Jul 16 11 9:37 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Looks like he took down his entire blog save for one last post. Says he was being harassed and threatened by phantom fans. He took down his youtube page too. “carl hernz is a lying piece of sh#4!” “we should stop him!” “I don’t care anything about you…You probably don’t even have Parkinson’s disease.” “u should be hunted down by a mob” UPDATED: These are the type of comments I was getting. This is the type of harassment so-called phans or at least people claiming to be POTO fans have been sending me for days. They grew ever more threatening, so I stopped. I’ve not been doing anything but happily trying to include my readers along with things I was doing. About 2 weeks ago things started taking a dark and ugly turn. Whatever or whoever is at the root of this no longer matters. Not being to make all people happy is one thing, but being threatened for I am not sure what it was I did, I draw the line there. I tried to roll with the punches, but the messages have got out of hand. This blog is discontinued and I will continue my work privately from here on. All videos have been removed, and all my sites are going down. I thank all the interested ones, and you will get all future information on my projects through other means in the future. But to protect myself from further harassment I have decided to disconnect myself from direct contact with the public. I still hope that most persons are honest and caring, that most are trustworthy and would never do such things. And despite those who are being hateful, I wish all only the best. I will let the future, my work, and the way things end speak for themselves. Thanks to all who have helped and supported me up till now.–CH Just bizarre.

Jul 17 11 10:31 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I really hate to have this be my first comment but I couldn't find the intro thread so no I'm not here to start an argument. I'm here to clear up something I was made aware of on another forum of having been muddled on this forum. Also the quote button is taking advantage of my total newbie ness so please be patient with me as I improvise. heh *thebrainfollower wrote:* *http://www.phantomoftheop...d=674177#forumpost67417* Dunno if I can post a link to another board, but THESE people seem to think the original cut has been found? I'm a member of both boards and would like to correct their misconception but I don't have all the facts to know where they went wrong. Anyone wanna help me out? As the creator of that thread on the forum you linked THOSE people seem to think someone says the original ending has been found and felt the need to announce it via a separate thread { after asking a mod if they could or if it should be posted in the Chaney thread }. I am aware it could all end up being a hoax but I would rather give the guy the benefit of the doubt that he's telling the truth and be proven wrong then call him a fraud { as others have apparently done } and later end up eating my words when the footage really is there. I'd rather look like a fool for not calling him a fraud and discover he isone then look like a fool because I called him a fraud and was the footage really was there all along. Also I posted a screencap of the conversation to clarify that it isn't I who says the footage is found but someone else. Feel free to correct my misconception with the official announcement from Chaney Entertainment saying this is all a lie but until the movie comes out we have no proof one way or another whether it has been found or not { unless of course Chaney Entertainment, whose newsletter I'm subscribed too, makes an announcement saying that "yes the footage has been found" OR "no the footage has not been found" } and I would prefer to give the benefit of the doubt that he's telling the truth so I can go see the movie and find out whether it really has been found or not then to assume it hasn't been found and then end up being the last Phan who does get to see the footage because I just assumed he was lying without any proof to back myself up. *TServo4 wrote: I'll believe it when I see it.* So will I and I hope the rest of the Phantom community doesn't decide to fully believe it until they see it but calling Carl a fraud in the mean time is uncalled for. If he is in fact a fraud { which I hope he's not } then save it until the movie has been released and there's actual proof he's a fraud before telling him he should be hunted by a mob { which even if he does end up being a fraud Phans should know better then to wish being hunted down by a mob on anyone when most of us absolutely abhor that mob scene and, for goodness sakes, film footage isn't worth doing that to someone over when they make false claims that lost footage has been found and it hasn't }. *Rider wrote: Are they even claiming they have a different footage? All their claims are that they have edited footage to recreate the original ending.* If you're asking whether the thread I started on the other forum claims that then here's my answer: "Carl Hernz claims the lost footage of the Leroux ending has been found." If you're asking whether the 3D copy this thread was originally discussing claims that then according to my limited knowledge { I can only go by the website they have for their copy so don't quote me on this } all they have is photo stills to recreate the ending in some kind of comic book style { which the Milestone Edition kind of already has so yeah.... }. *Rider wrote: Ahh the confusion is because there are two toally differnt 3d version coming out at pretty much the same time.* I'm going to assume my answer to your question above is now a waste of time but I'll leave it there just in case I've assumed wrong. We had some of that confusion in the thread on the other forum as well because of there being two 3D copies coming out around the same time. I'm wondering if the fact that there's two 3D versions coming out may be why there's so much confusion over whether the original ending footage has been found. If you contact the one this thread originally discussed and ask them about the footage being found not knowing two different 3D versions are coming out then when they tell you that the footage has not been found it's very easy to see how someone would think the claims that the footage has in fact been found are actually lies. Again we wouln't know until its been released to theaters and once the proof is out one way or the other word will quickly spread and either a majority of the Phandom will go see Carls' copy because it has the footage or a majority of the Phandom will refuse to ever set foot in the theater at all to see his copy because it doesn't have the footage. *PhantomXCI wrote: I have to say that I'm skeptical about the discovery of any new footage.* PHANTOM is a pretty famous film, even outside the group of horror fans. Because it's P.D., it's the most widely-seen, easily obtainable silent American film. You're not necessarilly going to find INTOLERANCE or SUNRISE on the shelves at Blockbuster, but you will find PHANTOM. If there had been a discovery of missing footage, it would have been MAJOR news, (almost equal in importance to the discovery of the complete METROPOLIS), and we would have learned about it from a more reputable source than a message board. I would really love to believe it's true, but until the print shows up, I'm with Jack. We should all be a little skeptical of the footage until the proof is released { without flaming Carl in the process }. It's possible Carl doesn't feel the need to announce to the world that the footage has been found right this instant { can you imagine the flood of e-mails? } but instead he wanted the films' release to be the announcement instead. IDK Also if you don't let the film announce that its been found but instead announce it to the world the instant its been found then the world wants to see the footage and refuses to wait and see the movie to see it and then when you tell the world they have to wait till the movie to see it they'll still call you a fraud. "But if a reputable source announces that it has been found the world will believe it without footage" you say. If we have to give "highly reputable source" the benefit of the doubt that the footage has been found and wait till the movie comes out in order to see the footage then you still haven't gotten any farther then if you'd given Carl the benefit of the doubt that the footage has been found and waited to see the movie to see the footage. *ryanbrennan wrote: Meanwhile, back at Chaney Entertainment... Nothing.* If the footage has been found Chaney Entertainment will announce it when they're good and ready { which may be soon and then again it may be closer to the release date }. I sent Ron Chaney a message on facebook asking about it but I haven't gotten a response back one way or another so I guess we'll all have to wait. Having had to assume the footage had become plane fuel the wait is driving me crazy but there's not much I can do about it. Tim Hammell wrote: So the Chaney family and others have been hoarding lost Phantom footage for eighty years. Count me befuddled or did I read that board link wrong? in regards to *Ridge Sharks' post from Carls' blog { before it was taken down }:* *Q: Where has the “lost” footage come from?* A: Most of the footage in question is part of the Chaney legacy. While I will leave it for Ron Chaney to explain in his own due time the history of this unique footage, the 3D discovery seemed like the right time to incorporate it into a revision. But few knew this footage existed outside of those in the Chaney circle, so it should come as a big surprise to many as it did me. Some so-called “lost” footage is in the possession of still others, so there is more than just the Chaney owned footage. This footage has just not been made public. Eventually Chaney Entertainment will reveal what portions of additional footage it is bringing to the project, as will all other footage used be attributed to those who have kept it all these years. I am grateful and honored to be working on such a project. I'm guessing so but I wouldn't know so again don't quote me. In all honesty if the Chaney family did have lost footage I can see why they wouldn't just go and post it for all the world to see. I don't share things that are important to my family with just any random person on the street and say "here! Take this and put it in your project!" even if a lot of people would be interested in seeing it. If it's a family heirloom kind of thing the only people outside of my family who will ever get to touch it are people I trust. Maybe Carl and the Chaney family know each other really well and when Carl told them about his project they said something like "hey now might be a great time to release this footage we have that has been considered lost for a long time now since we know you'll take good care of it in your project and give it the respect and care we think it deserves." I don't know and we wouln't find out until the Chaney family tells us { if in fact the footage has been found in the first place }. *PhantomXCI wrote { in response to RidgeSharks' post announcing the closing of Carls' blog }: As far as I'm concerned, that's a sure sign this was a hoax.* To quote Carl himself: "I will let the future, my work, and the way things end speak for themselves." So.. For someone who just proved himself to be a hoax he seems to be pretty confident that those people who call themselves Phans and treat another human being like crap for no reason will be eating their words. If that ends up being the case I want to be there to hand those "Phans" their hateful words on a silver platter and tell them all "Bon appetit!" If it doesn't end up being the case then Carl had better go into hiding or he will have a boat load { not to bring up the mob thing again } of majorly ticked off Phans on his tail { and I'll be one of them }. Anywho! I'm off to search for threads where I can post happier posts then this one. I don't mean any offense by what I posted. I don't want to start an argument over this. I'm not saying anyone is at fault here. I simply posted all this because A: my thread on the other forum got misinterpreted and B: I really don't like seeing people being called frauds by others when they have no proof to back up their claims. All I'm saying is please don't plant yourself firmly in either the "he's a fraud" camp or the "he's not a fraud" camp until the movie comes out { or the Chaneys' make a statement saying whether the footage has been found or not }. Also if there is an intro thread can someone please direct me to it? Most forums I'm on have one so I'd be surprised if this one doesn't have one.

Jul 17 11 10:53 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I simply posted all this because A: my thread on the other forum got misinterpreted and B: I really don't like seeing people being called frauds by others when they have no proof to back up their claims. All I'm saying is please don't plant yourself firmly in either the "he's a fraud" camp or the "he's not a fraud" camp until the movie comes out { or the Chaneys' make a statement saying whether the footage has been found or not }. A very polite and reasonable post. Here's the problem. 1) Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof and 2) You can't prove a negative. To the latter: you're asking doubters to, essentially, prove this Carl fellow wrong and a hoaxster, that something he says exists in fact doesn't exist, which is impossible to do. That gets into the first given: it's not up to the world to prove he's NOT telling the truth, it's up to the person who makes the claim to show any ounce of proof that what he's claiming is factual. There is nothing other than verbiage which indicates there is any additional footage, 3-D footage, or anything else. Since that's a bunch of extraordinary claims with no proof whatsoever, reasonable people will doubt it. Sorry if that's disappointing, but that's the way logic works. I could claim I've got, oh, a couple of 8mm copies of London After Midnight-- -- and even offer up scans of the box covers as proof... with the Phantom, we don't even get that. Also, the invocation of Ron Chaney and Chaney Enterprises is a double-edged sword. I like Ron and consider him a trustworthy guy. That he has not said anything officially and publically makes me wonder: why not? And my logical induction is, because he has his doubts about this as well.

This thing is coming out in what like 2-3 months? How come no one has heard of this until now? Why not publicize it? Why has this not been making headlines for a year now?

Jul 18 11 7:59 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	To respond to ErikaLeroux... The reason so many of us CHFBers are skeptical about this claim is because we have already seen many other similar discoveries which have turned out to be hoaxes. Someone discovers a print of LONDON AFTER MIDNIGHT every three or four years. Last year, someone discovered an uncut print of HORROR OF DRACULA. And there are still a number of people who believe the extraordinary claims made by internet hoaxer par excellence, F. Gwynplaine MacIntyre. And we've seen a number of people selling off counterfeit movie props and memorabilia (Chaney's LAM top hat, Karloff's Mummy wrappings, Lugosi's makeup kit...) All of these mouth-watering discoveries have turned out to be hoaxes (well, we're still waiting to see if HOD is the real deal). So we've become accustomed to approaching every situation with a "Prove it!" attitude. Believe me, I would LOVE to see lost footage from PHANTOM. And I truly hope this discovery is genuine. But I'm just not going to believe it until I actually see it.

Erika, you probably couldn't find a group of folks more interested in this topic, and more hopeful for recovered footage of this kind, than the one here. But as he said, you can't blame folks repeatedly burnt for requesting an iota or two of evidence to back up claims.

Jul 18 11 2:37 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	There were certainly 3-D still photos taken on the set of both HUNCHBACK and PHANTOM. Those showed up recently. They were done as advertisements to the theaters, a little gift from Universal to promote the films. My guess: that's what the "3-D" thing is about. There don't seem to be any shots featuring Chaney in the Phantom make-up, just masked or turned away from camera, per the embargo on publicity stills of him prior to release. I think one of them does, in fact, show ol' Erik lying backward on his organ stool, so maybe that's where the confusion started. "Gee, that's a still from the original ending! In 3-D"-- a correct observation morphing into "Hey, they've got the original ending in 3-D!" Last Edited By: Ted Newsom Jul 18 11 2:40 PM. Edited 1 times.

Jul 18 11 2:49 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	For the "filmed in 3-D" part, it came across like studio hyperbole - there's some truth to it, but it's greatly exaggerated in order to generate publicity. Not unlike a movie claiming to be "based on a true story". It's further explained by Carl Hernz's now deleted blog, which only exists in google cache's history. From http://webcache.googleuse...mp;source=www.google.com Q: Is this a 3D conversion of the original silent movie with Lon Chaney? A: No. As most already know, the silent movie was filmed with two cameras at the same time. One reel was to go out as the international version while the other was for distribution in the United States. The distance between the two movie cameras (the lenses being approximately 2.5 inches apart) was enough to render a true stereoscopic image. Approximately 75% of the film can be processed in one way or another to restore this effect. Q: Does that mean the rest of the film will be left untouched? I’d hate to see another botched 3D conversion, especially of this classic. A: The entire film will be in 3D, with the other scenes converted but with a significant difference than what has been seen before. To begin with, Carl Hernz has been creating all types of drawings and photographs in 3D since he was 7 years old. He is a master at the art of stereography. When it comes to rendering scenes he often does not use any of the techniques or software others have been using. Some of the unique sequences have even been rendered based on key frames converted by nothing more than Carl’s own sight and hand, pixel by pixel. Early test screeners thought that Carl’s conversions were the native stereo scenes. This is not to say that other conversion have all been poor. In fact most people still don’t realize that the recent Alice in Wonderland was a conversion or that the 3D version of The Nightmare Before Christmas is the same. Conversions can sometimes be chosen over native filming if handled correctly with similar stunning and audience-pleasing results. Besides, the remaining parts of the film are either reshot sequences (such as the unmasking scene) or the famous Technicolor sequence where the Phantom interrupts the masked ball dressed as Red Death. A few other scenes are either unique in themselves or do not have a stereoscopic match (the same view as shot from one of the cameras was used in both reels). In almost every case there is a stereographic shot of a similar scene with all the visual cues necessary to make a scene look as a natively shot 3D scene. I still don't know what to think about all this. Like everyone else, I would love for all of Carl Hernz's claims to be true. If they are, I will be on cloud nine for a month or two. Guess we'll just have to wait for Ron Chaney to make an official statement on the matter.

Approximately 75% of the film can be processed in one way or another to restore this effect. Quickly (because this is bordering on wasting all of our time), the reason this isn't going to work because a) the cameras were apart more like 2 and a half FEET, not inches, b) shots that line up are going to be woefully out of sync and phase, leading to a blurry mess, and c) more like 75% of the film are second takes, not different angles.

Yeah, funny old world, ain't it. And if, by some chance, original sound could be magically recovered for PHANTOM, as per that parallel thread we've got here on the subject, I'll bet it would sound a lot like that recent KING OF THE KONGO restoration. That is, a spiritless ghost of a performance.

Jul 18 11 10:19 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Holy foodge that's a lot of responses to my post. Well here goes nothing. @Ted Newsom I know it's up to Carl to prove the footage has been found but that doesn't mean that if he hasn't proven in yet { probably because he's leaving that for the film release to prove IF he has in fact found the footage } so while he hasn't proved yet that the footage has been found that doesn't mean the footage hasn't been found. Doesn't mean that it has been found either I know but we can't just jump to conclusions. I may not have been involved in the Phandom long enough to have gone through a million different people claiming the Leroux ending has been found only for us to find out it's a fake { in fact this is the first time it's ever been claimed since I've been involved in the Phandom } but until it has been proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that this guy is in fact a fraud { whether he offers stills as proof or not before releasing the movie } I'm willing to wait until the movie has been released, go see it, and then announce to the Phandom "yes it has been found!" OR "no it has not been found!" So yes I am a little skeptical about this but I'm not about to plant myself firmly in the "Carl is a fraud" camp until it has been proven that Carl is in fact a fraud. I'm not really one much for having to eat my words later all because I wasn't willing to wait and see the movie before picking a side. About saying Chaney Entertainment is in charge of it now I sent Ron a message on facebook { I got a response via his daughter I will post a screen shot of at the end of this message with my own thoughts attached at the end } asking him about the film but Chaney Entertainment is a pretty big name to drop if it all turns out to be a hoax { though I realize Carl could also be dropping that name to make it look like by saying Chaney Entertainment is in charge that there's no way Carls' claims are a lie }. BTW if someone ever does find all the footage from London After Midnight I am so watching it! @Rider As much as I would love to see screen grabs from the Leroux ending footage { besides the shots I already have and love to pieces } a huge part of me just wants to save all the awesomeness for when the movie is released. So I'd be content with planting myself in the "yes the footage has been found" camp just from an official statement from Chaney Inc. saying that it has been found. Carls' copy is coming to the theaters in October { the other copy that definitely only has stills is going straight to DVD in September }. Actually it said right in the trailer on youtube that Carls' version would have the original ending but since the trailer didn't say it was footage most people probably assumed that it meant Carls' copy would use stills to recreate the ending. At least that's what I assumed until someone on the other forum linked earlier said something along the lines of "by original ending does Carl mean footage?" and since I'd contacted Carl before and got a response I figured "hey why not contact Carl again and ask even though most likely he'll say that by original ending he means the ending will be recreated through stills." So it's pretty easy to see how Carls' claims that the footage has been found could have been overlooked for so long. Also I don't even think this project has been known about to the average person for a year yet. Why it hasn't been in the headlines? IDK but I still say it's quite possible that it hasn't been announced to the universe because he's waiting until the movie is released to theaters first to do that { or the commercials show up on TV if he has any TV commercials lined up for it }. What happens if he announces to the world that the footage has been found and all this hype starts happening for the film and then for some unforeseen reason the release date ends up being pushed back? @PhantomXCI I understand being skeptical if the claim that the footage has been found has been made multiple times before have come up and been proven wrong { I haven't been involved in the Phandom long enough to have gone through multiple claims that the footage has been found but even I just assumed that by original ending Carl meant stills and not footage when I saw the trailer on youtube } but immediately assuming that its a hoax without any proof to back up that assumption isn't really all that fair { not that I'm saying we should immediately assume the footage has been found without any blatant proof to back up that assumption either }. Don't know much about the Gwynplaine person so I can't say anything about them. And again I know that if people have claimed before that the footage has been found and it hasn't a little skepticism is understandable but saying its' all a lie when the movie hasn't even been released yet seems to be a bit much. @Wich2 Don't forget Phantom Phans! IF the footage has been found I am going to as many showings of the movie as I can, buying the DVD the instant it comes out, and even if I have to go out and buy a special DVD player for it I will be playing that DVD over and over and over again. I may even have to buy a couple copies for when my first copy wears out from being played too much. Good grief! I sound insane! lol Let's just say I abhor that mob scene ending with a passion. @the discussion about whether the film really can be done in 3D the way Carl says it can. I got nothing. I go and watch movies and enjoy them and go "that was great" at the end of it. That's it. I'm not a film effects junkie who could tell you the entire history of 3D so I have nothing worth mentioning to contribute to that conversation. Anyways here is the screen shot I said earlier in this post I was going to show y'all { the response I got on facebook from Ron Chaneys' daughter in regards to Carls' movie with personal identifiers and irrelevant extras removed }: I certainly hope the picture shrinks once I post it. Anyways. As you can tell her answer is vague. No "Carls' claims are all lies" nor any "yes the footage has been found". The message can be looked at and interpreted as a "we wouln't post any comments on this lie until we get to the root of the problem" or it can be looked at as a "we were just given charge of the film and aren't going to make any comments until everything is in order on our side."Also I didn't want to make my message look like some kind of "hey we're having a discussion over on this forum about whether this is all a hoax or not and we need your answer" so of course it would be sent bathed in an eternally optimistic light. Dang it! I just want to know whether I'll be seeing Carls' copy of Chaney!Phantom once or if I'll be seeing it a bazillion times! Is that too much to ask for? My little Phangirl heart can't wait that much longer!!! Anyways its getting late so I'm going to post this and hope what I say makes sense and if not please don't hit me to hard.

Jul 18 11 11:32 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Oh, come on, nobody's gonna hit you, at least not very hard. Your enthusism is wonderful, and really, I don't see a lot of accusatory or insulting "Carl is a liar" posts here-- just healthy scepticism by interested parties. On that other board, perhaps, but not here. The response from Chaney Enterprises tells the story I figured it would. They're not sticking their necks out on a rumor. If there really was anything to see, it would be obviously beneficial to have them on one's side-- but to do that, one would have to provide tangible proof. Since no one bothered to send a DVD or tape of even a couple of scenes to Chaney, the enterprise sounds like a Philm Phan's Phantasy. Jus' sayin'.

As was also said then, yes, maybe something could be done with MAJOR computer futzing - but then, you're basically back to the standard-issue after-added 3-D often used now, not "shot in depth then."

NOSFERATU was released in a computer-futzed 3D version a few years ago. Interesting, but not great. Because PHANTOM is public domain, I suspect someone is giving it the same home computer treatment, and trying to publicize it as the real thing.
