    Megaupload Shut Down 

    Posted on 01-20-2012 02:35 AM  Number of Views: 74 

    Inline Image With the protests of SOPA/PIPA still resonating throughout the world wide web, the FBI has shut down one of the largest and most popular filehosting sites, Megaupload.

    Long a hated target of the film and music industries, Megaupload seems to think that they are part of the future of of content distribution, and are open to working with the very industry that despises them (remember Napster?).

    From the Megaupload site (before it was removed) "The fact is that the vast majority of Mega's Internet traffic is legitimate, and we are here to stay. If the content industry would like to take advantage of our popularity, we are happy to enter into a dialogue. We have some good ideas. Please get in touch."

    This will obviously effect the millions of users who depend on MU for their filesharing needs, but will it really fix the root causes of, and in effect reduce internet piracy, or will people just migrate to other sites? Share your thoughts on the Megaupload shutdown and SOPA/PIPA here.

    George Lucas Calls Out Fan-Editors In New York Times Article

    Inline Image From a New York Times article comes this interesting recognition of fanediting from none other than George Lucas himself.

    "When fanboys wailed, Lucas did not just hear the scream of young Jedis; he heard something like the voice of the studio. The dumb, uncomprehending voice in his Socratic dialogues — a voice telling him how to make a blockbuster. “On the Internet, all those same guys that are complaining I made a change are completely changing the movie,” Lucas says, referring to fans who, like the dreaded studios, have done their own forcible re-edits. “I’m saying: ‘Fine. But my movie, with my name on it, that says I did it, needs to be the way I want it.’ ”

    Lucas seized control of his movies from the studios only to discover that the fanboys could still give him script notes. “Why would I make any more,” Lucas says of the “Star Wars” movies, “when everybody yells at you all the time and says what a terrible person you are?”

    Is Lucas really saying he's fine with FanEdits? Has our love of editing Star Wars given Lucas the perfect excuse to not release the original versions? It seems what George has missed and will likely continue to miss is that the fans of Star Wars don't really care what he does with Star Wars and understand it's his to do with as he wishes. Some even enjoy the Special Editions as just that, Special Editions. What the fans really want is the option to own (likely for the 4th or 20th time) the original unaltered films in whatever the latest high-quality format is. And as those movies are of great value in the history of film, one would think that he would want to be a part of their preservation.

    In the meantime, long live Star Wars FanEdits!

    Posted on 01-15-2012 11:19 PM  Number of Views: 46 

    Inline ImageLOST: THE MINISERIES – PART 2 by DriggyDriggs, has been released!

    In Part 2 (of 4) of this season 6 fan edit, the Man in Black, disguised as John Locke, is recruiting others to join him. Among those he wants is the mysterious Richard Alpert, whose past is revealed through flashbacks. Also, Hurley has a new mission from Jacob, and it involves Jack.

    (Spoilers for those who did not see Season 6: )
    This show had always been about 2 things: the people and the island. This version completely removes the afterlife flashes from season six and turns it into a miniseries divided into 2-hour parts.

    In this alternate version, the story is solely from the perspective of the Colonials. The Cylons are simply evil killer robots, a dark force of nature that sweeps in and exacts its revenge on their creators. No Mission from God or Mommy/Daddy issues for these Cylons! Just kill, kill, kill!!!!
