I torrented Team Negative1’s Silver Screen Edition of Star Wars, but I accidentally got the .iso torrent, not the .mkv torrent. I don’t want to download the whole .mkv version as well, but I also don’t want to burn it onto a disc either, so can someone please help me figure out how to use the .iso files without burning them to a disc?
EDIT: Problem solved by PM with another user.
Ahem.

Huh. Sorry, I didn’t see it. There’s no search function on this website.
LOL! My PM hasn’t been answered, you must be talking to someone else!
That’s strange. I got one from someone else with a link to the SSE on Mega, but that’s the only one that showed up. I only have one PM on my page.
Thanks so much! I look forward to watching that! Now just to wait forever for it to download lol
Welcome to the originaltrilogy.com College Football Discussion Thread!
I know I can’t be the only one here who follows college football.
Here’s your place to talk about all of it. Your team, how they did this year, meet other fans, talk about the playoffs, who’s going to win (Alabama), discuss which is the best conference (SEC), vent about poor performances from your team, etc. Just don’t let banter between rival fans escalate too much. It’s happened to me before (looking at you, Florida fans LOL) so don’t be too disrespectful. But feel free to rip on their team all you want.
So if I were interested in finding the Silver Screen Edition of Star Wars by Team Negative1, where could I get it?
A grindhouse is an old movie theater. The Grindhouse versions of the original trilogy are restorations of original theatrical film reels shown in 1977, 1980, and 1983.
Ok, I think I understand. Thanks for clarifying!
I think I understand about the sync thing. It’s synced to GOUT, but not to, say, the 2004 DVD because of additional scenes like the Jabba scene, which would throw off the whole thing. Sound effects and takes of lines are different according to the track, but it would still line up with when they happen in the movie. Is that right?
Wow, thank y’all so much for the responses.
Star Wars in 1977 had three different soundtracks (6-channel, stereo, and mono), which had different content (although the 6-channel and stereo were very, very similar).
I’ve seen some comparisons of the stereo and mono before. Do you know exactly what the differences between the 6-channel and the stereo were?
Empire had three original mixes, the 35mm stereo, the 16mm mono, and the 70mm 6-channel. The 70mm version was a different video cut, and we don’t have a good preservation of that (there’s an 8mm digest which has bits of it, if you want your mind blown).
Do you know which versions (official home release or fan preservation) use each TESB mix? I’m inclined to believe the Grindhouse would use the 35mm stereo, insofar as it also uses the 35mm video. Assuming the 70mm 6-channel audio is lost along with the video, is there a good place to find the 16mm mono track?
I’m sorry, I’m still a little confused. If a fan preservation audio is synced to the GOUT discs, does that mean that the audio is the same as on the GOUT bonus discs?
And Harmy’s track muxing into the Silver Screen Edition is basically just saying that the audio tracks from Harmy’s Despecialized Editions would also be accurate to use with the video from the Silver Screen Editions?
Thanks so much for the suggestions! I do have one question…
One point of interest though, any fan preservation here that was synced to
the “GOUT” discs will be able to use the same audio tracks. In other words
the DTS sound track from Harmys 2.7 would “mux” into the TN1 Star Wars.
Could you clarify what exactly this means? Like what is GOUT, what do you mean by “synced to”, what is DTS, what is mux?

Hello there, forum dwellers. I’m the new guy in town. I’ve been reading through some forum posts about the various different edits and preservations people here have made of the Star Wars movies, and I must say this is fantastic. Y’all (<— excuse a Southern boy) have really done some great work getting around old Mr. Lucas’s obstinate refusal to release these movies the way they were seen in their original forms. With that in mind, I’ve seen many projects for each different movie, and I was wondering if y’all could help me out with something.
Can y’all help me find the best theatrical version of each movie? I don’t care if it’s a cam bootleg or a cleaned-up, color corrected visual masterpiece. I just want to see it how people first saw it. I’ll also need you to tell me which website I can find it on. I know there’s a stigma about linking to torrents here, and I understand because it could get the site in trouble.
I’ll put what I’ve figured out so far about each movie in further detail below. Feel free to correct, add on, or offer your opinion about which version is the best.
EPISODE IV
I know there’s Team Negative1’s Silver Screen Edition and Harmy’s Despecialized. I have heard before that the Silver Screen Edition is the most accurate because it literally is a scan of a 35mm film reel that was shown in theaters in 1977. Can someone shed some light on the differences for me? I’ve also heard that there’s some disparity between different audio mixes that were used in theaters during the original run. I know literally nothing about audio mixing, so without being too complicated, can you explain the differences in lines and sound effects?
EPISODE V
I know that there are two versions of the theatrical release. The 70mm was used for the premiere in select theaters across the country, and the 35mm was later completed and sent out for the second wave of showings. I have heard that Negative1’s Grindhouse edition uses a 35mm reel, and I assume it also uses the 35mm’s theatrical audio mix. Is there a way to obtain the 70mm version? I know it contains substantial differences in both video and audio.
EPISODE VI
I don’t know much about the theatrical version of Return of the Jedi. I’ve seen the 2006 Bonus DVD “Theatrical Version”, but apparently that’s not the real theatrical version. I think Harmy made a Grindhouse version for it, but I don’t know if the source he used was one of several different theatrical releases, like with The Empire Strikes Back.
EPISODE I
This is where I get a little fuzzy. I want to say Adywan made a theatrical version, but I’m not sure. I do know there are some changes in the 2004 DVDs (we won’t discuss the adulterations of the 2011 BDs), but I’m not sure if they’ve been found and preserved.
EPISODE II
I know that there were a few different theatrical versions: the 35mm, the DLP (digital), and the IMAX. From what I understand, the IMAX had no additions but was simply cut for time, so I’m not concerned with it. I think the digital version is identical to the DVD. I know Centropy (which, from my understanding, was a bootleg group that got shut down by the FBI in 2005) made a cam release of the 35mm in 2002 containing Padme’s different lines, the extra speeders in the background of the Coruscant chase scene, and the alternate mechanical hand shot, among other minor differences.
EPISODE III
I haven’t heard anything about alterations from the theatrical version to the DVD, other than an optical wipe during the Mustafar scene that was changed to a straight cut in the DVD and restored in the Blu-ray.
EPISODE VII
I’ve heard a little about the credits being extended with alternate music, the First Order spy at Maz’s bar whispering audibly instead of silently, and BB-8 chirping during his closeup shot while Rey, Finn, and BB-8 are escaping from Niima Outpost. Is this correct, and if so, is there a version containing those changes that is on the Internet?
ROGUE ONE
Nothing. Is it too early to discuss this yet? LOL
So that’s what I know. Which is the best, most accurate theatrical version of each movie, and where can I find it? Thank y’all. Sorry for the wall of text.
