| | |||
| | |||
You guys didn't really think that I would take all our hard work and just flush it down the toilet, did you? Hope I didn't get you all too worried, I figured the majority of you would have worked it out, given the date! ^_^ | |||
Anyway, you'll be pleased to know that we're back to regular wiki business; thanks for not freaking out too much and for all the concerned (and sometimes derogatory) Shoutbox comments; it's touching to know that people care about this place so much. Sorry if we dragged this out a little longer than necessary, we just wanted to fool as many people as possible. | |||
For the record, I have no plans of ever relinquishing ownership of the wiki, commercialising it, or changing it from its current model. | |||
'Til next time, | |||

<div class="alert alert-success">ENGLISH SUBTITLES FOR [[Cruel Ghost Legend (1968 Japanese Horror Film)|CRUEL GHOST LEGEND]] ARE NOW AVAILABLE! (Added 29 Mar '14)</div> | |||

|description1 =''Cruel Ghost Legend'' (now with optional English subtitles). | |||
}} | |||
''Cruel Ghost Legend'', the recently found, obscure Japanese horror film from 1968 can now be enjoyed by English audiences, thanks to the creation and provision of English subtitles by cinemageddon.net users Scannon (who translated the film) and lordretsudo (who timed the subs)! | |||
The subtitles in question have been added to the ''Cruel Ghost Legend'' upload on our YouTube channel and can be accessed via the closed captioning options, or, alternatively, both the subtitle file and original 6GB VHSRip (along with a 660MB compression of said VHSRip) are available at cinemageddon.net (mega.co.nz mirrors to come soon; I've been meaning to mirror this film for a while, but haven't had the chance to upload the massive, uncompressed source file). | |||
Big thanks to both Scannon and lordretsudo for creating and making these subtitles available! | |||

Wow, what a month! And with no signs of slowing down, yet another piece of lost media (or rather, several pieces) has come to light in the form of nine of the eleven filmed episodes of the ''Emeril'' sitcom, including two that were never even aired! | |||
Big, big thanks go out to collector Vinnie Rattolle who has been kind enough to upload his personal copies to YouTube for all to see; special mention to Shoutbox user shitasticularthesquel for originally bringing the uploads to our attention. | |||
While two additionally filmed, unaired episodes (ie. Episodes 10 and 11, "The Retreat" and "My Grandmother's Cornbread", respectively) have yet to see the light of day, this is an outstanding development nonetheless, considering that not a single episode was publicly available until now. Thanks again, Vinnie! | |||

<div class="alert alert-success">THE WAIT IS OVER; [[Garage: Bad Dream Adventure (found Japanese video game; 1999)|GARAGE]] IS HERE! (Added 18 Mar '14; updated 21 Mar '14)</div> | |||

Yep, you read correctly; ''Garage'' has arrived! For those who haven't been following the situation over the past month and a bit, a copy of the game was recently put up on Yahoo Auctions Japan and was subsequently snapped up by hg101.proboards.com user cc0 (aka Mid Heavens in my Garagesan !!OUMLpH0sZpD on [https://boards.4chan.org/vr/res/1434726 4chan's /vr/ board]). After a lengthy trip from Japan, to the U.S., to Australia (due to potential issues regarding Australian customs), the game arrived today and has been ripped for all to download! | |||
You can get the CloneCD image [http://www.mediafire.com/download/amp815a37k6v71s/garage.7z here], or if you're a Mac user, you can get the .dmg file [http://www.mediafire.com/download/4akuw3p5bmvmk3u/garagemac.7z here]. | |||
HUGE thanks to cc0 for spending a whopping 77,000 yen (roughly 1,000 AUD after processing fees and the like) on this highly sought-after work of art and for freely sharing it around so quickly! You really pulled through for us and I for one am immensely grateful. | |||
On a technical note, I've had success running this game in Windows XP SP1, through VirtualBox, though some tinkering was required. If you need any assistance on getting ''Garage'' up and running, feel free to shoot me a line and I'll happily assist wherever possible. | |||
'''UPDATE 21 Mar '14:''' Following the game's upload, cc0 has also graciously provided a collection of scans and photographs (of the manual, box, case inlay, disc and included map), which can be obtained [https://mega.co.nz/#!uYJz1TRR!FbQ85VXnV_4Pq-iaAFEdlDU0VfAkaddHG4duyH1vaw0 here].

OK guys, today's Notice Board post is (as I previously suggested) a big one, so bear with me: | |||
* [[Cruel Ghost Legend (1968 Japanese Horror Film)|''Cruel Ghost Legend'']] has been found! Huge thanks to an online acquaintance of mine (who wishes to remain anonymous) for tracking down a VHS copy of the film, ripping and subsequently providing it to me! The film is unsubtitled as of this point in time, but I have managed to track down a karagarga.net user who is willing to transcribe it for us if we are able to raise a bounty of 200GB upload credit on said website (more details to come later, along with the uncompressed 6GB source file). | |||
* A complete episode of [[JBVO & Viva Las Bravo (Missing 2000-2001 and 2005-2006 Block Interstitials)|''JBVO'']] has been found, cartoons and all! It was originally uploaded to myspleen.org early last month by user retroccn as part of a January 2001 "Cartoon Cartoon Fridays" block, but has recently been reuploaded as a separate video, after retroccn read that the series was somewhat sought-after here on the wiki. Thanks retroccn! Direct download mirror to source file available [https://www.mediafire.com/?m9k3yikypx0o5dg here]. | |||
* Three [[Whatever Happened to... Robot Jones? (Rare/Unreleased Original Voice Audio and Unfinished/Unknown Episodes)|''Whatever Happened to... Robot Jones?'']] episodes have surfaced in their original dub! They were uploaded by YouTuber CartoonArchive late last month; thanks go out to CartoonArchive (for the upload) and to Allanvideohq (for letting us know). | |||
* Several pieces of footage from the ''KaBlam!'' episode [[KaBlam! "KaFun!" (Found Episode of Animated Series; 1999)|"KaFun!"]] have seemingly been uncovered! These pieces of footage consist of a title screen from a supposed Japanese airing of the episode, along with four segments which are alleged to have aired during said episode. Thanks to all those involved in uncovering this information and bringing it to our attention. | |||
* The Alan Parsons Project's unreleased album [[The Alan Parsons Project 'The Sicilian Defence' (found album; 1979)|''The Sicilian Defence'']] is receiving an official release! The album is set to be released at the end of the month as part of a new Alan Parsons Project boxset, ''The Complete Albums Collection''. Thanks to ThatShoegazer for bringing this news to light. | |||
* A bootleg (ie. photographed) screenshot from the ''Johnny Bravo'' prototype short [[Mess O' Blues (partially found "Johnny Bravo" prototype animated short; 1993)|''Mess O' Blues'']] has been unearthed! Thanks to Uncle Sporkums for bringing this to everyone's attention and, of course, to the source of the photo (the identify of whom currently eludes me). | |||
* Finally, backup copies of episodes 2 and 5 of [[The Popcorn Kid (found episodes; 1987)|''The Popcorn Kid'']] have been uploaded to the wiki's YouTube account, following the suspension of mantronix4ever's account (to which the videos were originally uploaded). | |||
Well, that was a mouthful. Don't forget about the ''Trove'' alpha key competition; each Discluded article fixed up will earn you an entry into the draw, with no maximum amount of entries (see the Old Notice Board Posts page for further information). Good luck to everyone who participates! | |||

|description1 ="Let's Play Trove Alpha" episode 1, courtesy of YouTuber StoneLegion.com. | |||
}} | |||
[http://www.trovegame.com/ ''Trove''] is a recently released sandbox voxel MMO by Trion Worlds, currently in closed alpha. I've been playing it for several months now and have been having a great time. It's kind of like a cross between ''Minecraft'' and ''Cube World'' (both of which I am also particularly fond of, so naturally this game was right up my alley), with a bunch of its own original ideas to boot. | |||
Now, why am I telling you this? Let me explain... Over the past few months, the frequency of sumbitted articles has increased significantly, so much so that I am no longer able to maintain them all by myself. A lot of the newer articles need either grammatical/formatting fixing, or simply need more content. These articles are largely things that should have probably been included in the Discluded category, though I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt and include them in the listing anyway (reserving the Discluded category for only the most incomplete of articles). | |||
So, here is the deal: anyone who competently fixes up a discluded article, as of this point in time, will go into a randomly drawn prize pool to win a ''Trove'' alpha key (it just so happens that I have a spare and am willing to give it away for the benefit of the wiki). The more articles you fix up, the more times you will be entered into the draw; I'll leave this offer open for at least a week, with a set draw date to be announced soon. Thanks to anyone who decides to help and good luck! | |||
P.S. I haven't forgotten about the pieces of recently found media that still need a Notice Board post; a BIG one is coming soon. | |||

Revision as of 16:01, 30 July 2019
18 HD-SOURCED EPISODES OF YOURI, THE SPACEMAN HAVE COME TO LIGHT! (Added 27 Dec 2014) |
---|
Thanks to generous MySpleen user ChupaX, 18 episodes of Youri, the Spaceman are now available (in English dub), as recorded by said user from Animania HD! MySpleen registration is currently open and freeleech is active, so if ever there was a perfect time to grab these, it's now! Alternatively, you can watch all 18 episodes above via Dailymotion. |
LMW STAFFER THATSHOEGAZER'S NEW MUSIC REVIEW SHOW (Added 21 Dec 2014) |
---|
The first episode of ThatShoegazer's new music review show 2Beats+ has been released, check it out! |
MOXY'S FIRST TV APPEARANCE PARTIALLY UNEARTHED/THE GLOVE AND BOOTS "YOUR AD HERE" VIDEO RECOVERED! (Added 16 Nov 2014) | ||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Here's hoping this resurgence of found media continues :) |
(FINALLY) ANOTHER NOTICE BOARD POST! (Added 16 Nov 2014) | |||
---|---|---|---|
Hey guys! So, as you are all likely aware, it's been nearly 2 months since the last notice board post and after some rocky happenings, things are once again getting back on track; today I have a few little goodies for you, as well as a couple of things that we overlooked for several months:
Well, I don't have a heck of a lot more to report on at the moment, although, as I have previously alluded to, I am currently planning a BIG event for next year... Keep an eye on our social media pages for future info ;) |
ANOTHER MIXED BAG OF DISCOVERIES AND GOOD NEWS! (Added 25 Sep 2014) | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Looks like we have another mixed bag of found media and news on our hands, so let's jump straight into it:
In other news:
That's all for now; thanks again to all parties involved in the unearthing of the aforementioned pieces of media! |
YET ANOTHER UNEARTHED LITTLE SHOP EPISODE HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION! (Added 23 Sep 2014) |
---|
Just 8 days since our last notice board post on the recently uncovered Little Shop episode "I Loathe a Parade", it has been pointed out to us (by CG'er Joeyhorrorfan) that episode 4 of Little Shop, "Unfair Science" was uploaded to private torrent tracker tv-vault.me all the way back in November of 2012, courtesy of ripper/uploader Comixbear! It really makes you wonder how much other unearthed stuff is floating around out there, having passed us by... |
ANOTHER LITTLE SHOP EPISODE HAS COME TO LIGHT! (Added 15 Sep 2014) |
---|
Earlier this month, an episode of Little Shop (an obscure 1991 animated series based on the film The Little Shop of Horrors) appeared on YouTube, courtesy of Betamax King (who presumably sourced the episode from a Betamax recording)! This new addition (ie. episode 6, "I Loathe a Parade") makes for a total of 2 episodes accounted for, of 13. |
MORE CHEEZ TV FOOTAGE HAS SURFACED! (Added 13 Sep 2014) |
---|
So far, September has been a pretty quiet month around here, which is why I am happy to announce that an online acquaintance of mine, Damien Keizer, has come forward as having several pieces of Cheez TV footage taped on VHS (after I posted a want ad of sorts on the Australian Vintage Video Facebook group) and has since ripped and mailed me one of the recordings! |
PRESENTING... FIREWORKS SAFETY - PARENTS! (Added 15 Aug 2014) |

A FEW POINTS OF INTEREST... (Added 08 Aug 2014) |
---|
Hey guys; sorry for my absence of late, I recently came down with a vicious flu that just wouldn't let up, though it has since subdued (for now, at least). So, what's been going on in the meantime? Quite a lot, actually:
Well, that's all for now; as I suggested, keep an eye out for further info on this month's surprise unveiling, it's gunna be pretty awesome! |
REMINDER: THE 3 T-SHIRT GIVEAWAYS ARE STILL UP FOR GRABS! (Added 25 Jul 2014) |
---|
So, for those who are unaware (or perhaps even for those who have simply forgotten), a few months back, I announced that I was conducting a t-shirt giveaway and that 3 of the wiki's YouTube channel's first 1000 subscribers (once that number of subscribers was reached) would be selected at random and would subsequently be awarded a t-shirt of their chosen size and colour. |
THE FULL DRAGON BALL Z MOVIE OVERVIEW SPECIAL HAS BEEN FOUND! (Added 10 Jul 2014) |
---|
Last night, while hunting for lost media, I was lucky enough to come across a download link to the entire Dragon Ball Z: Movie Overview Special, via Polish Dragon Ball fansite dbnao.net's forums! |
THE MONSTER PARTY FAMICOM PROTOTYPE ROM HAS BEEN RELEASED! (Added 09 Jul 2014) |
---|
Late last week, Mike over at nintendoplayer.com was anonymously emailed a ROM of the highly sought-after Famicom prototype of Monster Party, along with the instruction "for immediate release". After getting permission (out of courtesy) from Mark and Matt Nolan, who own the second known cart of the prototype and who had plans to release reproduction carts (and who, suspiciously, would neither confirm nor deny whether they had any part in the ROM's anonymous leaking), Mike has provided a download link to the ROM for all to enjoy! |
VHSRIPS OF VEGGIETALES' TAKE 38 AND MR. CUKE'S SCREEN TEST HAVE BOTH BEEN MADE AVAILABLE ON YOUTUBE! (Added 05 Jul 2014) | ||
---|---|---|
Thanks to LMW newcomer Gryphoemia, (also known by her YouTube account, olivermuffinsailor) both VeggieTales’ "Take 38" and "Mr. Cuke's Screen Test" have been ripped from VHS and made available online! |
TIM BURTON'S HANSEL AND GRETEL HAS BEEN FOUND! (Added 13 Jun 2014) |
---|
For a while now, the only way to watch Tim Burton's Hansel and Gretel, was via a low quality, handheld bootleg taken during a Tim Burton exhibition and subsequently uploaded to YouTube (albeit in incomplete form). But now, a complete VHSRip from the legendary lost film's one and only TV airing in 1983 has been uploaded to Cinemageddon by Ricsie! The intro with Vincent Price is missing, but the movie itself is all there. This VHSRip, plus the addition of the bootlegged Vincent Price intro means that Hansel and Gretel has officially been found in its entirety! |
FULL AMERICAN HISTORY X WORKPRINT NOW AVAILABLE! (Added 11 Jun '14) |
---|
For those who haven't been lurking the Shoutbox of late, I was recently given the opportunity to purchase a bootleg DVD of the full American History X workprint (from a party that wishes to remain anonymous); of course, I took them up on their offer and have since ripped, re-encoded and uploaded it to mega.co.nz for all to see. Enjoy! |
ATTENTION: LOCKDOWN IS OFFICIALLY IN EFFECT (Added 05 Jun '14) |
---|
It's unfortunate that it's come to this, but something really needed to be done about the amount of poorly written articles with total disregard for the article creation rules that are becoming more and more frequent. Below you'll find an FAQ outlining exactly how the lockdown will work. If you are an article contributor, READ THIS CAREFULLY! A word from ThatShoegazer on the matter: |
CARDS OF DEATH IS BEING RE-RELEASED ON VHS NEXT MONTH! (Added 28 May '14) |
---|
That's right folks; the astronomically rare film Cards of Death is finally getting a re-release, on the very format it was shot on, VHS! The release is the first of four planned, yearly offerings from Bleeding Skull Video, a new VHS label created by Joseph A. Ziemba and Zack Carlson, (from bleedingskull.com), in collaboration with Mondo Video. |
45 MINUTES OF CANZO EMPYREAN HAVE BEEN UPLOADED TO YOUTUBE! (Added 18 May '14; updated 21 May '14) |
---|
A large chunk of Justin Fornal's bizarre underground G.I. Joe film adaptation Canzo Empyrean has appeared online for the first time, courtesy of YouTuber Joshua Kane! It was uploaded exactly two months ago, on March 18th and has gone largely unnoticed until now. It is unclear whether this is the entire film or not (it's hard to determine much, due to the film's incredibly bizarre nature). In any case, this is an outstanding development! |
BLACK ANGEL IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR DIGITAL PRE-ORDER! (Added 08 May '14) |
---|
A couple of days ago, Roger Christian made the announcement (via coffeewithkenobi.com and Twitter) that Black Angel is now officially available for digital pre-order on iTunes, with a release date of May 20th! Without wanting to sound too much like an advertisement, it's really quite affordable, (considering its historical significance), at just $2.99 for the HD version and $1.99 for the SD one. |
KEEP LEFT'S SELF TITLED ALBUM NOW AVAILABLE! (Added 27 Apr '14) |
---|
HomeStarRunnerTron, after recently discovering an eBay auction for the rare, out-of-print, self titled Keep Left album (featuring Dan Povenmire, co-creator of Phineas & Ferb), promptly snatched it up and has since provided a rip for download (complete with scans)! |
AN EPISODE OF TOULI HAS BEEN FOUND! (Added 26 Apr '14) |
---|
Touli article author The Reynard recently discovered and brought to our attention that an episode of the French stop-motion animated series had been uploaded to Persian video sharing site zamanema.com! The episode has since been mirrored on YouTube, (as well as mega.co.nz), courtesy of PepsiWithCoke (aka bearfan121) and can be seen above. |
ANOTHER YOURI EPISODE FOUND/T-SHIRT GIVEAWAY! (Added 18 Apr '14) | ||
---|---|---|
Last night, while going through some old VHS tapes, I came across a copy of the J-Horror Dark Water, as recorded by myself in 2005 off Australia's Special Broadcasting Service (SBS). To my surprise, the tape also included an additional "Happy Tree Friends and Friends" block. Lo and behold, said block contained another episode of Youri, the Spaceman! I'm a bit puzzled as to how I managed to miss this one for so long; I could have sworn that I'd already gone through all my old tapes scouring for episodes, but what'dya know. |
A TRACK FROM DEFTONES' 2008 ALBUM EROS HAS BEEN OFFICIALLY RELEASED! (Added 14 Apr '14) |
---|
The track, titled "Smile", was recently uploaded to Chino Moreno's official YouTube account to commemorate the one year anniversary of bassist Chi Cheng's passing. In addition to this gesture, Moreno also tweeted a link to the video with the message "Chi, We miss you today and everyday. -deftones". |
LOST MEDIA WIKI T-SHIRTS AND HOODIES ARE NOW AVAILABLE! (Added 09 Apr '14) |
---|
Hey everybody, just a quick Notice Board post today to let you all know that Lost Media Wiki t-shirts (not unlike this one) and hoodies are now officially available via redbubble.com! |
THE ALAN PARSONS PROJECT'S "THE SICILIAN DEFENCE" IS NOW AVAILABLE! (Added 05 Apr '14) |
---|
A little under a week ago, The Alan Parsons Project's previously long-unreleased album The Sicilian Defence was officially made available as a part of The Complete Albums Collection, an Alan Parsons Project boxset, as released on the 31st of March; said album has since (inevitably) found its way to YouTube. Alan Parsons himself has stated on several occasions that the album was created with very little effort or enthusiasm, as the result of a contractual dispute between the band and Arista Records, (resulting in the album being shelved in the first place), so don't expect too much from this. Having said that, it's certainly a fascinating listen given its history and the fact that it has not been heard by the general public in the 30+ years since its initial recording. |
You guys didn't really think that I would take all our hard work and just flush it down the toilet, did you? Hope I didn't get you all too worried, I figured the majority of you would have worked it out, given the date! ^_^
Anyway, you'll be pleased to know that we're back to regular wiki business; thanks for not freaking out too much and for all the concerned (and sometimes derogatory) Shoutbox comments; it's touching to know that people care about this place so much. Sorry if we dragged this out a little longer than necessary, we just wanted to fool as many people as possible.
For the record, I have no plans of ever relinquishing ownership of the wiki, commercialising it, or changing it from its current model.
'Til next time, -Your friendly neighbourhood dycaite
Cruel Ghost Legend, the recently found, obscure Japanese horror film from 1968 can now be enjoyed by English audiences, thanks to the creation and provision of English subtitles by cinemageddon.net users Scannon (who translated the film) and lordretsudo (who timed the subs)!
The subtitles in question have been added to the Cruel Ghost Legend upload on our YouTube channel and can be accessed via the closed captioning options, or, alternatively, both the subtitle file and original 6GB VHSRip (along with a 660MB compression of said VHSRip) are available at cinemageddon.net (mega.co.nz mirrors to come soon; I've been meaning to mirror this film for a while, but haven't had the chance to upload the massive, uncompressed source file).
Big thanks to both Scannon and lordretsudo for creating and making these subtitles available!
Wow, what a month! And with no signs of slowing down, yet another piece of lost media (or rather, several pieces) has come to light in the form of nine of the eleven filmed episodes of the Emeril sitcom, including two that were never even aired!
Big, big thanks go out to collector Vinnie Rattolle who has been kind enough to upload his personal copies to YouTube for all to see; special mention to Shoutbox user shitasticularthesquel for originally bringing the uploads to our attention.
While two additionally filmed, unaired episodes (ie. Episodes 10 and 11, "The Retreat" and "My Grandmother's Cornbread", respectively) have yet to see the light of day, this is an outstanding development nonetheless, considering that not a single episode was publicly available until now. Thanks again, Vinnie!
P.S. Incase you happened to have missed the last Notice Board post, Garage is now available!
Yep, you read correctly; Garage has arrived! For those who haven't been following the situation over the past month and a bit, a copy of the game was recently put up on Yahoo Auctions Japan and was subsequently snapped up by hg101.proboards.com user cc0 (aka Mid Heavens in my Garagesan !!OUMLpH0sZpD on 4chan's /vr/ board). After a lengthy trip from Japan, to the U.S., to Australia (due to potential issues regarding Australian customs), the game arrived today and has been ripped for all to download!
You can get the CloneCD image here, or if you're a Mac user, you can get the .dmg file here.
HUGE thanks to cc0 for spending a whopping 77,000 yen (roughly 1,000 AUD after processing fees and the like) on this highly sought-after work of art and for freely sharing it around so quickly! You really pulled through for us and I for one am immensely grateful.
On a technical note, I've had success running this game in Windows XP SP1, through VirtualBox, though some tinkering was required. If you need any assistance on getting Garage up and running, feel free to shoot me a line and I'll happily assist wherever possible.
UPDATE 21 Mar '14: Following the game's upload, cc0 has also graciously provided a collection of scans and photographs (of the manual, box, case inlay, disc and included map), which can be obtained here. Thanks again, cc0!
OK guys, today's Notice Board post is (as I previously suggested) a big one, so bear with me:
- Cruel Ghost Legend has been found! Huge thanks to an online acquaintance of mine (who wishes to remain anonymous) for tracking down a VHS copy of the film, ripping and subsequently providing it to me! The film is unsubtitled as of this point in time, but I have managed to track down a karagarga.net user who is willing to transcribe it for us if we are able to raise a bounty of 200GB upload credit on said website (more details to come later, along with the uncompressed 6GB source file).
- A complete episode of JBVO has been found, cartoons and all! It was originally uploaded to myspleen.org early last month by user retroccn as part of a January 2001 "Cartoon Cartoon Fridays" block, but has recently been reuploaded as a separate video, after retroccn read that the series was somewhat sought-after here on the wiki. Thanks retroccn! Direct download mirror to source file available here.
- Three Whatever Happened to... Robot Jones? episodes have surfaced in their original dub! They were uploaded by YouTuber CartoonArchive late last month; thanks go out to CartoonArchive (for the upload) and to Allanvideohq (for letting us know).
- Several pieces of footage from the KaBlam! episode "KaFun!" have seemingly been uncovered! These pieces of footage consist of a title screen from a supposed Japanese airing of the episode, along with four segments which are alleged to have aired during said episode. Thanks to all those involved in uncovering this information and bringing it to our attention.
- The Alan Parsons Project's unreleased album The Sicilian Defence is receiving an official release! The album is set to be released at the end of the month as part of a new Alan Parsons Project boxset, The Complete Albums Collection. Thanks to ThatShoegazer for bringing this news to light.
- A bootleg (ie. photographed) screenshot from the Johnny Bravo prototype short Mess O' Blues has been unearthed! Thanks to Uncle Sporkums for bringing this to everyone's attention and, of course, to the source of the photo (the identify of whom currently eludes me).
- Finally, backup copies of episodes 2 and 5 of The Popcorn Kid have been uploaded to the wiki's YouTube account, following the suspension of mantronix4ever's account (to which the videos were originally uploaded).
Well, that was a mouthful. Don't forget about the Trove alpha key competition; each Discluded article fixed up will earn you an entry into the draw, with no maximum amount of entries (see the Old Notice Board Posts page for further information). Good luck to everyone who participates!
Trove is a recently released sandbox voxel MMO by Trion Worlds, currently in closed alpha. I've been playing it for several months now and have been having a great time. It's kind of like a cross between Minecraft and Cube World (both of which I am also particularly fond of, so naturally this game was right up my alley), with a bunch of its own original ideas to boot.
Now, why am I telling you this? Let me explain... Over the past few months, the frequency of sumbitted articles has increased significantly, so much so that I am no longer able to maintain them all by myself. A lot of the newer articles need either grammatical/formatting fixing, or simply need more content. These articles are largely things that should have probably been included in the Discluded category, though I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt and include them in the listing anyway (reserving the Discluded category for only the most incomplete of articles).
So, here is the deal: anyone who competently fixes up a discluded article, as of this point in time, will go into a randomly drawn prize pool to win a Trove alpha key (it just so happens that I have a spare and am willing to give it away for the benefit of the wiki). The more articles you fix up, the more times you will be entered into the draw; I'll leave this offer open for at least a week, with a set draw date to be announced soon. Thanks to anyone who decides to help and good luck!
P.S. I haven't forgotten about the pieces of recently found media that still need a Notice Board post; a BIG one is coming soon.
It was recently brought to our attention that a rare Lift to Experience/The Autums split 7" vinyl, Callin' Out To Jesus In The Middle Of The Night/White Nights (the former of the two songs being performed by Lift to Experience) was purchased, ripped and uploaded to YouTube in late December of last year! Thanks to ThatShoegazer for tipping us off and a big thanks to YouTuber Eyes Like Propellers for bringing this rarity to light!
In other news, it has been discovered that a Serbian dub of "Dead, or Alive", (a rare The Legend of Calamity Jane episode that was thought to be completely missing) was uploaded to YouTube all the way back in March of last year! While two episodes remain missing in their original English dub, this is still an interesting development. Thanks to YouTuber SvetAnimacije for uploading the Serbian dubbed episode and to PoundPuppies10fan1 for making its presence known!
NOTE: The original "Dead, or Alive" upload has since been removed and has been replaced above with a reupload.
Lastly, (since I've seen people mention it several times in the shoutbox), the full, uncensored source files of the Ricardo Lopez tapes are now available for download here via MEGA (courtesy of glbracer).
If you happened to have been trawling the shoutbox over the past few days, you're probably aware of a slightly controversial topic that came up, that being the uploading of the sought-after An Off-Beats Valentine's special that occurred a couple of weeks ago (on Valentine's day, to be precise). The catch here was that the upload was forbidden from being shared anywhere besides its source website (a private, invite only website, the name of which we were not even allowed to know), a concept which I wholeheartedly disagree with.
It is my pleasure to announce that an anonymous user of said website has sent me the raw file, which I have uploaded to YouTube. Thanks to the anonymous sender and a big thanks to the original ripper (whoever they may be). A direct download of the raw file is available here.
About a week ago, a Gravity Falls pitch pilot highlight reel from House of Cool studios surfaced, revealing more footage that, up until then, had remained unseen. Now, yet another pilot highlight reel has surfaced, courtesy of animator Adam Temple, who was part of the production team! Thanks again go out to YouTuber TheMysteryofGF for creating a mirror; at this rate, we'll have the full thing in no time! :D
Hey guys. How many of you remember seeing the bootleg copy of the The Angry Beavers pilot "Snowbound" that was included in the "Cuffed Together" pilot article? Well, a DVDRip is now available, courtesy of Eddy's Uploads over at YouTube; thanks Eddy! Notably, on closer inspection, the original source of the pilot seems to be a VHS tape... Interesting.
In other news, more footage from the Gravity Falls pitch pilot has come to light, in the form of a short pilot highlight reel from House of Cool, the studio behind the pilot's creation! Thanks to an anonymous contributor for bringing this to our attention, and to YouTuber TheMysteryofGF for creating a mirror of the reel!
On one final note, to those who haven't been following the whole Garage saga, stay tuned for some exciting upcoming developments...
Just a few more installments to go now for the Lopez tapes; in the interim, here are a few tidbits of interest:
Super Bowl II has been found! It was uploaded in late November of last year, and has gone by largely unnoticed until now. It was provided by the official YouTube SuperBowl channel.My mistake, it seems that this is not the entire broadcast, nor is it even the entire game (that'll teach me not to frivolously report things without independently verifying them first). Still, 22 minutes of highlight footage is better than nothing.
NOTE: The Super Bowl II highlights footage has since been removed from YouTube.
- The rare King of the Hill/Silver Surfer crossover commercial has been found! It was recently uploaded by YouTuber MiDSinister.
- Several episodes of Weird-Oh's have been found! They are being provided by Lost Media Wiki contributor Believer07, who has begun creating bootleg recordings from his own personal Volume 2 VHS tape (one episode of which, "Headlocks For Homework", can be seen above).
- A promo for the Emeril sitcom has been found! It was upped in early December last year by YouTuber Jamie Gee, and is the first piece of widely available video footage from the show.
NOTE: The Emeril promo has since been removed from YouTube.
- Two more episodes of Schoolyard Safari have been found! They were officially provided by funnyazhellanimation.com, the group who created the series. Thanks to compn over at the myspleen.org forum for originally tipping us off.
- The Lost Media Wiki forum has been re-enabled (for the time being, at least). You can check it out now via the top "On the Wiki" menu.
Thanks again to all parties responsible for making these pieces of media available! Keep an eye on glbracer's Ricardo Lopez Tapes YouTube playlist for future installments and, as always, be mindful that said tapes are of a disturbing nature and, as such, should be viewed with caution.
NOTE: The Ricardo Lopez tapes are no longer available in their entirety through YouTube; they can instead be found in their complete state here via MEGA.
The uploading of the second half of the Lopez tapes is officially underway; we're now more than two thirds of the way to having all 18 hours widely available! Thanks again to bun39 (for securing the tapes), to his anonymous source, and to glbracer (for providing YouTube mirrors).
P.S. Just a friendly reminder that these tapes are of a disturbing nature, and as such, should be viewed with caution.
NOTE: The Ricardo Lopez tapes are no longer available in their entirety through YouTube; they can instead be found in their complete state here via MEGA.
While many await the release of the final half of the Ricardo Lopez tapes, here's a little something to tide you over. Thanks to shoutbox contributor Dr.Unique (aka Rareth Maneth on YouTube), one of the missing Schoolyard Safari shorts (ie. "Flocking the Field") has been ripped and uploaded (just a few days back, and from their own personal collection, no less)! Fans are now one step closer to securing the entire series of nostalgic shorts; thanks again Dr.Unique!
Stay tuned to the Notice Board for updates on the forthcoming Lopez tapes.
Huge thanks to bun39, who has been in contact with someone who owns the full 18 hours, and, of course, to said anonymous source. As they will be uploaded in hourly installments, stay tuned to this announcement for future videos. You can see the YouTube playlist above, (uploads courtesy of glbracer), which will be updated as new footage emerges.
NOTE: The Ricardo Lopez tapes are no longer available in their entirety through YouTube; they can instead be found in their complete state here via MEGA.
What better way to start off the new year, than with two recently made discoveries; that being that Red Abyss' Luci's Love Child had been uploaded in full to YouTube, by user Rockbitchtribute Page, (between December 09 and 19, 2013), and that the rare The White Stripes documentary Nobody Knows How To Talk To Children had too been uploaded (all the way back on March 18 of last year; talk about a sleeper upload!).
Big thanks to Rockbitchtribute Page and Max Pozdnyakov for the respective uploads, and to CDCB2 and the anonymous wikia contributor for tipping us off!
