less specific to TROS. Think it’s a good time for that since the dust has sort of settled.

I hope so. As you say, we have had some time to take in the finished Sequel Trilogy and it would be interesting to read members’ thoughts and viewpoints on each Trilogy, or all the films within the main ‘9 film Saga’.

Especially the plus points, new insights, new connections & also new reasoned criticisms, and not just the previously repeated negativity.

Hello jidaigekijunkie 😃

That is an a great post and also close to my relationship & thoughts with Star Wars (and probably many others here as well).

You came back, wiped a few of your previous “FUCKING CRINGE POSTS”, said little else, and then announce you are leaving?
