Hey DFNYC

I realise you have a huge amount on your plate at present, but I was wondering if there was any update on your other Indiana Jones stuff that hasn't been posted at MySpleen?

Either way, keep up the great work!


Yes. I'm actually waiting on Babyhum to see if his master of the making of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom is better than mine. If it is, then i'll use his. That disc will also contain the teaser trailer that hasn't been released on DVD, along with two ABC previews from the first airings on US TV and possibly one other trailer.

The 2nd Indy disc will be the original Electronic Press Kit for the film. I will try and get the two Indy discs out around the same time but again, waiting on Babyhum.

Good luck with that edit. After I do many of the other releases...including several "making of" specials on Jaws, I might get around to doing a different version of it.

again...if you want to discuss a re-edit, that's fine. But there is no extra material to the scene you are suggesting so why bother discussing it. You're the only one who "remembers" it.

I agree that it's a choppy edit. But you have no proof that anything else existed there.

it also has a shitty ADR job.

Again, until you get a videotape (which can be easily found on Ebay) that has what you're looking for, it's the same as the Biggs/Luke scene. People SWEARING they saw it in theaters 30 years ago...but can't prove it. It's the mind playing tricks on you.

Never happened.


Is that an opinion or a fact?

I'm asking if you are calling myself, and others that post over at www.jawsmovie.com that claim to have seen that version of Jaws a liar? Or, are you just trying to rattle me for calling you pedantic (which you were)?

Just want to make sure we keep the known facts separate from anything personal for everyone else here. If you have documented proof from anyone on the Jaws production team that such a version never existed or was never shown, please bring it forward. Apon it's presentation, I will admit myself for psychiatric care for hallucinations.

I'm actually on that board.

And please, feel free to present proof that such a print exists. Until you do, it doesn't.

My family went to see Jaws back in 1975 at a "drive in", and my sister and I remember that scene was complete. Universal wanted a softer film for the teen crowd, and wanted the gore of that autopsy cut back. If you look at the scene you can see the obvious edit. It's just after Hooper says, "This is what happens"....

Not sure what else on the second disc. I don't have much more room at this point. Might just put some DVD-Rom bonus features on there.


You might consider putting the full soundtrack on the DVD-ROM features.


Ha. I'm putting a lossless version of the Gongo soundtrack on there. Already ahead of you.

There was a different version on the other 2 disc set but it was atrocious. I think it was called the Esper version. It had sound effects and all sorts of other shit in it. Pointless.

BTW, i got the menu screens today so I'll be putting it together and hopefully seeding this weekend!!!

Shifty, I haven't noticed any problems. I just watched a few small clips on my PC but didn't see anything weird. It definitely looked good enough to hold me over until I get a blu-ray burner

I've thought of doing this...and it has been brought up. You just have to search.

There are no deleted scenes beyond what has already been put onto DVD. There's also not much one could do with what has been released.

Beyond inserting the deleted scenes, there's nothing to do with the film. It's pretty much perfect as it is.

I'll say right off that this is going to sound completely insane, but bear with me:

DF, your release of Blade Runner is kind of a unique situation as far as fan-releases go, because you're using an HD source, so what I was wondering was, besides a standard DVD release, would it be possible to do an xvid release as well, but in a large filesize (eg 4.37 gigs), in order to preserve the quality of the source as much as possible? Just a thought.


I've never done Xvid. As far as I know, Quicktime is the only one that can do an HD version on one disc and to be honest, I have too many other "releases" i'd like to deal with. This BR thing just kinda happened quickly and I'm doing it quickly. Sorry.

OK here's the deal, folks:

I'm not putting the Blade Runner discs out this week. I've been thinking a lot about it and rather than rush it, I'm going to do it right. I'm also going on a little vacation so I'll be back next week. It will also give Bunnydojo time to work on the menus and exclusive artwork. However, here's what to look forward to.

Disc 1
Movie (mastered from HD, 5.1 Surround)
Original Trailer
Director's Cut Trailer
"Future Shocks" documentary

Disc 2
"On The Edge of Blade Runner" documentary
"Hooray For Hollywood" special

Not sure what else on the second disc. I don't have much more room at this point. Might just put some DVD-Rom bonus features on there.
