I have removed the GCC videos from Rapidshare. Cinemajig contacted me and said the issues between him and Film-Tech are not resolved and asked that I refrain from redistributing the videos.

The video files I downloaded are exactly the same as on Youtube, so the only way those trailers can be in a better format is to talk to Cinemajig directly (I’d like to see higher quality versions as well).

I used DownloadHelper (a Firefox plugin) to download the flv files from the YouTube web pages directly to my computer.

Danny,
The Blue GCC trailer is in the compressed folder I uploaded. It looks like you need to configure your computer to play FLV files.
Here is a tutorial on playing FLV files on a Windows machine: View link

I even included the older GCC trailer with the blue background (Film-Tech even removed this as well).

I downloaded all the GCC Trailers that Cinemajig uploaded. They are in *.flv format. I can put them in a single zip file and upload it to Rapidshare if anybody wants them.

Somebody (not me) uploaded a bunch of GCC trailers on YouTube. Some we have seen, some we have not (including the “candy in space” trailer). He also uploaded a bunch of trailers from Lowe’s/Sony and United Artists theaters.

Here is the channel: http://www.youtube.com/user/Cinemajig

Somebody (not me) posted a version of the GCC Projector trailer on Youtube. It has a blue background, so it probably predates the ‘kaleidescope’ and ‘blue cloud’ versions.

PS: I’m also waiting for the ‘blue cloud’ and ‘candy floating’ GCC trailers as well.

I uploaded GCC projector video on RapidShare, in case the Cinematour server goes down.

I uploaded the GCC projector video on YouTube ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fIRwv1Ahq-c ), although the aspect ratio is a bit messed up. Hopefully if people see this, someone will find/upload the other GCC trailers (candy floating in space, 1980s projector trailers).

Thank you BrianC for providing that link!
I’m guessing that trailer is from the 1970s, but as a kid (in the 1980s), I remember watching the trailer with a blue background, as shown on this page: http://tulsatvmemories.com/gccvill.html

I’d love to see that particular trailer again.

I missed the trailer also. I’d love to see it, but I got here too late. I’d appreciate it if somebody reposted it. Thx.
