Thanks to the Original Poster!
I was going to post this movie, but the copy I had had a 4x3 aspect ratio. Also, the quality was somewhere between a very good VHS and a not-so-great DVD. Rather than posting a mediocre-quality full screen movie, I went looking for better quality widescreen version.
I found a copy labeled 720p Bluray, posted in this group by USMale666, on 09 Jun 2014. I didn't want to post an nzb because, having been posted over 5 years ago, the file has fallen off a number of servers. If the file is not available on the user's server, it won't be there for the nzb to get. The nzb won't make it come back.
This file was a little unusual because, whenever I've found a Bluray file, it's always been in mkv format. This file was in mp4 format. (What I've posted is what I found.)
That seems to have brought up an issue in making a Sample. I tried a few techniques, but whenever I made an mp4 Sample, the quality was substantially degraded.
I always try to make the Sample in the same file format as the main file. With this movie, I couldn't, (Maybe someone else can, but I couldn't.) So I made a Sample in avi format. The Sample reflects the quality of the main file, which is in mp4 format.
The mp4 format isn't a bad thing. The person who ripped this was able to keep a Bluray quality, together with a file a hair under 1 GB. It's unusual for me to post where a file came from. This is a rare instance where I knew. It's also unusual for me to post a Sample in a different format. I thought you were entitled to an explanation,
