I think you're really reaching for some of the stuff there, especially the battle. There are so many damn movies that feature two huge armies going straight at each other and having a gritty fight. You wouldn't have even thought to compare the two if they didn't both involve mythical beasts and monsters.

The first thing you've got in there, again, is a time tested sweep and reveal type of thing, which can be seen in dozens of other "epic" films. It's just dramatically effective. It gives everything that feeling of being huge and grandiose.

The second thing you've got in there, that's just storytelling, pretty much. I haven't read LWW in years, so I can't remember if that specific scene was in the book, but yeah, that's just story.

So we didn't have to watch that damn Jimmy subplot in the meantime

Yeah, the only DVDs in circulation right now are based on the XivDs, I think, but MagFan is supposedly releasing new versions of his edits soon. Exciting!

Those aren't MagFan's versions, they're fanedits partially based on his edits by some guy calle Father Merrin. I say go with the original or don't go at all. You can deal with the crappy XivDs.

There's some tutorials if you look around on the RiffTrax message board.

I've watched this RiffTrax now. Verdict: Hilarious.

I'm actaully getting what the trader purports to be a workprint in a trade very soon, it should be on its way to me this week. His description referred to scenes not seen anywhere else. I'm very curious as to the authenticity of it.

Looks like everything but Leia and the wookiee family are from non-HS materials, and Leia and the wookiee family are likely hi-res scans of promotional materials.

Do you mean that one? That's 1977, not 2004. 2004 added weird decay and cement breakdown stuff to the front.

Since the alternate angles thing is giving you difficulty there, maybe I can try to offer help again. In the same re-authoring tool in DVD Shrink, you can select which angle to use, so I could simply rip just the English crawl and first 11 minutes and upload that somewhere. Or are you good with what you have?

RiffTrax is like MST3K: A lot are great, but there are some episodes that completely miss the mark. There's also the episodes where there's a few amazing riffs, but the rest is pretty dismissable. Having not seen the Phantom Menace one yet (I create DVDs with new audio tracks of the RiffTrax so I don't have to bother playing back two devices at once), but Star Trek V is pure gold.

Sorry I haven't gotten those clips to you, I just got back from a trip to California. I'll get them to you when you have regular 'net access again.

I could maybe help you out there. With DVD Shrink, you can just take chunks of the video, and I can just take a few seconds around where the VOB breaks are and send the MPEG files your way. Would that help?

EDIT: Just to be clear, the clips would be the whole affected areas straight through, from a few seconds before the break to a few after, seamless.

The KCCI version is the best version out there, so yes. There are Angrysun editions of both the KCCI and KCMO broadcasts, but hands down, get the KCCI one.

So essentially, one would just have to sync the audio, put in the missing shot and change the titles? That shouldn't be too hard.

I'd love to see this, so I'd be happy to take a crack at it.
