Not strictly bouldering but definately of interest...
The premiere of 'Consumed' - a video by some climbers, will be held in the Sheffield University Auditorium on the 23rd of feb (this Mon) at 7.30. it'll be £2 on the door which is pretty good value for over 60 E6's and above :shock:
Word.

Is it still going to be available on DVD?
Anyone got contact details for Dan at the moment? Would like to get a copy off him...
-
I'm there. :D
careful huffy, i bet the rockfax boys try and charge you for that cocktalk post! :wink:
-
will be good on the big screen!
-
See you all Monday night (might even bring the little lady to hold my popcorn...)
-
Very entertaining. Has reinforced belief that routes are indeed wrong, Mike Weeks' big lob at the end gave me the willies and not in a good way :wink:
Nice soundtrack, with exception to the backing tune to that thing of Miles' in BBg quarry, static death noise.
-
it was fucking the bomb. not many climbing films have you wincing (numerous falls) and then pissing yourself (as the grange hill music comes over ross) in a matter of seconds. I'm watching the audio commentary right now.
shame they didn't play the mike weeks/art nouveu footage at the end (Art nouveau look flava by the way).

-
Anyone know if I'd be able to get hold of a copy, sounds worth a gander.
-
if its dvd I'd be intrested ina copy an'all, don't do VHS these days
-
Dave I would be proper up for a copy and all if you know how.
cheers ears
-
I ain't got the means to copy one. However if you PM the one like chris doyle or huffy then they are the ones to speak to. tell em big D sent you.
-
I think Huffy's your man, he lives with Dan after all.
-
Yeah, Id love to get hold of a copy... Anyone know the score with getting hold of a copy?
-
Just got me a copy - cheers Huffy & Dan.
Not watched it end to end yet but what i've seen so far is very very good - sweet film, good effort :D
There's only a few left btw so if you want one you'd better move fast.
Props to the belayer on Harder Faster - life saver.

Who do I email to get hold of a copy?
-
PM Huffy or Chris Doyle and they should be able to give you the address to send a cheque to....
-
Huffy - cheers mate, got the DVD. Its very cool, good effort lads.
Found some o the special features, but am sure there are others to find too!
Cheers

I was flicking through the extras on Friday at my girlfriends house whilst I was waiting for her to get ready :roll: , and as her dad walked in wondering what I was watching I got that bizarre pr0n clip! :shock: :oops:
Really good film though, very inspiring. Mike Weeks on Harder Faster is scary as fuck.
-
Yeah, that clip is bizarre - sort of like a fisting, but more of a "heading" or something :D
I've yet to find the "top ten" bit, must try harder.
After watching it through, Dan's fear, then psyche up and subsequent fall from the top of Gaia is one of the scariest bits of climbing film I've seen - awesome stuff....
-
i believe 'headfuck' is the term you're looking for...
-
*Beta alert*
top ten is off the top of the last page of the "choose the climb" pages....
-
Find them on the menus! Ahh, i was just skipping through the tracks to get to them. :roll:
-
use your cursor keys on all the menu's and youll find loads....
-
Or just play the .vob files directly from explorer.
-
well yeah...
-
Got a copy a few days ago and have watched most of it a couple of times. Congratulations to Dan and all involved, it's great.
Okay, trainspotter time… Can anyone identify a couple of the routes in the intro for me?
The first is a steep, curving, quarried arete that's sandwiched between clips of The Mint 400? I'm pretty sure it's the right arete of the big slab underneath Froggatt with Third Burglar on it but I've no idea what the route is or how hard. Anyone?
Second is the quarried wall between clips of (I think) Slab and Crack) and Clippety Clop. Crossed-up jump for a jug. Looks great but I've no idea what it is.
Damn, I think this is going to inspire me to get my rope out again.
-
Have you listened to the commentary? Pretty sure everything is described on there - change the audio track to track 2, and you'll be sorted :D

Ah ha! Hadn't spotted that there was a second audio track. Cheers.

Just checked and the first route I mentioned isn't named. The climber is identified as Iain Farrar, so I'm guessing the route is Dogs Die In Hot Cars. Can anyone confirm? Looks great.
-
I think (although I'm not sure as I don't have the DVD in front of me) that the 'route' in question is not Dogs Die (which is actually just left of the arete, or just right of turd burglar). It is actually a boulder problem (albeit highball and with a shocker landing) of Ians. I dunno what he called it (if anything at all) but I think he said the grade was font 7c. Although that might be wrong also. Shit I'm useless, but I am trying...
-
Oh yeah Ozbound is on that boulder also. But I have no idea where that fits in in the scheme of things. But hey ho....
-
Shit I'm useless, but I am trying...
According to the DVD, you're a genius :wink: :)
-
How do I get hold of a copy? Will it be in the shops?
-
I'm not sure if there'll be any left now, and no, it won't be in the shops - are there any left Mr Doyle?
-

If thats the case, would any of the nice people out there who own it and have a DVD burner be kind enough to make me a copy...........
-
I got one through from Huffy earlier in the week but he did say last week there were one a couple left.
If the worst comes to the worst and you can't source one through Huffy or Chris. We've got a DVD burner at work, so I could probably fire off a copy. Drop me a PM if you are struggling.

Excellent. Thanks for the info. I'll definitely go and have a look some time. Gorgeous looking arete.
-
If somebody okayed it with Dan first then i'd happily do them a copy, but if the idea was a limited release only, then that'd be a out of order....
-
Indeed Bubba, I was just about to edit my message to that effect.
-
I'm not sure if there'll be any left now, and no, it won't be in the shops - are there any left Mr Doyle?
Dan might have some left. Huffy's the man really cos he lives with Dan, but i bet he's fed up of distributing the bleedin things!
-
According to the DVD, you're a genius :wink: :)
:oops: Awww, you guys...
-
Hey bubba just noticed, whats happened to my sheep? I just get the red cross of misery as my ahhhh-var-tar.
-
I think the genius comment was in reference to your slab problem at Rivelin, when it shows Tom De Gay running up it to avoid the moves....
Sorry Nik, I lost all the hosted avatars when I upgraded the board...if you still have the sheep, you can upload it from your profile...
-
...and me shouting "yeah" out of shot - fame and all its associated riches at last......
Time to find a new piccie...

Iain never actually completed this project and so a project it remains. I have been sworn to secrecy about it for about four years now. However i guess the cat's out the bag now. Iain hasn't been on it for yonks so i reckon it's about time someone went and bagged what will be a total classic (sorry y'Iain). I've been on it and i think its more E7 than 7c, unless you bring about twenty pads and fill the trench in under the landing. Steadyish moves up the arete lead to a hard traverse section and a tricky pull-over. It seems a very conditions dependant thing and due to location rarely gets in good nick, which is part of the reason Iain hasn't bagged it. Go to it.
-
Oooops, guess I fucked that up then. Ho-hum, sorry Ian...
-
I shouldn't worry Nick, he's off enjoying himself in Castle hill at the mo so you won't be getting a brick thru the window for at least a month :lol:
It's about time this cracking line got some attention anyway, at the very least it might get Iain out of semi-retirement to have another go.
-
Anyone know what the route is that Tom solo's in the hidden extra's? Looks like Yorkshire...
The commentary adds a whole new dimension to the dvd.
Any chance the first video could be put onto dvd too?
Look forward to the next one.

-
Yeah I'd second that too about putting the first one on dvd. I've just watched the lastest one and its very good, very inspiring too.
-
It sounds class, why isn't it being reliced propperly? I'm sure plenty of people would buy it!

I'm pretty sure that's from the first video - I may be wrong here but I think it's an old Mark Leach route at Millstone, "The Bold and the Beautiful"?
The Weather Report footage with the hideous fall is also from the first video, though the footage of the rescue is new.

Bugger, I thought I'd found all the extras, but I was doing it with my dvd player, might have to fire up the computer and cheat.

my lapdogg seems to have serious beef with playing the VD. i can open it in explorer very laboriously and it hangs with the laser noisily clunking back and forth inside the machine, doens't really do owt, won't open or copy the gritlist etc. never had this with any other CD or VD. anyone else getting this problem?
when i bought it dan said it wouldn't work on a PC which is why i'd not tried it till now. whats the flava?
-
I think some are just encrypted to play on DVD players and some on PC's, dunno why. The first films on DVD now too, dunno what dans plans are for it though.

Do you know if the one iam getting of you will work on a PC?
-
er, not sure, will check.
-
sausage, the one your getting is encripted, and is only supposed to work on a player, though it appears that some encripted ones do also work on pc so i will check try and give you one that does both.

That explains it then, I can't get WR on my dvd.
Will have to check my mates copies, we all bought one (thats 3 of us) so with a bit of luck..... :-)

I found that my copy works on my brother's dvd player but not on mine and plays in the computer too
-
OH NO.
My Consumed DVD has started to seize up and die :(
I tried to watch it for the 4th time and about 3/4 of the way through various scenes started pausing and stopping :cry:
I lent it to a friend and it wouldn't work at all in his normal DVD nor PC DVD players... :x
And he took it to some computer wizzkids of his, they got some of it to work, but said that it was deteriorating and there was nothing that can be done about it . :evil:
Anyone have any ideas as I love it and don't want it to die... :puppy:
:crying: SOB :byebye:
-
Damn, that's a bit shit after only 4 plays - some of the copies were anti-copy protected, some weren't.
I don't agree with copying low-volume labours of love such as this for all and sundry, but if your copy is getting trashed then it's fair enough in book.
Try DVD Decryptor and see if it can rip a copy to your hard drive, then you can either watch it from there or burn a fresh copy.
-
word, DVD decrypter is hte premier DVD ripping tool and its free as well, removes all anti-copying shit and regions. well good. not to sure on its ability to repair stuff. there must be some software out there. Isn't there something like badcopypro for repairing CD's?
-
yo fizzle, you aught to try and get in touch with dan honeyman himself, you might be able to get another "original" copy, worth a try.
-
You can PM / mail him via this site via username Doc, but he doesn't pop in often...
-
My copy doesn't work on my new DVD player :x .
-
my copy works on DVD playa but not on computer - think soem are formatted different to others apparently.
-
why are they done like this? some can play n some can't, where they sold telling people of these limitations?
-
Dan did tell me when I bought mine that it would not play on a computer.
-
It was deliberate that some wouldn't play on PCs - luckily I got a PC compatible one.
Like I say, DVD Decryptor will probably read them all, or you'll certainly find some sort of utility that can. You should be able to make backups of stuff you've bought legit imho.
Although dvdXcopy has been forced to shut down by the muthafucka MPAA, etc, you'll still find plenty of copies flying about p2p. That's a very easy to use utility for doing backups.
-
think i also got told that come to think of it.
-
was there any point to the dvd being done like this? i don't understand :?
-
Well...
Firstly Huffy said that the copy I bought wasn't a computer-compatible copy, BUT it worked perfectly on my PC. Maybe though that's why it's deteriorated.
Secondly in a moment of panic I did just copy the files from the DVD straight over to my PC, but that's quite limited i.e. couldn't get the menu nor the full shizznaz with the music soundtrack, only the commentary version in 3 parts. And since then for some reason I deleted all those files.
Thirdly, the gist I got from my friend was that his whizzkids thought the DVD had deteriorated enough that they couldn't actually burn a copy of it (that was the plan, to get a deeper-burnt copy).
I have another friend with an original so perhaps could borrow that and try to copy it but I'm wary of fucking his copy up. I think I will PM Dan and Huffy though...
-
I presume it was to stop pirating. But as we all know, nowt can stop pirating anyway, so yeah, it probably was pointless.
-
playing it on a PC shoudln't fuck it up. CDs or DVDs should only get fucked up through either scratches on either face, or if the disc itself is faulty, not sealed properly or something - this can happen. i bought a box of 20 verbatim writable CDs last year and none of them would even read as blank let alone write on any computer i tried them with. i kept the receipt though.
-
Another good one which I use a lot is DvdFab (http://www.dvdidle.com/dvd-fab.htm). It'll copy any DVD retaining all the menus / soundtracks / etc and will split it over two discs if it's a dual layer original.
-
ahh, ok. i was reading it like, some you could play only on dvd n some you could play only on pc. ie i thought whats the point of buying a dvd that won't play on your dvd. all's a bit clearer now. as is the fact that i'm a tool :D
-
sorry about all the problems, it all origionates from the poor authouring software i used and the fact i didnt know what i was doing when encoding the files, i think i would have been better on a mac with final cut but i went with pc's instead, although now i think i have cracked alot of the problems, but i am still not happy with adobe encore. maybe also the dvds are degrading, i read an article in computer video sometime ago about dvd lifespan, i will send you another dvd fiend, ( i only have a few left and i only planned to make 70 , so wiped my hard drive )
