But damn, i did not remeber that Col was in so bad condition, one can see from this how many black spots there really is, no wonder why my board base was looking so bad afterwards :evil:

Okay thanks Pokkis for the tip, didn't see there is an audio choice. I have just put it in my computer (without any notice). In the livingroom I have a 7.1 surround system (Yamaha RXV1700, Blue room speakers Minipod). I will look into it, thanks.

Hello Pokkis, hello everybody.
Today I am house-bound due to a very heavy-duty cold and flu, so you can imagine how happy I was to get the package with the "riders of the lost carve" in the mail.
I have been re-living those glorious days in Zinal.
Thank you!

One question: what is the story behind the initial scene? where the guy walks (with very careful steps) into the bar (?) with the glass of beer on the table?

Thank you very much once more.

Ciao to all.

Riders of the lost carve - initial scene

I got it!
It took my wife five seconds to tell me: "go take a look at the movie with a similar title" to put me in the right direction.

So one discovers that there is a film out there with a similar title, where they look for some long lost ark. The main character is played by an actor with a name that is a cross between a Ford Mondeo and one of the Beatles. The director is Steven "play on the mountain" Spielberg.
The film has a very complicated plot and it is not that good: there is not a single decent carve in the entire movie!
Pokkis's film is MUCH better: the plot is easy to follow, the images are impeccable.

So: thank you again Director Pokkis for your great movie.
And tell Spielberg that he should give his Oscar to you.


Ciao to all.
