Rikter,

Did you ever upload a torrent for the DC supplementals disk with the commentary tracks etc? I don't remember seeing it.

Daveytod,

You seem to be getting major flack from a couple of pricks over at Myspleen over this torrent.

Here's some interesting star wars art for you. Looks like Anakin(vader) is having an altercation with the sith here.

Guess who's coming to dinner?

This maybe very unpopular but I would vote to remove the whole millennium falcon gunner sequence from ANH it detracts from a very important scene that occurs just prior to it and as the guns aren't used ever again I wouldn't miss this scene at all.

This film is showing on channel 4 in the UK as I’m typing. It has Liam Neeson amongst the cast and his character looks an awful lot like a younger Qui Gon. Perhaps some of you completist Star Wars editors would do well to check this out for any new footage you might require.

My latest attempt at a customised version of this with Alec Guinness as OB1

Their was some speculation that Vaders suit would be a prototype design for ROTS during filming. Whether it was really considered or just a rumour is anyone's guess, although their where some pretty convincing drawings and old EU illustrations flying around the net at the time. I remeber one that looked pretty cool was a bit like an old fashioned frogman's respirator and big red goggles, the head was unprotected ie just bald. Looked Good!!

This was the last time I saw a Star Wars film at the cinema. And after I'd seen it I felt somewhat dissapointed after all the hype. Although to be fair I had similar feelings after seeing ROTJ in '83. The acting was competent though, barring the cartoon like Gungan and podrace scenes.

I think the point is that despite all the posturing france makes in the EU parliament they have one of the most selfish and intolerent societies within the EU and we Brits and other nationalities hate being told what to do by idiotic french politicians who can't even get their own house in order.

I have those 2 covers. They are great though I think they would look better with Alec Guinness as OB1, so all the characters are as we saw them for the last time (perhaps the older Yoda in the OT would be better as well). Any bored artists willing to give it a go?

Is this only visible on your computer? if so it could either be the disks themselves or perhaps your graphics hardware/software. Have you tried a different computer?

If an anniversary boxset does come out in 2007 GL should call them directors cuts as he should have been doing since 1997. I can't really see him changing much for the forseeable future, perhaps CG yoda in TPM would be a decent change.

Wait for another 20 years until 2027 and if GL hasn't shuffled off his mortal coil Ewan and Hayden would be about the right age for.... No I don't even want to go there.

If GL does tinker with the PT I hope he removes Maul and Grievous, totally pointless characters (apart from selling toys), even worse than Jar Jar. Chris Lee should have been the main protagonist throughout the PT and given more screen time ala Vader in the OT.

Never rely on hollywood to stay faithfull to any historical fact or fiction when they make a film. I didn't bother with LOTR after the 1st film, I have no doubt they will change TLTWATW's story line to. The trick is to see the films then read the books, unforunately most of the generations alive today had to do the opposite so we're always going to be disappointed.

I'm sorry, but the search function seems to be a bit limited (only searches thread titles).

Anyway, I thought that the rotational speed difference would only yield a different frame rate but otherwise compliant PAL signal. I didn't think of the effects on the modulated signal. Since both PAL and NTSC video signals are FM modulated onto a 7,1MHz carrier, playing that back at a wrong speed would shift the carrier frequency, probably causing demodulating to fail. Also, I just noticed the technical discussion forum, where I should have posted this instead. I guess I got too excited about the prospect of playing back PAL discs on the X0. Sorry about that.

I don't think you should worry about it, finding or making a X0 equivalent PAL player has been a reoccuring topic since the beginning of the presevation efforts.

You can find detailed information of the NTSC and PAL laserdisc formats here:

The LaserDisc Technical Page

As you can see the NTSC carrier is 8.1Mhz and the PAL is 7.1Mhz, also the BW and sound carriers are different so very likely also the filters before the demodulation stage need to be changed.
