Didn't -1 get some extended trailer way back when?

Wait what?  There's subs past six episodes, Gaff?

This is a bit more light-hearted (mainly due to the upbeat music) than MMPR.  And I love it.  Its theme song is pretty neat too.

As much as I agree with everyone else, I must admit.  Hmm, red throne room... that wouldn't look too bad actually.

If you count edited-for-TV versions of anime, there are COUNTLESS.  Not sure if those are worth counting, though - they're more curiosities.

I'm still looking for that Harmony Gold dub... there were what, 1-2 episodes and a movie?  That is hard to find.  The collectors who have it aren't exactly gonna release it out, even just the audio.  Templeotrunks has a few audio clips, though.

GE 999 is a streaming thing too.  Just not the movies.  Never been a fan of DOING that, but at least it's available.

Sky, the VIZ dub is uncut (complete with swearing).  Then there's the Roger Corman dub which is just.... no... typical eighties dub.  However, they did keep the original score and even dub a song - one and only redeeming factor.

While Galaxy Express IS easily available via either Korea or Japan, the VIZ dub is lost to the VCR bargain bin. 

I would LOVE if someone picked up the series at one point, even if only for a sub only release.

Haha, that would explain why the commentary's off.  Oh well.

Oh dear.  I don't even know if curiosity is worth sitting through the Roger Corman version...

They didn't even tell us about that... shame, as I DEFINITELY would have done that.  However, I did get my boots & nalgene branded - so that was kind of cool.

In case anyone's interested, someone upped a VHS copy on youtube in English.  Thought I'd pass that along, for those less tech-savy.

You guys are making me want to find my game boy color, even though I got no clue where it is.  MUST FINISH YELLOW DAMN IT!

Hi everyone,

  Given the recent surge in preservation efforts of Star Wars and certain forum member's posts, I've noticed there might be a good amount of desire to do this.  While obviously this would leave more content in the fanedit section, overall this might be a good trade-off.  Consolidate the fan edit forums into one, and the preservation as well.  Lots of work, I know, but I really think that's a good idea.

Thoughts?

Nope, I didn't even know that was part of a single program.  Probably not on my itinerary.

Sounds like it could've been fun though...

TPM's definitely mirrors the Infinity for ANH.  And all of those sound interesting.

Man, that's so awesome.  Grats dude!

Sounds like an average layer break to me.  That's about halfway through the movie right?

That happens in every custom DVD that's a dual layer; even Verbatims do that.  The only way a DVD doesn't do that is if it's made by a company.

Best. Thread. I ever missed.

Seriously though, some of these are GENIUS!

Oh man, Star Wars prequel infinities would rule.  I remember I picked up the first issue of ESB's and loved it.

Yeah, I had a BLAST!  I did a lot better on the hiking than I thought I would.  But boy, do I have stories to tell!  If anyone's interested that is.

The Tooth, unfortunately, was  a letdown.  The one day they get "typical" August weather (fog and more fog) is the day we go for the sunrise.  Cool to see all the ladybugs, though - and I lost my flashlight to the Tooth!  Heh.

Gotta say, I've seen a few edits that re-add Lapti Nek to the scene, however this one is definitely the best.  Others I've seen awkwardly cut to the album / single version, with no atmospheric audio.

I hope you do post a HQ version!

Win.

Didn't wanna act like I was super duper important, so I made a general thread that could be used by others, just in case they're going on a trip and feel like alerting everyone else.  Ya know, just so people don't go "WHERE'S SO-AND-SO?"

Just lettin yall know that I'm going away for 2 weeks at Philmont, scout ranch in New Mexico.  Backpacking at least 66 miles, will return on the 19th.  Cya then dudes and dudettes!

I'd start my own thread but then I'd be on a bandwagon.  And people HATE guys who're just in it for popularity.

So... how bout that Nanner?

What the title says.  Do you have a favorite in the Star Wars universe?   Be it one of the movies, or EU literature?  If you're familiar with the latter, please feel free to bring it up.  Forgive me if this has been done, but all of a sudden the concept is on my mind.

Movies:  I'm actually very conflicted on this.  As much as I love The Empire Strikes Back for its character development and shining moments, I think at least right now that pleasure belongs to the original Star Wars.  No matter which way I watch it, the movie just clicks.  The movie has great flow, and characters that - while you couldn't relate to them - you could care for.  It could stand on its own, which is something I dont' believe ESB could manage.  It's such a joy to watch all the way through.  The movie's a triumph, what with all the problems the development went through.  The true story of an underdog - both in the movie and outside.  I watch this movie at least once a year.

EU: Jedi Apprentice kids book series, mostly by Jude Watson.  Though I prefer Dave Wolverton's style (he wrote the first book), she does good too.  There's a certain something about this series that I like - it just shows that even though the prequels all that good, a lot of good can come from establishing a vague picture of the time period.  Following Obi-Wan's days as an Apprentice, it shows just a bit more of both Obi-Wan's hot-headedness and Qui-Gon's stubborn manner.  Who didn't like Qui-Gon?

Fine on IE tab.

Hmm, speaking of which, the blank space to the right that always bothers me in Firefox is nowhere to be found in IE.
