Does anyone have the SW "saga" DVD edition of TP? If so, can you play an OT only option, or are the OT & PT inextricably intermingled?

I'll probably go for one day if I'm in LA at the time, but I won't make a special trip. Now if it was originaltrilogy.com Celebration I, on the other hand...

I know it isn't strictly related to your edit, and could be in any AotC edit, but I just never liked the Jango/Boba storyline. I just thought it would be cooler if Boba was still the original guy which the clones were taken from, rather than one of the clones. After all, we never see his face in the OT, so he could just be old under the helmet. Like stossmo said, no explanation is necessary - just refer to him as Boba Fett in the AotC scenes and it's self-explanatory. It would provide a way to streamline the scenes with Fett in AotC. From memory, young Boba is usually in his own shot, I just haven't watched it for a while so I couldn't picture if it would cut okay.

Is it possible to get rid of young Boba and just have Jango be Boba?

Both Super8 cameras and projectors often have a choice of 18 or 24 fps.

Please don't do an irregular pulldown. Please do what Karyudo said (encode at 23.976 fps). Please don't do what Karyudo said later (take frame-length chunks of audio out here and there).

24 fps is not 23.976 fps but 23.976 fps is 23.98 fps.

You might want to read through the SW preservation thread a bit for more info on these. Another good option is the Japanese Special Collection, which is more untouched than Definitive Collection or "Faces," or the PAL THX editions for the best resolution.

The Emperor unlocks Luke's cuffs using the force in Return Of The Jedi.

However, the arena scene is still one of the best and most Star Wars-y moments in the PT.

boris is okay. Is he annoying sometimes? Yes. Does he rant at great length about things he knows little about? Yes. But does he contribute to the forum? Yes.

Definitely not ban material. There are other members I'd lose before him.

I'm not sure I get the logic of applying French pronunciation to English spellings of words...

Otherwise we'd all be watching "Sturr Wurrs."

schwa.

Back off topic: I'm guessing at a french pronunciation of "tellay-seenay." After all, there are acute accents on every "e."

belbucus, I think it might be good to build in the delay, as it would make it a lot easier for more people to use the files. And since they haven't gone out to that many people yet...

BTW, if anyone without newsgroups wants hard copies of all the belbucus synced mixes, I'll start a PIF chain. PM me.

The key word here is "assumed." Those who are supporting that pronunciation have only read the term.

"Cine," as in "cine camera," has always been pronounced "sinny."

Book-accurate movies of LOTR would have been: a) far less successful; b) worse. Criticizing a film adaptation because it's different from the book is senseless.
