I also wish the best for Laserman. Although, I'm not a major contributor to the OT site, I have been a member of this site for sometime and really enjoy the community as a whole! I've learned a lot of things on this site, obtained some things that I was looking for, and also helped others obtain things they were looking for. I've looked forward to the X0 project since I first learned about it. Maybe we'll see it come to fruition one day, but first and foremost I wish Laserman and his family nothing but the best!
I don't know details of his illness... is there anything we can do to help (donations)?

There is no indication that it is cropped down at http://www.dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=5556

I have the R2 2nd Sight edition and the quality is awful. Like all the other releases, it's public domain.

A HD sourced version would be fantastic!!!

I started a thread on this elsewhere, but for the record, I would LOVE to see a fan-edit of the 8th Halloween movie: Halloween: Resurrection. I am a long time, die-hard fan of the Halloween movies, and Resurrection was such a disappointment. However, I think enough material is there that it could be somewhat salvaged. (Spoilers) I think if you re-cut the film to have Laurie's death occur at the end of the film, it would be much more dramatic. I would edit it so that the opening stays the same up until the camera goes through the window of Laurie's room and holds on her, then dissolve to the shot outside the college. I would then intersperse shots/scenes of Laurie througout the movie (as if she knows Michael is coming once he's kills all the teens in his house and she's getting ready for him), saving their dramatic meeting for the final act, giving her character a proper send-off.


Personally, i would cut out the whole Big Brother aspect of H8 and instead using the opening 10-15 mins of the film and edit it into H20. The film would come full circle at the end.
