I would also very much like a link, if that is still possible. The torrent seems to be dead.

Hello! Would it be possible for me to get a copy of the unpaired pilot? I have a low quality copy of the re-released “original” pilot, with scenes from the rest of the series edited in, but I would really like to get my hands on the original rough cut if possible.

So… here we are… 2021…

Let me start off saying I’m so happy to see forums like this get updates, no matter how sporadic. It really proves that this fandom isn’t just a quirky little gang of fantasy geeks- It’s a goddamn community!!! And decades later, we’re still kicking!!! ❤️

I could go on, but alas I find myself on a quest- yes, the same quest many of you have found yourselves on.

Is there any hope of getting a copy?? Am I wasting my misspent youth on a perilous & ultimately doomed venture??

Perhaps. But I refuse to give up, I refuse to settle, I refuse to believe this cannot be obtained!

Any help would be so very appreciated. And failing that, some companions in commiseration.

PM sent.

As previously mentioned in this thread…

It’s not some rare unicorn that requires someone’s grandparents finding a copy. It’s STILL available on the torrent site I previously mentioned (re-encoded from DVD to x264 with some minor clean up). It contains temp music, temp/missing/incomplete fx, blue/green screens and even cards for missing shots.

It looks like this:

There is also the TV movie version that incorporates previously unused footage from the rough cut. These scenes were finished and added along with new material and scenes culled from the rest of the season. The recycled scenes from the series largely consist of flashbacks.

Terrance Mann, who was hired to play Bob after the original pilot was completed, returned to provide a new voice for Bob the Skull.

Because of these changes, it does not fit in continuity with the rest of the series and acts as a stand alone “Storm Front” movie.

Bob now looks like this:

For those interested, just ask.

I am pretty much interested in every cut of the pilot there is, from both a filmmaking standpoint and as a hardcore fan of the books.
