Rush Didact Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 I agree that extended editions of p/g and ASOH are unlikely, but I'm still hoping for one for ESL. It was shot on 35mm film, unlike the other two; film is expensive stuff and they wouldn't have thrown out the negatives. There was someone on the Steve Hoffman forums who worked on Beyond the Lighted Stage who claimed to have seen the film canisters in the Anthem archives, so I do believe they still exist. The only question is whether the entire show was filmed or not in the first place. Even if it wasn't, you could do a spectacular 4k remaster of those negatives. It boggles my mind that it hasn't been done yet, frankly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't ASOH on film, too? It doesn't look like video tape like the GUP one. Of course, I'm just as curious about all the other shows we know were filmed, plus the remaining footage from the 1997 Toronto and 1990 Auburn Hills shows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just went back and had a look at ASOH and it IS film, you can see the odd dust speck here and there! I never noticed that!! Okay, come on guys, bring these things into the 21st century, they could look SO good... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edhunter Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 The questions that were read in Boston were deep, and Ged kept saying “Wow, that’s a hard one..” I kept it light and asked “Can you beat up John Myung?” It wasn’t read. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
