Author Topic: Indiana Jones prints are locked (here we go AGAIN) Charles Greenlee Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 801 From: Savannah, Ga, U.S. Registered: Jun 2006 posted 05-14-2008 03:14 PM                        I think it's the combo for like 75% of the NES games that came out. Life force being another on my immediate memory.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 05-14-2008 03:23 PM                  quote: Brad Miller ...everyone takes it in the ass like the good bitches we all are.

How does Brad know the Konami code (which does work on Contra and a few other games)? Next thing Phil will know, and the world will implode!  |  IP: Logged Charles Greenlee Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 801 From: Savannah, Ga, U.S. Registered: Jun 2006 posted 05-14-2008 09:10 PM                        Brad should know. How can you be a techie without knowing the code?  |  IP: Logged Mark Lensenmayer Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1605 From: Upper Arlington, OH Registered: Sep 1999 posted 05-14-2008 09:29 PM                     I thought the code was XYZZY (That's for all the old geeks out there!)  |  IP: Logged John Hawkinson Film God Posts: 2273 From: Cambridge, MA, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 05-14-2008 09:55 PM                     Plugh. Am I really going to have to go watch Iron Man again to find out what reel it was? ok, ok... --jhawk  |  IP: Logged Charles Greenlee Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 801 From: Savannah, Ga, U.S. Registered: Jun 2006 posted 05-14-2008 10:10 PM                        You must be talking about one of those new fangled controllers with more than 2 buttons?  |  IP: Logged Ben Goodman Film Handler Posts: 32 From: Danbury, CT Registered: Apr 2008 posted 05-15-2008 01:52 AM                     No way, an ADVENT reference? That's not for old geeks-- that game is timeless.  |  IP: Logged James Westbrook Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1133 From: Lubbock, Texas, Usa Registered: Mar 2006 posted 05-15-2008 12:08 PM                     At least this thread is going much more happily along than the Iron Man thread...  |  IP: Logged Robert LaValley Expert Film Handler Posts: 104 From: Tampa, FL Registered: May 2007 posted 05-15-2008 06:59 PM                     Just curious what if you just cut the locks off? not saying I would do it but I just think of some of the people that are in booths that might not think before they act.  |  IP: Logged Dustin Mitchell Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1865 From: Mondovi, WI, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 05-16-2008 02:59 AM                     The email from paramount explaining the procedure for retrieving codes contained a warning about hwo the locks were property of paramount and unreturned/tampered locks would result in such and such consequences.  |  IP: Logged Mark J. Marshall Film God Posts: 3188 From: New Castle, DE, USA Registered: Aug 2002 posted 05-16-2008 09:20 AM                    4 8 15 16 23 42 Maybe what would get someone's attention is if every single theater cut the locks off and shipped them to NATO head quarters. EDIT: Oh, I see they're the property of Paramount. Maybe you'd better not cut them off then. But once they're open, THEN ship them to NATO HQ. If Paramount wants them, they'll know where to go pick them up.  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 05-16-2008 12:44 PM                     This really sucks: Paramount isn't going to release the code for "I.J." for the one lock until Thurs morning a 9am - the opening day. Thus, no prescreening to chek prints for picture and sound, AND for locations with multiple screenings, gonna have to be some massive assembly line type heavy duty film builds that'll have to be done. ..might as well add this note to the front page along with the BV note (now, I could be wrong on this Thurs release time, for I was told this by one of our managers on a fax that was submitted there from Paramount. Thus, if wrong, maybe someone can clear up the wind...)  |  IP: Logged John Hawkinson Film God Posts: 2273 From: Cambridge, MA, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 05-16-2008 12:49 PM                     You sure about that (what's your source?)? It's not what the note Ben posted said, and at least around here, theatres have midnight shows scheduled for 12:01am Thursday (Wednesday night). --jhawk  |  IP: Logged William T.
