Topic: Info Wanted: What is the Best Quality OT Fan Preservation Set?

If you're looking for restoration, like was said above, OCP's Classic Editions are best. These are what I watch.

Best non-anamorphic NTSC transfer is EditDroid. Best anamorphic NTSC transfer is Citizen, though he's not done with Jedi yet. If you're just looking to watch the movies again and aren't a completist, getting any one of these three sets should do you good. The CowClops v2 set has a lot of hype behind it for the PCM soundtrack, but the picture quality is slaughtered by a number of other sets out there.

I thought about this too when I was authoring the disc, but that title doesn't appear anywhere on the film itself. In the opening title sequence, it's still "Johnny Mnemonic", so I left it that way.

I dig it. Goes very well with how Universal tried to market the flick.

Dr. M, that's pretty much spot-on for the subtitle track I created. I think I played with the first scene between Takeshi and Shinji a bit differently than you did, but the overall effect is the same, just some different phrasing and word emphasis.

Anamorphic widescreen isn't a 2.35:1 or 1.85:1 image, it's 1.77:1. Any cropping is done to that ratio and black bars are left over for anything that's wider than that.

Reading the list of changes you've made, I'm definitely pretty psyched for this set. It'll be good to get a copy.

I definitely think an index thread like this would be very helpful. I do have some suggestions, though:

*Follow the format more like Moth3r's version, rather than having the project title and then the "thread link" thing underneath. It's kinda clunky.
*Include the not-yet-completed projects in a seperate area of the list. Sometimes projects die and maybe someone looking through the list might have an interest in ressurecting a project and garner ideas from a thread they didnt know existed.
*Seperate section of same post for Star Wars stuff.
*It should all be in the first post in this thread, not spread out over two as you have it now.

I think if you do all this, it'll be pretty damned slick. You've got most of the recon work done already, it just gotta be cleaned up a bit.

If any of you, in fact, go to Kinko's to print out covers, I suggest you open up the jpegs in Photoshop first and save them as PDFs. That eliminates the chance of them printing out the wrong size because a program read the file wrong.

In terms of fanedits/restoration projects, no. I'm very busy on my own mini-feature called LiveStock which I have to have done by April 7 to get in my skool's film fest. This summer, I'm going to be working with Jeph York on a big Army of Darkness composite and a big Evil Dead edit.

I think you're one of the only people on this board who could actually make this statement on a project like this and have it mean something.

Anyway, 5acrifice, this does sound like a very nice project. Audio in ProTools = sweet. Editing in iMovie = horriblehorriblebraindeath. Don't do it. Consult with Garrett, the guy I just quoted, as he has done (and is doing) some truly masterful work on a Mac.

Not that much, knew a guy who worked there. It came out to $7 or $8 damage, I think. Maybe a couple bucks more.

I can accurately answer that. Those are two shorts he made, "You're Not Fooling Anyone" and "You're Still Not Fooling Anyone", which illustrate precisely what a ripoff artist Tarantino is. Quite amusing little things.
