OK just to let you guys know for sure, we have confirmed that once Fright Night Part II is finished we are going to author up Star Wars 77 and A New Hope 97 SE, so not to much longer now, FN2 might be done as early as next week sometime, fingers crossed.
Links for the EE version will be available tomorrow to those interested.
Thanks

So where is this The Black Hole HD file? I have been wanting to do a BD of this forever! I friggin love watching this movie and have a real nice Intrada 24 track CD I just got, could make for a nice score.
I have the 1080p/24 copy that Jonno mentioned from itunes but it sounds like zeropc has a different (hopefully less compressed) copy. The itunes one is about 3.88 GB.
Would you share what you have? there is no mention whether or not the other will be shared, so something is better then nothing.
Thanks

I know you guys said you aren't accepting any more Blu Ray donations, but is there a chance you might make a second run for both versions of ANH?
I would like to but I have switched to a different set of blanks that I will be using from here on out after I use up the old ones and there is only an option for a 50 pack spindle only, so it is not worth it anymore for you guys now I am thinking, these are what I will be using for BD25's.

If that's the case, what are the odds we could, say, PayPal you money and you could send us a slipcase?
(I just like things to look nice.) :p
Not a chance, we accept NO money what so ever, and I am not sure by what you mean anyways, send you a slipcase?

I know it's a bit off topic, but what makes that new version of Verbatim discs better than the last?
I can print on these.

To those that donated, start checking your mailboxes mid next week.
Excellent news:) I can't wait to see how Team Blu knocked another project out of the park.
Well I really hope you guys like the total package, I even made 1 more small surprise since the Conan BD which I think you guys will like.
By the way this is uploaded to a file share site, so anyone interested just drop a PM and I will provide a link to the folder.
Thanks

Just curious.... (and getting very anxious to see these...!) :-)
Is there an ETA for those of us who donated blanks?
Can't wait!
Sorry buy not yet, SW 77 and ANH 97 SE are all ready for authoring and You_Too and I still need to go over ESB, the Team needs to take breaks in between looking at all this SW stuff so that is why we throw in other projects in between the SW stuff, plus 2 of the Team members are taking a short leave at the moment, 1 for personal Life stuff and 1 for health reasons, so the rest of us are doing what we can when we can, so all I can say is at this point we have no problems sending back your blanks if that is what you want, I am sorry some of these projects are taking so long but there is nothing I can do about it, the Team members are spread out all over the World, I am the only one in the US.
I also have had my share of real life taking over at times as well, getting real busy at work, and I will not even look at project stuff this weekend, my Son and Wife and I are in Joliet watching NASCAR this whole weekend, so again sorry, so if any of you decide you want your SW blanks back because we are taking to long we will understand and I will get them to you asap.
But for all you looking for some new stuff coming soon non SW related, NOTLD 90 SE is going to get uploaded this week and Conan The Barbarian Extended will follow very shortly after, these are both done and tested and ready to go!
1 more thing, since Fright Night Part II is almost finished as well I will say that SW 77 and ANH 97 SE BD25's will be next before we move onto both Terminators, True Lies, Swamp Thing, Feast, and The Neverending Story, but ESB and ROTJ will be a while longer, ESB will take the longest for us, the 97 SE's will not take long at all.
Here are larger images of our final FN2 covers.
Here is a larger image of the Official cover and the Alternate cover.

So which version do I have that I posted screens on a few posts back? is this the "wanted" version or the "shit" version lol?
Look through the ones you downloaded and torrented to see which ones have the best film grain retainment. Nothing which looks DNR'd. Larger filesizes with film grain kept would be best.
It's one of the main reasons why I loathe YIFY. Too compressed and low file sizes.
The file I have is big, but is it the wanted version?
To anyone following this project, this is what I hope to be the final specs, if all goes well in the next couple days it will be, I hope you like it.
I wouldn't mind doing blank donations on this but the blanks I will now be using only come in spindles of 50, but we have some very nice goodies in store for those if we could, I will see them for myself hopefully by the end of the week, we also have 2 cover designs to choose from, they will be finalized tomorrow, well anyways here are the specs.

OK I just ordered this card,
http://www.amazon.com/Diamond-Theater-PCIE-Tuner-Card/dp/B003F8O690/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pd_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=3FNYQ0DFNN1CP&coliid=IWESQTQ8WK53Z
so is there any tips or tricks I should know when I test it out? like I said I have only used the Canopus ADVC-110 before so this is new territory for me lol, and as mentioned before I will be using my Pioneer CLD-79 Elite Player, and I assume you guys use VDub for capturing?
Thanks
I'm using win7x64 with this card. I just installed the card and turned on the computer and if I remember right win7 installed a driver automatically and I just used that one. Maybe you'll need the driver from the disc though. I only ever use VDUB for capturing with this card because if I use it with other programs it gets confused and then won't work properly in VDUB without a reinstall sometimes.
If you get it to work I think you'll be happy with the card. If the CLD-79 has any adjustable comb filter settings I'd turn it all completely off or down and let the Theater750HD card handle all of the separation and filtering. That's all I've got. Good luck!
Thank you, so my system should auto detect as well then, I hope lol, now to figure out if my Player has adjustments for comb filter.
Thanks again for some info.

Any chance we could get a cover for a double-disc case that would include both BDs?
If someone else wants to make one up I have no problems with that but I do not want the Team working on anymore Conan stuff, we have to much more going on and we have enough covers for now and we really want to put all this behind us once and for all and move on already lol.

Quick question about the Fox version of the film: does it feature the original closing scroll, or the revised version with Mako reciting the text and “…but that is another story” replaced with “…and that story shall also be told?”
The Fox version is the full extended cut of the movie, the US cut has the original closing text and no Wizard.
OK Everyone,
I have been thinking on doing this long before our US Theatrical was even finished, so when I asked You_Too if he wanted to do it I thought for sure he would say he was not interested because of how long we spent on the US cut, well long story short he loved the idea so now I am pleased to announce we have finished a "Bonus Blu-ray" for Conan The Barbarian!

I'm working on one of the extras for this Blu-ray right now. I can't wait to see the finished project.
And I want to say that it is turning out great! excellent job!
also want to mention that I think you guys are going to be pretty surprised at what we have in store, and I think we have all the extras we can handle now that can fit on a BD25! I will say what they are once final.
Thanks
Damn I would grab some of these if I had a MUSE LD player, I have never even heard of them until this thread, how much do these LD Players run for?
hairy_hen said:
Yes, it was. What I'm talking about now is essentially the same thing, but since I recently gained the ability to upmix using real Dolby Prologic II, the channel separation and imaging are now somewhat improved compared to how it was previously. I'll also eventually do the other two movies the same way, as well.
Great to hear that you are going to do the other 2 movies, we were wondering this.
So will you share the mono wavs?
I hope you guys following our project realize that there really is no promo copy of this put out by the Studio lol, I mean read and think about how he answered already, this is so bullshit it is not even funny, I knew from the start he was selling and it sure did not take long to see it, but we appreciate him muddying up our thread for a legit free release.
I think I may know who it is to, he is from another forum.
You_Too said:
Ok, I can confirm this is a scam attempt.
Those screenshots have fake grain added over them, even in the black bars!
Thanks You_Too for posting in our thread and the email on this, this guy is a flat out joke! I cannot believe I missed the added grain in the black bars LMAO! rookie work for sure.
Guys stay tuned, I actually think we may have some pretty cool extras for this, not many, but some.
lol promo copy with 1080i video and Dolby Digital for audio, to funny!
I also actually have the DD 5.1 track that is on this BD and I can assure you that NO Studio would release this 5.1 track, no way.

Just joined today to show us this, so are you sharing or what is your plans? as you have read we are working on this to share to everyone, well if you can help out with a better source this could be useful, so what are your plans?
I am putting this out there to advertise the best of the best. This is a direct source release, the same type of a release you would expect to see on the shelves at a store, albeit a promotional not an "official" one.
OK where are you sharing this at? and best of the best? well ok then I surely would love to see it, are you going to include any extras? and what is the audio? the video is 1080i so I assume the audio is just Dolby Digital? please share how\when you are going to share and what are the specs for your release?
Please look at my first post, which includes all the video and audio details of this release. There will be no extras. A soundtrack does not count as an extra in my books. This release is available for purchase. If you would like more information on how to purchase this item, inbox me.
WOW, now this is too funny, for purchase you say, well my video guy has not seen your screens yet but I can say your images look NO better or worse then ours, but ours has been color adjusted by You_Too and looks much better, and we will have extras, but either way I see an ban coming lol, it is against the rules to sell this stuff here because I will call it the way I and others see it, this is no promo BD, there is just no way in hell this is true, and I would love to see your proof proving otherwise, but it has been a nice tease to those that were gullible enough to fall for it.
Our version will be available to all for FREE.
1 more thing, ours will be 1080p and have a lossless PCM track, good luck on your sales here LMAO!
