Also on rental videos before 1985. I have the first rental UK video from 83, it claims it's stereo but the sound is actually mono. (not the mono mix, but the stereo mix in mono)
There seems to be a lot of clouds in mock-ups. Tatooine shouldn't have that many because there's pretty much no water.
Is anybody still seeding this? I've been trying to download it like a week or so and I'm still at 0%. :/
These sound like those in the prequalize the OT, another great topic. LOL!
Great stuff, Venal. I'd like to see your mattes in full res. They're great.
The Empire Strikes Back.
Thrawn trilogy.
X-Wing and Dark Forces game series (XW, TF, XvT, XWA, DF, DFII). LucasArts' best games ever. Also KotOR is a great game.
Great! Now just waiting for the torrent. :)

Hi.
I just got a Samsung BD-1580 player and I've been watching many DVDs in the past week with it. Weird thing is, there seems to be moments when the picture pixalates and it may pause for a second or two, and after that showing without subtitles, you have to rewind and press play to see them again. I already once changed the player but same thing still happens on all my DVDs. It happens maybe 2-5 times during one movie. What's the problem??
I don't have any BDs to test with it, I don't even have an HDTV yet.

Almost done. I've been out of town most of the past 3 weeks, which has obviously slowed things down a bit. And I've been redoing some of the work on reels 2 and 3. Should be out by the end of summer.
Cool, can't wait.
How's this thing going?

I haven't listen the commentaries since '04, either, but I remember that Kershner was by far my favorite. These movies could use different tracks like some movies, like one is a technical commentary, one by director (well, if Lucas could stop lying, it would be interesting to know what really happened) and one by cast. Imagine a commentary by Hamill, Fisher and Ford if they were in the same room. That would be awesome.
Does anyone know why Episode IV was removed from the DVD? I mean, it hasn't been on any video releases or anything and no one would have complained that it was there if that was the case, we would be just as happy (or unhappy) with the GOUT. It makes me wonder why dig up the scroll from somewhere and edit it to an LD craptastic video. What did LFL gain with that? Are they just showing that "we really have this on film but screw you anyways" and if so, what's the point in that?
Pics?

The shield was on.
I have listened them and I can't make any deep analysis with my 15 year old PC speakers but I did liked TESB soundtrack, there were great calm moments which sounded great. I'll have to burn them and listen them with a stereo system some day.
Enough said.

Btw, Raiders of the Lost Ark didn't even have the Ark in the title here, in English it would be Raiders of the Lost Treasure.
I really like a lot of Hitchcock's stuff too, Rear Window is one of my favorite of his flicks. If you don't mind me asking, where are you from, LexX?
Finland.
Ok, then. It's been a year since the last time I've seen the film and even then I was on a date so I don't remember all the talking. Raiders has its moments but overall for me it is a bit boring. And I just can't stand Marion. But for reference, I like e.g. Hitchcock's Rear Window and I think it's one of the best films I've seen, if someone wants to talk about pacing and how great old films were.

Gaffer Tape said:Well, if you consider The Bible to be "real", then it did have the power to instantly kill anyone who touched it, as referenced in C3PX's post.
I don't, but then it doesn't make sense why the Nazis would want it so bad if it's just gonna kill you.
C3PX said:LexX said:Also the Ark is pretty lame, there's no info about what it really is and what it does and when you open it, it just kills people who have eyes opened. Yippee. People like different things.
This was made back in the good ol' days. When not ever damn thing needed to be explained. The general assumption was that most people would be cultured enough to know what the Ark of the Covenant was and some of the background behind it.
If some movie requires that you have to read the Bible to know what's going on, then fine, I don't care. Outside of Raiders I don't know anything about the Ark, still I have heard about it. And I am sure that in "real" life there is no magic powers which only Raiders has.
fishmanlee said:SE Audio Visual Press Kit? whats that?
It is a DVD which contained SE stuff. I don't really remember what exactly but these interviews were there.
They're longer on SE Audio Visual Press Kit which I downloaded a few years ago.
EyeShotFirst said:Its the same way with star wars. Return of the jedi was pretty much the same setting as A New Hope.
Space Begginning
Tattooine
Death Star
Death Star Blows Up
Celebration
Yeah, and the same people? So? Jabba was on Tatooine, you have to show it. If there's Death Star, it has to blow up -> celebration which did last like a minute. How about the plot, it isn't even near SW.
Nice spelling, btw.

I wonder if this is a generational thing. In the past, movies had their ups and downs - it was called pacing. Nowadays if something isn't exploding or someone screaming every 5 seconds, it's considered slow.
I was thinking the same thing. I was 10 or 11 when Raiders came out, and I loved it. I was about 13 when Temple of Doom came out and I also loved it.
Well, it may be, but stop quoting me as it doesn't apply to me. I'm just saying that I don't like it very much or even that much that I would have bought them on DVD (not just because of Crusade), I have recorded them on VHS though. For me there's only one likeable character in Raiders and that's Indy, it just isn't enough for me. I don't care what happens to anyone else, there is no connection for me. Also the Ark is pretty lame, there's no info about what it really is and what it does and when you open it, it just kills people who have eyes opened. Yippee. People like different things.
