hi the vhs TPM bootleg is close to the "z" boot but much darker and with *2 timecodes* witch matched the running time, the timecodes were at the top like the backstroke to the west avi file in white text in the black bars one idea was that the source tape was being camcorded as the tape was playing in a vhs via a tv, may be true likly not as the tape was binned/returned/recorded over

there was no z in the corner though

The PS1 Spider-Man game was great, but you HAVE to play Spider-Man 2. They nailed it, and then forgot what made it cool.

ironicly i think the ps1 spiderman was more fun then spiderman 1 and 2 because it felt like an adaptaion of the 90s animated series to me which was in syndication at the time.

havent played it since

[REQUEST] Star Wars John Alvin DVD covers...

Does anyone have some *really* high quality versions of the John Alvin poster art from ANH/ESB/ROTJ, preferably without any logos and stuff.

EDIT: I'm talking about these in case anyone wonders:

I have reasonably high quality versions of these, but the colours aren't as good and they're missing the top part. Even though the top part is mostly sky it's where the titles belong otherwise I'd have to put them over the faces :(

EDIT: Does anyone perhaps know if/where I could buy these as posters?


id LOVE a high res copy of these posters then the ones satnika posted as these have the top bit

hi great tread

waaaaay back in 1999 my dad somehow got a VHS bootleg of TPM and it sucked it was a piss poor cam job with blurry video worse audio and *possible* sections of the movie missing but it was so long ago ive probably forgotten but it didnt have the "z" in picture just a timecode on the top possibly the camcorders

after how bad it was another bootleg was lent to my dad from a friend who worked at decipher who made the 1990s star wars card game. which came in a jewel case on 1 or 2 cds *possibly VCD* which was in infinite improvement on the prevoius bootleg. it may have been the "z" version

after the cd set was lent back to the friend i got the offical vhs afterwards

fast forward to 2005 and me and my frend tom watched a bootleg dvd of episode 3 which didnt have the backstroke subtitles instead it had a timecode and sections missing including r2d2 falling upside down in the hanger and had artifacts all the time especially pronounced in fast motion

hope this is of some use
