Nice find - though a little steep for my budget (the decimal point would need to move 2 places to the left 😉)

Out of interest are there adapters for it to get it to play in the UK/Europe? Or does the unit itself have to modded?

Cool - I really hope he enjoys them 😃

I purchased the ‘Faces’ Trilogy vhs boxset not long ago on ebay - bought for pennies and is in great condition too - my nieces and nephews look at me with some bewilderment when I take out this strange looking box called a ‘tape’ and enter it into a monster of a machine called a ‘video player’ 😉

The Count is wise…

and this, of the same title, wasn’t bad either (though not as much counting) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGitfyUGvFA

Brilliant that 😃

Could you all please refrain from posting/replying in the quote block?

Thank you.

To The Count!

I hope you are well wherever you may well be 'ole comrade 😄

I was thinking recently about how confusing it would be to try and learn how to drive on the left side of the road if I ever moved to Britain. I’ll never move there so it doesn’t really matter, but I doubt I’d ever get the hang of it if I did.

😄

If you see someone struggling in a rental car - slowly turning or stopping to make a turn when probably not necessary to do so near a holiday resort - it’ll likely be a Brit!

My family had no end of slowing down and ‘making sure’ they were ‘driving correctly’ when on holiday in the US. And most in of Europe too 😃

Technically, discussing Duracell’s random thought isn’t off topic. I’ve got nothing else to say about it though so I’ll leave it be.

You must have missed this part - ‘I suggest we move on from Duracell’s mis-post’.

Knock this bickering off.

The next poster to make a snipe or snarky comment will likely get a couple of days off.

I suggest we move on from Duracell’s mis-post - and get the thread back on topic.

Thank you.

Well that’s true, but in this case I think it would fall under misinterpretation by the reader rather than accidentally racist. The main reason it needed to be deleted by a mod was because it was a picture of sexually active cats. No one wants to see that.

The text in the post was very clear - though it was not what Duracell was meant to actually post (confirmed in his latter post for clarity).

The picture of two cats at it is somewhat incidental and secondary to the text - though I agree in that no-one needs to see that.

Hence the deletion of the picture and editing of the text in his mis-post.

How much longer until the next versions of the Despecialized Trilogy are finished?

I believe this is the most recent post from Harmy on the matter - http://originaltrilogy.com/post/id/1098196

The man has obviously been busy, he may wish to have a break, do others things, or get straight back into it.

Whatever he does choose to do - those ‘next versions’ will likely take some time.

Try and stay patient Editroid - we already have some superb versions of DeSpecialised, 2 AdyWan Edits & ROTJ being worked on, a whole host of Star Wars fan edits - including those for the new films. As well as a few more Star Wars films (& books and games etc) coming out soon too.

With the foot in mouth bug that’s been going around here lately, you could have gotten a temp ban.

Really, without a warning? It’s Duracell, he was obviously just being weird, not racist.

Unfortunately, the original post came across as just that (racist) - though thankfully was just a misunderstanding/mis-post as confirmed from Duracell’s later explanation.

As a general request to everyone - please be careful when posting - and read through how it may appear to other posters when they read it - before hitting that ‘Submit your reply’ button.

Thank you.

Very cool - and top choice of artwork for them as well 😃

If I were to be hyper-criticial I think the ‘Despecialised Edtion’ text is a little too much to the right in not lining up with the white text box on the Empire Strikes Back poster - but that’s the likely just the OCD in me 😉
 

Sweet work - you should think about posting them in one of the Harmy Despecialised Edition threads in the ‘Star Wars Preservations and Other Fan Projects’ section to give them a little more exposure.

Good folk - please lay off using words like ‘dick’ when criticising or critiquing fellow members.

You may need to go see your doctor about that mate 😉

What about when referring to Trump or the nut in N. Korea?

I’d go with following the rules and guidelines of the site and any that the OP has specified for the thread.

You just confirmed that they’re members here!

I thought everyone knew!

It’d likely be also helpful to put it into context why such a descriptive word is being used too (though, granted, at times this can be obvious with the likes of the two individuals mentioned above - and a few other politicians around the world as well).

I understood when the other mod already told me, thanks.

I hadn’t seen that - doh!

Though think of it as a general request/reminder to the others on here 😉

Good folk - please lay off using words like ‘dick’ when criticising or critiquing fellow members.

Stating that they you may not have got on, or they pissed you off is somewhat ok - but leave the other insults off the site please - thank you.

So does anyone know how to post pics side by side?

I don’t think there is currently a code for posting 2 picture side by side on here (though happy to be proved wrong - and like Wook says - if there is one out there please link to it 😃)

You may find it easier to use a program like MS Paint to create a new image - then post the 2 images you wish to use and place them side-by-side and then save that image. You can then upload that newly created image to a photo sharing site (imgur for example - quick, free and easy to use etc) - and then link to it on here.
 

Alternatively feel free to PM me the 2 images and I’ll knock up a side-by-side image for you.

True…but in this case, is the spelling variant actually used in the movie title?

I completely forgot about this…

Man, seeing some old names from too long ago brings back a smile to the face 😃
