Harmy correct me if I'm wrong but I would guess the jabba scene is the color corrected blu-ray with Team Blu's jabba matted on top of the newer jabba

 Look at post #28 and #29 on page 2.

Ok, so I've been busily searching Usenet and the Spleen for copies or preservations of the original full screen pan and scan of the trilogy. I have already added Starkiller's 1982 Video Rental to my collection. What I am wondering is if there are similar transfers of Empire and ROTJ available. I guess what I am after is something akin to what I experienced growing up watching them for the first time. Anyone care to point me in the right direction for Empire and ROTJ? Many thanks!

Try "Dark_Jedi Full Screen LaserDisc" at your favorite usenet search engine

 Which, if I'm not mistaken, will have to be www.binsearch.info.  (Just checked and they are all there, btw)

Is there a free program that can convert MKV over to an AVCHD?  I can't watch that great-looking Back to the Future DCP because the bitrate is too high for my computer to play smoothly.  I know I'd be sacrificing some quality, but I'm sure it will still look amazing as an AVCHD.

Sleepy Hollow (1999)

Very entertaining movie.  I've loved it since the first time I saw it in the theater.  I can't see how anyone wouldn't enjoy it unless they just can't get past the fact that Washington Irving probably wouldn't approve.

Please, can someone who somehow got the passwords PM it to me?  Thanks.

Did you even look at my post this morning?

http://originaltrilogy.com/forum/topic.cfm/Star-Wars-OT-1997-Special-Edition-Info/post/703339/#TopicPost703339

 Yes, I saw that earlier.  I didn't realize that they were in that post.

Please, can someone who somehow got the passwords PM it to me?  Thanks.

Why don't we put a search box in the corner that just does that?

 Just do it like me.  Create a OT.com Search Bookmark in your browser.  Problem solved.

Edit:  Oh, and use what Tobar said above.

There's a thread on here where someone is an admin or something on myspleen, and they're giving out invites to all Originaltrilogy members.

There are scenes that are exclusive to the theatrical which I like.  That is enough reason IMO for a preservation.

It's been up on the 'spleen for two months.  There's currently 19 seeds right now.

All I remember is the extremely popular soundtrack with the hip-hop and rock/metal collaborations:

As far as on-topic goes, I checked Rutracker and Usenet and I couldn't find anything.

I'm having a hard time streaming the video.  Maybe too many people are watching at once?  Seems good so far though, w hat little I've managed to see :)

 Download it with Jdownloader2.  Right-click on the link and select copy or copy location.  It will then appear in JD2 and you should be good to go.

Uploaded a few weeks ago on TPB:


The Beatles - Let It Be (Deluxe 35mm Widescreen)

3.46 GB

The only apparent downside, from the comments, is that it only has a mono track.

Tack said:

If only Reegar were here...

Good news, though. I'll support this.

 Definitely.  There aren't enough edits of ROTJ. (especially HD ones)  I'm hoping this one will have some similarities to Daneditor's edits because his edits are awesome.

So, I'm done with the 25gb BD for the JSC trilogy. I've tested it on the PS3 slim for the last week and everything works as it should.  What's the best delivery format?  BDMV folder or ISO?

 BDMV folder.  If you have a BD burner you can easily burn it with imgburn.  If you don't have a BD burner you can quickly convert the BDMV folder to AVCHD ,etc; without having to extract the files from the iso.  I'm not sure if there is any freeware out there for extracting iso's so I definitely think a BDMV folder would be the best way to go to accommodate both those with and without a BD burner.

Where are the MKV's available?

Now I just need to figure out a way to shrink the file slightly without compromising quality too much.

Jokes aside, what about Gump makes you loathe it so much?

Zemekis is a hack director and has no respect for his fans.

 You must think Back to the Future is a fluke then.  It's spelled Zemeckis, by the way.

sonofjones said:

 and how long after ESB:R is done can we expect it/them?

 I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that they'll probably be released when they're done.

bkev said:

Well.... I guess it isn't a phobia as much as an extreme distaste, but whenever the protagonist of a film gets wrongfully blamed for something he didn't do - and you have to watch the repercussions play out - I get incredibly uncomfortable.  If it's some sort of exposition that happened before the film takes place, however, I'm okay with it.

 What do you think of 'Shawshank Redemption' then?

I'd definitely like to check it out.

Possessed said:

Hmm, perhaps but the bluray has overall better quality even with the tint, seems like it would be more productive to just remove the tint.  And like I said, once Emansfans version with complete color correction and film grain and some of the cg manipulated to look more like models (if you aren't following his thread, you should be) it will be the version I make a V2 with.

 It would be great if you removed the tint.  I think for me it really is bothersome because I was so used to the pre-BD color timing.

What do you think of using the HDTV version instead of the Blu Ray? (Like using WookieGroomer's excellent version)  The Blu Ray has that awful green tint throughout but the HDTV doesn't.

I agree it's dcp - wowow - canal+ - HD Net -DVD - LD - VHS - being poked in the eyes - BD in that order

 Okay, so at the moment we have available in HD(not including BD):

Part I - DCP, WOWOW, and HDNet

Part II - Canal+ and HDNet

Part III - HDNet

It's not looking good for Part III.  Does anyone know if the WOWOW or Canal+ is available for it?  (PM me if you happen to have a copy of one of these)
