Is it time we put together a compilation of interesting PTA related interviews, etc for posterity on DVD?! I'm not talking about PTA sensitive copyrighted stuff like shorts and music videos, but I am talking about the things I have (listed below). If we can find someone trustworthy to helm the project and DVD preparation, then I'm willing to lend my VHS stuff. I'm sure others here can add to the collection.....let me know your thoughts.
Indepedent Focus with PTA
Charlie Rose - Interview 10/30/97
PDL Press Conference - PTA and Sandler - Toronto Film Fest
SNL FANatic (I think this would be OK since it's on TV all the time)
Charlie Rose - Magnolia era interview with PTA
VH1 Special: Magnolia - Hollywood & Vinyl
PTA - Conan appearance - Magnolia era.
I'm sure you guys have more you can add.
I also have PTA related stuff on vhs like:
Julianne Moore - Regis
Aimee Mann - Save Me - Leno
Macy - Craig Kilborne
Aimee Mann - Craig Kilborne
Etc.
Thanks

That would be awesome...I'd definitely buy a copy.
I've always wanted to see the SNL thing...and I never even knew he was on Conan, I must see that.
Anyway, I guess we should do some of the Cannes interviews...those were awesome. Don't have any links or anything.
i can easily convert things to digital directly from tv at broadcast quality, and can also transfer VHS tapes to digital, and from there i can upload them somewhere so whoever is compiling all this stuff into a dvd can use it. if these things are running on tv at any time in the future, i'll capture it live and you'll have a broadcast quality 1st generation version on the dvd, not a 2nd generation vhs version.
i tested it out with the simpsons and this (http://ambulance.planet1337.com/sideshowbob.jpg) is the kind of quality I got.

Sounds good. Do you have any PTA stuff like Independent Focus 1st generation?
Count me in on buying one of these for sure

Not a thing to sell, a thing to share. I think if we can find someone to do it well and cheap, we can probably do it for postage and the cost of burning the DVD-R.....
Greg, do you ever stop giving?
Great idea. So ambitious
Have a burner and DVD Studio Pro... be willing to help out... don't know if I would be able to handle all the authoring, but would be willing to help out however I can.
Quote from: depooterSounds good. Do you have any PTA stuff like Independent Focus 1st generation?
i used to have charlie rose 1st generation but i had to get rid of it. if any pta stuff comes on tv anytime soon, you gotta let me know asap
I have the PTA/Sandler on Charlie Rose, the 12 minute featurette that aired on Bravo and the Independent Focus episodes, all 1st generation, but they were taped in EP mode. If no one has better copies, let me know.
Quote from: MacGuffinI have the PTA/Sandler on Charlie Rose and the Independent Focus episodes, both 1st generation, but they were taped in EP mode. If no one has better copies, let me know.
if you taped them on VHS, they're 2nd generation
:oops: Okay, well, if all else fails, let me know.
Will this DVD have menus?
Quote from: Duck SauceWill this DVD have menus?
LOL. Very Reed Rothchild-like question.
Will this DVD have menus? / Do you have his address?
Great idea. I'd love to see the SNL sketch seeing as we dont get that show here.
Great idea.
Please Please Please can I get a copy of this??
Nice one Greg! It's a fantastic idea!!!
Sounds like a fantastic idea!
PLEASE FIND THE EBERT & THE MOVIES MAGNOLIA CLIP[/size]
That would be great to have on the DVD... it's the best one ever, too... Ebert squaring off with Joyce Kulhawik. I used to listen to the ram file all the time, until it was pulled from the site. Someone PLEASE find that. PLLLLEEEEEAAAAAASSSSSEE.
Who does Joyce Kulhawik write for?

But she's soooo annoying, I can't describe it, everything she says about Magnolia belongs here (http://www.xixax.com/viewtopic.php?t=948).
Ohhhh, that idiot from Hot Ticket (not Maltin)
I have digital copies of all the PTA music videos that I bought legally. none are kazaa downloads or anything like that. i've been trying to make a dvd of them, but it's tough because iDVD doesn't like mpg files. if you guys decide you do want to use them, i could send them to sphinx or greg or somebody.

what format do you have them in? as long as it's not PAL, i can import it with a DV signal and convert it into whatever quality/format you guys want
I have all the pta music videos on DVD from PTA. He told me many years ago to share, share, share, but that was before dvd-burners were widespread. Let's do this first and if it works out, we can do a copy of my music video dvd.....
greg, i wanna kiss you
:kiss:
I'll second that!!! :wink:
I'm guessing the music videos from the DVD will be better quality than the mpegs that have been floating around.. mmmmm....
hasnt pta been on charlie rose like 3 times? i dont like rose, but still, i want to see anything you can find. greg you are such the man. if i was your wife id jump you.
OK, since I find a terrible hate for the girl off Hot Ticket, name not worth saying, I am really wanting to see her review of Magnolia. She fucking called Secretary one of the most original movies she had ever seen. This may not work, but can one contact the production company of Ebert's show and ask to buy this specific episode on vhs? I think they do this for like $30 or something. It would be worth it.

you said that on the old boards and then everyone was like 'hey where are the music video dvds now it's been a year' and i was like oh it's coming quite soon and cj was like what? and i was like jus' feedin' the dogs, seejay and he was like you so crazah, sphinx
this time you actually will get them, kiddies
this kind of generous, altruistic gesture reminds me of the good old days of the net, before the bigwigs got involved.
long live fandom.
:turn-l:
man...if I could have the music videos on DVD...ah...
paaaah, for the past week and a half i've been trying to get all the pta music videos onto dvd. it's just not working out for me. i got fiona's across the universe from the pleasantville dvd, save me from the magnolia dvd, try from the boogie nights dvd, here we go from the pdl sdtrck, and limp, paper bag, and fast as you can from the european paper bag single. the last three are in pal format and not as high quality as the others since they're only mpeg-1 (here we go is also not as high quality and is a mov file). this shit's impossible. I'm about to give up. is it worth it to keep on going, or should i just wait until forever to get greg's dvd?
Could we please include the "Boogie Nights" trailer(s)?
I've got it... but it ain't the best quality
Still very watchable
I used to have the VOB but I deleted it :(
I think I speak for everyone when I ask; will the widescreen parts be anamorphic?
Depends on the source doesn't it?

It really is great... She keeps whining, "it doesn't make sense!" and Ebert keeps saying "YES IT DOES and THIS IS WHY" and she says "But the frogs!" and Ebert says "yes, this is why the frogs" and she says "I don't get it" and Ebert cries in frustration. Great stuff.
Quote from: DionySuSDepends on the source doesn't it?
Cant you make letterboxed into anamorphic by cropping it somehow?
Holy shit JB, I remember seeing that when it originally aired. I completely forgot about it until now because I only watched it once. I remember thinking, even way back then when just getting into movies, "Fuck, she had the mind of a 9th grader in understanding movies. Even I know what it means." It was truly sweet and she needs to be shot in the foot and restricted from covering the wound only to die a terrible death as the foot ever so slowly bleeds to death. God will forbid her entrance into Heaven by saying this, "What the fuck? You didn't get the meaning of the frogs in Magnolia? Didn't you read the bible!?"
A sense of happiness has come over me now.

well, i successfully made the music videos dvd. turned out pretty cool. used idvd2 to make moving menus... pretty snazzy, eh?
is this interview/clip disc happening or what?
Make me one...
OK. I'm still waiting for someone with DVD experience to step up to the plate, collect all the materials and get rolling??????

Here's the mp3:
http://tvplex.go.com/buenavista/ebertandthemovies/mp3/Magnolia.mp3
Everyone should listen to this.
Many thanks, JB. Great stuff, or shall I say, great bad stuff. Ebert was great in pointing out the thing Anderson has going for him that I'm not sure any other director these days has, and thats pure freedom in his films. Its a hard thing to get and even if you may like other directors, you still can kinda predict or assume what they will do next or how they will do it. The female critic with the last name that is hard to spell only feeds for the encouragement of by the books filmmaking that everyone is being dragged along. It's just that some can spin interesting stories along the way.
~rougerum
ebert is so awesome.
thanks JB, i can now post in sphinx's enemy thread!
grrr... i tell u, i'm a pretty angry person, but hey- u can talk shit all day about me, my mom, whatever, its all peanuts in comparison to someone saying stupid shit like this about movies, especially this movie. i mean honestly, i really wish physical pain on this woman.
I wouldn't go so far as to praise the erratic and often virtually illiterate Ebert, but he comes off very well in this case. But the other woman was, what, a local radio or TV critic? Those people are paid for their idiocy.
The thing that pissed me off the most was nothing about the frogs. It was a local (Portland, OR) critic calling the "Wise Up" sequence "something out of Cop Rock." So many things wrong with that statement. I never trusted that reviewer's opinion again (though I should've been forewarned when he gave Saving Private Ryan five stars... out of four. What an asshole).
Ebert has a love, passion, and appreciation for movies that always shows, no matter how literate he is. This is a man who took the torch from Pauline Kael, and made film criticism into a celebrity -- and he did it sincerely. It's so not cool to hack Ebert.

I agree, but it takes more than love, passion, and appreciation to make a good writer. Kael passed her torch to no-one, though there were a great many who angled for it... I do respect the qualities you mention, and he may be responsible for praising a fair number of under-the-carpet films to a mainstream American audience, but when it comes to Ebert as a
writer... well, I often find myself rolling my eyes far, far back into my head.
I always knew Ebert was not the best of writers, but with the thoughts he gave me in devloping my own taste, I didn't think the writing was that important. The more and more I grow, the more I am disagreeing with Ebert but on the whole, I would say my taste is generally best with his.
The critic that is the most challenging for me and the very best writer though is Stanley Kauffmann. Sometimes I think he is completely wrong, but sometimes I think he says things no one else will observe on a movie and be of genius because he will be exactly correct. Kauffmann is the one now who is forwarding my understanding of the movies and giving me the example of how to write really great reviews in one a few paragraphs for each movie. You name the movie, the guy likely didn't like it, but he always makes you think over your own reasons in the most challeging way which is best for me. His big list of bad films from 2001 reads as everyone's top ten best list, with notable exceptions like In the Bedroom and Mulholland Drive, which he loved. The most ballsy film critic and prolly the most interested in the art of it all.
~rougerum
Sarris wrote great reviews. So did Schrader, and Godard. Reading anything by these guys make me excited, even when they rip a film I like. Sontag wrote some wonderful stuff, too.
I got to write movie reviews for the local paper. I panned Night Of The Hunter, which I can't stand. I didn't get anymore articles after that.
Ooops.... digression.
What's the status of the PTA dvd?
not to be a party pooper, but if no one is going to step forward, it looks like this project will not get off the ground...
sorry....maybe down the road...

...which just goes to show it's an editorial flaw that's partly to blame for bringing down the quality of movie reviews. Not that I don't like
Night of the Hunter (Agee was quite a well-known film writer, too), but you have got to give your writers their own voice and let them keep it. As a freelance writer, I've experienced the same thing you have... stop toeing the part line even for a second, and they find ways to silence you.
I am disappointed about the PTA thing... does this mean the actual short itself will not be released, or just that DVDs will be unavailable?

Quote from: godardianbut when it comes to Ebert as a writer... well, I often find myself rolling my eyes far, far back into my head.
Are you talking about his Pulitzer prize winning, unconventional, enrapturing coversational prose?
Yeah, for the most part I like Ebert.
Besides his anti-Lynch stance (with the exception of Mul. Dr.) Ebert is great
My mom used to read my Ebert reviews, and then once I could read myself I became addicted. He's one of my biggest inspirations, actually. I think he's a truly great writer, and even when I disagree with him, he makes it easy to see where he's coming from (most of the time -- his reviews of Raising Arizona comes to mind, and Spawn). One of my dreams is to read his review of one of my films someday.
Quote from: Jeremy BlackmanQuote from: godardianbut when it comes to Ebert as a writer... well, I often find myself rolling my eyes far, far back into my head.
Are you talking about his Pulitzer prize winning, unconventional, enrapturing coversational prose?
No, more his plodding, sluggish plot summaries and the distinct impression of light bulbs going off over his head all the time.
For Pulitzer Prize-winning critics, I prefer Jay Sherman. Of all the Pulitzer prize winners, only Eudora Welty can best him at a belching contest. :lol:
Speaking of the Pulitzers, I'm now officially ashamed to be seen out of doors with my copy of Jeffrey Eugenides's
Middlesex, lest anyone think I scurried out to nab it merely because it won some prize. Thanks a lot, Pulitzer committee.
It is a really good book, though. Has anyone read it? I wonder if they'll make it into a movie?
Quote...sluggish plot summaries...
That is the only thing about Ebert I dislike. I cannot stand it when he does a quick run down of the plot. Often it is a paragraph that simply
does not need to be told. His best reviews are the ones that just talk about aspects of the movie and leave the plot completely untouched.
Quote from: godardiansluggish plot summaries
I also have to agree with you about that.... :yabbse-sad:....
why do you guys read reviews?
Quote from: cecil b. dementedwhy do you guys read reviews?
To mold our fragile minds and fabricate opinions through osmosis.
If you guys are going to talk about Ebert's writing, you have to include:
(https://xixax.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimages.amazon.com%2Fimages%2FP%2F6302732972.01.LZZZZZZZ.jpg&hash=b9504e53bc82d5a542078e3fd96b0e11282a3e82)
Yeah!! This comes to our local arthouse this month, in a restored print. I will get to see it for the first time. Ebert rocks!!
When asked why he hired Ebert, Russ Meyer said: "he likes big tits, I like big tits, it seemed like a good idea". (I think I'm paraphrasing a bit)
Kick ass. Russ Meyer should hire me.
when i was trying to get into fear x at sundance ebert was standing outside the theater--he seemed kind of pissed -- i started shooting the shit with him -- they said the film was over-sold and they wouldnt give him a seat, he was standing around griping outside-- i found that kind of sad -- he gets no respect.
i have a ton of respect for that man. his reviews are always very fair (plus i usually agree with him), and he just seems like such a fan sometimes (read some of the stuff he wrote about, say -- minority report.)
What are the chances of getting The Flagpole Special on this DVD? I'd kill to see it. Also PTA has mentioned in interviews that he, John C., and PSH shot COPS-like videos while waiting for the whole Hard Eight/Sydney debacle to pan out. Claims it also provided stuff for Jim Kurring character. What are the chances of getting that on the DVD?

flagpole special was screened maybe once or twice, but no bootlegs have been released otherwise. the COPS-like videos are probably in a box in pta's closet somewhere, and unless you know how to open a closet, i doubt it'll be on the dvd.
I figured as much, just wishful thinking I guess...
I'd volunteer for the project, except for the fact that I have to wonder about the legality of this.
I mean, does Paul really want this stuff floating around?
Michael?!!! It's a collection of interviews, not short films. I think it's perfecty harmless..

whose butt do i have to start kissing now to get a copy of this?

once you've put it all together, will there be a limited run of these DVDs? Maybe you should put a sticky up, see how many people are interested..
Also, for transfer of postage fees, will you have a paypal-esque service? I'm based in Japan, but please don't discriminate!
Many thanks.

I will also surely pay (or reimburse, whatever)...
I can see me forgetting this thread, though, and these beautiful DVDs being gone forever by the time I think to reread it...
aw
This thread should be stickied or something so people don't forget about it. And, me, I'd definitely pay for shipping or whathaveya, to get my hands on this collection. Sounds great. :)
Please remember: We are talking about collecting the interviews, no short films. hopefully, we'll have some news to share on this in the next few weeks...

How's this thing going? It's been a couple months. Hope it hasn't been forgotten...
We cancelled it once we found, and then confirmed, PTA is not really that great.

"- Flagpole Special- The Dirk Diggler Story- Cigarettes & Coffee" i think you will be very disapointed when you see them. Im sure they will not but little Boogie Nights. But i would love to see the Conan interview.
Coffee and Cigarettes is great... you're out of you gourd.
so what's the deal with this thingy? Is it still happening? I want one, and offer any help I can be in the process...I have finally become a DVD burning guru, well, sorta....but I have 2 burners at home and 1 at work, as well as too much time on my hands. Let's get this thang cookin'!!!

ah, I didn't realize this idea was just started in Aug., feels longer ago. My apoligizes for being antsy...carry on.
The idea's been around since April, actually. At least, that's when the thread started. I'd just like a straight answer if this thing's happening or not. I'd do what I could to help, as would most other people wanting to see it happen. Even paying costs for a copy for myself, which is probably a given anyway.
So?
yes. it's happening. These things take time. We got lots of material to transfer, menus to create, trying to squeeze as much as possible on one dvd, then finding someone who can replicate multiple copies, accept payment, ship them out, etc., etc.
be patient, it will get done and will be worth the wait.
thanks

Also: You have 82 posts.... that's cool.
I'd love to get in on this. Looking forward to it one day happening.
But I'd like to add an idea for the DVD:
How about ya'll include the radio interviews? While the audio's running you could have a stills gallery specific to what they're talking about. For example, when they're talking about a specific scene in Magnolia, show stills from that scene to better illustrate what they're discussing.
Just a thought.
that wont take an even way longer time.
isnt there a radio interview where burt reynolds gets really pissed at paul or something?
Quote from: themodernage02that wont take an even way longer time.
Oh, like we don't have time to waste anyway.
I've haven't heard anything in a while....sphinxy, what's the latest. I'll have a crowe one complete in the next few weeks....
Since every other post in this thread is "Is this still happening", one more can't hurt:

I run on a apple G4 and DVD studio pro, i know that isn't to speical in today's market for film making production, but i have the time to help.
:?:
it just wasn't meant to be.
If this is indeed dead, then I need my materials back ASAP. It's been long enough and I can pursue other avenues to complete the project...
Please contact me and send them back. no hard feelings.
thanks
so there was some actual exchanging of materials?
hmmm.
can someone makes copies of the shorts on videotape, then?
i just want to see them. i guess they were made before dvd was even popular anyway.
