The original 9 1/2 hour cut of Greed?! Good grief - my first thinking is "April Fool" for that... it's been presumed lost. There must have been people who have seen it though.
Maybe the whole thing is an April 1 joke?

Apart from Greed I've never heard of any of those films. And why was Beaver the first place I read about the full cut of Greed being "found"?
Then again, of the full cut of Metropolis can be found...

It looks hideous, then DVD Beaver has always looked hideous. Web designers they are not.

All I see is a hideously poorly designed page, so bad I cannot see the joke from the crud.

That's because it was an April fool's joke which had disappeared by the time you checked it out

Ah, thanks.

An axe? Nope. It's just that the site has badly needed a redesigned, well since it first came out. It looks like a 5 year old designed it. The layout is a disaster.
Only My Space looks worse.

You want to offer to update the thousands of pages of content on that site?

The joke's still there if you click the link.
(At least it was last night).
It's to do with their new Public Domain BD range.

They could start any time, the home page for starters.

I just use the 'What's New' and 'Search' bits on the site, does the job for me.
