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.

I would go with the 1997 SE mix (some forum members recently released the theatrical DTS version) rather then the Bluray/DVD mix. The 97 mix is a solid remix, but the 2004 mix sounds rather awful. It's all muffled and dynamically compressed, with a droning bass sound.

Do you know anywhere where I might be able to get the 1997 versions of the films, so I can check out what new scenes were included at that point? The image quality isn´t important so it could be a tvrip or vhs no problem.

On usenet (binsearch.info) search for 'lee thorogood'.   Scroll down to his 1997 dvds.  Myspleen might have some broadcast versions still available.

Guys, what's the exact filesize of the CORRECTED v2.5 MKV file?

Wait. There's a corrected one??? Shit.

The current one I have is 19,216,809,124 bytes. What is wrong with it, and what was the fix?

Does this mean I have to download it all over again? Is the corrected one on MySpleen, with no duplicates running around? That means I will have to shut things down at TPB and KickAss Torrents.

Please somebody let me know what's up.

Freak out much?

BuddhaMaster said:

 

uhm there is no seeding part on myspleen? 0/0

I'm happily willing to

 

Ummm.... WTF? Seriously?  There's 7 seeds at the moment.

I really like the editions you've made but there's a couple of things I'd like you to consider.   The changes you made to ROTJ I like but I can't stand the Special Edition Sarlacc; I'm sure many here would agree.

Most importantly,  I think your color correction might be off on all three.   You_Too, Adywan, and Harmy (members of this forum) are exceptional at color correction of the movies and maybe they could help you out.  Granted I would rather have basic correction on them than have it like the Green shifted Star Wars DE 2.5.

Edit:  I'll watch them again and see if I can find anything else you can improve upon.

OK just to let you guys know for sure, we have confirmed that once Fright Night Part II is finished we are going to author up Star Wars 77 and A New Hope 97 SE, so not to much longer now, FN2 might be done as early as next week sometime, fingers crossed.

Awesome,  Fright Night Part II is finished the wait should almost be over.

I have requested a myspleen invite many times over the years but never received one. So usenet will be my only hope and I know I'm not alone. I'm patient and sure it will show up over the next few weeks. Huge Thanks in advance to the future usenet poster.

It is currently upping to usenet.

Thanks - but which group? Can't see it in a.b.starwars.

I was wondering the same thing.  I also tried general usenet search engines but to no avail.

I'd only be interested if there was also some way to obtain the International cuts of the good Superman movies. (I-III)

No, "creation of 1:1 copies of any unprotected BD media" means that Nero allows you to copy unprotected BDs, not to CREATE unprotected BDs. At least that's how I understood it. Nero ALWAYS reencoded the video. which is the reason why I stopped using it ages ago.

 

Correct Nero always reencodes. IMHO it's crapware.

It's possible the authors of MultiAVCHD could be contacted about the limitation as to number of audios ?

Thank you very much Ady,but was curious,where can 1 find the opening crawls to all films in HD but in English,would very much like to swap that part out.

Thanks again for the heads up.

Just use binsearch to search for "star wars 1080p hv"

 

The hv versions are still available on usenet.  How does the quality compare to the German versions?

Yeah but what if I don't know how to torrent?

You've got to start somewhere, just like the rest of us.  But really it's simple after you've downloaded Utorrent and chosen your preferences you're basically off and running.

DominicCobb said:

Hate to be a noob, but I didn't get the chance to download this one before tehparadox went down. So how do I download now?

spleen or tpb

I'm getting the error "Some tracks not recognized" in tsmuxergui.  The h.264 video appears along with the three AC3 tracks I chose.  It should also show the three DTS MA tracks from my final mkv.  Any help getting tsmuxergui to recognize DTS MA tracks would be appreciated.

Edit:   I figured it out.  All I had to do is get the latest version of mkvtoolnix.  The one I used before was 3 years old and apparently combined with the DTS MA tracks didn't jive with tsmuxer.

Anyone else who would like the Halloween Criterion audio from dark_jedi, please pm me.

The file is w64 wav file  zipped with 7z but you should be able to open it with winrar.

Does it sync with the original (2007) BD also?
