Lee, these caps look wonderful. My question is: How did you get the LD content in 16:9? Through Streamclip or FCP?
Yet another book we have to buy..... ;)
Splinter is interesting because it gives us an interesting "what if" of what Star Wars could have been like with a more mystical bent (Kaiburr crystal etc.).

Mine Smell Like Honey-R.E.M.
Yes they are from a shot change. Thank goodness it's only these three.
I noticed those when I was forced to watch it as a child. (Donald Pleasance with hair? Ahhhhhh!)
Cassavettes's Shadows
Well, I just went through Dr. No on the Connery Collection and felt transported. Laserdisc continues to bring back childhood memories. The colors seemed properly balanced-the sound was perfect-and there were even a couple of reel change markers!
I didn't think there could be much improvement from the 1989 series, but this really feels improved.
Anybody know what might have caused these frames? Possibly glue?
Same here. I'm psyched to see the finished product whenever it is finished!
The attention being given is astonishing. After listening to the BBC interview maybe you should enter the official fan film contest Jambe!
We denizens of the jundland wastes will make it into Chalmun's someday...

I watched Beetlejuice last night for the first time since I was twelve; I didn't like it then, and I don't like it now.
Blasphemy!
I never really liked it. I do like Keaton and Baldwin. I wish Burton would make something interesting again though.
I didn't know there's a book of the NPR dramatization. Still need to read the Lando books. I've got a copy somewhere in the Kessel mines...
Wow. I had always wondered what contributions Marcia may have made and what exactly led to their breakup. Can't say I'm very surprised.
I will read this however. :)
Well, they finally set the date. I had hoped this would fall through somehow. Never will I see a 3D Star Wars . As I've said before, this is what made me completely lose faith (not that there was much) in Lucasfilm and George. It is the ultimate cash grab and an insult.
The Daley Han Solo adventures top all for me, but are they fully considered EU?
Thrawn trilogy, Han Solo trilogy, Dark Forces arc, Splinter of the Mind's Eye, Shadows of the Empire, Courtship of Princess Leia, Hand of Thrawn
as far as the prequels go:
Jedi Apprentice, Jedi Quest, Shatterpoint (yeah! Star Wars meets Apocalypse Now!!), Last of the Jedi.
I also quite like the "Tales from ..." books.
The Reflex (45 mix)-Duran Duran. Just finished my first needledrop!!

My understanding is that it is only certain sections that are damaged, no? If a full-film transfer is out of the question, wouldn't a salvage job of certain reels be viable? Because the previous clip demonstrated that at least parts of the film look great.
Very much this.
Yes. It should certainly be utilized for this if possible.
Really sorry to hear that. I noticed the bottom of the frame on artoo's closeup and it moving at the end on the sample.
Maybe something is salvageable.
I agree that the raw version should be released. The sample looks absolutely stunning!!
We must be cautious.

Se7en is another film I wish I hadn't bothered to watch, being basically a Doctor Phibes film without the wit, style or laughs and dollops of tedious pretension.
You know that's kinda true. If only the third Phibes film had been made. But we at least got Theater of Blood.
The Day the Earth Stood Still. I don't know why it took me so long to see this one, but it is really really well done. Absolutely deserves its classic reputation. Full of little small moments that remind you just how much small touches are lacking in today's world.
avoid the Keanu version at all costs.
Ahh. The joys of film school. And I bet they probably don't know what you're talking about anyway. Anytime I mention THX I get the eye roll or what's that or you're crazy. The last one I get virtually every day on the hour.
Discoverer-R.E.M. for about the 100th time.
Have put the album on repeat all day.
