It doesn't play Sega CD, but if this is for real, I want to be having it:

Yeah, the time rotor is weird, the scraping sounds usually lined up with the up-down movement, now there's a thing that spins at a regular rate. I like the colors though, my favorite interior so far of the new Whos.
I missed the Christmas special, but read a summary. So The Doctor thinks Clara is special because no one dies twice? Didn't each of the Ponds die like 3 times? Could someone clarify that for me?
I do like that he wants her to come along because he's curious about her, not the other way around. After reading that she died in the special too, I was kind of hoping/afraid that she would die in this one too. It'd be neat to have someone he couldn't keep alive but kept finding, but on the other hand we'd have to go through the whole "Doctor who?" "It's bigger on the inside!" bit every episode.
Probably the clone thing.
Ten and Rose are going to be in the 50th special.

Jar Jar was Vader's top priority during the Jedi Purge.
Complete with some of the SE changes? That would be silly, but I'm sure someone has done it. ;-)Gomu69 said:
Does that mean there's a GOUT-synced version of the Blu-ray floating about or is that just plain silly?
Stylized how? You can find vectors of both logos pretty easily. I think I have them saved in 5 different areas of my hard drive.bkev said:
Those are indeed better than the ones I found if only because of the logos but I really prefer how the text doesn't get in the way of the faces on doublex's. If I had the talent I'd take a crack at making a copy myself. I've always really liked these covers for some reason. Very elegant and restrained, even though they're much like the photoshop jobs people despise so much today.
edit- does anyone have those stylized THX/Lucasfilm logos in high res? I've made my own custom versions of this set but the spine looks a little empty without them. I'd of course be happy to share if anyone's interested with the finished project, but it's a pretty quick fix. I just upped the contrast so the black levels were consistent and took the fronts from Mackey's folder & the backs from the set I had.
Burning it to DVD then transferring it, that's what I was missing! Now I really want to finish my full-screen VHS "preservation" of Revisited!ilovewaterslides said:

All jokes aside, I do have a VCR and it would be fun to transfer to VHS and see what it looks like on the old format. Although I'm not sure whether letterbox or fullscan would be better.
Believe it or not, i am actually making this right now!
I converted the movie to PAL 25fps with a 4% speed up. French audio/French crawl. But it's still quite interesting. I've created a DVD and i'm capturing it on a VHS. I will upload a sample here as soon as possible ;)
Edit: I'm using the V2.0 and i'm doing it in letterbox.
After watching it a few times, you really get a feel that this is a quasi-autobiographical movie. Wiseau feels that he is this great guy, a loving boyfriend, a trusted friend, benefactor to local orphans. I think one time his girlfriend cheated on him, and so he started this persecution complex, which resulted in him making a movie about how awesome he is and how he was betrayed. I think it's like a Taylor Swift song, he wrote it so one person would feel bad, but we all get the benefits of it being public.FanFiltration said:

"The Room"
Loved It!
Tommy Wiseau is the best sounding actor since Terence Hill!
I had posted this very late last night and did not remember to comment on why I enjoyed this film. The truth is that the film is very tragically bad, but I am enamored with Tommy Wiseau's ego. It's fascinating and enjoyable to observe this man's complete disconnect with reality and rules of motion picture storytelling. Having known the overwhelming amount of control Tommy had going into the picture was a key factor in my enjoyment of the movie. The closest thing I can think to compare the strange feeling I get watching the combination of poor acting, directing, script, plot, is that uncanny valley thing, but in reverse. With "The Room", it's a positive emotional response I am getting when I logically should just turn the crap off. My mind and reason knows It's a really horribly terrible movie, but something is slightly off that makes me attracted to it. I feel that I am about to have a long strange relationship with "The Room" experience.
SWB should be on its own disc. Which it is. Which means it would be a separate download. Which it is. We can suggest people watch it, but we already do. ;-)Guspaz said:
Sure, I mean, I already have the a copy of the thing, I just thought it would be fitting seeing as how many commercial movie releases have behind-the-scenes documentaries, and including a fan-documentary with a fan-edit as a bonus feature would be neat.
Poor "Enterprise", not even counted! ;-)chyron8472 said:
It's perfectly fine for people to prefer the "Prime Universe," but they still have 24 seasons and 10 movies to fall back on. The problem wasn't with pleasing hardcore fans, it's with gaining new ones--which is the opposite of Star Wars' problem as I see it.

I'm not sure of an existing edit that will cater to your needs...
Oh crap, if the credits aren't used, does that mean that I am not in the credits?!
I've been saying this for years, and I made the credits list! ;-)
When it's done. Summer, probably.

I know they're fake, but I really want them.
Haha, no. Though Minecraft would be incredible with them...xhonzi said:
Can't remember what's in your hands? Look at them. :)
Are you getting one 005?
My favorite part of the Rift instructions for TF2 was something about how some of the weapons are held lower, so if you can't remember what you have equipped you can just look down.
Is this the future? Because it sounds like we're getting there.
That's not his last name. It's based on it...AntcuFaalb said:

Then again, I do know what Adywan's name is.
You also know what Harmy's name is. You just don't know his first name.
It would be great to just have a nice HD video showing the difference in quality of the un-enhanced GOUT (with black bars all the way around) to some of the preservations.

I'm with you too!
Team Fortress 2 is already ready to work with it. I read the set up instructions on the TF2 wiki last night.Johnny Ringo said:
Is anyone really developing for the Rift outside of John Carmack? - Cool if so but I haven't really heard much of anything.
I love that even though you didn't like the film, you still decided to give the books a shot.Johnny Ringo said:
The Hunger Games. After seeing and hating the film I was wondering if the book really was that bad. Turns out it's actually pretty good. finished part 1, on to part 2.
