Yes, I was talking about the Godfather. I guess it is the same documentary. Anyway, would you please tell me if the John Cazale documentary is in this torrent and if not, if you would mind uploading it?

I can definitely upload it. It's not a part of this torrent.

What audio options will be available on the Blu-ray? That's what I'll be downloading.

Thanks, Harmy! :)

Well, there were plenty of interviews in the Blu-Ray special features box set.

Are you talking about The Godfather? Because there really isn't. It's the same singular documentary that was created to promote the third film in the early 90's.

Cool. Sounds good, dfnyc.

Unfortunately, the documentary was a huge disappointment, for me. Too many film clips and not enough interviews.
The saving grace for it was never-before-seen home video footage from the family that owned the house that stood in for the compound. There was also additional screen test footage that wasn't shown in the 1990 documentary.

It kills me that Jaws and the Star Wars films have had numerous documentaries and The Godfather has really only had one. :(

I like Rinzler, seems pretty cool. I do wish the INDY book had really gotten into the nitty gritty of CRYSTAL SKULL but I think it will be years before anyone does a really thorough autopsy on that.

I really wish EACH film had gotten their own book. Putting all of them in 1 was a travesty.

I finished downloading this now. Thanks a billion, DFNYC! I burned both discs to BD and printed cover art. So far, I've watched Episode 1. Excellent quality I must say, far better than my recording on my DVR; of course, the lack of commercials is great.

I noticed some occasional, non-bothersome digital artifacts; I assume this is a side effect of the capture. It manifests as slight distortions (i.e. an odd row of pixels lower section of the image). It certainly doesn't seem like a bad burn to me. In any case, it doesn't bother me one bit. Just thought I should point it out.

Also, I forgot. Where did the replacement for the missing section of your recording come from?

It might have been from my recording from AMC. It does blip out (has since been fixed) but it shouldn't be too often.

Enjoy the extras?

Did anyone have any issues with TPB still?

two questions

1. i've located the torrent on PB but i couldn't seem to find it on demonoid. the torrent from PB isn't very fast, would the demonoid one be better if i could find it?

2. i don't have a blu-ray player. in fact i'm not positive if my laptop can play blu-rays. will these files play in vlc?

There was a problem with the demonoid one so i had to delete it, unfortunately.

I'm the only seeder so it can only go so fast. It's averaging between 200 and 250kb/s. That's as fast as I can go.

No idea how long this is going to take to seed completely.

Nice sounding release, digitalfreaknyc! Out of curiosity, where will the torrent be uploaded? I'm very interested. Myspleen may not be the best place considering the recent take down of movie torrents, such as the custom BD of Big Blue (another ot.com project)...

I used demonoid and PB.

digitalfreaknyc is it all done?

If it's not one thing, it's another. The sync is ok but the latest authoring didn't include the Godfather 3 alternate opening. I have to try and re-do AGAIN today.

I can't WAIT until this is over. :) lol
And i hope you all enjoy it. lol

I spent the day yesterday with my best friend and saw Prometheus.

Does anyone happen to have Basic Instinct on DVD from Germany, Holland, Portugal, Scandinavia, Spain and the UK?

There is a featurette on it that's 6:29 and I'm working on a project. It's not on the R1 version.

Wow! I've always been interested in the Godfather Saga version. Now I may finally get to see it.

Any chance someone will do a compressed 720p version? I don't need the massive 1080i version myself...

That's already out there if you wanted it.
