>I’ve been racking my brains as to who told me about the possible plot of the sequel, and I’ve just remembered who it was.

>FARGO BOYLE!!!

…Have you been studying this like I told you?

[p2p_productions]

There’s an Outro to that episode, too. :)

Lincoln’s speech at the end of the first film clinches it for me. That whole scene just makes Excellent Adventure timeless, IMO (80’s hair styles notwithstanding). But I do agree, Bogus Journey is hilarious. I love both.

DO check this out, by the way…

I think B&T³ has potential. I always thought the original was great, and that the sequel had great elements – like watching Shatner ramble into his communicator just moments after they get dumped. :D

I just hope they can work in some kind of fitting tribute to George Carlin and Clarence Clemons. And nail the soundtrack, of course.

[p2p_productions]

Yep, that’s one of mine…

…although this is the first I’ve heard of that website. Hmm.

A similar kind of thing happened with a ‘Cast This Guy As Superman For The Next Movie’ type-page that also used one of mine without asking.

>Official promo document for series X

And not forgetting “The Rest”…

[p2p_productions]

“Sorry, Seb. It’s three no’s – you haven’t made it through to bootcamp”.

[p2p_productions]

>P2P your wallpaper is made of win. I’ve nicked it for my desktop – don’t mind if I do!

:D

>Use that wallpaper for a Series I-VIII style BtE cover and I think we’re good to go. Hell, I’d use it.

Just did a quick test – wondered where I’d seen it before – then realised I’d already posted an almost identical version above..! :P

[p2p_productions]

I’ll see what I can do. :) In the meantime, here’s another one of mine…

Is this what you’re after, Seb..?

[p2p_productions]

Ha! I do recall that particular image not taking very long to put together… honest! Generally, a quick cover at that resolution takes hardly any time at all. The higher res you go, the longer it takes to finish. :)

[p2p_productions]

This one..?

…No, that’s not mine – but if I recall, I did map it onto the Amaray case to show what it’d look like printed. Very nice concept, overall. Personally, I would’ve stayed with the light grey colour scheme of the original photo, just for continuity’s sake with the rest of the set. Also, if placed next to the other cases in sequence, it’ll offset the segmented spine logo slightly, but that’s just nitpicky, I guess.

Actually, they probably could’ve done something similar with this new budget set – presumably, four/eight new spines is enough space to include a cast photo/panorama or something.

I remember doing this quick, slightly jokey front cover below ages ago. Took me about ten minutes.

[p2p_productions]

Bless you, Seb. :)

The comp was actually for that Red Dwarf Network site that appeared/disappeared mysteriously. For my hard work, I did actually get a consolation prize – a DVD, if I recall.

Speaking of which, if anyone needs any graphic design stuff doing, let me know. I’m reasonably priced and can do paint by numbers and everything. :D

[p2p_productions]

Cheers, Pete. Appreciate it.

[p2p_productions]

My entry for the cover design comp from a while back…

[p2p_productions]

[p2p_productions]

I’m usually charitable with my praise of new artwork… Still, at least the weather’s nice, I suppose.

[p2p_productions]

[p2p_productions]

>Hell yeah. You kinda spoiled yourself there, among the best DVD sets out there.

For sure! Rivals most DVD sets today – even more impressive when you consider it was more or less a port of the laserdisc release IIRC.

[p2p_productions]

My first DVD was T2 in the metal tin, too – what an introduction to DVD. Think my first boxset might have been Alien Legacy (waaaay before I got my hands on a region 1 copy of Alien Quadrilogy).

[p2p_productions]

I must not try and outbid you on eBay at 2am while drunk.

[p2p_productions]

Merry Christmas, Dan and G&T!

[p2p_productions]

thanncs forr dat sebb, altoguh i do thing my speeling iss immpuving bi leapes end bouands lattly.

[p2p_productions]

Yeah, this or a Tim Burton-directed adaptation of The Dark Knight Returns with Keaton back in the suit.

[p2p_productions]

Cheers, Dan!

And I’m hoping eventually, we’ll get a DVD release of Paul and Pauline’s video diaries (outside of the Coogan Boxset). And Brian Walden interviewing Alan B’Stard, while we’re at it. :D

[p2p_productions]

[p2p_productions]

Encore!

[p2p_productions]

>I’ve just come.

Yeah, I heard it from here.

[p2p_productions]

> I want to see Amy Pond with Mr Flibble. NOW!

[p2p_productions]

Nah, just found it on a fan site, I think.

[p2p_productions]

[p2p_productions]

I’m sure I’ve mentioned this genius before… Ah, what the hell – let’s mention him again.

And then perhaps onto the Wild Fowl park in Pepperstock with a bawtleah’skowtch!

[p2p_productions]

Here’s a nice WIP Starbug on TOS… http://www.reddwarf.co.uk/forum/messages.cfm?threadid=9FB4EEC0-E558-7A23-F014E8147F9C1356

[p2p_productions]

Like this..? ;)

[p2p_productions]

Very nice work, indeed. Loving this pic…

[p2p_productions]

>If deviantart.com is blocked, then hosted images will block too ;-)

Just wondered about that, a minute ago… :D

Uhh, okay – let’s try this:

[p2p_productions]

:D

You can find another set here (in the ‘Models and Sculps’ folder): http://reddwarffans.deviantart.com/

[p2p_productions]

> Spot the Red Dwarf reference.

‘JMC’..? And yes – you can’t beat a good model. Nice work!

[p2p_productions]

> Should we do some work into how to make this happen?

As far as I know, you can purchase broadcast quality copies of many of these old shows from the ITV archive. Recently, I heard someone bought an entire series for around ?600-700. But actually getting individual series/compilations released on home video… That would REALLY cost.

[p2p_productions]

As far as station loyalty goes, TBH I alternated, but stuck mostly with CITV.

Going Live! was just great. With the exception of a few eps of Live & Kicking, I never much followed Saturday morning TV after that.

I hope that one day, they’ll be a digital channel devoted to all these old shows. Imagine how great that could be. With the same schedules, and ads too. :D

[p2p_productions]

>Also? Round The Bend is a classic.

I knew I forgot something! Yes, a Round The Bend DVD release would be ace.

[p2p_productions]

>Used to love Bad Influence as a kid I think Nam Rood is now in The Royal as a porter

Yes, you’re right! And Nam Rood is Door Man backwards… :o

Ah, the good old days… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rg-E2jXVx5k

[p2p_productions]

I’d still love to see Spatz and Kappatoo again. Maybe a compliation DVD of Fun House in a special edition Mullet-style slipcase…

Shows like How2 and Bad Influence were always popular in our house, too. Wonder what Nam Rood’s up to these days..?

[p2p_productions]

>The second film is undeniably shit, the soundtrack on the other hand is awesome – may be blasphemous to say this but even better than the first?

Not at all. Although TBH, I do prefer the original OST. The second is just as well put together, if not better. The difference is almost the same as vinyl over MP3. It totally depends on what mood you’re in.

On a related note, I actually have an original Louis Jordan, Decca 78 – the one Elwood puts on for Jake in the apartment (Let The Good Times Roll). Always plays best with a slice of dry white toast… ;)

>Across The Universe trumps it, if only for Eddie Izzard?s rendition of ?Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite?.

Haven’t seen it. But now, I have to.

[p2p_productions]

IMO, the original has to be the best musical feature film ever made. Mostly as the soundtrack fits SO well with the story.

Always thought the sequel would’ve benefitted from addressing Belushi’s death head-on. Elwood getting the band back together to perform a memorial concert for Jake could’ve been great.

I wonder, does this mean this proposed series will be a 70’s/80’s prequel, or reboot?

[p2p_productions]

…Uh, isn’t it 106 miles to Chicago? :D

And personally, as far as the films go: love the first, admire the second. I just wonder what form this series could take.

[p2p_productions]

>I?m surprised there?s no mention of an H to be honest.

Good point! I must admit, it’d be difficult to release a wearable H unless they came in packs of ten, or something. The glue would never last, surely.

[p2p_productions]

>Interestingly they seem to have chosen to go with the series I costumes for Rimmer and Lister.

I wonder if, as far as the Lister costume goes, the reason they didn’t go with his ‘classic’ leathers is because they’re covered in various patches and badges which would each need to be cleared for mass production.

I heard of a similar type of story recently where there were plans to release a 1:1 scale Ghostbusters proton pack, but it too was covered with tiny, little stickers and other trademarked items, so the project was shelved. Also, I think another company had the rights to make GB costumes (as opposed to replica props), so technically, the pack would’ve had to have been released ‘non-wearable’ (i.e. without any straps, etc).

Shame, really. I wouldn’t be surprised if the packs in the new film are redesigned just enough to allow for a future release.

Would still love to get my hands on a replica Rimmer badge & ‘H’ box set, though.

[p2p_productions]

No prob. :)
