Guest sevenhooks Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 They need to know that even if the print is damaged, they should STILL release it because they'll still sell tons of copies worldwide. ANYTHING would be better than what's currently available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HANZOSTEEL Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 OK, you guys inspired me i will e-mail them as well. I dont think that they would say it is not going to be released as you told us unless they were not planning on releasing the film however they are always a bit general when they are answering questions so there is a chance. Was the print really known to be damaged? e-mail sent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 5th Yang Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Surprise surprise, still no response back from Celestial. At least they could give me a half- crap response after I send numerous emails. But thanks to Linn maybe there's a small chance something will get done here in the states. 5th Yang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sevenhooks Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Was the print really known to be damaged? Other than heresay on message boards, I've never seen any real confirmation whatsoever to suggest that there was print damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 5th Yang Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Was the print really known to be damaged? Wish I knew Sevenhooks but I know the LOC has a print and most likely a good one. If the LOC only knew how much I'd pay them for an under-the-counter copy.

Guest sevenhooks Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Description: 1 videocassette of 1 (VHS) : sd., col. ; 1/2 in. viewing copy. Unfortunately, while perhaps better than what's currently available, a VHS tape hardly constitutes a "print". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lei Kung Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 So could anyone just go down to the library of congress and check out To Kill a Mastermind? Maybe we should hold a small film fest in the parking lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lousy Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 I've got a library card for the Library of Congress. If it's possible, I'll volunteer to check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sevenhooks Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 You can make an appointment at the LOC and watch a film/video, etc. From what I understand though, it's all done in a fairly controlled environment. In other words, there's no "checking out" a copy of To Kill a Mastermind like you would check out say, a first edition, hardcover To Kill a Mockingbird at your local town library. Would be fun though. I was thinking a while back of setting up an appointment there to watch that english dubbed copy of Deadly Breaking Sword that we'll probably never see now. 8o 8o 8o 8o 8) 8) 8) 8) :hat :hat :hat :hat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lousy Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 Wow. I didn't know you could do that. I might really have to look into it. It's probably the best chance I'll have at seeing movies like this and Lovers Blades. sevenhooks, are you in the DC area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
