ripping here, downloading there

I'm fighting with my DVD-ripper right now trying to create a version of Star Wars Cribs that I can upload. It was far less painful than I thought! I had no idea I make so many weird faces though. I thought it was just because I was on camera but AD said that it was normal. Ah well!

I got a Fireside Padme figure at the meeting today, pretty much the only 3 3/4" figure from the recent wave I wanted. I behaved myself and didn't purchase anything else. I was tempted.

Oh, and Frank showed us the trench run from Star Wars Revisited. OMG SO COOL!!! I'm downloading the entire DVD right now so I can watch it in all its glory. It sounds silly and nit-picky, but it's not just some nerdy fanboy wanking over this and that. He actually made some nice tweaks and additions. I was trying to leave when he started it up and I was like "whatever" but after watching a couple minutes I had to sit down and see the whole thing. Gorgeous seamless work. You can read a list of what changes were made on the site.

Okay, I'm going to go watch 'Hot Fuzz' and hope this Cribs thing works this time around. I will let you know once I have it uploaded. :)
