Discs burned fine according to the computer, BD player wouldn't recognize them.

One I burned with Nero, the other I burned with IMGBurn - both on WinData +R DLs.  Third was an early attempt on a Memorex but I've since used those blanks up so I'm not concerned with trying them again.  Used "Verify" on both of them.

TESB was burned on a Memorex and TPM is on a WinData and they both work, so I'm guessing the disc brands are not the cause.

I don't think you're doing this as a parody of Ady's work but trying to make it more like Spaceballs: The Adywan-ized Edition - flawless color correction, repaired FX, and so on.

Ok, coming into this late because I finally got a BluRay player for Christmas.

Burned TPM and TESB - they work fine.  Tried ANH on three different brand discs with both Nero and IMGBurn and none of them work.

Where do I start to figure this out?

It might depend on the player.  What did you get?  I just got one for Xmas too - Sony BDP-S360 - and there are a lot of set-up options.  Right now, everything is on whatever the player's "default" is, but as I fool with it I'll get into the details and start adjusting things manually.

Flip thru your instruction booklet and see what you find.

Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!! I would've had a funny star warsy Christmas picture, but I don't feel like it.

You can borrow mine.

I know it's not Star Wars, but it's Christmas and funny - two out of three.

Actually the correct version would have been "720p, 721p", but the joke still works.

DEFINITELY post links to hi-res versions of those!  Incredible!

They always start by calling it natural causes until they get into the investigation.  Wait and see.

What was the difference between a sports fan and a sci-fi fan again?

I'll have it up right after I finish the "ban all douchebags from the internet" petition. Sorry for the delay.

There won't be anyone left!

Same here.  All three please!

Maybe we could add more aliens to the diner at the end, definitely remove the stick up the Alien's butt...

The rod is only really visible in the broadcast versions because they just removed the matte from the top/bottom of the frame instead of doing the traditional pan & scan.  On the DVD, it's hidden.

Pick one up, sluggo.  They're a VERY EASY way to get back into building.  You can practically just throw an open tube of glue in the box, shake and out pops a completed kit.

All the Fine Molds SW kits are excellent - much better than the old AMT kits.

I also like the grey you used.  Dark enough not to be white but not so dark that you can't see the contrast of the solar panels.  Standard TIE should be a little more white.  Display stand needs a shot of flat black.

The X-Wing and Y-Wing are a lot more flexible in how you want to finish them.  X can be done up as one of four different ships - Luke, Wedge, Biggs and Red Leader - and Y has 3 different schemes - Golds Leader, 2 and 3.

Batman Returns is a Christmas movie in the same vein as Die Hard, Gremlins and Trading Places.

And if you're a comic fan, you gotta watch this.

I saw a pic once of a guy who was using 8 screens for Flight Simulator - 3 wide on top for the windows and 5 wide below that for the cockpit.

And then there's this.

He might end up with two monitors which could be very handy for editing.

Oh my God, yes it is.  This semester was the first semester I was allowed to work on the two-monitor workstations at school (as an Edit II student; in Edit I we had to use single-monitor workstations),

And will you have three monitors when you get to Edit III, and so on up the line?  ;-)

Moving the mandibles isn't that hard to do as far as physical work if you've built models and done other modifications.  The question is if you think your skills are up to it enough that you won't irreversibly screw up a $200 kit.

Or make them change colors every time they come in contact with something, so each saber hit against the other or a wall or something cycles it to another color.

If the forum looked like that, you'd have a point. In fact, it does not.

I know it doesn't literally look like that, but that's what it can feel like if it gets too thin.

Plan for expansion.  You know more are going to creep their way in, so start by organizing by categories - official releases, edits/restorations of the films, making of, retrospectives, etc.

Once you see how many discs are in each pile, then buy cases to fit each category with some space left over.
