Is owning a '95 Faces VHS set bought from Goodwill enough to qualify getting Dark_Jedi's DVDs?  Or do I have to own the GOUT?  I'd be more than happy to buy the GOUT if it's required.

Not until you buy the laserdiscs.

I don't have a laserdisc player.  I think it'd be cheaper just to buy the GOUT DVDs.

Even if it's something as simple as keeping an eye on everyone on Detention Block AA-23.

On a side note, I really think we need a thread/forum with this name... perhaps for listing banned members? :P

Seconded!

I third that suggestion!

Also wouldn't mind seeing why the certain person was banned. That can be simple (i.e. spammer, abusive behavior, violation of rule XXXXX, repeated violations of misc. rules, etc), no details necessary.

Rule A-1138: More David Bowie, Less Secret of NIMH.  I myself am a violator of that rule. :(

Halloween Costumes?

I finally got my Indy Gear completed, 7 months and $700 later.

But my whipholder for my belt came broken from the retailer, and it'll be past Halloween before they can get a replacement, so I'll just have to carry my whip around.

You, sir, have taste! :)

Here's me in my Indy Gear:

The one thing I lack is a whip and whipholder.  I'll have to get one by Halloween.

Am I still incommunicado?

Can I even ask that question without getting in more trouble?

What are the rules here, exactly?  What do I have to do to get back into good graces with the Church of the Boost?

Apparently, do what I did. ;)

Yeah that's it.

If you want back into the Thread's good graces, you need to deliver HIGH PRAISE... real high praise, to a much maligned film. Make the masses reconsider their positions, shout to the heavens.

Wow.  I didn't think that'd work.  At the time I was only thinking about the fact that I didn't see my name on the LISTUS DE EXCOMMUNICATION.

(waaaaay off topic) Judging from this trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ePelcaQOEaE

Kuky se vraci would be a phenomenon i'd gladly pay attention to.  www.kukysevraci.cz

I see what you're saying!  The $90 Lucas wants you to spend on the Star Wars Complete Saga Box Set is better spent on a few tickets for you and your friends to see that movie. ;)

Or something David Bowie-related.

Or something Secret of NIMH-related.

Or something else not Star Wars-Related.

We should ask David Bowie if he still has his U-matic bootleg copy of Star wars--lol!

I think I saw that costume in person once. (And it's not a cheap Halloween getup!) Can't recall what NIMH movie character it's supposed to be?

Nicodemus.  Even if it's not cheap, I think making costumes out of animated characters is a big no-no.  It's like making a costume out of the penguin in my avatar.  There are no real specs, so it'll never look right.  'Course, ever since I became an Indiana Jones fan, I've never worn anything to Halloween except my close-enough Indy Gear.

And why, oh, why can't I keep NIMH a Secret? >:(

Let me try this again: SECRET OF NIMH DISCUSSION ENDS HERE!!!

 

 

So...  What's U-Matic?

If GL changed his mind about releasing OUT, but with a few tweaks.....
Time

Just my two cents...  Old movies that are recomposited look like new movies.  Old movies should look like old movies.  New movies should look like new movies.

For example, Beauty and the Beast on Blu-Ray looks like a new movie.  I'm not sure if it's because of recompositing or DNR, but it looks like a new movie.  Old movies ought to show their age.

END OF LINE.

BTW, I asked my dad if I could download the V3.  He said he didn't want to download pirated films.

You need to educate him on why it's not pirated, as long as you own the GOUT.

Ask him if someone could mail it to you.

*Gulp*  Okay, I'll ask him about buying the GOUT (Unless a '95 Faces VHS set bought from Goodwill seriously qualifies as the GOUT), and then downloading V3 (or, when it comes around, V4).  I doubt he'd change his mind, though.  The rules of this forum might not neccessarily be the same as his.  He might see it as piracy even if we do already own an official release.  In which case, I won't get it.  Until I'm out of the house.

Harmy's THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK Despecialized Edition HD - V2.0 - MKV &amp; AVCHD (Released)

For years I thought the GOUT was OK. I grew up watching 2nd generation VHS tapes, so I wasn't too picky about the less than stellar image.

Then the Blu Ray debacle lately just got me fed up with Star Wars releases, and all the poo that George Lucas makes us go through.

So I DLed this edit, and Star Wars DeSpecialized.

OH MY GOD!!!!! Thank you SO much for your effort Harmy. They absolutely ROCK!!!!!!!!!! WoooHoooo!!!!!!!!!!

Suffice to say, I enjoyed them.

I didn't think I would ever be able to enjoy Star Wars again after the past month, but Harmy's ESB brought my love back.

FIXED

You're not going to fix every grammatical error you come across, are you?

Not anymore.

How Did You Find OT.com?
Time

I was looking at the articles on SaveStarWars.com.  I was looking at the fan preservations section, and I found what I considered the holy grail of fan preservations: DJ's V3.  So many audio options...  So many different ways to enjoy the same movie over and over again...  I just had to have it.  A Google search turned up this place.  After awhile, I decided to join, and after another while, I decided to make my first post.  After that, I made my introduction thread, established my SoN Nerdiness, moved that nerdiness over to a SoN forum, and kept my focus on Star Wars right here.  BTW, I asked my dad if I could download the V3.  He said he didn't want to download pirated films.
