Following Toyota's lead with the sticky floor matt recall, under threat from the NTSB, I am recalling all distributed copies of Glory Hog II. It seems that when you are watching the movie and attempt to pause, rewind or fast forward the movie, the screen freezes and won't restart. Scenes missed while you are negotiating your way through traffic cannot be easily replayed (you have to start the whole movie over again). This can create unsafe driving conditions as it distracts the driver even more as he attempts to figure out how to restart the movie. Fortunately, the copies that are in current circulation have the same quality of video and sound as the original master copy, but suffer from the afore mentioned technical glitches. I would like to take full responsiblitly for the issue, but regretably that is not possible. For the sake of full disclosure, Gene Wensell was one of the first people to receive a copy of the new movie and was the first person to bring this issue to my attention. It seems that some of the technical problems that he was suffering from Essential Ecounters somehow "leaked" onto Glory Hog II. We are having some forensic scientists look into this. In the meantime, if you have or are about to receive a copy of the first edition of Glory Hog II in the mail, just make sure that you enjoy it from the comfort of your favorite arm chair, as you will not be able to pause the movie to make obscene gestures at the driver in front of you.
In order to rectify the problem, I am removing myself from post-production editing and turning it over to a studio that actually knows what they are doing (what is a bowyer doing inside a computer anyway?). I wish I could pass the blame to the editor of the video, Steve Tadin, but he entrusted yours truly to accomplish the seemily straight-forward task of getting the movie from computer to dvd. The fully-functional second edition of Glory Hog II will be available and shipping within 3 weeks or so. To those of you who already have the flawed first edition, you will receive a replacement copy at N/C. Just make sure you have toothpicks in place to keep your eyes from blinking so you don't miss any of the action until your new copy shows up. (I should have put a Stalker Recurves commercial in the beginning so you'd have been forced to watch it every time you had to restart the movie!) :knothead:
Geez, I thought it was only mine, but I wasn't about to complain...it's that good!
But it will be nice to be able to search around and not get fustrated.
Good stuff bud! :notworthy:
Dang...second movie I've ordered recently that will be hung up with technical difficulties. Thanks for the info. and best of luck getting it all worked out. :pray: If I just placed an order for 2 copies, will I be receiving the new or old version?
Good on ya South...I was blaming my wife for trying to sabotage my favorite DVD :) Thanks for letting us know!
Hope you are still gonna send mine. I'm hating the foot of snow and itching to see some pork arrowed! I sure don't care about the glitches.
I've shipped out the movies that I've gotten orders for, you'll just have a collector's edition for the archives. The new ones will be shipping shortly for those of you who are suffering the off-season blues. I'll re-announce it as soon as the UPS man brings the boxes.
Thanks South. I hope Kevin gets the test drive bow for league, I would really like to see it. Got the dvd today. Thanks!
