Hey, wake up. Listen closely: can you hear me? You need to snap out of it – you’ve been in a coma for 3 months.
What's up guys, dycaite, back again (finally, right?) and straight off the bat I wanna give a big thanks to [[User:Kobochat|kobo]] for filling in for me on the previous two notice board posts, much appreciated, dude!
 
Well, it's rolled around to that time of year again, the anniversary of the LMW! I know, I know, we're a few days past the 30th of November, but y'know what they say, better late than never ^__^' Big, big thanks to everybody who has contributed to the site and the community over the past 6 years, I've said it before, but I'll say it again because it's true - the LMW wouldn't be what it is today without you guys, so, from the bottom of my heart, thank you all :)
 
And while we're here, why not go over some recent lost media news? Let's get right into it:
 
* A lost episode of [[Oswald the Lucky Rabbit (partially lost series of Walt Disney shorts; 1927-1928)|''Oswald the Lucky Rabbit'']] has been partially found! Over in Japan, a 16mm home copy of [[Oswald the Lucky Rabbit (partially lost series of Walt Disney shorts; 1927-1928)|"Neck 'n' Neck"]] (cut down to two minutes from its original runtime of five) was found to be in the possession of anime historian Yasushi Watanabe, having purchased it during his high school years, at a toy shop near his home in Osaka, nearly 70 years ago. Watanabe learned of the cartoon's significance after reading David Bossert's 2017 ''Oswald the Lucky Rabbit: The Search for the Lost Disney Cartoons''; it is currently being held by Kobe Planet Film Archive (one of Japan's largest private film collections) and there are reportedly talks of the short potentially being screened for animation scholars at an event in Los Angeles. Whatever the case may be, here's hoping it's made available to the public soon! You can read more about it [https://www.laughingplace.com/w/news/2018/11/15/a-once-lost-oswald-the-lucky-rabbit-cartoon-has-reportedly-been-found-in-japan/ here] and [https://insidethemagic.net/2018/11/oswald-disney-neck-n-neck/ here].


Oh, wait, that was me. Yeah, once again, sorry for the huge delay. No excuses. But it’s here now, and that’s the important part, right? Sure, let’s go with that.
* Collaborator and long time supporter of the LMW, [[Collaborators/blameitonjorge|blameitonjorge]] recently came across a newspaper clipping from the March 27, 1992 issue of the LA Times, featuring some official dialogue from the lost [[Sesame Street "Snuffy's Parents Get a Divorce" (lost episode; 1992)|"Snuffy's Parents Get a Divorce" episode of ''Sesame Street'']]! The clipping in question [https://lostmediawiki.com/images/1/1f/The_Los_Angeles_Times_Fri_Mar_27_1992_.jpg can be found here]; thanks Jorge!


First off: our collaborators have new videos out! [[Collaborators/Bedhead Bernie|Bedhead Bernie]] has a video on Guillermo Del Toro's cancelled adaptation of ''Pinocchio'', [[Collaborators/blameitonjorge|blameitonjorge]] has a video detailing 13 lost horror films, and [[Collaborators/LSuperSonicQ|LSuperSonicQ]] has 3 new lost media videos about the cancelled ''Chowder'' TV movie, ABC’s ''Dot Comedy'', and the infamous [[Sesame Street episode 847 (lost "Wicked Witch of the West" episode; 1976)|Wicked Witch episode]] of ''Sesame Street''. Be sure to check them out above!  
* 50 seconds of previously lost footage from [[King Koopa's Kool Kartoons (partially found live-action "Super Mario Bros" spinoff TV program; 1989-1990)|''King Koopa's Kool Kartoons'']] has emerged! Found by YouTuber Neeel, the footage from the show's 1989 Thanksgiving marathon was made available on his channel back in August, and can be seen via the above embed! While 50 seconds might not seem very significant to some, with a show as rare as this, every bit really does help; thanks Neeel!


Now for the finds! Sorry for the terse writing and also for leaving out more minor finds; if I was as detailed as I wanted, this would be novel-length, but here’s a pre-emptive THANK YOU to everyone involved!:
* YouTuber and LMW contributor SSTEAS recently came into possession of a very rare promotional ''Pepsi Sampler'' PS1 disc from 1997 that was never made commercially available, and of which not even a single image of the slipcase was available online - until now! SSTEAS has graciously scanned his copy and provided the scans in a video on his channel, you can check it out via the above embed; thanks SSTEAS!


*First, an absolutely MASSIVE find: user "21GunShow" (a.k.a. The New Number 2) has ripped 9 DVD-R discs of ''Cinematech'' and 13 DVD-Rs of ''Cinematech: Nocturnal Emissions'', totaling 90+ episodes of each. They can be downloaded [https://archive.org/details/Cinematech here] and [https://archive.org/details/CinematechNocturnalEmissions here], though be aware that they total more than 100 GB.
* YouTuber Eclipse of Fire Productions has recently instigated an effort to have the lost [[Ghost Stories "Am I Beautiful? Kuchisake-onna" (partially found anime episode; 2000)|"Am I Beautiful? Kuchisake-onna" episode of ''Ghost Stories'']] released; this project, dubbed #FinishTheStories, is the kind of initiative I like to see in campaigning for forgotten pieces of media to be unearthed by their respective creators and as such, I figured I'd give Eclipse of Fire Productions and their #FinishTheStories project a shout out here. You can watch a video on the initiative via the above embed!
*There have been a number of '''Cartoon Network'''-related finds, so here’s a mini-section for those:

**4 of the 6 VHS-released episodes of [[Nick News with Linda Ellerbee (partially lost Nickelodeon news program; 1992-2015)|''Nick News with Linda Ellerbee'']] have been uploaded to torrent tracker Myspleen by user blockhead.

What's up guys, dycaite, back again (finally, right?) and straight off the bat I wanna give a big thanks to kobo for filling in for me on the previous two notice board posts, much appreciated, dude!
