HALLOWEEN - Fixing the audio and re-creating 1999 color timing (Released)
Time

I watched the new blu ray release with the correct mono the other night, and I could hear faint background noise throughout. It's certainly better than the lossy mono on the 2007 disc.

One little detail about the tv footage I had forgotten about is that there was a title card with a date before the auditorium scene with Loomis that's gone missing. Did any of the previous releases have that? I can't dig out my Criterion to check at the moment.

Episode IV: A Ridiculous Hope
Time

I don't think any Atari games ever got licensed for it. (Pole Position was released, but that was originally a Namco game.) By the time Atari was making games for other systems, poor Vectrex was kind of dead.

People make homebrew Vectrex games to this day, so you'd think somebody would take a crack at it.

I miss my old console, even though it buzzed loudly, (they all did) and I was probably absorbing radiation from the screen. ;)

Sorry for the temporary derail, Frink.

The pre battle briefing could then have the trench run from the game.

You could also stick stick other SW inspired games into the targeting displays of the fighters and the Falcon.

I've played all of these in my time!

The tactical display in Rebel HQ could also be replaced with something, but I'm not sure what...

If you need to B*tch about something... this is the place
Time

Someone apparently has a gmail very similar to mine, and have mistyped theirs in signing up for a lot of things, and some personal messages. So I'm getting all their email.

Pretty sure my account hasn't been hacked. Unless this doofus sees the messages I left for them on Ebay, or starts to wonder why they are not getting replies, it's only a matter of time before I see something really private.
