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.

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.
Sony Pictures YouTube Channel just put up their "Starship Troopers Trailer - 20th Anniversary Edition Available on 4K Ultra HD" ... that you can watch in glorious ... hold on to your battle rifles ... 1080p!! Hmmm ... --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zPYuV_jGk7M
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ + ^ ^ ^ ^ ' "Blade Runner ..." This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Crunchyroll. Sorry about that.' . And yet ^ ^ ^ clearly states: "And do you know what's even better news for us fans? This little anime short is probably finished by now because it will be shown on Sony Pictures YouTube Channel on September 26 2017, which is just a little bit before the release of Blade Runner 2049 on October 6." -- It looks like Crunchyroll is exclusively handling that part --> http://www.crunchyroll.com/blade-runner-...022-748417
Whoa! From the director of Cowboy Bebop, too (and it shows) -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNrGEQBGqMU

Yay! Tonight... First time in German Free TV... "The Evil Dead" (not the Remake)... 
Indeed Bronze, I'm sure either way maybe someone should let Silverwook know. Maybe the issue can be tracked down and George Lucas can get a whooping. 
"Jetrell Fo: These are the Original releases (Han shoots first)." -- But does Luke throw his grappling-line twice? Now THAT would the FIRST original !
That would be good for additional notice ... just in case there is something afoot.
Well, I'd say that, even if we are all Star Wars fans here (more or less), maybe it's better to go to OT, as it's THE Star Wars forum for restorations, preservations, fan edits etc.
but he later goes on to say that they are better than the Team Negative One editions, at least that is how it reads if you go through his posts sequentially, it could be a combo of bad english and enthusiasm though, just i dont really keep up with the star wars side of fanres, dont know if anything new is pending and thought a heads up might be in order just in case
Sounds to me like he's talking about DeSpecialized ... which isn't new by any means.
Jdawg72 Thats the thing about it. Only a limit of ppl have these bcuz Lucas will never allow theses to be released at all. Disney cannot get them bcuz Lucas destroyed them. Just wanting to share them if ppl want them (21:14:06)
(21:14:06)Jdawg72 These are the Original releases (Han shoots first). I saw that sum ppl are asking for the Originals. Well, these are it it. I beling to another private tracker . These guys are partners wth Harmys He is the one that made all this possible. He got a whole of the Original 35 mm film and digitaly scanned each frame etc etc. Tell u what youtube Harmys Despecialized Star Wars and get bak with me (20:45:40)
yes, hdtorrents and it was in their chat, they implied it was better than the Team negative One stuff and that it was new and next to nobody had them
Do you have a link to the thread? Can you send it to me via pm here? Thanks.
only ask because someone is making a bit of noise over at hdt, sounds like they think they have something new, something better than what is already out there and if so wondered if you guys were okay with that happening
anyone here know if there are new scans of Original Trilogy Star Wars being released?
Just two words . . . Mild Mannered Superman! https://mmsuperman.tumblr.com/
@IcePrick: I may have the German Disc set. Give me a note, if your ripping failed, and I may check at the weekend, when I am at home, where my DVDs are.
Okay, it looks like I was finally able to rip the disc. I hope nothing's corrupted.
Does anyone here have the PAL version of the four disc special edition DVD of 'Superman: The Movie'? My fourth disc seems to be defective and I can't play it properly.
He was an incredible actor and he seemed like a good person, the kind of guy you would enjoy hanging out with. He's popped up in alot of my favorites. He will be truly missed.
^ ^ Be sure you get your "I Lived Through IRMA!" tee-shirt. (I don't think it counts if you don't get the tee-shirt.) BTW, best to you and all the rest!
Hey guys, finally getting online after Irma, thank you all for the kind words after my last post, means a lot, everything turned out fine since the storm weakened to a Cat2 after landfall. I STILL HAVE A PLACE TO LIVE YAY! Again, thanks.
Oh, no need to hunt ... let your fingers do the walking. Call'em on their PayPerCall number (they're willing to talk as long as you like)!
I will be gone for the next 4 days on a needed sabatical ... gone Sasquatch hunting ya know. Enjoy the weekend everyone.

Jetrell Fo I just seen your previous shout to me and no thats not why I came here. The reason I came here was because I fortunately stumbled across spoRv's Alien IMAX Fundemental cut on AvP Galaxy which led me to here. Back to Blutopia, I wasnt aware of this tracker until lastnight so I noticed a few people chatting on here and thought to myself "you dont ask, you dont get".
Apparently my post was confusing. The point is this is not the place to come requesting Blutopia invites right out of the gate and if someone told you it was they were wrong.
No worries Jetrell Fo you dont need to explain to me what private trackers are ive been using them for sharing the past 9 years
Blutopia doesn't just hand out invites to everyone including it's own members. They aren't a free leech site either. Their members are dedicated and there are ratio rules.
I would suggest to let these invite requesting and possible fulfilling be handled someplace else... There are enough such thing sharing communities...
Agree, but maybe we should start a thread named "request a blutopia invite here", or something like that... it seems much needed!
Not sure if this is best place to ask but anyone here have an ivitation to blutopia?
@Feallan- Yep, the prequels at least had a story and were kid-friendly for the most part. Ep7 & R1 have almost no redeeming qualities IMO.
Nope, the JJA-type-of-flares, I suspect! And don't forget random shaking camera movements and out-of-focus-just-for-the-sake-of-it! 
Well, that's your opinion... I liked Episode 7 more than 1-3... I also liked Rogue One... And after what Ja did with Star Trek I also think that he is capable of bringing Star Wars onto a darker and mature side... Yes Episode 7 was quite the same story overall as episode 4, but on the other hand: After the franchise shatters Episodes 1-3 did left, he never had a good fundament, so I see the copy and paste more like the try of building a base for upcoming stories...
There's not much to wait for. New Star Wars is trash and it doesn't even matter who directs it. The two movies they've done so far are just soulless checkbox-ticking cashgrabs, don't expect Ep 8 or 9 to be any better.
I am a wait and see person so I don't have anything to contribute to this "debate" about Star Wars and it's "directors".
The fiction of Star Wars has so much possibilites regarding creative art, story telling and interesting new characters. And all we're getting until this point is a copy-and-pasted OT. I dislike the PT too, yes. But Lucas was brave enough trying to tell a new story. He was just a messy director / dialogue writer.
I'll leave this tweet by Pixelated Boat here: https://twitter.com/pixelatedboat/status...5806100480. As crazy is it sounds, I pretty much completely agree with it.
Well, at least hardly any of the kid-friendly tone, if that, has carried over from the prequels.
Bleech. I didn't like TFA and I think J.J. is pretty illsuited for Star Wars overall. The way Disney has been handling the franchise doesn't give me much confidence.
Why "help"? He's a good (very good? fair? surely not bad) director, and it would be difficult to repeat the "success" of the prequels, so...
