I don't seem to have it but I know FF grabbed it before it got lost. Maybe he still has it.
There was a post in one of the Bond threads recently with a torrent that had ...basically everything that's never gotten an official release... you could want. It was in that, but I can't find the thread - or the blog that the post in question linked to.

They are just expressing there opinion on the Saga.
If that was just the case, then there would be no problem. But with farter Skywanker, all he is doing is trying to get attention. The constant "gorgeous god-like Hayden" posts are tiresome. he is doing all this crap deliberately. Just take a deeper look and you will see that many of his post will directly contradict his so called opinions in other threads he is trolling. He wants to be the centre of attention.
I put him on ignore but it's impossible for me to ignore him when others quote him, plus when i click on "first unread post" it only takes me to the top of the page and not to the first unread post if he was the first to post.
O.k. they have gone to far, but they are just expressing their opinion. The "God- like Hayden" is a WAY WAY WAY too much though. And just stop trolling o.k. Sykwalker. Because you can get banned.
Now just Drop the subject. I won't say no more.
"they"? That's it. Pat man and Father are in kahoots!

Well said. I liked the designs in Episode One myself as well.
Another thing that I always try to explain is that in all honesty I think it's the closest George ever got to what he wanted in the first place. It is really episodic, just like a movie serial. If you're a believer in the saga of Anakin Skywalker (I'm not), you really could skip this movie without any repercussions - like how you could probably walk into the Batman & Robin serials without having seen the preceding Batman one.
Another thing about it is that I always felt like it never tried to be anything more than a kids' movie. I found, despite more "serious" scenes like in the jedi temple, a rather consistent tone - more than I can say for the following two. There's an innocence I feel in it that I don't in any of the others... but that might be nostalgia goggles talking. If anyone thinks they can better explain my points give it a shot.
I knew no better the first time I saw the film. Looking at footage of it now the '97 version looks pretty fake. This is one time I'm glad George-o does the endless tinkering, actually. If he's so dead set on Greedo getting to shoot, at least he can make it more convincing.
I see 48fps as a curiosity and nothing more. I imagine it will take off much like 3D but will take a long time for it to become the norm.
As for film vs video as a certain someone typically managed to wrangle into this discussion? I've stopped caring. As long as the digital cameras are of high quality I don't care. It's more what's done with the medium and less how it's filmed. Of course I don't excuse George Lucas for filming at only 1080p, but if 2k or 4k cameras are used I think it looks just as good as film to my eye. I like films that have grain structure but honestly it's not a deal-breaker if it wasn't filmed that way the way it is with home video. There's a difference between a film being scrubbed of natural grain and it not having much to begin with.

Gin,
Finish the Holiday Special first. THEN we'll help you with this.
we've had this friggin topic for too long. I liked to eat grass when I was five.
To Tyrphanax you listen! Jeez. Drinking like that the guy must get killer hangovers... hopefully he's not the grouchy type with those.
AS THE DEATH STAR TURNS SEASON FINALE
One of my folks's first dates was going to see Rocky Horror. Do I win a prize too?
My first viewing was in 1997. I was three and three-quarters (no more, no less folks.) I had just gotten my hair cut at the barber shop down the street from the theater, and into Return of the Jedi I went. Why start with that? I'm not sure. Maybe it's the only one I asked to see. I'm pretty sure the other two had ended their run at the theater. As the lady who cut my hair had warned me, I itched a lot. Don't remember why that haircut made that happen.
Now being the ultimate target audience for that one I was blown away. I even liked Jedi Rocks for what it was, not knowing a less annoying number once had its place. That following Christmas I'm pretty sure we got the fullscreen SE trilogy. The rest is personal history.
That theater remains one of my favorites to this day and thank God it's still around.
If you're still in LA SilverWook Amoeba Records still has a good stash upstairs. I saw volume one of the Connery Collection there for $5 dollars!
Holy fucking shit. My poetry professor was a member of Welles's Mercury Theatre! He was just a kid then, but he was in "The Apple Tree" broadcast. Holy. Shit. I'm two degrees away from Orson Welles.
Supposedly he was also in Welles's filmed version of Macbeth. Stuff like this just fascinates me.
I think I have a lot to say on this but I haven't quite had the time to consider it yet. Expect an answer from me in due time.
I suppose that invalidates my point quite a bit then. My apologies.
Wait, I'm having deja vu. Wasn't this Babe point brought up recently? Wasn't there some article of some sort he was featured in? Anyway this seems like beating a dead horse to me. He left, and I can only assume with good reasons.
Doing that with a friend once winter break comes along. May or may not remain sober.
