Waterworld ABC Cut? A ton of info - see McFly's posts for details (Released)

Ooh, that's pretty! A composite of this with the SciFi version, coupled with the uncensored soundtrack from the Encore version would probably be the ideal. Unless someone wants to also composite all of those with the official VHS, which I don't personally own.

It's shown on pay cable from time to time, maybe someone could do a fullscreen capture from there.

Organ donation

I'm not. My dad was. When he died, the doctors tried to just take all of his organs that might be used in transplants, regardless of whether they were going to be useful or not. They were just going to figure it out after they got them out. My mom overheard the doctors jovially joking about this. She stopped them from taking everything, and I think she let them take his heart because they knew it was healthy and it could be used for a transplant.

The business of death seriously, seriously freaks me out and I want to stay as far away from it as possible.

Personally, I love the "SCENE MISSING - JAW-DROPPING TRANSFORMATION" title card that shows up seven minutes into the film.

Ha! I never saw that part. That is pretty freakin' great. It's stuff like this why I love workprints. The stuff nobody was meant to see.

Seeders seem to have really dropped off, so I'll keep seeding for a while longer. Look for the first disc of the two disc extended version on Monday, let's say.

Does anyone know if Mark Isham's score still exists in some form? This is a long shot since I think he hadn't scored all of the film before being replaced, but: since we have a workprint without the James Newton Howard score, perhaps we could drop Isham's score in?

Just did some quick research and it doesn't seem like any of it's out there in any way. According to an interview I read, he said he scored about 2/3 of the film before Costner fired him from the project. I also asked a couple hardcore score collectors on Soulseek, none of whom had ever come across it. Unfortunate.

Judging by the clip that lorang posted, his is actually NTSC, as is mine. So there wouldn't be an issue, I don't think. Just syncing.

By workprint, are you talking about an actual workprint, as in, a rough cut longer than the extended edition? If so, then hell yeah! Is there anything particularly different or interesting?

Actual workprint, yeah. Rough cut, yeah. Longer than the extended edition, no. It actually runs a bit shy of 120mins, making it even shorter than the theatrical version. I've never watched it all the way through. The image quality is pretty rough. I think it has the Everest ending. How about this: I'll upload a Xvid and if someone watches it and finds reason for me to upload the full DVD, I will.

And btw, when do you plan to upload your copy of the director's cut? Please do so soon. And are you intending to use Demonoid, or Spleen?

I've gotta reseed a DEVO DVD over at DimeADozen.org, so I'll do it after that. That process should take two or three days. It'll be on Demonoid, and and probably also tracked on Mininova and TPB. MySpleen's a dying community, I think.

Tweaker, let me say on the record, that finding another diehard Waterworld fan is very refreshing.

I can still make my version available, yeah, but I want to wait to see Lorang's version. If it's a censored soundtrack, then I'll still upload mine. If it's not and you want mine because of the lack of watermark, I might just mail you discs.
