I've worked on it for about 7 hours today.  I have a list of 64 issues that I'd like to fix before release.  The majority are audio related and most of those should be relatively easy to fix.  8 are FX related, 4 of which will be labor intensive.  

I'll see how many I can get done tomorrow.  :)

 

Awesome man! looking forward to it ;-)

Yes! I got it, I never put it up? 

I'll get on that as it kicked butt.

Thanks

Does anyone have a link to a Dune: Third Stage edition DVD cover?  I'd like to get one if at all possible.  The d/l I have didn't include one.  Thanks!

you can download a cover over at that fan edit dot orgy site....

Hye I like the rought draft on youtube, nice job

Sounds like a great project. Looking forward to it all. ;-)

The image of Superman was created by Jim Bowers of CapedWonder, but it was used in the lenticular case for The Ultimate Collection box set- which he was involved w/ in creating the art design so I think it's pretty much open game.

 

Hey, this place is swell. I had never been here before... I think. I found it because I was looking at my website stats and noticed links coming from here. I can't wait to see some of the SW edits.

 

 

 Ya! This place is very cool! I have been a member for several years now and it gets better every year. Some fans have done some amazing edits with Star Wars as well as other fan edits and restorations. Like your site, it's also a cool place to hang out and talk with people who enjoy the same things as you do. Glad you bacame a member!

 I didn't use any of Caped Wonders finished images, that is certain. My cover is an original creation using a photo of Superman and a Stock photo of a sky. I have seen the image of superman on several different backgrounds on several different websites. I am assuming the superman image is a WB pic? Unless of course somehow CW owns the rights to certain Superman imagery, which I find doubtful.

 What brought this up anyways? Was their a complaint? or does CW have the market on fan imagery?

 No complaint, we just have to watch it!

 Thanks man! I new you already you were an honest fellow!

Thanks for the post, Alex!

 

Edskizzorhands: Was that art from Capedwonder? Just checking because we don't want to use his art without permission. Thanks!

 

 

As far as I know it doesn't come from CW. The image of Superman I found on someones myspace page through a google image search. And the sky background comes from a stock images site I used. So no "stealing, or intention to steal" from CW went down. I am a big advocate of fanworks getting proper credit, so if any images are ever used, I try to get permission for them.

 Hey Ed,  I am sure if you used any of Capedwonders art it wasn't with intention. I know you very well and you are an excellent artist, just make sure you double check on photos you may be using because without proper permission we are not original. Thanks man!

This is the first I've heard of this project, Mitch. I was actually going to start it in '07, but I found out almost a year ahead of time that the complete soundtracks to the films were to be released, so I waited to have a definitive source for the music.

WB recently released a 4 in 1 dvd set of the SM films (http://video.barnesandnoble.com/search/product.asp?r=1&EAN=883929035410&ourl=DVD%2FSuperman%2D4%2DFilm%2DFavorites) which contain the theatrical version along w/ the original sound. It's cheaper than getting the mega sets of STM. Maybe you can use that as your sound source.

Anyways... ummm... yeah.... Keep ut to good work and I'd love to see your edit once finished.

 Hey Alex,

WOW! its so cool to hear from you.  Yourself, Superman homepage, Jim Bowers of Capedwonder and Supermancinema have been instrumental throught the years keeping Superman front and at attention to the Superman community. I am really excited about the top notch project you've got going over on your website (PLUG -  www.supermanii.com) Thanks so much for the little hint on the WB release and thanks for the great comments.

Coming from you, that means a ton.

Stay Super! 

 Mitch

I was out having dinner tonight, and that same song from the trailer and movie starts playing over the music system! And this was the only pop song in a long stretch of Christmas music. Spooky! ;)

 Creepy! I have had this song stuck in my head for days, lol!

I want the Extended Laserdiscs version of Poltergiest II - The Other Side - it has some deleted footage of the Christian evil dude tuaniting the family!

Have you tried "restoring" the left and right sides by recycling the background from earlier in the same shot?  As far as I can recall, it's pretty static...

 

-Jeph

 That is an interesting idea! Fanfiltration is that possible?

This art was created by one of the very nice people at supermanfanart.com. That person has allowed me to post it.

I love this kids particular art.  edited

I beg your pardon for not posting sooner after downloading and watching the DVD. It think it's great. Best version of the film so far. And I applaud the work. Well done and Cheers!

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.....

I have the Superman Blue Box Soundtrack Collection... I could provide anything from that. The source for the score of "Superman The Movie" in this collection is different to the older release. Better quality.

Thanks Klok,

Really appreciate that buddy!

WIP coverart... From Edskizzorhands

Wow! Thanks! We are still working on this project as I type.

This is gonna be boss. I am still interested in what you are going to do with 83' extended tv broadcast of the needle injection scene with the Nurse/ Doctor and Checkov. Are you going to cut this scene out?

Earlier this year I had a European clip in widescreen from (so called widescreen broadcast of the TV version) a photo I sent you, we later compared the photo with the fullscreen and found that it was cropped footage much like the BTTF DVD release. So in the end this scene only exists in fullscreen.

Fanfiltration are you going to crop this footage or cut it all together? I am actually hopeing you crop it for reasons of that I don't want any scenes removed. if you are to have a true TV broadcast on widecreen to have this scene missing would be bummer for me. But I would live.

 

Thanks for the response.

I'm keeping an open mind about this shot at this point.  I'm doing a version with the shot removed and another with it cropped. We will run it for a few people and see how it plays.

 

 Thanks for your response Fanfiltration.  Again, I am looking forward to the cut either way and I will respect your call on the scene. You know what you are doing! :-)

I sent you an email about this, but I have a recording of a 2002/03(?) broadcast on VHS. It's not in great shape, I recorded it in SLP mode, but I can send you my original tape (if I didn't throw it away yet...) if you want that for any reason.

You are always there to lend a hand when needed ReverenedBeastly. A true team player ;-)
