Any word on this project? I see akiotena has taken the videos down; hope it's just because somebody abused the privilege and they'll go back up soon.
I got C&D'd by Paramount. Not pushing my luck. :)
FYI - Feel free to share the YouTube links now. I'm making them public... someone on Tumblr caught wind of our thread. :)
Edit: Removed the links. See my earlier post.
Edit: I've removed the links. PM me if you need them again for some reason, but for the most part, I think the relevant people have downloaded the material already.

^ anything you can share is definitely appreciated.
So here's something potentially interesting. Listening to and reading about the soundtrack I discovered that Harrison's [;)] music isn't on the soundtrack - and it's a pretty damn good piece of music.

I then discovered that the music in the bar when Kirk calls up Scotty is different based on release territory. I just checked my Itunes files and the two versions [theatrical / commentary] indeed have different backing songs during that scene. - they sound similar with different lyrics [different performers] - I think the tune was written by Abrams.
I wonder what the odds are of compiling all versions of that scene?
brief making of the Australian version -

Correct, Abrams did write that one. :) I, uh, actually have all those extra regional releases of the bar song EXCEPT the Brazilian one by Ceu (which pisses me off because that's the one I wanted most). I can upload those too, I suppose... XD
My hope was that Varese Sarabande would be releasing a deluxe edition of the STID soundtrack like with the 2009 movie and that the extra stuff, including "Ode to Harrison" would be on it. Still haven't heard a peep about it though. :(

I have a bunch of trailers on my hard drive, downloaded from the iTunes site back then. If they are needed for the project, just ask me. They are not rare or anything, though ... and I suspect that most of us have them already.

The Hendrickson name for Harrison/Khan is interesting however.
Wasn't it Erickson?
I agree that the Pike/Kirk scene works much better in the final movie, the only two scenes I would have kept in the movie are the ones about Carol's accent (blends in flawlessly into the scene) and the one where Scotty gains access to the Io facility (which is at least trying to explain how he has gotton in there so easily).
It was indeed Erickson. I think it's a reference to the fact that the original conception of Khan in "Space Seed" was named Harold Erickson. This article at io9 talks a bit about it, kind of neat trivia.
For anyone curious, I am still uploading stuff. It's 2.2GB of deleted scenes, VFX stuff, and random videos and I'm working around my flatmates playing MMOs and yelling at me for sucking up their bandwidth. I think I'll just post the download links here in the forum thread so anyone that wants 'em can have the files.
That being said... who has the blooper reel and can send it my way? ;)
Nope. It wasn't included.
Whoops, was totally going to post these links last night and... didn't. My bad.
The videos seem to have taken a little bit of a hit in quality; I assume that's due to some kind of compression YouTube has going in the background? I dunno. But it should still give a good idea of how they'll look.
One more thing: the videos are unlisted, so please don't share them too widely. Thanks.

Hope to be recording the final versions tomorrow. :)
Here's my plan - gonna purchase a license for Bandicam and rerecord this weekend. Also, I'm gonna try and upload the old recordings I have to YouTube, and will link it here so you guys can see what they look like. The one thing I won't be able to remove is the SmartGlass app's player. When in full screen, it shows up for a few seconds after hitting play, then disappears. There's no way to get around it, unfortunately. Maybe someone with mad skills can edit it out... but that person is not me. :)
Well, I recorded them at 1920x1080 and I've tested them on my 60" TV for quality purposes - they look pretty darn good. :D The quality of the scenes themselves go back and forth between HD, SD, and unfinished CG.
Hi, all. First off, let me say how encouraging it was to find this thread! You guys are awesome for working at getting this thing together. :)
I read through the thread again but I wasn't entirely sure if these are still needed to complete the collection - I own the SmartGlass version of Into Darkness and I was able to capture the deleted scenes with Bandicam. If they're needed, I can redo the capture (I did it with the free version of the program so the Bandicam watermark is ever-present) and throw the files at whoever needs them; just let me know.
