So who has the transfers right now? One person? Multiple people?
It shouldn't be a tough at all to get these on BD's... plenty of burners floating around now.
Someone should definitely do this shit.
After encoding the video in AVC and the audio in LPCM, if possible, it shouldn't be tough to fit on a single layer BD.
Winner winner chicken dinner?
No, winner winner Sheen dinner.
Can't someone just take what's existing now and burn it to BD's? I'd pay 15 bucks for a BD copy even if all the fine touches weren't all done, 15 for each one.

I recommend the same thing, except I think instead of lightly squeezing the nape of her neck I think he should use his fists to wail on the nape of her neck for 30 or 40 seconds every once and a while.
I'd like to be completely honest here. I don't like you dirt bags talking about Bubalove like this.

That's what I got.
Keep in mind you motherfuckers that I just didn't get one Bubalove message, not just one, but two. Two Bubalove messages.
I don't want to cause any tensions between myself and the rest of the forum but it's pretty fucking clear which one of us is Bubalove's favorite, so step the fuck off.

Listen man, it's blatantly obvious you were predisposed to dislike this movie with a passion regardless of the final product, that post right there is the equivalent of the new Chekov's ridiculously over-exaggerated accent - awkward and hard to understand.
Anyway, I just saw it tonight at a 12:30am showing. First of all, it's nowhere near the level of terrible achieved by the Star Wars prequels - those were genuinely bad, borderline unwatchable movies. Also, it's miles better than the previous few Star Trek movies; though, that's not exactly high praise seeing as those were terrible movies as well.
That being said to be completely honest I thought it was underwhelming (especially given the amount of critical praise being shoveled onto the film.) It wasn't a bad movie per se, it was just "OK" (especially given the pedigree.) An alright summer popcorn movie, though not nearly the "classic" I was hoping for (or even truly great.) As summer blockbusters go it's above average but it's far removed from being a masterpiece.
There were also a couple of parts I would've removed altogether - there wasn't anything positive about them being in the movie. The fucking ultra cheesy part in the beginning with young Kirk taking his step dad's "antique" car for a joy ride while blasting Beastie Boys, only to drive it off of a cliff Dukes of Hazard style while evading a poorly-done super cyborg robocop..... only to leap from the car at the last minute (in slow motion no less) while it sails over the edge of the cliff was just fucking asinine. It set a terrible tone, it was something that wouldn't be out of place in one of those [horrible] new Transformers movies.
Chekov's absurdly over-the-top cringe-worthy accent was also hard to stomach. They cast the wrong kid ("kid" being the operative word) for that role.
A few of the aliens seemed... out of place (like that one making lame ass faces while sitting in between Kirk and Uhura at the bar.) Not a big gripe necessarily - they just looked like they belonged in Mos Eisley, not the Enterprise. Giving Sulu a stereotypical Smurai sword (how was that "fencing?") was also pretty lame. Again, not a big deal or anything but what made that old episode so unique (and the reason Takei insisted on doing it the way it was done) was that the Asian guy was given a fencing foil rather than the boringly predictable samurai sword. A western style sword and combat technique would've been better than the karate and samurai sword - more original, more unique (an more in-line with what made the character cool in the first place.)
In the end it was worth seeing, just nothing to write home about. A watchable 7/10.

Another Bad Review for Star Trek (2009) has came in as The New Film is about to come out.
He (kirk) is played here by Chris Pine, who struggles with a screenplay, written by Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, that could have been downloaded from a software program entitled “Make Your Own Annoying Rebel.”-Anthony Lane from the the new yorker on Star Trek (2009)

Again, it doesn't even compare with those two movies. You're picking the tiny handful of negative reviews out of hundreds of others. Not one movie ever released, even the classics, went without a few negative reviews.
MI: III (147 positive reviews, 64 negative reviews) barely managed 70% on Rotten Tomatoes and Cloverfield is a few points below 80 as well (145 positive to 44 negative.)
Also, MI III was miles better than the previous MI movie, way better. MI III wasn't a bad movie, MI II was a bad movie. Never saw Cloverfield.
Star Trek, already with the vast majority of reviews already in, 94 % on Rotten Tomatoes, is at 127 positive reviews and only 8 negative reviews. This is an overwhelmingly positive critical response that very few movies match. Anything that stays above 90 is considered virtually universally positively reviewed.
It seems like you're just Hell bent on hating the movie under any circumstance. Where were you for the last 26 shitty Star Trek movies? Even if this movie had been the worst piece of shit in film history (and for all I know I might think it is when I get around to seeing it, who knows) it's not as if it could kill the brand, the franchise was already long-dead. The previous Star Trek movie got nearly twice the number of negative reviews as it got positive ones. As a franchise it was well past just running on fumes.
Well, swordfighting is Sulu's specialty.
Well what would you liked to have seen from Abrams, he was working with the original characters? What sort of modern day social issues could he have worked in without making it completely retarded?
Should he have made Spock a Middle Eastern tranny?
I wouldn't say either got overwhelmingly positive reviews.
Sith is at 80 and Indy is below 80 on Rotten Tomatoes.
That's a far shot from the 90's to mid 90's (which indicates an overwhelmingly positive response to a movie from the audience of critics.)

No movie, even the most acclaimed classic, went without a small handful of negative reviews (and this new Star Trek's handful is tiny.)
I personally don't give a shit about the new Star Trek movie or Star Trek in general, but it is getting overwhelmingly positive reviews.
The only real review I care about is the Peter Travers review, that dude has tastes closest to my own. I don't know why Ebert is so famous (been around the longest I guess,) but he has mostly shit taste in movies. Dude gave glowing reviews to the Star Wars prequels, I remember him giving Phantom Menace 31/2 out of 4 stars with a hyper-glowing review. Those movies were fucking ass.
ChainsawAsh said:That's good news! I really hope this project can be salvaged.
I'm just sick of people coming in and asking "So is there any progress?" or "When will this be released?" when they could easily look at, say, the last two pages at the very least and know that they're just going to get shit for asking that and no real answers.
Well, I asked and I got a real answer so put that in your pipe and smoke it. PUT IT IN YOUR PIPE MOTHERFUCKER!
So, is the x0 project ever coming out?
The US version sucks ass and if you like it you are likely a terrorist.
Not really.
The biggest problem with Lucas is his refusal to release a high quality unaltered version of the original trilogy. The prequels all sucked ass, but who cares?
I'm a big fan of the UK version, dug it the whole way through. A solid 8.5 - 9 / 10
I only watched the first few US episodes but it wasn't watchable. I saw the UK version quite a while before ever seeing the US one, so I don't know how it would come off for someone completely unfamiliar with the series but I can't imagine it would be any different. The episodes I saw were direct rips of the UK episodes (right down to the little jokes... "I was driving a jeep." "You were driving a military vehicle?" etc.) The acting feels wooden, Keitel seems completely out of place as the guv, the pretty boy they got for the lead doesn't work as anywhere nearly as well as Simm did, and everything comes off as unnatural. 5 / 10. That's right motherfucker, 5/10. On paper you'd think the US version would work just fine given how much they share in common - but watching the US take on the series it's pretty clear the original was more than just the sum of its parts.
If you haven't seen the UK version buy it and watch it (it doesn't have a R1 release, I imported mine off of Amazon.co.uk and since I have an Oppo it played without a problem, you'll need a DVD player that can handle an R2 PAL release.)
Skip the US version either way, complete waste of time.
They cost what, 5 bucks or less than DVD's?
Get a PS3.
