| Star Wars Special Edition Trilogy + Shadows of the Empire |

I was thinking of doing a release of the original Star Wars Special Edition Trilogy as one of my future projects. The package would consist of HD versions of the 1997 Special Editions, the N64 title Shadows of the Empire, and an emulator to play it on. It likely won't be a Zilmar-spec emulator such as Project 64, though; I noticed a few graphical errors at the very start. Anyway, I might do this project for a release as early as this Summer.

My name is Greg. I am new to the forum. I am just starting to learn about fan restorations and have already learned much from this forum. I have no real experience with restorations but love movies and film and hope to learn much more here. Thank you.

| THX-1138: The 1978 Re-Release Cut |

Yep, I'm doing another project, this time a standalone project titled THX-1138, based on the 1978 re-release cut of the film.
This is the trailer I'll be using to promote the project on other projects of mine. The actual trailer, as will appear on my projects, will look better than the trailer you see in the link.
This time, I'll be confining myself to a single aspect ratio--the original aspect ratio of 2.33:1, in fact. The primary source shall be the Grindhouse Edition sourced from an Italian print; where Italian text appears (e.g. the closing credits), I'll sub in the equivalent shot from the Blu-ray whenever possible.
In any case, here's a preliminary spec list for my restoration:
VIDEO
Resolution: 1080p (BD), 480p (NTSC DVD), 576p (PAL DVD)
Aspect ratio: 2.33:1
AUDIO
English (mono)
Brazilian Portuguese (mono)
French (mono)
Italian (mono)
German (mono)
Mexican Spanish (mono)
Castilian Spanish (mono)
SUBTITLES
English SDH
French
German
Spanish
Italian
Dutch
Finnish
Japanese
Portuguese
Swedish
The above spec list is not final, which is most true for the subtitles; I might have to drop some of the subtitle options, ultimately, and I have no illusions that I'll be able to get everything I want for this project. But I'll do my darnedest with what I do have.

| Blade Runner 2049: 2D IMAX + 3D |

If a full open matte version of Blade Runner 2049 is out there, I was hoping to do it as one of my projects, with the 2D IMAX version (complete with the custom intro) on one disc and the 3D version on the other. Obviously, I'm planning to include the Atmos track on both discs. Additionally, I'm going to regrain the 2D IMAX version with 70mm film grain using a special version of the 70mm film grain I managed to procure from a helpful YouTuber in stunning 4K.

Exactly as the title says. I'm determined to finally build a PC to at least get my own materials captured and do some editing. Ideally I'd like it to be able to double as a HTPC so I can watch projects without burning discs and for it to be able to run some games here and there.
Primarily I need to capture my LD collection. I've now got over 500 discs so that's a lot of audio detective work to do.
I've set aside $400 so far. Would that be adequate to build a decent editing machine for our usual line of work or is it going to take a lot more? I've never actually done any PC building before so I really have no idea what I'm doing.
