SOBEL SOBEL@ISRACOM.CO.IL ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Date: Sun, 06 Jul 1997 12:38:11 -0500 (CDT) From: Daniel J Kuhn Subject: CED mailing list posting To: ceds@teleport.com I have noticed that a few scened in "The Black Hole" I remember seeing in the theatre have been cut from what is shown on The Disney Channel. There was a scene where the telepathic woman gets something in her eye, and Maxamillian has to take it out. And there may have been a cut in the scene where Max shreds his way though the book in to ...er...the "Phsycho" actor. Are these scenes present on the CED release? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Date: Wed, 09 Jul 1997 09:52:15 -0600 From: David Potochick To: ceds@teleport.com Subject: More DVD / CED stuff Chris White Emailed me and wrote..... >All this anti-DVD crap from you. Hey I own CED, LD and DVD. DVD is >simply awesome. If you see spots or pixels or whatever then you must >be friggin' blind. Well I'm not blind and I do see pixels changing on the in store demo.... This could be due to Quantization or Concatenation... Anyway.... DVD is here to stay... The technology behind it is really neat.... I may... MAY..... end up adding this piece of technology to my home entertainment system yet.... Despite all the bad things I've said about it... The discs are smaller than Laserdisc and there are a lot of really neat movies out on DVD right now.... My favorite being "Rock And Roll High School" with the Ramones..... I was amazed to see this out on DVD.... However one drawback I saw recently at a Best Buy in Illinois was a disk skipping and locking up.... So, obviously DVD still has this problem to a degree.... All Video disc media still can't solve the skipping or lock up problem... Hopefully they can correct this.... Later, Dave. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: "Scott Timperley" To: <ceds@teleport.com> Subject: CED's For Sale Date: Thu, 9 Jul 1997 18:55:51 -0500 Here is my complete list of CED's.

Everette elmeaux@iamerica.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Date: Sat, 12 Jul 1997 23:52:53 -0700 From: Tom Howe To: ceds@teleport.com Subject: CED Sightings on TV and in Movies Fellow CED Enthusiasts: Whenever I'm watching a movie or TV sitcom from the early 80's I always look at any entertainment consoles that may be in the background to see if they contain a CED player. Well, I've never spotted a player in any of my viewings, so I thought I'd post to see if anyone else has. The closest thing I've seen is the original RCA Digital Command Center being used to control a TV in "The Wizard of Speed and Time" (filmed in '83/'84 but not released until 1988). Something else that has been happening lately, particularly with 8-Track tape players, is the appearance of old technology in current productions set in the earlier time period. Showing someone loading a CED into one of RCA's electric-loading players would be a great prop for a movie set in the early 80's. --Tom Howe
