Thanks for your interest in the Star Wars Despecialized Edition. First of all, allow me to emphasize that I'm simply a fellow Star Wars fan helping others discover this amazing project. Credit for its actual creation goes to Harmy along with countless others who have dedicated their time, skills, and resources toward this restoration. Getting copies of the Despecialized Editions ("DE") can be a hurdle if you don't know what you're doing, so I'm here to help. Remember, as with any fan edit, YOU CAN ONLY DOWNLOAD THIS PROJECT IF YOU ARE A LEGAL OWNER OF THE OFFICIAL SOURCE. For Harmy's DE project, this means YOU MUST OWN THE BLU-RAY DISK for each respective film (i.e. Star Wars Episodes IV, V, & VI). This Star Wars fan community is built on the honor system, so your word is sufficient. Simply realize that if people who don't own legal copies of the Star Wars Original Trilogy obtain the DE, it's entirely possible that the entire project will be shut down before it's finished due to piracy allegations. So please encourage people to support the Star Wars franchise and purchase the official Blu- rays! This guide is meant to introduce people to the DE project, outline methods of obtaining copies, and explain various ways to view the media. For convenience, I encourage people to refer to this document as “TUIG” (short for “The Ultimate Introductory Guide”). Special thanks to Harmy himself for reviewing this guide (v3.0) for errors and approving its content for publication. Please see the change log for any modifications made since then. TUIG featured by Harmy at the following links: http://originaltrilogy.com/post/id/488639#TopicPost488639 (links to “The Ultimate Introductory Guide”) https://www.facebook.com/despecialized/posts/1615566828719522 (shared on official Facebook page) Section 2: About the Despecialized Editions Born out of frustrated fans’ failed attempts to convince George Lucas to release unaltered, theatrical versions of the Star Wars Original Trilogy films (Episodes IV, V, & VI), the online forum community built around a popular petition hosted at OriginalTrilogy.com turned to discussion of fan edits as a means to obtain their shared goal without Lucas’ help. Eventually, a fan restoration project led by Harmy as the primary video editor resulted in the what he called the Despecialized Editions. Since the initial release of the Despecialized Edition of Star Wars [“Episode IV: A New Hope”] in 2011, Harmy has since published DE versions of The Empire Strike Back [Episode V, “ESB”] and Return of the Jedi [Episode VI, “ROTJ”], and continues to release landmark updates to each of these restored films. As of December 2015, Star Wars DE is considered nearly perfected at version 2.5, ESB saw major improvements in v2.0 with future updates planned, and a workprint (rough draft) of v2.0 for ROTJ was released mere weeks before Star Wars: The Force Awakens hit theaters. If you plan to enjoy Star Wars DE to the fullest, learn how to stay informed (Section 8) so that you’ll know of future updates when they’re available! Each of the DE films includes a combination of three major projects: video, audio, and subtitles. The video itself was painstakingly restored from various sources, including the official Blu-rays, bonus DVDs, Digital TV broadcasts, film scans, and more. All these were gathered from fans around the world, then compiled and underwent massive fine-tuning by Harmy and others. The audio features availability in multiple streams. From 5.1 DTS-HD-MA surround, to 1.0 mono mix to reproduce the feel of the original theatrical showing, to various dubs in a multitude of languages, the sound choices bundled with Star Wars DE allows the films’ sound to accommodate any preference. Most audio work was contributed by hairy_hen and Belbucus. Finally, Star Wars DE also includes & supports subtitles courtesy of Project Threepio lead by CatBus. This ongoing fan project provides high-quality subtitles for Star Wars films in their unaltered forms in order to broaden the appeal of fan preservation efforts beyond the English-speaking world. HELPFUL TIP: Be aware that Harmy releases Star Wars DE in multiple formats: 1) MKV (.mkv) - the full, complete release with all features 2) AVCHD (.iso, BDMV folder) - full video with limited extras formatted for Blu-ray Disk 3) NTSC DVD5 (VIDEO_TS folder) - compromised features to fit project on a DVD (see Section 7 for more info) Many view Harmy’s Star Wars Despecialized Edition Trilogy as the quintessential version of the Original Trilogy and a testament to the unwavering dedication of fans inspired by the films. You can learn more about the project’s origin, development, and goals by reading this ABC article or searching for other online articles, as news of the project has made its way mainstream media on more than one occasion. The rest of this guide explains how to obtain copies and enjoy Harmy’s DE. Section 3: Public Torrent Method (Unofficial) Acknowledging that most people reading these instructions just want to quickly grab Harmy's DE and run, I'm starting with the easiest, but worst, download method. If you love Star Wars and want to honor Harmy's high-quality work, please use the methods described in Sections 4 or 5 instead. For the nerf-herders that remain, read on: Before starting, make sure you have a good virus scanner and ad-blocker. "Watch your step, this place can be a little rough." - Obi-Wan Kenobi DISCLAIMER: Copies of DE obtained through this method are often modified in some way from the officially released versions. See Section 6 to verify the integrity of the files. Step 1 Install a BitTorrent client that can handle torrent downloads. I recommend qBittorrent. Step 2 Select a public torrent tracker to search. While not an endorsement, unofficial versions of Harmy's DE are known to be on TPB and KAT (links go to online searches of the sites’ names to find the current URL for each site, which changes from time to time). Step 3 Use the torrent tracker's search bar to look for "Star Wars Despecialized". Select the best torrent for the version of Harmy's DE you want. - Typically, the best torrent has the most "seeds" (people hosting the file). - Be sure to read any feedback people have posted about the torrent. Step 4 Download the .torrent or use the magnet link and open with your BitTorrent client to start the download. Depending on the number of seeds and your internet connection, the download may take a long time. Section 4: Private Torrent Method (Approved) If you can gain access, the most convenient and trusted download method is via the private torrent tracker MySpleen.org. Shortly after an official release of Harmy’s projects, a torrent for the new files is uploaded to this site by someone following the project on the OT forums after gaining permission from Harmy. Thus, only a single copy of each official release is posted on this torrent tracker, though the uploader varies. Step 1 Install a BitTorrent client that can handle torrent downloads. I recommend qBittorrent. Step 2 If you don't already have an account with MySpleen.org, you'll need an invite from a current MySpleen user to create one. This is the hardest step, which only became harder when too many people joined the site to simply grab Harmy's DE and run. I no longer have any good advice on how to get an invite; most MySpleen invite threads on various forums are now closed. You'll need to be resourceful and spend some time doing Internet searches to find the best current method. If you can find a way to contact me directly, I can give 1 invite each month. Step 3 Log into MySpleen.org with your account. Go to the Torrents page and search for "Harmy" to bring up a list of all available versions of Harmy's various projects (including, but not limited to, the Star Wars Despecialized Editions of the Original Trilogy).

    VHS 2.0: AMATEUR ARCHIVING ON THE INTERNET AND THE NOSTALGIC RECLAMATION OF RETRO MEDIA by Dax Sorrenti A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Film Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) April 2012 © Dax Sorrenti, 2012 Abstract The archiving of retro media on the internet has become one of the more prolific examples of amateur archiving in recent years. Using various case studies, I argue for a new understanding of how this orphaned and obsolete media preserves important nostalgic and cultural histories. Not only this, but the preservation of niche film and television programming deserves recognition for the intricate and complex work of amateur archivists, in the aims of validating their work and viewing the sharing of this material as more than simple file sharing. Often providing the only means by which to access material, these archival sites preserve history through its media output, and I provide a glimpse into the motivations and machinations of their inner workings. In need of protection from legal prosecution, and lacking a clear understanding of their place amongst contemporary media in the mainstream, I argue for a nostalgic reclamation of this material, that can co-exist alongside other media with little to no harm. ii Preface The original research for this study, including all correspondence with individuals and the study of website communities, has been approved by the UBC Behavioural Research Ethics Board, certificate H11-02519. iii Table of Contents Abstract.............................................................................................................................. ii Preface............................................................................................................................... iii Table of Contents ............................................................................................................

Fandom Edits Rogue One and the New Star Wars Gerry Canavan For the first 35 years of its existence, the Star Wars franchise was branded as the inspired vision of a single auteur-genius, George Lucas, who controlled the franchise both creatively and economically. Among its major competi- tors in science fiction and fantasy, perhaps only Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings has been so closely identified with the mind of one person—and where Tolkien had his legendarium, the mythopoeic totality of the Middle- earth narrative, Lucas had his saga. In interviews, Lucas typically spoke of the Star Wars saga as a unitary megatext from which the first movie just happened to draw somewhere in the middle.1 Lucas’s self-conscious promotion of Star Wars as a modern myth—intensified by his frequent references to Joseph Campbell’s study of mythic narrative, The Hero with a Thousand Faces—presented the narrative as emerging from a coherent “master plan” Lucas developed in the 1970s and that has slowly unfurled ever since.

  • Reception and Manipulation of Film in Digital Media
    KADIR HAS UNIVERSITY SOCIAL SCIENCES INSTITUTE MASTER PROGRAM IN COMMUNICATIONS STUDIES NEW WAYS OF SEEING: RECEPTION AND MANIPULATION OF FILM IN DIGITAL MEDIA Master Thesis EZGİ ARIDURU Advisor ASSOC. PROF. SELİM EYÜBOĞLU Istanbul, 2010 ABSTRACT NEW WAYS OF SEEING: RECEPTION AND MANIPULATION OF FILM IN DIGITAL MEDIA Ezgi Arıduru M. A. Program in Communications Studies Advisor: Assoc. Prof. Selim Eyüboğlu July 2010 The viewer’s access to film is what defines his or her relation to film. Access to film has never been as available as it is today, since videodisc technologies offer a novel relation to film based on digital computer. It is the computer and the digitized nature of film that re-defines the relation as manipulation. This thesis aims at providing a current account of the change in the relation of film and viewer. Following the introduction of the videodisc technology, the viewer was able to claim and practice an authority over films gained as early as the advent of pre-recorded videocasette. Fan commentaries and fanedited films are two current examples of this novel relation and exhibit significant characteristics for defining what may be the future for film and viewer.

Tibbetts, Ph.D. ______________________________________ Matthew Jacobson, M.F.A. ______________________________________ Kevin Willmott, M.F.A. ______________________________________ Ronald Wilson, Ph.D. ______________________________________ Kij Johnson, M.F.A. Date Defended: July 19, 2017 The Dissertation Committee for Joshua Wille certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Beyond The Phantom Edit: A Critical History and Practical Analysis of Fan Edits ______________________________________ Chair: John C. Tibbetts, Ph.D. Date Approved: July 19, 2017 !ii Abstract Fan edits are essentially unauthorized alternative versions of films made by fans, whom I define as people with intense interest in films and related media. Unlike traditional film editing, which is characterized by a new assemblage of original film or video content, fan editing is a form of recombinant filmmaking that reactivates existing arrangements of audiovisual material. Fan edits are noncommercial transformative works that illustrate the mutability of digital cinema as well as the potential for new media artists, experimental filmmakers, and diverse critical voices to emerge from a networked public. The Phantom Edit (2000) is a seminal fan edit based on Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace (1999) that established a model of production and distribution for fan edits. As a central research problem, this study recognizes that the failure of previous scholarship to account accurately for the history of The Phantom Edit, as well as an evident lack of close engagement with contemporary fan edits, have hindered the ability of scholars to grapple with significant developments in fan edit culture.
