I've done a 6-disc boxset dvd cover - though have run out of ideas for a front cover. Preferably something that fits in with most of the 6 films.

It is an inksaver cover - with thanks to Fritzdog, Gundrosen and Rikter - whose previous sets I've mercilessy ripped off

Any ideas, suggestions and criticisms are MOST welcome.

(the blue vertical lines on the spine of the cover are from the dvd template and will be removed)

though 1st one to say 'give up doing covers' will feel my wraith...

^ Ditto for what Dark_Jedi said - a six disc boxset cover would go down very well with these intriguing Edits.

Top job ADM

Caster - I think Magnolia has answered some questions in his own thread - though not all - it is kind of fun to watch it for the 1st time, then on the 2nd and 3rd try to figure out how he acheived the changes he did.

Great thing with the MagnoliaFan Edits is that there are always surprises the 1st few times you watch them...

The Amazing Claude...

It was opening night at the Orpheum and The Amazing Claude was topping the bill. Hundreds of people came from miles around to see the famed hypnotist do his stuff.

As Claude took to the stage, he announced, "Unlike most stage hypnotists who invite two or three people up onto the stage to be put into a trance, I intend to hypnotize each and every member of this audience."

The excitement was almost electric as Claude withdrew a beautiful antique pocket watch from his coat.

"I want you each to keep your eye on this antique watch. It's a very special watch. It's been in my family for six generations." He began to swing the watch gently back and forth while quietly chanting, "Watch the watch, watch the watch, watch the watch . . ."

The crowd became mesmerised as the watch swayed back and forth, light gleaming off its polished surface. Hundreds of pairs of eyes followed the swaying watch, until suddenly it slipped from the hypnotist's fingers and fell to the floor, breaking into a hundred pieces.

"Shit!" said the hypnotist.

It took three weeks to clean up the theatre

ric - I'd laugh m8, but what what we get in the media about Brazil that seems about right

One day when the teacher walked to the black board, she noticed someone had written the word 'penis' in tiny letters. She turned around, scanned the class looking for the guilty face. Finding none, she quickly erased it, and began her class.

The next day she went into the room, and she saw, in larger letters, the word 'penis' again on the black board. Again, she looked around in vain for the culprit, but found none, so she proceeded with the day's lesson.

Every morning, for about a week, she went into the classroom and found the same disgusting word written on the board, each day's word, larger than the previous day's word.

Finally, one day, she walked in, expecting to be greeted by the same word on the board, but instead, found the words:

"The more you rub it, the bigger it gets!"

The world explained through cows - yes, COWS...

TRADITIONAL CAPITALISM:
You have two cows. You sell one and buy a bull. Your herd
multiplies, and the economy grows. You sell the herd and retire on
the income.

AN AMERICAN CORPORATION
You have two cows. You sell one, and force the other to produce the
milk of four cows. You are surprised when the cow drops dead.

FRENCH CORPORATION
You have two cows. You go on strike because you want three cows.

A JAPANESE CORPORATION
You have two cows. You re-design them so they are one-tenth the size
of an ordinary cow and produce twenty times the milk.
You then create irritating cow cartoon images called Cowkimon and
market them world-wide at a fantastic profit.

A GERMAN CORPORATION
You have two cows. You re-engineer them so they live for 100
years, eat once a month, and milk themselves.

ENGLISH CORPORATION
You have two cows. Both are mad.

AN ITALIAN CORPORATION

You have two cows, but you don't know where
they are. You break for lunch.

A RUSSIAN CORPORATION
You have two cows. You count them and learn you have five cows. You
count them again and learn you have 42 cows. You count them again
and learn you have 12 cows.

You stop counting cows and open another bottle of vodka.

A SWISS CORPORATION
You have 5000 cows, none of which belong to you.
You charge others for storing them.

A HINDU CORPORATION
You have two cows. You worship them.

CHINESE CORPORATION
You have two cows. You have 300 people milking them.
You claim full employment, high bovine productivity, and arrest the
newsman who reported the numbers.

A WELSH CORPORATION
You have two cows. The younger one is rather attractive

AN AUSTRALIAN CORPORATION
Western suburbs style....
You have 2 stolen bulls but think they are cows you die the first
time you try and milk them.

AN IRISH CORPORATION
Who cares, The EU really owns them now and the pub is still serving.

NEW ZEALAND CORPORATION
You have two cows. You don't know what they are used for as they
aren't sheep. You shag them anyway.

I think we're thinking about official LFL DVDs. If we're talking about DVD-Rs, I already have a set that is to my preference thanks to DigitalFreakNYC. Came from the Def. Ed. LDs. Great stuff.

DigitalFreakNYC eh? me too - in the times before Rikter, DigiFreak was the only one who would send the OT dvdrs (mine was the anamorphic set, that became known as the Dr Gonzo) to the UK, or Europe, or pretty much anywhere on the planet. A Top Man.

Most intriguing quotes from Lucas - I hope he decides to release them soon - though I imagine he has SW releases planned for some time to come, along with the new 3-D versions he was talking about not long ago.

Even if he does do a botched job of releasing the OOT on dvd - there are enough talented and determined people on this board to enhance them to what we all know, love and want.

"Beam me up, Scotty"

or something by R2D2 - you really cannot fault his acting or delivery, and he had no knowledge that he was going to be CGI'd with rocket boosters during the PT. Very underrated...

I'd have to go for 'I AM a Jedi, like my father before me'

30minutes a session, twice a week at the local community centre. 20% discount for students and OAPs

I imagine the EU addresses this when it comes to Luke training others to become Jedi, though I would not thought the training would be as long as it was for Jedi in the Prequel Trilogy.

"We've just heard from our sources that Universal is going to be announcing the release of Battlestar Galactica: The Complete First Season very soon. This is Ron Moore's new SciFi Channel version, FYI, which is already available on DVD in the U.K. (the series' second season debuts here in the States on The SciFi Channel on 7/15, followed by the U.K. debut in October on Sky One). We'll post all the official details as soon as they're available. Rest assured you won't have long to wait."

Some Trek USA dvd release info (from the DigitalBits website):-

"And for you Star Trek fans, look for the 2-disc Star Trek: Nemesis - Special Collector's Edition on 10/4. As many of you know, Star Trek: Enterprise - The Complete Second Season is currently due on 7/26. Star Trek: Enterprise - The Complete Third Season is officially slated for 9/20 (that's confirmed). Rounding out the series' release, Star Trek: Enterprise - The Complete Fourth Season should arrive on 11/1. Also... and this is something of a surprise... our sources are currently telling us that Star Trek: The Complete Animated Series is tentatively planned for DVD release in September (on 9/6). There will also be a new Star Trek: The Motion Pictures DVD Collection box set on 10/4, along with a 4-season Star Trek: Enterprise - The Complete Series set on 11/1."

The most enjoyable film I've seen for a long time - easily the best Batman film so far - the acting, story, dialogue, direction, pace and feel were all superb - and I hope they do a sequel up to the standard of this one.

Was surprisd by how many famous faces they got for this, and well they ALL did. Will be eagerly awaiting this for dvd.
