Already hit a snag. Storage! I need more.

Better bye a RAID for this one!

I actually made a start on it last night. I've ripped all of the DVDs and am now ready to import them into FCP.

I think I will try to do this project in parallel with 'Star Wars Begins'.

Name ideas?: Blade Runner: Replicated.

It's going to be a hell of a job to do this though. There are lots of differences in these cuts. The best way to view them would be to have the film re-sync where possible to highlight the differences.

Ok, I’m a glutton for punishment. Yep, it’s yet another project. A split-screen comparison of the 1982 Theatrical, the 1991 Directors Cut, the Workprint and The Final Cut. (Screenshots above show early version with both 192 versions, BRDC and Workprint).

As you may know, there are some major differences between versions and this project will highlight them, side by side, for the first time.

11/12/07 - I have already done all of the video editing. I now need to rectify some sound issues caused by ‘seamless branching’. EDIT: Now that the Final Cut is in this mix too, I have more video work to do.

More soon.

Hi all,

Just got the SUPERB Blade Runner 5 disc boxset.

Has anyone got plans to do an “Addicted to…/Wookiegroomer” splitscreen DVD of all the versions?

I would love to see that.

EDIT: Ok, I’ll do it then

Just watched the 3hr+ doco "Dangerous Days".

The best and most thorough "making of" I've ever seen. So informative and full of previously unseen material.

Hey K, I got it too. Only 20 quid! Amazing book isn't it. Thanks for the offer of help as always.

Thanks Skot. I have a rather talented chap looking at the Jabba scene now. I am sure he'll do a great job.

I am currently looking for any Peter Cushing interviews (audio or video) in which he talks about SW. I already have some from a biography programme. But if you have anything else, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Oojason! Good to hear from you mate.

Thanks to Moth3r too, for your kind comments.

I've just got a lead on another 'exclusive'. I really hope this comes off!!

Still nothing back from DWR though

Saw it tonight. Looked amazing! Still such a powerful film. The changes/cut aren't at all jarring and it works so well as a film.

I will attempt to do both SL and DL. Though lets not get ahead of ourselves. The project is NOT finished and will not be finished for some time.

Jambe, were you going to specifically ask DWR about the grappling hook scene, or are you just waiting to see if he brings it up?

I have asked him already, in an email. Unfortunately he hasn't replied yet. I just hope the reason it's taking time is because he is writing lots of juicy info. Then again, I might have scared him off!

Yeah, I always thought that was a bit lazy of Mr Burtt.

Hi all,

Yes, I've got the History Channel doc, but I tend not to use commentary from people if they weren't directly involved in the creation/production of the film.

As for the grappling hook, unless DWR comes up with some evidence that it existed in the lost cut, I am afraid I won't be perpetuating the myth. Logic tells me that by now we would have seen this footage if it existed. I am still open to suggestion but I won't be including a mention in 'Star Wars Begins'. Sorry if that disappoints you

Welcome. It might be worth saying whether you want the NTSC or PAL version, where you live and a quick message about what attracted you to this site. Its more of a community here!

By the way folks I've just seen that my videos on youtube have now had 137,667 views!

Yes indeed. I saw that in an Imax in Dallas in 1997. Great stuff. Shame it has never been released on any home format. I guess it would defeat the object.

You're right, that is a unique shot of Alec in the cantina. Thanks!. The shot of him after he's deactivated the tractor beam is actually a shot from Star Wars!
