So I guess this is the new myspleen thread then. Yay?
Just be glad the invite request threads have finally f***ing stopped.
I know that Episode Three The New Canon Cut uses deleted scenes.
The new Vader line doesn’t make sense to me. How would it be a good thing to account for your failure to the Emperor?
It means that Krenic would be Sidious’s problem, thusly leaving Vader to do more important things. That and Sidious would most likely kill Krenic for his failures.
What’s the status on this?
I think that this ideal set is doable but would probably need some reworking.
My dream Star Wars Blu Ray set would be: one disc has the SSE versions of each film, disc two has the best quality version of the DEED, the third would have the 1997 LSD(lightly specialised edition) in 720p, the fourth-eighth discs would have endless hours of bonus content, the ninth-twelfth discs would have the 2004,2006, and 2011 versions of each film, with there being a thirteenth disc that would have an official 4K ultra HD restoration and the fourteenth and final disc having a recorded apology from George Lucas to the fans where he admits that trying to suppress the films was mean.
Very nice musicallyinspired. Loving your presentation there it’s a beautiful set. Heres my own I made using NJVC’S set and a box tutorial I found here. I included mini comics and trading cards too for a more retro feel from the 70s / 80s. It also has a slipcover on thick glossy paper and a hard outer box.
Huge thanks to harmy, NJVC and everyone here who helped me.
This set looks fantastic.
It would just be prose. Just getting it written will be more than enough of a task to accomplish!
If you ever were to want a voice actor for your this, I’m just a PM away.
New Asshole, same shit: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Star-Wars-Original-Trilogy-Theatrical-Edition-HD-READ-Description/222783335939?epid=21012531520&hash=item33deebee03:g:zTkAAOSwL81aRnJv
I got my GOUT for $100
I think the idea about entrusting actual prints to an independent film archive is a good one. In terms of public access, though, it wouldn’t help much.
Of all the efforts here, it seems to me that the Despecialized Project fills that niche best.
Someday, though, the Despecialized Project will presumably be finished. This might happen either because it will reach a version that cannot be further improved upon or there won’t be anyone left who wants to continue it.
If the project reaches that point (perhaps decades from now) what will happen to the Final Despecialized Editions?
Catbus’s r/K analogy is apt. And I suppose anything involving the Library of Congress is out of the question, since copyright laws actually threaten the existance of the DEs rather than protect them.
At the same time, it seems inadequate to hang the future of films as significant as the OOT on a plan that amounts to flood the web with copies and hope some of them survive.
Is there some independent digital preservation society that exists now that could keep them online for posterity?
Something with the relative permanence of archive.org but the unofficiality of fanedit.info?
Or if nothing like that exists now, but came to be within our lifetime, could it hypothetically serve as a repository for the future last version of the DEs?
Only time will tell.
how is that something that only college students do?
Well then what are you using them for?
i have all my college students writing click-bait articles about star wars and i am just raking in the advertising money.
I envy you sir. Good luck.

Iowa is rainy and gloomy as all get out
What kind of computer are you using that doesn’t let you select text on a pdf?
Hmmm, second thread I click on and there’s already a hint of an anal probing joke.
These all sound amazing. If these ever get into production I can do voice over work. I would love to help make these come true and watch them when they are done.
I would like if you were to incorporate the Sidious and Plaugies being Vader’s fathers mechanic from the true cannon(legends).
Maybe we can start with un-molesting all those victims
I hate Kevin Spacey for what he has done. I also think that even movies with despicable actors need to be preserved. If we only preserve some things and ignore others then we become the very kind of people that this site was built in defiance of.
I think that these should be preserved.
I’ve decided which episodes I’ll drawing from yo craft my story:
Bombad Jedi/Hidden Enemy (to intro Assajj and the captured Gunray plot)
Movie (Battle of Christophis/Meeting Ahsoka)
Senate Spy/Cloak of Darkness(To intro Clovis and continue Ventress as a threat)
Landing at Point Rain/Weapons Factory/Legacy of Terror/Brain Invaders (to intro Barris and establish her relationship with Ahsoka)
Heroes on Both Sides/Pursuit of Peace(for Grievous and Padme’s story)
Nightsisters (for Dooku trying to kill Asajj)
An Old Friend/Rise of Clovis/Crisis at the Heart(for Padme’s story and Anakin’s jealousy)
The Lost One/Voices/Destiny/Sacrifice (mostly to have Yoda meet Qui-gon’s ghost, resolve the Sifo-diyas mystery, and setting the tone for ROTS)
Sabotage/The Jedi Who Knew Too Much/To Catch a Jedi/The Wrong Jedi(for obvious reasons)
Minus closing credits and the openers of each episode this makes for about 8hrs and 20minutes that I’ve gotta cut down to feature film length. If as I work through this I find that Grievous cannot be meaningfully integrated into the story using TCW footage I’ll cut him entirely and possibly make the opening Anakin’s pursuit of and fight with Ventress on Yavin from CW’03
Why not include the Morris arc?
I finally got rid of my smartphone. What a relief.
Why is that a good thing?
Smartphones are annoying and prolonged use of them is linked to negative emotional states. Also I hate touchscreens and a shitty battery.
I respect that

That said, a recompositing of the original film elements for an OUT wouldn’t offend me, but I also don’t tend to think it is necessary.
People on this site are the only ones I’ve ever seen that claim to be offended by recompositing the original effects. I don’t think they’re bothered by the TNG blurays though.
I am. I’m even offended that To Kill a Mockingbird removed optical grain during push-ins.
You are a user of this site.
EDIT: I may have misunderstood you, I think you’re saying that you’re offended by the TNG blurays and if that’s the case then you should be offended that they exist at all because the original broadcasts were not HD. They were mastered on tape, so doing a hi-def restoration is in itself revisionism (by that logic). If you’re only offended by the effects on the blurays, then your offense is inconsistent because you’re basically saying that it’s okay to restore live action footage to a quality beyond its original version, but not visual effects, even though 480i cassette tape effects would look like absolute garbage on an otherwise HD copy. So are you saying that all TV shows originally mastered on tape should not be released on bluray because it’s ‘cultural revisionism’ somehow?
Not sure if this is my place, but sometimes revisionism isn’t for everyone. I can appreciate a little restoration or revisionism depending on the context. Please stop being so rude.
I’m looking forward to this.
