Phase II Blood and Fire Part 2 Grading and Commentary

[MikeH92467]

So any movement on this? The next one will be out before this sucker gets uploaded!

I've seen the final audio mixes via youtube, and some kindly chap on the Phase II forum did his own mux as a divx movie, but the quality is not as good as the official part 1 that is available from DNA and the mirror sites, would love to have the finished version as a proper DL, it's a fantastic episode.

Agreed, any criticisms I have the episode have to be taken in the proper context. The Phase II crew have set such a high standard that some issues that I singled out (especially in part 2) might not even get commented on in other productions. The work they are doing is nothing short of amazing.

I just didn't like this story as much as I liked the last 2 specifically. And I think the episode went a bit too long, had too many scenes that went longer than they should. Acting by the guy that played Peter Kirk went over the top a little. There just wasn't much in this episode for me. I think the execution could have been a little better. The last 2 stories I wish they would never have ended they were so good. To me on this story I was hoping it would end sooner.

Thanks for the input. I think there will always be some variability in how much our different episodes will be enjoyed by different viewers. I don't know if our series' "City on the Edge of Forever" has already been produced or if it, rather, has yet to be produced. Same with our series' "Spock's Brain" or "Way to Eden." But we reach into our pockets and shell out thousands and thousands of dollars to make these silly things. But we'll try to do better. Maybe you'll like our next episode more.

I'm still waiting with baited breath for Kitumba... I can't wait to see how that one comes out.

Sushi for dinner?

Part II was definitely stronger than Part I, which I suppose is the way it should be, but Part I could definitely stand another round of editing to tighten things up.
