And they already blew past the 10k mark.
Imagine the kind of moolah George could raise if he only would ask! ;)
Maybe it's something to do with the fact the DVD extras were not ported over?
Aside from the deleted scenes, (which Lucasfilm had been holding back since 1993!) I was underwhelmed by the rest of it.
A few "worst of 2011" nominations over at the HTF of interest. ;)

grifter, where does your icon come from? Just curious...
We are talking 16mm though.
The point I was trying to make is, if George really lacked funds to restore the OOT, he could ask the fans for help, and would probably raise a lot more than 10k. Of course, he's never going to ask. ;)
The studios ought to consider something like this for all the movies that are still waiting to be restored, but aren't considered profitable enough to fund a restoration.
Any idea what's on the VHS tape yet?
Not as much as you might think!

I'm sending in a donation, not just as a MST fan, but to symbolically poke George in the eye next time he trots out such a lame excuse. ;)
SciFi is a basic cable channel on this side of the pond.
Alas, they never show anything of this caliber these days.
Damn! Any chance they will show it again?
Glad to hear the PC is working again.
I hope to get to work on scanning or photographing that magazine and the other THX items before the end of the year.
Welcome aboard, Ben!
It's very refreshing to hear the perspective of such a young fan. I might have to rethink my opinions about you darn kids. ;)
Lumps of coal for those who don't chill the heck out.
Play nice, children. Santa's watching...
And the usual suspects show up to comment.
Kind of a ripoff that the Shrek 3D theme park movie isn't on the Blu Rays. It was released on DVD as a two pack with the first movie at one point.
So that's what Yoda looked like when he was younger! ;)
Seriously, what the hell happened to his wrinkles? They have botox in a galaxy far far away?
The original. It sounds like a real creature making the sound.
If a combination of the sound of an orgasm mixed with the sound of someone getting hot coffee poured on their crotch scares sandpeople off, then I just don't know what the galaxy is coming to.
Ben Burtt had nothing to do with the new one, correct?
It's a unit of measurement for movie posters.
People have paid quite a lot more for movie posters from the 20's and 30's.
Whether this poster is that rare and worth the asking price, I have no idea.
Also, I have the feeling we've discussed this before.

When Starlog magazine instructed how to do it for their 3D issue back in the 80's, they claimed it actually builds eye strength. I have goofy eyesight to begin with.
You're supposed to cross your eyes, and concentrate on the image in the middle. I need no mirror. ;)
Great minds think alike. :)
On a related note, Ebay prices for the DVD's are going up, and people are paying a lot more than would be expected now that the Blu Rays are out.
It's not just the GOUT sets, either. Prequels and even the full frame versions are getting high bids lately.
"The War of the Stars" fanedit also did this. Making Vader slightly loony actually made him more sinister. :)
