I live in Canada!

Me too, in Ontario. :)

Have you checked your local Blockbuster or Rogers? I don't see why they wouldn't have the second disc for rental.

I know what you're getting at, but I must say that every time I rent/buy a movie from Rogers Video, it always comes with the bonus disc[s].

Would be a shame to make a torrent for one person. I'd rather just mail the thing. I've mailed hundreds of discs to people and have only had one instance where one got damaged.

Nice one, BarBar.

I guess I'd just copy the files on the disc (vobs, etc...) to the hard drive? I could rip it, but I dunno how I'd go about getting it to you and it not taking a month.

^Yeah, who was it that made a video that made it look like Vader was being two-faced? I still have the clips, but I can't remember who made them! :p

Meh, wouldn't bother me to mail it.

GM, maybe I missed something here...but are you re-doing all of the movies? If so, wow! And I was just hoping to get ESB and ROTJ someday! Haha. :)

Nice one, Sluggo. :)

Interesting pre-production sketch there. He certainly likes to be the center of attention. (har har) Look at those curvy walkways! And it looks like maybe a turbolift/elevator in the back right 'corner.'

I can't tell what those red things are. The one on the right kinda looks like a robot... (I cranked the brightness on my monitor, but I still can't tell)

Didn't phrase it right.  Will fix it.

F.A.B.

Nice one, Mr. Tracy. :)

I kinda like that suggestion of having the Emperor laugh as he falls to his death. He's such a loony, it seems appropriate. The idea of Piett turning is neat, too. Definitely a radical change, but probably no more radical than some of the things Ady has planned for the PT.

I have no idea what you guys are talking about.  :-P

"And you never shall! Ha ha haaaaa..."

I actually figured you got them from someone a while back. I could loan you my copy of the AOTC bonus disc, I suppose. Heh.

I love how Ady comes in and just nonchalantly says he has fixed the helmet wobble. :)

^Shhh! Big Brother and all that... :p

^Haha, thanks. It was in Steve Sansweet's collectibles section. The funny thing is, they used the title 'Spelling Counts' for my letter...and misspelled my last name. :p

I had a subscription to SWI for a few years and really enjoyed it...until PT coverage outweighed OT by a 10:1 margin. :p Plus, there's the fact that I hate spoilers, and that's all it was. My last issue is actually an issue I got a letter printed in. I think it was the last, anyway.

The sabre is better than the ones in ROTJ

Yeah, I just meant that it's green when it should be blue.

Here's another pic:

(I recently uploaded them to my account, so I figured I'd share 'em here. Might be good for a smile or two, at least.)

^I like your new version, but I also like the old one in a way, because the red in the buildings reminds me of reddish clay. I like the brighter sky more in yours.

Oh, and care to take a stab at color correcting Bart's saber in this pic?

Who missed that?! :p I guess there was no time [or inclination?] to fix it. I'm surprised that Star Wars Insider printed it as-is. Whatever. Still neat-o. The "hair" on top of the helmet is a nice touch.

Man, this thread is super technical and I don't understand a lot of what's being discussed, but that's ok. Very much looking forward to this transfer. :) I still don't have the 8mm version, but I should be getting it...soon, I hope.

Speaking of the old versions, check out this ad from the April 1978 issue of Fantastic Films magazine*:

So...how did this work, anyway? I know very little about this. I'm thinking this was not authorized by LFL. Did someone (possibly from Fantastic Films) just go into a theater and film the movie? How much trouble could they have gotten in? :p

*Awesome issue! Pretty much half devoted to Star Wars and half devoted to The Day the Earth Stood Still; two of my all-time favorites.

May I suggest using that as the backround for the chapter selection page on the DVD!

 

I agree, I think some of Vaderios' mockups should be menus on the DVD.

Absolutely! :) Maybe they won't make it into the movie itself, but since vaderios is saving them as high quality/hi-res images, they could be neat as a menu image.

Or at the very least, maybe a 'Fan Mock-Ups' DVD-ROM folder could be included? I'd love to be able to have them all together and show them to family and friends. :) We never had anything nearly to this extent for ANH:R (cuz vaderios wasn't around then? heh), and the mock-ups have been a ton of fun!

in my eyes, the ship staying straight looks really silly.

Yes, their reactions look a little odd. ;)

HotRod said:

And for the love of god, change your sig. It's more tha just one person asking now!

Yeah, even Adywan himself has asked. It is a might big. :p Maybe turn it into a small banner?

^Ha! Nice one, vaderios. :)

P.S. Is Angel your real name, or another username, or...what?

Maybe add a fall sound

Ha! That would be good, especially if it slipped off. Luke hears a thud, then thinks 'what was that? *looks down* Oh... Whatever. I'll get a new one when I get back to the fleet.'
