I received my film today and I'm thrilled. But my question is how full are your reels of the same film. Is it possible that the 200' is also spliced on. My reel is close to overflowing just curious if the film is that full or if it has something else added on.

Austin,

My copy almost fills up the entire reel as well. The running time is about 18 min. I don't have the 200' so I don't know what the missing scenes are. You might have them if your film is longer than 18 min.

The 200ft reel can be spliced into the 400ft digest prior to the Muppets' arrival in Hollywood. It's mostly the frontier town duel and Animal turning into a giant monster.

I thought the 200' was more of an ending rather than a intro

Austin,

If the 200' reel is just the showdown in the ghost town and Animal getting big from the insta-grow pills, that is near the end of the movie. It's right before the Muppets arrival in Hollywood and the big finale.

I don't have those scenes in my film so I have the regular 400' version. Is that showdown footage in the film you just got?

Also, I got your message but I couldn't reply. Your mailbox is full.

You wanted to know if I have any film for sale or trade.

Not at the moment but I am open to the possibility. Are you looking for a particular film on super 8 or 16mm? Do you have films you would consider trading?

Let me know.
