Project Index: Star Wars Preservations <em>(last update 29th Oct '17)</em>
Time

^ I look forward to that day mate 😃

It would seem this is our best hope so far for a 4K unaltered Original Trilogy release?:-

poita’s ‘The Original Trilogy restored from 35mm prints’ - ongoing project - donations welcome…

 


 

massive thanks to ‘none’ for bumping the thread below - some great work here by ‘none’ and Treadwell:-

Treadwell Collection - link

^ - ‘Prior to the digital days, Star Wars media collecting took place in the home recording VHS medium. Many thanks go out to TREADWELL who took the time and energy to preserve these Star Wars memories. From specials, commercials, interviews, to news reports and more, these tapes provide view points of the evolution of the Star Wars phenomenon.’ - none.

But what if you want to preserve the the surprise of the crawl?

Order:

  1. Watch Crawl from ANH
  2. Hold up hand made title card that says “but first” or “24 hours earlier…”
  3. Watch Rogue One
  4. Resume ANH
  5. Profit

I prefer watching this crawl just before watching Rogue One… (only really helps if you have already seen Star Wars (1977))

though yours works too - and has the added bonus of watching Star Wars too afterwards 😃

STAR WARS: EP VI -RETURN OF THE JEDI &quot;REVISITED EDITION&quot;<strong>ADYWAN</strong> - ** PRODUCTION HAS NOW RESTARTED **
Time

On the face of this… it seems a very kind and noble gesture to aid the funding of ROTJ:R - though we obviously have some concerns that this may not be legit.
 

We are asking around to get some info - for now - please do not send copies of paypal receipts.

Hopefully this turns out to be legit - though we are sure ‘1000 Challenge’ understands why we have to be a little careful…
 

Edit - this kind offer by 1,000 Challenge is indeed legit. (thank you Ady & doubleofive for the info)

Please read the this post by 1,000 Challenge - http://originaltrilogy.com/post/id/1126679 - and hope many members can donate some funds 😃

SW Trilogy Arcade emulation - promising development
Time

Did they ever fix/change the colour of Vader’s lightsabre in this?

In the lightsabre battle with Vader is was a real pain to see how we was attacking you (the last time I played this the sabre was black) - which on the black background of the Death Star made it very difficult to play)

 

Really enjoyable game though - those lads did a lot of quality work to get it as good as they did 😃
 

Edit - it seems from this top video below - they did indeed change the sabre colour to red 😃 I may have to give this another play…

Quality beat and feel that 😃

 

Electric Youth - “A Real Hero”

I think I could easily get into Electric Youth - a nice flashback to good old 80’s, the girl can sing, they have a great sound, with a good 80’s style visuals too in a few videos too 😃

I hope a good night’s sleep has resulted in a fresh approach to each other today.
 

No more name calling, no more baiting, no more antagonizing, no more posting along the lines of ‘Seriously, I am starting to daydream about ripping the throats of any one of you right out of your neck for treating me this way…’
 

If there is a problem - please report it to a moderator - thank you.

NJVC Custom Blu-ray Set of Harmy’s Despecialized Editions now available on Mega
Time

Just a reminder that there are alternatives to using discs out there (buying the various materials - discs, quality paper, cases, burning the discs - and coasters, printing with all that expensive ink - the mistakes etc)…

The humble USB flash drive may be an option - a fair few blu ray players have a USB port, and more people have a computer next to or near their tv these days…

housed in a nice box or case - or just left on a shelf next to the dvd / blu ray collection - with more alternatives in here:-

Not sure if this funny or sadistic 😕

Alright, someone else’s turn now 😉

Man… if that was real… that’s quite funny now - but if that were one of us at the time I’d have been livid, would have ruined the night and even if they’d have watched the film later that night they would have been unlikely to enjoy or immerse themselves in it. Hope those pranksters had some good security… 😃
