Isn't that one called Geordie Star Wars? Although it is the OT, not PT.

I'd rather they made the best transfer they could and left the 'fixes' for the people here. There were matte lines when I first saw it at the cinema, so there ought to be now. It would be easier for some of the talented people here to fix it later, than put them back in! So long as they include enough high quality bonus materials for people to reinsert whichever crawl they like then it'll be good.

For me Star Wars always wasn't only the story. It was also the created models built together and filmed them in stop motion or the aliens and the art they were made. Soon I can watch these "handmade" (no modern computer-animatic-trash etc.). Only these "handmade" films are the real Star Wars films to me.

Same sentiment here. It's probably one of the reason's I love Star Wars so much. One of the last great non-CGI blockbusters. There's been a lot of good sci-fi films since, but they don't inspire the same awe when you look at the computer technology we have around now. You only have to look at IMPS to see what a few people can do with a few computers.

One question I haven't seen answered. Is it going to be a worldwide release in September, or US only?

I think this is on one of the OCPMovie outings. Possibly Return of the Ewok?

I know I only watched it a few weeks back. It was so bad that I've made countless people watch it since

Great site.

All that's needed now is to link your site with Grisan's so once you've got a copy of the OT you can easily match it up with suitable covers.

Is the UK DVD full widescreen and uncut?

When I was looking for this DVD a few years back the only full, widescreen version was the Spanish edition on Manga Films.

I definately agree with your sentiment Rikter. But it's only a few minutes work to rip the ISO to video folders if someone wanted to strip the nfo out.

Personally I like ISOs. It's harder to accidently lose files that way!

The one film I'd love a DVD conversion of Bad Channels.

Anyone have this one?

This film was never released here in the UK in any format, or at the cinema or even been shown on TV as far as I'm aware.

I don't think region encoding is an issue other than on commercial discs. It's just a PAL/NTSC thing.

Go buy a cheap DVD player that will play PAL discs. Don't convert PAL to NTSC. It is a complete waste of time and will reduce the quality.

This is even after I change the settings. I'm assuming there is some small thing I can do that I'm not. Can anyone help me? Also, I have a Dell computer and printer if that helps.

If you still have problems, try googling for a program called CoverXP. It's a handy little program that will let you print sleeves to the right size for DVD cases, irrespective of the original images dimensions or resolutions.

Nice covers Hallway Orchard.

Any chance you could put the 'k' in 'making-of' on line 4 of the description on the back cover?

Thanks

DVD9 is not always necessary, and is simply too expensive for general use.

Maybe for general use. But the burners are very cheap now and the discs will come down in price, just as DVD5 discs, and CDRs before them. have.

All the time there are people here who will spend a few hundred dollars on a new LD player for any improvement in quality, no matter how slight, I'm sure there will be people who will pay the extra couple of dollars for a blank DL disc.

Personally I'm happy with DVD5, but if you're striving for the best possible it seems a bit silly to stop just short of what's possible.

Alternatively just send the high bidders a friendly email and point out where they might be able to download a copy considerably cheaper.

Why not do a DVD5 and DVD9?

Surely all the hard work comes before the encoding - same source AVI not matter what the destination. Or am I missing the point?

You could just spread the VOB files over two DVD5s for distribution and let people put them back together on to a DVD9 and burn them themselves.

What web browser are you using?

I use Firefox which automatically scales individual images to fit the screen if I right click them and select 'view image'.

Maybe your browser has something similar... otherwise I highly recommend Firefox

I sat down with more 4 year old and half way through she kept pestering me to watch Thumb Wars! Oops.
