I'd totally check out this movie. It wouldn't be the first time I've watched a documentary on chess!

So... Hi guys! Again with the n00bish stuff after being here for six (?) years, but can anyone hook me up with a snail mail copy of Zion's DVD? My usenet hookup is no longer able to afford the service, and I'm not able to afford the service. I have many things I could trade. Email me (preferred) or PM me (if you must) if you can help! Thank you!

Zion, forgive the n00bish question, but that's what I get for only popping around the board every once in a while now. How do I get a copy of your DVD? I've purchased the RiffTrax and would like to compare to my own disc.

Hello, three-and-a-half year old thread, how are you?

There was a screening of this film in Los Angeles last night, with Helen Slater and co-writer Lawrence Konner doing a Q&A. I recorded that and uploaded it here:

Sigh...

Ah, okay. Still, seems like it was the same drive inside that fucked us both. I'd say you harder than me, because Star Wars Begins is surely going to be better than my flick was. I'd like to donate, but I'm saving up a for a move...

Jambe, just curious, was you 250gb Seagate Barracuda originally inside of a Lacie enclosure? That was the situation I had, and I lost my first original, longform film that I had just finished editing. I literally found out it had stopped working when I plugged it in to back it up. Never was able to get the money together to get it repaired.

Oh, my mistake then. I haven't watched the easter egg section in a few years.

If I recall correctly, the clip in the easter egg was an alternate take from the one included in Return of the Ewok. It's entirely possible that when ROTE was edited, the original negative was conformed to the edit, which would remove the used take from the original reel with the take used in the doc. After that, the negative master and the 16mm print version could have been lost.

Someone over at MySpleen is currently syncing broadcast audio with DVD video. He's up to Ep 9 in Season 1 so far, and he just started this week.

Yeah, please re-write the JDownloader use guide. I can't stand it. I use CryptLoad, which I also hate.

Awesome! Thanks tons! Can't wait to put it next to LFL Pwnage.

I'd really love to get a copy of the original Is It College Yet. Do you have that on DVD?

If you can find sources, more power to you. Only sources I am aware of are "watchable" video files circulating online. Personally, I am content to not be distracted by really dated pop music throughout the series.

Tremendously exciting! Can't wait to get a copy! Thanks, zombie and ED team!

Yeah, I second that. I call shenanigans.

Apparently. This is the info I was given:

EWOKGROOMER - Return of the Jedi BD50 -> DVD9 1080p h264 - "Return.of.the.Jedi.1080p.EwokGroomer.nfo" yEnc (1/1)
collection size: 6.49 GB, parts available: 20108 / 20108
- 1 nfo file
- 219 rar files
view NFO

Does anyone have some extra bandwidth on their usenet subscription right now? A thing popped up that I am trying to get for a trade (EwokGroomer's re-coded AVCHD version of ROTJ, compressed from WookieGroomer's), and I'm trying  not to pay for a subscription. If anyone could help me out, I have lots to trade. Just email me. Thanks!

I've just now found out that, while this performance may be broadcasting in the US, it's confirmed to be broadcast tomorrow night at 11pm EST/8pm PST on MuchMusic in Canada. Any Canadians on here able to record this??

Thanks a lot, both of you! DFNYC, I just replied to your email. Doc, if you wanted to cap it as a backup, I wouldn't object at all. I'm just glad I don't have to go the DVD recorder route!

There's no "he" here, unless you're referring to whoever made that specific disc years back, probably in 2004, and I know it wasn't Asylum, because I traded that disc to him. Anyway, yes, whoever made the disc could have done that, but they didn't.

I wouldn't recommend extreme caution with Asylum. The guy who runs it is really nice, a great trader all around and I've dealt with him a number of times. He and I just have a different philosophic standpoint on the nature of bootleg DVDs: I find it morally reprehensible to sell them, he does not.

And with regard to the Generations workprint, you have to understand that the vast majority of traders are not people who take the time to capture to a computer, find the right compression settings and author a disc. A lot of the originators of these discs were leftovers from the VHS days, so they dubbed their tapes to DVD in the way that made sense to them, which was a set-top DVD recorder. With one of those, you have to tell it what speed (i.e. compression) to record at. Generations was over two hours, so it was probably set to four hour mode, which records at half-resolution. It's not to be unexpected. In my six or seven years of real trading, I've only ever run into two guys who encoded VHS tapes to their computer, compressed and authored from there. Great traders, those two.

I'm pretty sure I have the KCCI version. Got it from Rik many moons ago. The RiffTrax version is still in The Pirate Bay, thanks for the tip on that!
