What do you look like?

Seems a good likeness…

Haha, a few years down the road and that probably is similar to what I’ll look like, minus the facial hair but (judging by other men in the family) I’ll still have the hair on my head. 😛

That seems totally possible; I did have a full head of flowing hair back in the day, before kids…before the dark times. But seeing how I am currently working on a bitchin’ comb-over right now, it’s only a matter of time before the coiffure is in order.

Star Wars Despecialized Editions - Custom Bluray Set (Released)
Time

It is true that VLC cannot play commercially available Blu rays, I verified that today with The Hobbit, but in a pinch, it can be used to play the individual files in an iso if there are no other options. Personally, I typically use Powerdvd whenever I want to play a Blu ray, but use VLC for pretty much everything else. However, unfortunately for Bluto, it looks like VLC won’t work for him.

I have had success in using VLC for iso files, but they need to be mounted to a virtual drive first. After the iso is mounted, if you right click to open, go into the bdmv folder, open stream and then right click the largest file(if there is more than one) and click ‘open with VLC’. It works pretty well.

Thanks for the feedback, one69chev.
Have you tried VLC with NJVC’s ISOs, or with some other ISOs? I’d be interested to know if the NJVC ones work for you. I have mounted them virtually in Windows 10, and tried the following:

  • Open the largest m2ts file with VLC - nothing happens. But the other m2ts files (extras) open fine.
  • Open the mounted drive as a Blu-ray disk in VLC. Menu works fine, extras play ok, but the main movie won’t work. The timer zips forward really fast, but there is no video/audio.

Hmm…wierd. I will check it out and see. I am using Windows 7 and have the 25gb versions.

Jedit…so yeah, I picked my 25gb ESB iso, mounted it to virtual drive, clicked the file, in this case #9 and it played with no issues in either audio or video in VLC.

Help: looking for... sorry to ask, but where do I find these fan edits?
Time

Did you read this thread from the beginning? The OP was sent a PM within a few days of his request.

In my experience here, what bothers people the most is when new comers ask previously asked questions without simply reading a few posts to find the info they were searching for. And if it was just a one time thing, people might let it slide, but this happens in virtually every thread related to edits, preservations and etc. The repitive nature of these requests is borderline crazy.

Could this community be a bit nicer to the newbies? Perhaps, but the respect relationship goes both ways and if someone really wants to be a part of this community, I believe they would be welcomed. If a person is just looking to hit and run when they get what they are after, well their stay may not be a pleasant one.

How do I get these?

Shame on you

Why shame on me?

Uhhh. Maybe because the guy in charge of the project, who has spent his personal funds and hours of his time trying to get this project completed just shared that a recent medical procedure left him unable to use one of his arms and the only thing you can contribute is to ask…“how can I get these”. That is just a guess tho…

The original Exorcist movies is one of my favorite movies, but ever since I got my new projector and huge screen and surround I haven’t watched it out of fear. It’s a wonderfully made movie full of magic, but dark magic. I’ll watch any other horror movie on it, but the original Exorcist is such a psychological annihilation that I’m honestly afraid watching it on a huge screen like this might have negative repercussions on me mentally.

I felt exactly the same way about watching The Shining on my big screen. Creeped me right the eff out and after a few minutes I was like…‘nope’…
