    I don't know what's worse - the amount of time this guy put into this, or the fact that I can actually remember most of the music, sound effects, and voices for the actors parts and can hear it in my head as this is playing! :)

      Same here... of course, it might have something to do with the 15-20 odd times I watched Star Wars when it first came out. :-D -- Ian

                  someone did - you can enable an ascii codec/filter in VLC player[^] which does it on the fly. very cool indeed.

                    I haven't had time to watch this all the way through yet. Does Han shoot first in this version like in the original or shoot second like in the re-release? If he doesn't shoot first then I don't want to watch it.

                          .nl??? Ahhh yes... God bless the dope smoking Dutch. God bless every last one of them! For he is not your average stoner who has a great idea when he is high, then forgets about it until the next time... He follows through on the thought! And for that we should all be thankful. Awesome!

                                I don't know what's worse - the amount of time this guy put into this, or the fact that I can actually remember most of the music, sound effects, and voices for the actors parts and can hear it in my head as this is playing! :)

                                Yeah exactly. It's uncanny just how ingrained this movie is in so many people. So good. I had no idea that you could do something like this with telnet. Too cool!

                                          I haven't had time to watch this all the way through yet. Does Han shoot first in this version like in the original or shoot second like in the re-release? If he doesn't shoot first then I don't want to watch it.

                                          No this isn't the ASCII "Special Edition." This is most of the ASCII original movie.
