Time to find those hip-high wader boots....  :)

I dunno how, but my bookmark for this thread got misplaced!  Time to catch up!  I look forward to seeing the next upload!

As someone that enjoys preserving old vinyl and tape, consider this thread bookmarked.  :)

Before seeing the movie, I got the comic adaptation which featured a scene after the bacta tank with the medical droid taking a bandage off of Luke's face.  I saw it in the theater and said "that's not what it looked like in the comic book!" Other people who saw the movie at the same theater commented on the scene as well referring to the bandage as a "sheet of ice."

The footage of the bandage removal is indeed included in one or two of the early trailers, before the massive task of cutting the film together began.  It is possible that you saw the trailer in the theater some time before the film, then, well you know the rest.

Kudos on the comparison pics, Harmy!  It was a fantastic look!  I'd like to add it once it's corrected to the share folder when the BD is released!

D'oh!  I can confirm the lack of automatically going from 1 to 2.

If George Lucas WANTED to restore the originals, he would.

^^ Fixed.  I think what Frogneck wants and what at least some LFL employees want are entirely different things.

That's correct.  I have preserved the vinyl releases for these from factory sealed copies, which was tough and took a long time.  Unfortunately, the film version of Lapti Nek has NEVER been released, making the film itself the only source.

It doesn't matter to me anyway (yet) since every single link I was given is dead.  I'd like to have this.  Someday.  :)

Can you PM them to me?  Every single one I have does not exist.

The new one is not zipped, and I had no trouble with it.  I am seeding at full throttle now.

Thanks again, Puggo!

I joined the spleen swarm.  For anyone that doesn't have it yet, it's gonna get a lot faster so hang in there.

*EDIT*

Or maybe not.  The download speed is VERY erratic right now.  Hopefully it will stabilize soon. 

Oh FFS....

Thanks for the update, rnranimal.  I'll gladly help with my fiber-optic connection, but I need to have the thing to do it!

I don't see it on MS, that's why I asked.

Can someone PM the info on this to me?

The links are all dead.

Wow.  Some people.

Anyway, regarding the impending BD 2.1.  If it's at all possible, I would like to have the new covers and disc art available to me when it is ready so I can put it all together for sharing.  Since the BD is obviously the largest size, my fiber-optic connection will come in handy to get 2.1 out there.

Harmy, my connection is once again yours when it's time.  :)

V2.1 sounds good. And the fixes will only be done to the BD. No AVCHD v2.1.

Sounds like a plan.  I will definitely delete the MKV once I have the BD.  Since it's a large file, I'll do what I can to share and help seed it.

New audio tracks downloaded and muxed without a hitch!  Thanks again to hairy_hen, bilditup1, and of course, Harmy!

Congrats, Puggo!  PM sent!

Thank you, hairy_hen!

Damn you, SendSpace!  Gotta wait an hour to finish one of these?  Sheesh!

I don't know what the DVD5 looks like (I'm gonna have to get it when I get home, as I can't use torrents here) but otherwise I'd say that v2.0 looks anything but DVNred and waxy.

Agreed.  There is no way in hell that any part of this looks "processed" on the MKV.  Perhaps it is a product of the extreme loss in quality from HD to DVD5?

Let's make the Originals known to all the fans out there with these preservations.

^^ Fixed.  Ease up, Frink.  English isn't his first language, but his heart's in the right place.  :)

I am (VERY SLOWLY) downloading the covers and wanted to ask, are they already at the proper size for a printer to produce them for a BD case?  Or, will they need to be resized?

 

What covers are you talking about and where are you d/ling them from?  And yes, like it was stated before 'Undercoverxp' is a great program for printing out covers.

The covers are linked in the first post.
