I've seen some of these before, but...

Does anyone have any Prequel DVD covers using the original poster art?

Excellent work, Cerbero.

It's hard deciding between these covers and the 'Faces' covers that Rikter made.

But since he's who I'm getting the DVDs from anyway, I'll use his cover for the films and Cerbero's supplemental material cover for the extras on disc 4.

Did everyone get that? They'll be a test later.

I can't comment on the first one because I didn't bother seeing it.

And what is this? A sequel to a movie based on an old comic book?
No thanks.

Not to be a wet blanket, but Jay says no SE bootleg discussion.

Of course, the reason is b/c it's announced for DVD release anyway. And since it technically isn't the "SE", I don't know his take on it.

Actually, ignore this post.

I kinda hope they DO add Hayden into that scene.

It'll show the SE drones what it feels like to get screwed by Luca$film.

What would be the advantages of a Dual Layer vs. regular DVDr?

(Sorry, I'm stupid.)

Yes, yes.

Perhaps uploading it to a torrent site would work.

Or you could use conventional selling DVDs.

Heck, just print out the DVD covers, make a crappy box, and call it the DVD we've all been waiting for!

Good luck to you, Laserman. I'd download that in a second!

Once the DVDs come out, we could work out a SUPER O-OT DVD.
*gasp*

We could edit the LD footage into the SE DVD footage when appropriate to block out the parts that *make* it the SE.

For the sake on continuity, the DVD audio should be downgraded to 2.0 stereo. This is actually closer the original is anyway.

This would allow us to fix common O-OT errors, such as Threepio's missing line and the "Close the blast doors" line.

If needed, we could have the LD footage gradually blend in and not be sudden and jerky to keep it looking natural.

If just us common folk with no professional equipment could fit such amounts of data on a single home made DVD is another thing though...

And maybe if the person making it is nice...

they could do it for free??
Lol joking

I still use the Laserdiscs themselves.

I hope to soon buy a bootleg set from Rikter, if my dad will change his mind about bootlegging.

But I'm downloading the torrents for use on the computer.

It's pretty dang close to owning the DVDs anyway. Good enough for me.

(BTW, Could more people PLEASE seed the ANH torrent file??)

I'm not sure but I'm planning on posting in AFTER I post all my rare titles on the torrents

Really? That's awesome! You have so many of those rare treasures, and you'll put them up for us to download.

Thank you!

BTW: On the pre SE trilogy torrent files, thank you to everyone who continues to seed them.

My ESB and ROTJ downloads are going very fast. However, the ANH download is literally moving at 0.01 KB/S.

Can somebody please seed ANH who isn't already? Thanks.

^^^Does the anamorphic set have the missing Leia wielding footage?
Or the TR47 set either.

And they are both the same price, right?

Why not just watch the laserdiscs if you have to change discs anyway???

Cool.

If the price isn't too outrageous, I'd imagine we'll buy one.

I won't rush out and rebuy all my DVDs though. I might rebuy some of my favorites. But DVDs are fine, and the reverse compatibility is a big plus.

DVD will be like VHS has been since DVDs came out.

DVDs will be available similarly to how VHS was even though better technology is out there.

I don't really see any reason to buy HD-DVD. My TV isn't digital, and my movies already look excellent.
