What happened to MST3K v.10 DVD

[myspace.com/thejobot]

Volume One is supposed to be back in print, but I sure havn't seen it available anywhere...

Go to http://www.rhino.com/mst3k/ they have volumes 1-8 (1&3 are unavailable at Amazon.com) as well as volume 11 and "MST3K: The Essentials", but 9&10 are still MIA. I've resolved to spend all of my 'DVD cash' on MST3K and Film Crew until I have all of the volumes and single movie releases, its the best way to avoid paying so much. I'll Buy all that's in print until I have it all, and then I will buy the out of print items (including  MST3K-The movie). Thanks for all of the help guys.

If you don't already have the "Essentials" disc then buy it from here to get the bonus Shorts Vol 3 disc.

For the completely reasonable price of only $30. 

Actually, now that I think of it, 30 bucks for 3 discs isn't so bad, compared to over 40 for the 4 disc collections, but considering most of us already had Manos on DVD and VHS, it's kind of a rip.

[MrTorso]

Yeah it sucks to pay full MSRP on top of shipping and handling. I had Manos on VHS and the single DVD and I had the shorts vol 3 on VHS too.

the more manos the better (i say this sarcastically of course!)

A DAP question....

Recently downloaded a version of Revenge of the Creature - won't get into specifics as to where from.

The very beginning where the "Colored Light" versions of Mike, Tom, Gypsy and Magic Voice are being pulled back into the SOL is missing from the episode.

I'd like to get a complete copy but I'd rather not waste my time looking if there isn't one available on the web.  Can anyone tell me if a complete one is out there?

Also, it's 99.9% certain that Volume 10 got pulled because of Godzilla vs. Megalon.  I'd tell you why I believe that (and who was responsible) but it was just this argument that got me bounced off the MST3K Discussion Board.....

dipshits! so pull that episode from the set! teenage strangler is the best one on there anyways! (i seriously watch that one a few times a week)

can you send me a message w/ your theories-i am curious!

The DAP version should be complete. myspleen.net for the torrent or if you have a decent newsgroup host it was posted about a week ago in the MST newsgroup.

Well we can assume it wasn't from the DAP then.

I just confirmed that the DAP DVD and avi both have this scene intact. So it's out there.

It has the DAP logo in the credits.  I'd show you a screengrab but it's during the credits so it doesn't really prove anything.

But it has the logo.  As does the Star Force (Fugitive Alien 2) I just got that has part of the "Capt. Joe Intervention" skit missing and the video from the gunfight right after Ken sees his fake mother looks like shit.  And you'd think since it's a Sandy Frank film people would try to put the best version up there that 'savailable since it will never be on DVD - same with Revenge of the Creature.  Not that it's Sandy Frank but will most likely never be on Rhino - Universal owns it and even if they would let Rhino lease it, it would probably be for so much money Rhino wouldn't touch it.

(or maybe people who sell copies try to make sure the best copies aren't available for download?).

Someone on another board once asked why everyone was so upset about what Rhino was going to release and when since everything is available on the DAP....and now I think I know the answer to that question.  As a rule it looks like the Sci-Fi's are in good to acceptable shape and the CC's are better than nothing.

No you misread what I said.

The DAP distributes it's files only 1 way, from a free stand alone edonkey server using a whitelist. All files have the encode release date in the name. eg MST3K - S33 - 20070701 - MST3K-TM Press Kit.avi . So every file is verified and has a known history.

The files at some point may have come from the DAP, a long time ago when they were the best available, but they aren't now. you didn't get your files from the DAP or they would be the current versions that I have . Who knows what has happened to those files since they were downloaded years ago, corrupted? transcoded? cut? At the very least outdated.

I'm guessing you purchased someones old DVD set or something.

Okay....I might have earlier versions.  I haven't tried eDonkey yet.

Speaking of Volume 10, does anyone who has Netflix know what the wait time is like for the DVDs there?  I can't check since I'm not a member, but I'd definitely join up if I can get the Volume 10 DVDs in a reasonable amount of time.

[bettertomorrowamy]

no wait

Awesome, thanks!
