sounds familiar to me


Guess I better get it uploaded before Rikter does. Kinda stupid to have both of us with the same master uploading them. I thought that was the point of this...not to duplicate.

Yeah he meant that all the extra scenes on the DVD set are taken from the additional stuff in the Epic and Saga versions, except for an alternate intro to part 2 that aired with the Saga version on TV.

Something else I just remembered is that many tv airings of Godfather 3 have a different opening which is a montage of scenes from GF1 and 2 to recap the story, but shown as flashbacks as Michael sits and ponders it all at the Lake Tahoe estate (the same shot we see of him at the end of the theatrical GF2). However it looks like they used extra unused GF2 footage of him from that scene for this alternate opening between the flashback moments.



Yup...i remember that as well. I think that was when they showed all 3 of them...as a trilogy...on some station. The extended G2 has something similar i believe...plus footage that was eventually used in 3 I believe...plus quiet moments of the Corleone estate early in the morning before the party.

From that auction description I'm betting this is a VHS dub from a TV broadcast like I described above, from the Bravo channel or Spike TV. And that means its censored and potentially has sloppy editing from cutting out the commercial interruptions. The best way to do this project would be to use the GF Epic/Saga laserdiscs, perhaps even editing together an ultimate cut with the unique extra scenes that each version has, as well as the extra deleted scenes from the DVD that neither version implemented.


There are no scenes on the DVD's that neither version included. The only thing that has scenes not included on the DVD was the Saga airing. It has an alternate intro to part 2. All the DVD's included were the scenes from the VHS/Laserdisc sets. The DVD was pretty slippily put together, IMHO.

I actually have a VERY busy business life and do other projects with my musical interests that aren't even listed here. I might attend to some of those since they're sitting on my hard drive. I might throw up some others that are already mastered but we'll see. I have no immediate plans to release any of the other titles. It may just be what i'm feeling in the moment or what's easiest to complete.
I do have a bunch of discs to get to Babyhum because he was going to use some of my masters for Star Wars stuff...plus I wanted to do some more Indy stuff.

Thanks for the support and the interest! Please let me know what you think when it's done downloading.

In any case, this should work for you once you amend the path of BeSweet & names of the source/destination ac3 files:


"C:\BeSweet.exe" -core( -input "C:\Source.ac3" -output "C:\Destination.ac3" ) -azid( -c normal ) -ac3enc( -b 384 -6ch )


I have no clue what you just said.

BH, what are your sources for the Making of SW and Empire? Just curious cause I've done my own versions.


They are indeed the Japanese remastered laserdiscs.


Ah. It's really too bad about those subtitles. I'd rather take my VHS sourced once (which look great) than having japanese subtitles written all over it.


It is too bad, but, before anybody starts bitching about the subtitles on these forthcoming releases, I'm releasing them purely for those who want a better quality image and of course, our Japanese friends who would appreciate a subtitled release. There are plenty of non-subtitled versions out there. Maybe DFNYC would want me to release his transfers?


Actually...all the transfers I've seen were the ones with the subtitles. Not trying to start a fight. If you want to release mine, go right ahead!

Authoring DL DVD's?

I don't think it was set properly because when i played it back on my PC, there was no pause where I had set it.
I haven't tried it on my regular player (which has no problem playing burned DL discs). I guess i'd have to watch the whole movie to figure out if it was placed at the right section.

I guess what i'm asking is:
If i go into pre-mastering and set the layer break (with the red O next to it), I'm assuming it's set and all I have to do is burn like usual?
