It's such a valuable resource that will no doubt contribute to interest in Melies. A Trip to the Moon really does need a lot of attention. If you or anybody else is interested, I've started my own post about it on my blog. It's not finished, and I invite comments to help me produce an annotated, shot by shot description and analysis of the film. If it turns out half as well as the entries on this site, I'll be happy.

I have a Super 8mm film of his "A Trip To The Moon (1902)" and some other stuff as well. I got the film when I was in high school, before they had VHS or DVD. I used to experiment with crude "special effects" myself as a teenager. This is a winderful series of articles on Melies!

You are providing the commentary tracks that this series richly deserves. I hope you record these and make them available as mp3 files for downloading. OK, charge a fee if you will. I'll pay. More!
