Jahled Posted March 7, 2003 Share Posted March 7, 2003 Guys am I dreaming? Just found this: http://www.dvdfamily.net/ But CAUTION, this seems so implausable before you get your credit cards out; and I can here the russle of wallets worldwide, is this genuine? http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jahled Posted March 8, 2003 Author Share Posted March 8, 2003 Ok, just checked my email this morning; they write: According to our Asian supplier, they were remastered from laser disc version due to high demand. This is real DVD quality. Thank you. Regards,Steven. So whilst the quality may be better, these arn't official, and I doubt will be around for long, especially when George gets to hear about them! http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElvisMiggell Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 May as well get a copy though huh? Elvismiggell. Strike me down and i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine...

the_mask Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 I wouldn't do it. Like Jahled said, they are not official and should vanish quite fast. I've seen part of the Laserdisc version of ANH once, it was very good (although not quite DVD), but if this shop or their Asian 'retailer' gets busted and your adress and credit card number are listed under buyer, then the police will just come after you as well and take them away from you. So you won't have the movies and the money will be lost, too. Sorry, guess we'll have to wait until George will finally release this original DVD pack .... http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElvisMiggell Posted March 10, 2003 Share Posted March 10, 2003 Ah. I've just ordered a copy because i thought, what the heck, may as well get a copy. Oh well, i'll wait for a knock on my door...

Jahled Posted March 10, 2003 Author Share Posted March 10, 2003 A mate of mine at work pointed out something else as well. If they're taken from laserdisk then they're going to be pre-special edition...dah! I've asked my mate in Beijing to try and get me two lots of trilogys anyhow! I'm kind of looking forward to seeing all the deleated scenes from the original films when George Lucas finally releases them though...drool...salivate...gurgle...wimper... http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElvisMiggell Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 They won't be as good as the new trilogy though, because the master copy will have aged. Elvismiggell.

the_mask Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Actually that Laserdisc I saw was the special edition of ANH. The DVDs that will be released by Lucas should look as good as the new ones, think about what they did to the already more than 20 year old master tapes back when they released the special edition, they were practically new movies Also I'm waiting and drooling for these deleted scenes. A buddy once told me years ago that he got a tape from the video rental with a making of and outtakes from the original trilogy. He said that you could see R2 racing into a wall and such things http://img147.imageshack.us/img147/5183/animated9pn.gifhttp://img146.imageshack.us/img146/1778/reloadedbannerdu8.gifhttp://www.swrebellion.com/images/banners/rebellionbanner02or6.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jahled Posted March 12, 2003 Author Share Posted March 12, 2003 I refer, in my usual high standards of gibberish, to page 48 of the 'Action Figure Archive,' published by Virgin Publishing. The scene was cut from Return of the Jedi, and involved the Royal Guards standing side by side at the turbolift to the Emperor's chamber, and 'will punish even highly ranked officials who attempt to enter without permission.' http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElvisMiggell Posted March 14, 2003 Share Posted March 14, 2003 It was a very funny sketch show on prime time tv over here. I think it used to be 9:30 on BBC2. Basically it was full of surreal sketches, including one of a tailors where the two men used to wind up their customers with persistent cries of; "Do you like that sir?" "Oooh, suit you sir" And so on and so forth. It was funny at the time. Elvismiggell. Strike me down and i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine...

RAH-HA! For he to is a fellow Star Wars brother! Rock on!!! The one, bloody, thing he neglected to mention in his email to me, was whether he can get them in my DVD region (2) ...mumble...grumble.... Anyway, me is sorted! Elvis my friend, you have mail. http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jahled Posted March 24, 2003 Author Share Posted March 24, 2003 WOO-HA! Ok guys, I just got home to the original Star Wars Triliogy on DVD!!! They exist, quite obviously have absolutely nothing to do with Lucasfilms, but I can confirm, are from the digitally remastered movies!!! Given I got them off the internet, from a registered DVD company, they're legal right? http://www.jahled.co.uk/smallmonkeywars.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElvisMiggell Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 I should think it's legal. Certainly I can't see them being confiscated. I've now got about 4 copies because all my friends are aking me for them! Elvismiggell. Strike me down and i will become more powerful than you can ever imagine...
