What's the difference between the cut and uncut versions of the animated segment?

What is this version better? and if so how is this release better then the 40th Anniversary BD?

Detailed Review about your edition.  ALL 'Exorcist' Blu Rays are the 2010 transfer.  The ONLY difference between yours and the other editions is the third disc with a few new exclusive special features.

I would love to have the new/current Blu-Ray, as is, but changing the ending (epilogue) to match the theatrical. Personally I feel ALL of the extra scenes (and the aggressive sound mix) benefit the film UNTIL the epilogue, where the stuff is a mood killer and just too boring. It's unneeded. 

Are you talking about this release Matt?

I have this but it is still unopened, I want my Son to see it lol, he said nothing is scary and I wanted him to see this classic, also where exactly would you edit the extended back to the Theatrical? this actually could be a very easy edit.

 

If you're not "made of money" you should definitely go for this Region Free version:

What is version better?

That's a good question.  I'm not sure what the differences are with the special features but for me all I really care about are the movies themselves.  The Theatrical and Director's cuts should be the same on both of them.

Edit:   I'm definitely not saying the UK one is better it's just got what I want and for a much lower price.

The problem I always found was, if Vader doesn't mention Leia why does Luke suddenly attack? Ator, a couple of pages back, solved this problem, but I haven't got round to editing it yet. It'll mean reediting the entire battle of Endor... not a particularly appealing thought.

Is it possible to get this theatrical version of Phantom Menace anymore?

If you have a usenet subscription it's still available on alt.binaries.starwars.

Go to www.binsearch.info and search - The Phantom Menace -Theatrical Edition - Adywan [Audio fixed] .    It's 530 days old.

Edit:  I recommend subscribing to 'Usenetserver' because it absolutely rocks.  Apparently other services have serious issues downloading old files.  I've had usenetserver for a long time and rarely have any issues.

Brilliant, thank you! I was starting to fear I'd have to recreate it from scratch.

EDIT: Well, I just found the non-corrupt original .mpg file, because I kept searching my computer for the word sabre and the corrupt version would always come up and thanks to your upload I knew to search for lightsabre instead. I just thought if I looked for sabre +.mpg, anything with lightsabre would automatically come up as well - apparently not. What's even weirder is that when I searched for Luke +.mpg, it hadn't come up either but as soon as I searched for the word lightsabre, it came up instantly.

Why do you insist on spelling 'sabre' the British way?  The American and Star Wars spelling is 'saber'.  Google will back me up on this.  I'm sorry it just bothers me since I've always been a spelling nut.

There was an Alice in Wonderland movie in 1950.  It wasn't Disney though, you must be talking about the animated Disney one from 1951.

Despite the fact that I LOVE the laserdisc format, I must admit that I'd like to use it only when necessary - e.g. when there are no other HD available version... for example, I thought to use the BD for BATB instead of LD, but then I discovered that the BD is messed up... so, I reverted back to LD.

For BTTF, there are some HDTV rips that could be used; LDs could still be used as color references, plus of course for their marvelous soundtracks!

Yes, but like I mentioned above I'm interested in Parts II and III also.  The BDs of these are horrible and the only 'decent' HDTV rips available right now are the uncompressed HDnet versions which aren't really that good.

_,,,^..^,,,_ said:

Well, I didn't realize people was still interested in project with laserdisc as the video source... and I'm happy! (^^,)

About BTTF [ruLes]: who knows, maybe if anybody else is interested... but I should receive the spanish, german and french soundtracks - even if I'm pretty sure someone is more than willing to do it, you know who I'm talking about, right?

I'm very interested.  I hope the project would cover all three movies though. :)

Ok, I must be blind as hell, but I can't find a search button for this forum, much less a "search this thread" button.  So with that said, even a Google search hasn't helped me a ton.  Here's my situation:  I have only Macs and no Blu-Ray burner.  I have downloaded the latest versions of the 3 Despecialized editions.  I can play the SW .mkv version in VLC, but the AVCHD files from ESB and ROTJ don't play in VLC, Quicktime, and won't open in Handbrake, contrary to what I HAVE found.  I really just want to stream the files to one of the half dozen boxes I have hooked up to my TV if possible.  Is there a good post somewhere that explains how to do this?

 

Again, I am very sorry for posting what I am sure is an oft-asked question, but I have spent a couple of hours looking online, and just can't find a good reference for this.

Open the AVCHD.  Go to the BDMV folder.  Open that then open the STREAM folder.  Play the .m2ts file with VLC.  Done.

Is the WOWWOW version available anywhere for one to get and see for themselves?

Rutracker.org has a 20gb uncompressed WOWOW also.  (also has English Audio)

The best analogy I read was someone's tag here, the SE is like having someone run a long scratch down the side of your car with a key. It doesn't affect the performance of even the look of your car all that much, it would equate to less than 1% of the paintwork being changed, but every time you looked at your car it would piss you off, and you couldn't help feeling annoyed and wondering why someone would do that to you.

Have another look below -

All you need to do is crop and resize it with Ripbot264 and then re-encode.

crystal skull is not bad, i've seen far worse. i'm happy that harrison keeps going. one of the last big time movie stars.

The Indiana Jones saga should have ended in 1989.   Crystal Skull shouldn't have been made.  'I've seen far worse',  what a great way to convince someone to watch a movie.

So the digital version of these books has only been out for a few days, and already certain people are ripping it and sending copies of it to each other?! Way to go!

Did it not occur to anyone here that the author might VERY well hang out here sometimes.......? Instead of copying it why not support his work by PAYING for a copy? There's a ton of hard work that has gone into these books, the least we can do here is to support work like this - as we support certain projects here - not copy it as if we were entitled to it. Not like this is a preservation project or something...!

Not cool...

 

I purchased all 3 in hardcover AND I purchased all 3 on Kindle (because I have a kindle). As I don't have an iPhone or an iPad, I'm not purchasing it a 3rd time to get HD files. So get on your high horse somewhere else...

 

Fuck off.

That breaks 3 of the 4 rules that lead to being banned.

Is anyone still seeding the Italian cut of THX-1138?

One seeder at the moment.

I can't wait!  Huge Matrix fan here (first film only).  The test clip looked awesome and now I'll finally be able to see this movie in HD.

There will be no musical numbers.  Neither lapti nek or jedi rocks have a place in this edit.

Excellent.

Yes, a 1080p edit of ROTJ would be great.  I'd like to see some of the deleted scenes added to it like Daneditor's Radical edit.  I would like it to still be conservative though like you were saying.  Another thing I really liked about Daneditor's Radical version is that he moved the Yoda scene close to the beginning which worked out really well.  (Spence did that too, I think)

It would also be good if you could despecialize the whole thing and have it color corrected.

 

 

But I may try to add in Luke building his lightsaber if I can find a good place for it.

 

Yes, that would be great, that's by far the best deleted scene.  As far as despecializing goes I hope you won't include the 'Jedi Rocks' sequence that's my least favorite S.E. change of the OT.

I find it ironic that someone who likes a band called The Strokes asked me if I freak out much, LOL.

Whatever, bottom line is you did freak out and btw the Strokes are awesome you should check them out.
