Vidar, you received the print as "thank you" for moving goods across countries. Now I know ... you are some kind of a smuggler! That "thank you" is actually payment!!

In a way it is, but I was picking it up before I knew I get anything though :-)

Smuggling, isn't that illegal goods? This wasn't anything as such :-) Just sound equipment and not expensive, just heavy

Yes, Han is a good friend of mine, he do the long smuggling runs, because my Toyota Yaris isn't as fast as the Falcon, but I am working on it ;-)

That's great screen shots Vidar thank you I can appreciate them more and focus on them better. Here is what I watched last night of another Harryhausen classic SINBAD AND THE EYE OF THE TIGER 400 foot color sound digest.

Tonight we put on a couple of shorts,
Started with the 400ft pod race extract from The Phantom menace in Scope, very good picture too,

& secondly we put on the excellent 400ft reel of Dracula Prince of Darkenss, also in Scope, this really is a great little 400 footer as it shows the end sequence of the demise of Dracula from the previous Hammer feature with Peter Cushing putting an end to the count as well as the icy conclusion, all in all one of Deranns classic 400 reels from the Hammer Horrors. Colour has no fade and sound is excellent, not quite as pin sharpe as some of there other scope releases but very good none the less. [Wink]

Nice shots of STAR WARS Vidar and Tom I would love to have the feature you guys are so lucky to have money to burn for your hobby . I have only the digest. But I'm happy forever to have the rare feature print of the grand daddy of them all FORBIDDEN PLANET. Without this film there would BE NO WARS.

Tom
I also have the Super8 Scope "Pod Race" extract and agree its very good quality print...action packed as well, glad I bought it new from Derann.

Laksmi

Of all the Super8 films to collect "Forbidden Planet" would have to be one of the best to own...a true classic.

Super color on Forbidden Planet there. It's not so much money here in Norway, Laksmi. Star Wars was about 150-170 dollar. Many of my 16mm prints are about 15-25 dollar and they're not perfect by far, but tolerable. Many of them have been chopped and fixed later. Still enjoy them a lot though

That´s true, I paid for my 35mm Star Wars Ep. 2&3 each 250 Euro.

Yesterday I watched on 35mm: Batman (1943) chapter 5 and 6. Feature: Tarzan and the Amazons (Johnny weismuller). Yeah it was a screening like a staurday matines in the 40´s.
I will post screenshots later.

Today I watched my slightly faded Annie Hall. Still enjoy the movie though, one of my favorites

It has swedish subtitles

And here is with a cyan filter

Keaton is superb in this (usually she is in most of the things she do, but love this character)

Last night I screened two very different films, "FIVE MAN ARMY"
an Italian Western on the lines of "The Dirty Dozen", five men with
individual skills, swordsman, explosives expert etc, rob a train to
further the Mexican revolution,very enjoyable with Peter Graves
and Bud Spencer,with a rousing music score from Ennio Morricone. The second was the sequel to Psycho, "PSYCHO 2",
which I have always thought to be as good as the first film.The
opening titles coupled with a very beautiful music score from the excellent Jerry Goldsmith, and first rate photography, set the tone. Anthony Perkins portrays his role
faultlessly, as do the rest of this fine cast, a worthy sequel that
I am proud to have.

Oemer Yalinkilic , I bet 35mm films of that date don't come up very often. Johnny Weismuller was Tarzan; forget the rest.

Regarding Tarzan, I think the definitive Tarzan film has yet to be made, the novels are very non pc, but as for my favourites, I liked
Gordon Scott, and the interpretation from Christopher Lambert
must rank as excellent.

Original 1977 version of Star Wars. 16mm scope, but faded. Borrowed from a friend

Yes Robert, this kind of film on 35mm is realy hard to find.
The seller listed on ebay also the chapter 11 of the Batman Serial, link

I bought only 5&6 to have an example with the cliffhanger at the end and the next folowing chapter.
I am searching since many years to complete two other Serials, from I have the half of the chapters(Captain Marvel & King of the Rocket men) and it is impossible to complete them. The seller of the Batman Serial have all this Serials complete for sale, but he wants $5000 for each of them. You see, it is another price range for film. In this case is a Super 8 or 16mm print cheaper.
