I don't feel like I get much out of it like I used to, and I'd rather work or go to shows or go to movies or play video games or sleep or eat food or whatever than spend all my time posting here.

Can all of you read posts in voices that easily for real or are u just saying so as a joke, genuine question.

I didn't say it was awful or insane, but I don't really understand what you're asking for. The exact thing you're asking for already exists in an unofficial capacity, I mean the main guy doing it was hired to restore films professionally based on the quality of the work. I don't understand what the distinction is that makes it worth getting if it's "official" VS something functionally identical that's not.

CelticPredator posted:I think the theatrical version of BvS is complete garbage and the extended is miles better, but it wouldn't be fair to those that prefer the original if they didn't release it. I know that a few of you here dig the theatrical more so than the extended. Yeah but the thing I was saying earlier is that what you're asking for exactly already exists exactly. I don't understand why it being unofficial/not available for "purchase" somehow makes it less valid when you can still get it super easy. Like ,yeah, I agree that it's too bad that they didn't officially release a high-res version but who cares, people put in a lot of time and effort and did it themselves and now it's out there. Who cares if it's "unofficial" if it's the exact same thing?

RogueTM posted:Well, as far as I can see the un-official versions are created from the NTSC Laserdisc, which mean that the source material only has a resolution of 580 × 480 with 268,800 pixels, and no matter how much you polish that it won't ever come close to a blu-ray resolution of 1920 × 1080 with 2,073,600 pixels taken from film. U gotta see a little farther

Anonymous Robot posted:Wow, drat. One of the inmates I've been in correspondence with requested some sheet music, and I'm trying to get it to him, but A) I can't find it for free anywhere, and B) even if I bought it, it gets watermarked with my name so that I can't legally distribute it to him, meaning the COs will probably destroy it. What a hassle. Could you buy it under his name?

Jenny Angel posted:Hey can anyone recommend some good cooking games? I'm one of the best Overcooked players in the whole wide world so obviously I love that, but all its recipes are super simple, with the challenge being more about managing co-op coordination in all the offbeat kitchen designs. I'm looking for something more based around larger numbers of recipes, more ingredients and processes involved in the recipes, etc. Something that I can play to sorta get myself into a soothing rhythm of memorized patterns to make a perfect lasagne or such I can't really think of anything besides Cooking Mama & Chop, Serve, Delicious, neither of which are available on Xbox. Both are on like every phone/tablet device ever & i'm sure aren't too intensive if you tried to run them on your computer + Chop, Serve, Delicious has xbox controller support so you could just plug in your xbox controller thru USB.

TrixRabbi posted:Yo I got a food-for-thought question for y'all. If you could remake one movie which one and why? Big Top Scooby Doo because i remember catching it by accident and being genuinely surprised by the writing/casting being actually funny/clever (Peter Stormare plays a heavy metal singer accused of being a werewolf, Jeff Dunham is a silent clown) But I can remake it without fear because if its mediocre nobody's surprised because the original wasn't particularly good & people will still see it regardless of mediocrity because its scooby doo branded.

Isn't it possible that in an alternative universe Donald Trump actually starred in Citizen Kane?
