Hey guys, dycaite here.
  <div style="width:320px; display:inline-block; margin-right:25px; margin-bottom:0px;">

So, as a lot of you are probably aware (from either the forums, the shoutbox or the Discord), there has been a lot of buzz recently about a supposed leak of the [[The Christine Chubbuck Tape (Lost On-Air Suicide Footage; 1974)|Christine Chubbuck tape]] that turned up in a Top 5 video on YouTube (the video in question [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8agGtFmAJFQ can be found here]). I avoided reporting on this in any official manner until such a time as some concrete proof of either its legitimacy or, more likely, it's illegitimacy had come to light (unlike ''some'' so-called "news" outlets, who practically touted it as hard fact), but I can now confirm that the clip is indeed a fake, nothing more than a well done re-enactment.
  <div style="width:320px; display:inline-block; margin-right:25px; margin-bottom:0px;">
  {{#ev:youtube|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byGT_pp3c68|320x240|center|Lost Media Chronicles episode 37 (<span style="color:orange">'''NSFW'''</span>)}}</div>​


The clip was confirmed fake a couple of days back by Gordon Galbraith, news director of WXLT at the time, who posted a Facebook message outlining the reasons for the tape being fake, a screenshot of which [http://i.imgur.com/FToXkc5.png can be found here].

Randy has also done a short V-Log on the tape and its newly proven illegitimacy, which can be seen above.

So, that's that; case closed. This leaves us with the conclusion that the clip was faked purely for publicity reasons and while I don't necessarily want to incite condemnation of NationSquid, I think most of you would agree that it's a pretty unsavoury thing to have done; here's hoping he finally does the right thing and comes clean about it now instead of carrying on the charade.

Take it easy guys.

What's up guys, I'm dycaite, back with another exciting notice board post! You all know the drill by now, so let's get straight into it:
 
* The highly sought-after 1955 Jean-Luc Godard short ''Une Femme Coquette'' has (remarkably) surfaced! Godard's first attempt at a narrative-driven film (and what is considered to be [http://www.avclub.com/article/neither-lost-nor-found-trail-elusive-icons-rarest--211087 the single rarest piece in his entire filmography]), the 9-minute ''Une Femme Coquette'' was uploaded to YouTube a little over a week ago by YouTuber David Heslin and was [http://www.avclub.com/article/one-worlds-rarest-films-just-showed-youtube-250558 reported on two days after] by The A. V. Club's  Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (which is how we came to learn of the film's unearthing). Huge thanks to both David Heslin for the provision of the film and to Ignatiy Vishnevetsky for making it's presence known! Special thanks also go to Randy for bringing this to my attention, personally. See it for yourself above.
 
* [[User:RandyTheShoegazer|Randy]] has released a new [[Lost_Media_Chronicles|Lost Media Chronicles]] episode! This time he covers the now-infamous [[Him (lost gay pornographic Jesus film; 1974)|70s exploitation film ''Him'']], a pornographic, homosexual film about Jesus (yes, you read that correctly; <span style="color:orange">'''NSFW'''</span> warning should go without saying). Catch it via the above link!
 
* TheGamerFromMars has released a new Internet Mysteries episode, co-written by our own [[User:BedHead_Bernie|BedHead Bernie]], on the [[Cry Baby Lane (found Nickelodeon horror movie; 2000)|once-lost Nickelodeon horror film ''Cry Baby Lane'']]; check it out above (especially if you're unfamiliar with the story, it's definitely one of the most interesting lost-to-found stories out there)!
 
* Several lost scenes from the original ''Ghostbusters'' have been located! The discovery was made known when Ghost Corps, a production company run by Ivan Reitman and Dan Aykroyd (amongst others) put a photo on Facebook showing the three recently found reels (seen above) While at least one of the reels is believed to contain footage that has already come to light (via DVD releases and the like), there is ONE legendary, never-before-seen clip known as "Fort Detmerring Ghost", a scene [http://bloody-disgusting.com/news/3424921/holy-shit-never-seen-ghostbusters-deleted-scenes-unearthed/ depicting a sexual encounter between Ray Stantz and a ghost woman] (and given the "Fort Detmerring" label on the reel, it's very likely the scene in question is contained within). Here's hoping this holy grail of lost ''Ghosbusters'' media is made publicly available soon, not to mention any other hidden gems that might be on those reels!
 
* [[Keep Off My Grass! (found Micky Dolenz comedy film; 1972)|''Keep Off My Grass!'']] has received a DVD release! As of late November of last year, the film has been [https://www.amazon.com/Keep-Off-Grass-Micky-Dolenz/dp/B01LTHYYKY/ available on DVD from Amazon], rendering it available on a large scale and therefore found; thanks go to those involved in the release of said DVD and to [[User:Reynard|Reynard]] for bringing it to our attention!
 
* Spanish copies of the [[Phineas and Ferb: Spot the Diff (Partially found animated TV Special; 2008)|''Phineas and Ferb'' "Spot The Diff" episodes]] have been found! All four episodes [http://www.pyflatino.com/2014/03/especial-ojo-con-las-diferencias.html can be streamed here]; thanks to those involved in getting these episodes out and to BrotherBroCountry for the tipoff!
 
* And finally, on a more sombre note, more proof of the "leaked" Chubbuck tape's illegitimacy has come to light, this time courtesy of Lin, the production manager at WXLT at the time (via the aforementioned news director Gordon Galbraith). Lin reiterated that, while copies of the tape were indeed made ( but later destroyed), he confirmed that the angle on the real video simply does not match the angle seen in NationSquid's recreation (and yes, there is only ONE recorded angle of this incident). I decided to post a note on this followup as there are still a handful of people out there claiming this to be real, but frankly, I think we have enough evidence now to call this one case closed. My sincere and heartfelt thanks go out to Gordon for not only being willing to discuss this sensitive topic with me, but also for getting in touch with Lin to help disprove the fake, I truly appreciate it; all the best.
 
That's all for now; catch you guys next time!

Welcome to The Lost Media Wiki!

This wiki is a community passion project where we detail and attempt to track down (at least, in most cases) pieces of lost or hard to find media; whether it be video, audio or otherwise (of either a fictional or non-fictional nature), if it's completely lost or simply inaccessible to the general public, it belongs here.

Breaking off from its original Wikia hosting, the site was moved to its own, independent host (the process of which was initiated in late 2014 and concluded in mid 2015) and has been steadily growing since its humble beginnings. We encourage any and all connoisseurs of obscure media to join in and contribute; the more the merrier. Happy searching!

What's up guys, I'm dycaite, back with another exciting notice board post! You all know the drill by now, so let's get straight into it:

  • The highly sought-after 1955 Jean-Luc Godard short Une Femme Coquette has (remarkably) surfaced! Godard's first attempt at a narrative-driven film (and what is considered to be the single rarest piece in his entire filmography), the 9-minute Une Femme Coquette was uploaded to YouTube a little over a week ago by YouTuber David Heslin and was reported on two days after by The A. V. Club's Ignatiy Vishnevetsky (which is how we came to learn of the film's unearthing). Huge thanks to both David Heslin for the provision of the film and to Ignatiy Vishnevetsky for making it's presence known! Special thanks also go to Randy for bringing this to my attention, personally. See it for yourself above.
  • Randy has released a new Lost Media Chronicles episode! This time he covers the now-infamous 70s exploitation film Him, a pornographic, homosexual film about Jesus (yes, you read that correctly; NSFW warning should go without saying). Catch it via the above link!
  • Several lost scenes from the original Ghostbusters have been located! The discovery was made known when Ghost Corps, a production company run by Ivan Reitman and Dan Aykroyd (amongst others) put a photo on Facebook showing the three recently found reels (seen above) While at least one of the reels is believed to contain footage that has already come to light (via DVD releases and the like), there is ONE legendary, never-before-seen clip known as "Fort Detmerring Ghost", a scene depicting a sexual encounter between Ray Stantz and a ghost woman (and given the "Fort Detmerring" label on the reel, it's very likely the scene in question is contained within). Here's hoping this holy grail of lost Ghosbusters media is made publicly available soon, not to mention any other hidden gems that might be on those reels!
  • Keep Off My Grass! has received a DVD release! As of late November of last year, the film has been available on DVD from Amazon, rendering it available on a large scale and therefore found; thanks go to those involved in the release of said DVD and to Reynard for bringing it to our attention!
  • And finally, on a more sombre note, more proof of the "leaked" Chubbuck tape's illegitimacy has come to light, this time courtesy of Lin, the production manager at WXLT at the time (via the aforementioned news director Gordon Galbraith).
