That hit the funny bone, what were the other ones? The lights are on but nobody's home, a few fries short of a happy meal, a few beers short of a six pack, any more? Not the brightest bulb on the tree? hehe luverly oh wait here's another, the wheel is spinning but the hamsters dead [snorts]

I'm interested in fan edits because I used to make my own back in the 80's on tape, I was always tampering with my films. On my later more expensive video recorders I had stereo sliders to play with and when I was taping a big action film that was in mono I'd wait for the action to start and I'd move the sliders about to create a stereo effect, I had my own stereo copy of Terminator 15 years before Cameron remixed the sound for dvd, he proudly boasted.

In the early 90's we had satellite tv for the first time and the German channels were showing all their movies in widescreen, British tv wasn't yet commited to widescreen. So I would record a movie say, Bridge on the River Kwai, off a German channel like RTL+ and than dub it with the English track from my old BBC copy, took a bit of time but it worked. And than dvd came along and everything was in widescreen!
