TWICE UPON A TIME (Released)
Time
Trust the members here when they say that they WON'T PAY for a preservation, no matter the quality! Fanedits and preservation projects walk a fine line between illegal and legal since they involve using copyrighted materials. What keeps that fine line in place for fanedits is mainly that you OWN the original in some format. The other way for fanedits and the ONLY way for preservations to remain barely legal is simply that it's done NON-PROFIT....which means NO ONE BUYS a preservation project OR fanedit. That means a person who made it AND/OR who is selling it has profited on copyrighted material and has crossed that fine line into ILLEGAL territory.

Who's to say Lucas or any of his employees doesn't still surf through the pages here? This site as well as fanedit.org certainly has gained his attention before.

If you're willing to share your project, then do so WITHOUT selling it and you'll find a community with open arms.

STAR WARS: EP IV 2004 <strong>REVISITED</strong> ADYWAN *<em>1080p HD VERSION NOW IN PRODUCTION</em>
Time
Perhaps some people are just burning the ISO too fast. The first burn made of it was at 8x (my burners can handle 16x speed) and I experienced a weird skipping problem that jumped 2 or 3 minutes ahead and when it did it was out of sync. Weird but when tried burning at 4x, it worked and NOTHING was out of sync.

Just a suggestion....

Now, as much as I'd like to believe in the power of sharing via torrent when it's done correctly (i.e. uploading while downloading, staying on for some time after download is complete to help upload to others in need) it's hard not to agree with someone like dark_jedi how torrents DON'T work out when my statistics look like this:

Connected Seeds: 17 (Max Possible: 17)
Connected Peers: 55 (Max Possible: 208)

Download Rate: 3 KB/s From 4 Peers
Upload Rate: 51 KB/s To 15 Peers

I defy all those guys asking for torrents to tell ANYone here that they are NOT "leeching."

Yet another acquisition:

The Maryland Public Secondary Schools Athletic Association P.S.A. "Proper Care Of A Teenager." As you can see, they weren't afraid to show the ending (which for the time it was in circulation would've ruined it for many).

Not only that, it WAS pretty gruesome to show it on TV at that time period...and if you couple it with the "3rd rule" of the proper care, it makes it even more graphic. See for yourselves:

It'll take adywan a bit to load up the PAL one, but as soon as he does it'll be known here. If some of you will stop posting so many "Where's such-and-such DVD-X version? Torrent/RS/newsgroup please!" -type posts it'll be easier to find it since you won't have to shift through 100 of those posts to find the one where adywan says "I've placed such-and-such DVD-X version at THIS LOCATION."

SilverWook,

The Hardee's records (and subsequently all other records) are pure vinyl which are used at 33 1/3 rpm on the turntable. No "McDonald's Quarter Pounder" song promo cardboard versions here! And we'll spend some time covering the various GREMLINS ripoffs (i.e. Ghoulies, Munchies....etc., etc.).

And by ALL MEANS...we'd LOVE those clippings! I'm gonna direct you to PM ThrowgnCpr so you can get his address and mail those clippings directly to him. When you mail the clippings, please put them between two pieces of sturdy cardboard so they don't wrinkle during mailing. Then use a padded envelope (the kind with bubble wrap on the inside). Approximately, how big are the clippings? It sounds like they are large.

And we'll remember you for helping out.....

Kind Regards,

InvisibleWolfMan

klokwerk,

We are aware of that site (it's one of the first things I found online) and we do hope to compile all references to GREMLINS that we can find clips for (there's even a reference on FRESH PRINCE OF BEL AIR). Thanks for letting us know about the Australian version of The Great Gremlins Adventure ride, and I'll look into it as far as I can. Perhaps someone was smart enough to use their camera back then.

I wonder what else someone will turn up for us?!?

We actually have the records. I've got a set of them I received a few years back that are used but in good condition. I also recently managed to get the entire record set NEW & SEALED. The reason I've gotten the second set is because the unused records might offer a better and much cleaner transfer from record player to .wav format, which will lead to less click and hiss reduction thus preventing audio frequency loss. An expensive way, but the right way to go. I'm sure glad if you can find anything else GREMLINS related, though reave!

Best Regards,

InvisibleWolfMan

A ThrowgnCpr/InvisibleWolfMan co-production - “Fantastic ideas for a Fantastic FanEdit, making the illogical</span> logical.”

Yes, friends you have read correctly. A project born out of a love for two simple things; children’s audio books and the movie GREMLINS. We are currently researching into this project in our spare time (I’ve got a full work load and ThrowgnCpr has not only a full work load but also a few other projects that are always ongoing) and we are aiming towards a release of June 8th, 2009 to coincide with the film’s 25th anniversary. Due to the knowledge of certain existing materials we’ve been able to pool together so far this is already promising to be a multi-volume set. Here is just a minor preview of the materials we’ve been able to assess so far:

• Hardee’s Gremlins 5-part record set from 1984 movie tie-in promotion
• Official GREMLINS read along record which was sold in retail stores
• The vintage 1984 commercial for the Hardee’s record set
• GREMLINS and GREMLINS 2 Topps cards
• GREMLINS and GREMLINS 2 LP soundtracks
• Various GREMLINS books (novelizations, children’s books with drawn artwork)
• Marvel Comic adaptation of GREMLINS
• The Official Movie Magazine
• Vintage 1984 PSA: Proper Care Of A Teenager (an PSA against drunken driving that actually manages to make 30 seconds of various GREMLINS clips seem scary)
• GREMLINS 2 music video
• Footage of the Gremlins Onride at Movieworld Germany
• Various GREMLINS video games footage “play-throughs”
• Brief 3D Gremlin clip
• Vintage 1984 Siskel & Ebert X-RAY clip that focuses on the then-recent PG-13 rating</span>

And that’s just a PREVIEW! We’d like to find out what other materials are out there so don’t be afraid to mention something you’ve noticed or remembered. Perhaps you have an old magazine clipping of a theater ad or maybe a magazine article or better yet, a VHS that has GREMLINS releated advertisements for the films themselves as well as movie related merchandise.

We will create a fanedit out of the Hardee’s read along audio books using the audio from the records and footage from the film. Additionally the unaltered audio from the read along books will accompany a video presentation of the pages from the books (think along the lines of MoveAlong’s bonus feature on The Story of the Empire Strikes Back). Since there are a total of five, it’s possible that the Hardee’s read along book edits will take up 2 discs alone! The rest of the set will be comprised of these other various materials available to us at the time so the possibilities at this point are just endless. We welcome all comments, feedback and suggestions and we’ll try to answer questions when time permits.
