Gary Larson's Tales from the Far Side Farside 1 & 2 DVD ISO

This release has a known error... please try the the re-release here: http://thepiratebay.se/torrent/4439152 If you like this release please support the work at: http://www.thefarside.com/ Presented here in its original DVD ISO format allowing you to rip it and encode it to your liking. These highly acclaimed animated short films, until now only available on VHS, have attained cult-film status and have been sought after by Larson fans and collectors for years since their original television and film festival screenings and home video releases. At long last, fans both old and new can enjoy Gary Larson�s Tales From The Far Side and Tales From The Far Side II films together on one DVD! Gary Larson�s Tales From The Far Side and Tales From The Far Side II take you on a journey through the unique landscape of the comically scientific and strangely ironic musings of the ever-so-slightly twisted mind of Gary Larson, the creator of the renowned syndicated cartoon The Far Side®. A 22-minute version of the award-winning Tales From The Far Side debuted as a Halloween special on CBS in 1994 and then disappeared while Larson worked on the sequel. The 45-minute Tales II was completed in 1997. An official selection for numerous film festivals and broadcast in the U.K. on BBC, Tales II was never seen on U.S. television. In 1999, Larson himself re-edited the full (30-minute) version of Tales I and, until now, both films have been available only on VHS. Both films are a collection of animated vignettes created almost exclusively by hand (drawn, inked, and painted) in traditional cel animation technique by the talented artists and animators at International Rocketship, a Canadian animation studio under the direction of Marv Newland (Bambi Meets Godzilla). With minor exceptions, these are dialogue-free vignettes (12 in Tales I and 16 in Tales II), segueing from one little world to another and range in duration from several seconds to several minutes. The usual panoply of Far Side characters�cavemen, cowboys, time-travelers, headhunters, insects, amoebae, wolves, gorillas, dinosaurs, hunters, beer-guzzling aliens, insolent cats, mad farmer scientists, and, of course, cows�are all here. It�s The Far Side we�re already familiar with, alternately funny, bizarre, baffling, and at times poignant. Only now, things are moving. Both films feature original musical compositions by Grammy® award-winning guitarist Bill Frisell, whose talent provides the musical voice to Larson�s paradoxical and incongruous humor. The LA Weekly says �It fits that Bill Frisell would produce the most personal, emotionally evocative music of his career to-date for a set of compositions inspired by the comic strip The Far Side.� Tales I: Gary Larson, Writer/Creator; Marv Newland, Director (original version); Toni Carmichael, Exec. Producer. Tales II: Gary Larson, Writer/Creator; Marv Newland and Gary Larson, Directors; Toni Carmichael, Exec. Producer; Dennis Heaton, Producer. Produced and Presented by FarWorks, Inc.

Doesnt work for me. It starts fine but when I choose either chapter 1 or 2 it just says: cant read the disc. Its like its nothing on the disc, its not even trying to read the disc.
I burned the dvd with nero on a verbatim dvd.
I never have problems with DVD´s, just this one.

Do you know that you can rightclick on the iso file and choos to open it directley with VLC player no need to mount iso files and other images or burn them to Dvd's

There is problem with this iso. It will burn with nero, clone or whatever but the disc will not play in a standalone dvd player. There is a problem with one of the .ifo files in the rip. It seems to play on my pc but that is all. I have been mucking around with this thing in all sorts of programmes, re ripping the burnt dvd, making another iso from it but the same error keeps occurring.
I must say thank you for the upload. I appreciate the effort of all people here, but when I have a very limited download availability it is disappointing to download something that is of no use.
I merely post this as a warning to those who may want to download it.
Your best best would have been to upload the dvd files instead of trying to be fancy with an iso.
