YouTube/Vimeo/etc... Star Wars video finds
Time

Opening from France : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFg6iMK3ikM

Neeto, Big Green LFL logo!  "SOUS-TITRAGE CODE" is a french closed captioning term.  Would that make this a televised recording.  But that slight red fade on the right side seems more of a film conversion issue.

Here's another version which has a noticable bend to it, leading me to think it's a theater recording.

Most of the OT trailers subbed in french.

Wow!  Added.  How did you come across the site? (search process notes)

The problem with contacting them, is how do you come across as not a douche.  

So now it seems that RotJ is the elusive one.

 

Here's another ESB betamax bootleg reference:

I've always questioned the validity that Star Wars was titled "A New Hope" since 1977. Somewhere in my stacks, I've got a 1981 Betamax bootleg copy of Empire Strikes Back. I'm going to look for it one day and see what changes were made from the original.

90 min review of episode 1. this guy has the best review ever. funny as hell and right on the money
Time

so prequel  fans please go right ahead and  defend this to me  and tell me how I and so many others are wrong for being upset at all this.

If this is what you want, then write to this guy: http://www.bigshinyrobot.com

from your first post:

If anyone defends the prequels....after watching this  I dont see how they can

BigShinyRobot wrote several piece explaining where the RLM review went awry in his point of view.  Here's the first of those responses:

It's been 5 years, ask yourself why do you want them defended.  Your opinion is obvious, we can poke holes in your logic, but your overall sentiment won't be swayed.  If you want to convert the heathens, you are generally in the wrong place.

there is much to do and be told for that period.  the reformtion of the jedi order, the rebuilding of the republic, what is left of the empire.

Weren't the prequels all about the deformation of the jedi order, the dismantling of the republic and the forming of the empire, and that sucked according to you, why would you want more of this kind of storytelling?

if there are new jedis to be trained then there will of course be new sith.

So we're going to go through all this building just to bring back some bad guys.  The PT story is the overthrow by the sith, what could be more exciting then that?

according to the pt the sith have been extinct of over a 1000  yrs.  that means NO ONE on the jedi council had ever fought or encountered a sith before lol. 

why is this lol?

no one on the copincil had any experince  lightsaber dueling a sith.  just another example of the pathetic writing that went into the prequels.

Maybe that's why the Jedi failed?  How is this pathetic writing?  besides the copincil part.

the whoile stupid idea of the sith rule of two.  yet  vader and the emperor  want to recruit luke and make him a sith. of course when  epiusode 5 was made there was no such thing as a sith rule of two so it made perfect sense.  but now thanks to the pt  crap  it is just another plot  blunder. 

Vader and the Emperor want Luke to replace the Emperor or Vader.  The rule of two still works in Ep5. 

the nightmare never ends thanks to the  pathetic pt films.   and to think some SO CALLED fans  defend  that garbage.  haha amazing.  truly amazing

You are just as amazing.  And where can I find your "SO CALLED" fan badge, i'll wear it with honor.

 

RLM's review is ONE YEAR OLD, where have you been?

Fractalsponge's 3dmeshes used in Family Guy : Credit Not Given - Awaiting RotJ
Time

This right now is a court of public opinion case.  From what I understand of Fractalsponge's work, is he makes the models.  Source material is probably used to layout the overall volumes and certain details which have been defined, but as is the case with these 'placed bumps' that's the work of the model maker.  When downloading the model, the downloader agrees to give credit when the model is used (financial or not), that's the terms of use. 

Download and read through their terms of use:

http://scifi3d.com/details.asp?intGenreID=10&intCatID=8&key=517

You can set whatever terms you want when releasing something into the wild.  The Open Software movement, says you can use programs and modify them As long as you make the next results open source as well.

For a real court, they might have the files from each side compare dates and if there were iterations saved that would sway to one side or the other.  Using website stats they might be able to place when the file was DL'd from LFL.

What stinks is this is possibly the third time, for the same model.
