RE: Jeff Goldblum song -- I just realized that all Goldblum's movie acting is just playing himself! I wonder if I could get some of that action? Uh, Mr. Harryhausen ... can we talk?

You think I can help?

Jeff Goldblum sings his own Jurassic Park theme : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9ZwGrxsBOk

I still have your cool artwork for it though.

It was not able to be presented as I wanted it to be so I haven't released it yet.

What happened to that Alien DVHS transfer?

Flash Sale The Criterion Collection: "All in-stock Blu-rays and DVDs are 50% off SRP with promo code COOP". I hope that's a bargain.

US and Canadian friends, Criterion sale is on for another 20 hours or so! https://www.criterion.com/sale

As I consider that possibility, I'd like some help in identifying the type of transition used for each of the credits slides in this clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCAp0hHq_qw

I might expand my Robotech: The Movie restoration project into something bigger: specifically, The Definitive Robotech.

And, speaking of PKD, there's this enlightening broadcast/article: "A Mind Cubed" http://www.groundzeromedia.org/a-mind-cubed/ "During a Science Fiction Convention I was one a panel member in where the topic discussed was about whether or not Science fiction writers are actually prophets. ... my affirmative views on the subject matter [was] by using Philip K. Dick as a legendary mind that has written some insightful commentary in the past that we now are seeing transpire in our present world."

Lucky you, Bronzie! That happens to be the 21st and final Flight 666 to HEL on a Friday the 13th!

I'm not gonna take this standing up ('cause it's a pain for bronzed titans to sit down)! I've booked a flight to their headquarters in Helsinki! Let's see now ... the ticket reads ... "Nordic Airline Fin-Air, 13th hour, today (Friday, the 13th), to HEL (short-code for Helsinki), flight 666". Okay, I'm set to get to the bottom of this. https://omnystudio.com/d/clips/dae91041-.../audio.mp3 [start at 28:53]

Hmmm ... Friday the 13th. Now that sounds familiar. Friday the 13th, Friday the 13th. ... Doh! This DOES have something to do with FanRes! I've been punked!

* And now for something completely different * ... This has absolutely, positively has NOTHING TO DO with FanRes AT ALL ... !! happy FRIDAY THE 13TH !!

(Full disclosure: I'm not a big fan of drugs myself. I just can't believe an entire discography/filmography/what-have-you was censored on account of one meth bust. Just goes to show Japan's second only to the Philippines in how severely they punish anyone who touches them drogas...)

See, just a few months ago the Pikachu and Pichu short made its high definition debut in Australia after waiting several years for a new release ANYWHERE on account of the Noriko Sakai drug scandal.

Well, thanks to some lame-ass anti-drug culture over in Japan, I'm importing the Pokémon movie Blu-rays from Australia for sure, hopefully for Christmas.

I keep forgetting The Ritz is setup for 70mm

yeah, it looks weird the way I wrote it, lol.

Clive Barker's alive still... The general hope is that someone like Arrow can pick up the rights to Nightbreed outside the US

I can only guess that his estate would support that decision.

If I understand you correctly, it may be possible that an unlimited, not so special pressing may be done in the future? That would be great.

The limited pressing was done as a "thank you" to the Facebook Group page that apparently helped get the release moving.

With Nightbreed it is even stranger.. they pressed 200 copies of a special edition and 50 copies of a non special edition... if I understand everything in read today correctly.

How does pressing only 250 copies benefit anyone, except scalpers? Bad enough the Phantasm set wasn't advertised as limited edition and is sold out already. At least they pressed 10,000 copies.

As per spoRv (above), now you too can weigh in without being accused (or worse) ... https://forum.fanres.com/thread-1795.html

Yeah... Autocowrecktion at its pest...

Thanks... I assume no one can... I don't want it it watch it, bug to put it on my shelf... But I assume, IF it appears on ebay, it will either be a bootleg, or a scalping price, I am not gonna pay.

Sorry I can't help you further MrBrown.

@spoRv and @JT: it is no option for me...

Yeah, it was limited to 250 copies... And only sold on the Clive barker shop site...

The "cut" you guys are speaking of is available at the spleen.

@MrBrown from what I have read The Cabal Cut was a very limited release which sold out quick. It may never have reached amazon

Having some coffee ... reading the site.

In this case: no it is not...

myinternalorgan is your friend...

What?! Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.....

^ It's all sold out MrBrown

@spoRv: what? I can't find it [Nightbreed - The Cabal Cut] at Amazon.com.

indeed

It’s corny but I like people coming together here and helping each other on these projects. Not tearing them apart through political discord. I think we have already seen the damage it can do to a forum.

I, myself, am full of political opinions but I respect that people might not want to hear them in this place. Because, like them, I come to this place so I can work on these stupid little insignificant projects. Not to get into political debates that go nowhere. Because let’s be honest: people just cannot have calm and rational political discussions anymore.

There are no rules for the shoutbox besides the rules of the forum. You can post everything, you posted. You are well within you right under the current rules. But I personally ask you as I have asked others (on all sides), to practice good human decency and lower the political rhetoric. Because I’m tired of it and I know many others are too.

@BT. Insult...no I didn't insult you BT. I'm not sure how you can even read that into what I said. I am calling into question why you felt the need to share this. Seriously, was it info you thought important to share on a fan restoration site?

Ah. Thanks. I'd forgotten aboot that one.

Instead of *rolls eyes*, you can use : rolleyes : (without the spaces separating the colons and the "rolleyes" text) to produce

It was a fair question ... nothing political and certainly nothing to roll one's eyes about, lol.

I was just saying ... it's the only real time discussion method on the site, for anything.

And this is why we can't have nice things. Perhaps try to behave yourselves when it comes to political discussion? Or--better still--take it to Everything Else or PM.

Maybe we shouldn't have a shoutbox then?

@ PDB - My answering your question was justification for your continuing with an insult? (Don't answer that.) ... @ ilovewaterslides - It's called a "shoutbox". ... @ spoRv - Seriously? Okay, you know I have regard for you. Let me bow [metal screeching]. Now, can somebody help me up?

Well, anyway, as we speak, I'm working on DVD and Blu-ray covers for my Dollars Trilogy restoration.

back on topic: "NightBreed - The Cabal Cut" is out!

@BronzeTitan: other forums, or, at least, post it in the "everything else" forum, if you want us to be aware of this!

Whether I agree or disagree with you is irrelevant, there are better forums for you to post that on than a movie restoration forum.

Yeah I think you miss the point BT, this is not your personal soapbox.

Sure thing. I'm not pointing out the fact of speaking up. I'm only agreeing with PDB because I believe it's not the best place to talk about this stuff.

@ PDB & ilovewaterslides: Well, to paraphrase German Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller (during the Nazi reign of terror) ~ ~ First they came for children downloading songs, and we did not speak out because we were not their fathers. Then they came for the DVD pirates, and we did not speak out because we did not make pirate DVDs. Then they came for Kim Dotcom for his hosting website, and we did not speak out because we it was not in our countries. Then they came for fair-use us and there was no one left to speak out for us. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_they_came_...

I doubt Exterminator 2 would be the one I'm looking for in any case, seeing that it has an older Cannon logo.

Sorry Evit, I do not have it.

Does anyone own the Shout Factory release of EXTERMINATOR 2?

OK, I believe a DVD would be my best source for an open matte Cannon logo for my Robotech: The Movie project. Only question is, which Cannon DVD in 4:3, or else with a 4:3 option, would you recommend for the open matte Cannon logo?

Yeah, the conversation about 35mm was better, right?

Ok I guess I'll be the guy and ask how is this relevant to fanres?

I support Kim Dotcom.

BTW -- "US police also allegedly abuse civil forfeiture laws en masse, and seized more assets than burglars stole beginning in 2014." [Gizmodo] -- 'Nuff said?

"Kim Dotcom has never been to the United States, is presumed innocent, and is lawfully opposing extradition under the United States-New Zealand Treaty—yet the United States by merely labeling him as a fugitive gets a judgement to take all of his assets with no due process," Rothken said. "The New Zealand and Hong Kong courts, who have authority over the assets, will now need to weigh in on this issue and we are cautiously optimistic that they will take a dim view of the Fugitive Disentitlement Doctrine and oppose US efforts to seize such assets." - https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2017...ture-case/

Out-of-control Washington DC at the behest of Hollywood: Former Megaupload chief Kim Dotcom ... In January 2012, New Zealand authorities armed with rifles and tactical gear and accompanied by police helicopters raided his rented mansion at the behest of the US, seizing millions of dollars in property and freezing Dotcom's overseas bank accounts. ... In 2016, an [U.S.A.] appeals court ruled the civil forfeiture could move forward because Dotcom never came to the US to contest it — thus making himself subject to "fugitive disentitlement." ... and thus unable to contest the seizures. - https://www.gizmodo.com.au/2017/10/us-su...re-appeal/

Nice short. But I thought it should start differently; the trailer didn't break somewhere in the middle; the ending was too magical. (Am I over-thinking this? )

35mm will always be the way movies should be projected on. Seeing a badly focused pixel marmalade in a cinema is definitely not a similar experience.

Nice little short film about the death of 35mm projection

From what I can tell, 8th generation Core laptops can be at least $800.

steal it and then it is free ...

How much can we expect to pay for one?

For those wanting to get a new laptop in the near future, the 8th generation U-series Core chips from Intel appear to be gaining on the 7th generation HQ-series Core chips. Plus, they've doubled the cores to four.
