This is so freaking cool. The idea that they take some film journalist on a little adventure instead of just sending them a straight document about the movie seems like the most wholesomely fun thing to me.
As someone who saw a lot of press kits around that time, it's definitely one of the more impressive ones. Since that was around the time press kits were transitioning to being online only, I'm guessing that CD is actually a CD-ROM, probably containing most of the standard press kit material (bios, plot summary, credits, making-of stories, publicity stills). The VHS would normally include clips that could be used in reviews, and possibly some making-of footage, but it also could be something special.
Yup, we had one as well! :D Our first VHS player was a big top-fed machine though that went CLONK when you closed the tape tray! 😄 I think it shouldn't be too hard to find a VHS player at say, a thrift shop! 😛 If anyone gets a VHS player, a CRT TV is a must too! You can't use a modern tv with a VHS player, not for technical reasons but you have to stay true to the format and have the right "feel" of the video and sound! 😁👍
@@samgraef3028 Yeah, it would be a DVD/VHS player technically... However, our combo player could handle CDs too. Can't say all of those combo players can (I'm not sure) but ours absolutely could! 😛
We got one a few years ago that can record the VHS to a blank DVD as it plays as well. Only used it to digitize old home films and is now collecting dust.. but still handy.
one of my favorite collectors pieces is a Japanese press kit for Satoshi Kon's "Millenium Actress" from 2001. it came with a fully annotated storyboard manga, a poster for one of the fictional movies in the film and a bunch of post cards. Press kits really are some of the coolest things.
I've got "The Terminator" on one of those weird DVDs too. Whoever made it had some serious QC issues because it just simply will not fit in my DVD player. 🤷🏼♂️
@@CaydeSmax hey, that might work. I can already tell it'll take like three hours to even try and watch the movie. It would be a nightmare to try and get the long, skinny DVD off of the two spools and rolled back up to fit on the player's tray. Patience is a virtue though. Haha
@@joachimlarsen2k they are ridiculously expensive now if you get one new. I remember getting one in around 2005 for about $150 I believe. Now they're like $400+ on eBay for new ones. Smh
I actually had a Hellboy costume freak out a few years ago. I was getting fitted to work on a post civil war TV pilot and when I was walking out of the costume dept I noticed a particular coat hanging on the racks, 2 of them actually. That is when I noticed the BPRD patch on the shoulder, not sure why they had them unless they were going to repurpose them as dusters. Took everything I had not to grab one and run! :)
As a massive Hellboy nut, and Adam Savage fan, I have never clicked on a video so quickly in my life. It would be absolutely amazing to own one of these for sure!
God it took me too long to figure out that "press kit" didn't mean "press" as in the action/verb...but press as in like media release stuff. I was violently confused.
I'm pretty sure Technology Connections would have a nice CD/DVD/VHS recommendation up his lovely Orange with context (most commonly called Brown) jacket's sleeve.
Imagine watching the movie the first time after going through all of this. What an experience! Apart from getting people to write about it, it must really affect reviews positively since the journalists get such a great experience.
Yes, Mr. Savage... There are VCR/DVD combo devices that will play VHS, DVD, and CDs. They may be a bit, erm...thin on the ground these days, but with a bit of poking around, you should be able to find one on eBay or somewhere...
I always get so much anxiety when people word things like that with me, because it's often ambiguous in English! I couldn't be certain here either, so I'm just going to assume it was much more clear in the correspondence they shared. ;)
@@JosephDavies Agreed! I have a feeling Adam is very clear about things like that. Made me nervous because I've given something to a friend once for them to look at and they thought it was a gift they'd get to keep.
Seeing all that wonderful work with amazing attention to detail and realising most reporters read it maybe a half dozen times as they wrote an article and then these were either filled away and forgotten or thrown out. It's kinda sad. I wonder what kind of Canon information about the characters and events is only listed in stuff like this? Probably very little if any. I'd love to see more of these.
It's kind of hard to believe that Adam doesn't have a VCR or DVD Player laying around somewhere in the vast collection of stuff in his shop (or his storage areas)..
VHS players are no longer made, but they can be found pretty easily either old/unopened or refurb on Amazon and eBay. The last manufacturer, Funai of Japan, halted production in 2016 due to lack of sales so what is out there in the wild is all that will ever be. A number of companies made machines specifically for burning VHS tapes to DVD media, so they shouldn't be hard to find, but they weren't known for being very reliable or long lasting.
Of course there are DVD/combos many of which had DVB tuners. Released before PVR were common they could record to either DVD or VHS. Most people used them to make "backups" of DVD to VHS of course or making DVD copies of VHS tapes at better quality than hooking 2 separate devices together. They were extremely common here in the UK and I still have one here not 6 ft away from me but not used for years.
This is awesome and a great little window into the world. My only tiny, *tiny gripe*- and maybe it's because I've been watching Adam for so long- is that it all looks a little too clean and professional. I always picture the BPRD to be a little rough around the edges, with beaten up old files.
That wasn’t just an inter office mail envelope. We had those in the Pentagon back in the 90s when I worked there. No, this was a custom inter BUREAU mail envelope, with emphasis on the word BUREAU. Somebody made this thing back then to look just like a real inter office memo envelope (minus the holes), just so that they could change the word “Office” to the word “Bureau”.
4:34 Adam, I have a combined VHS/ DVD player, one of the first things I bought moving out, as I had a lot of VHS tapes, and, yes, you can play CD on the DVD side.
Had. VHS production ceased in 2016 when the last manufacturer, Funai of Japan, halted production due to lack of sales. No other producer of VHS players remains active. All VHS players now for sale are pre 2016 construction, though you can still occasionally find them unopened through specialty dealers. Otherwise it's all refurb and used market
The last VCR was made by Funai Electric, the last one was made in July 2016. That doesn't mean there's thousands in warehouses and stores around the world. You should be able to pick on up for cheap. With some imagination, you could display it somewhere in your cave, maybe a TV/VHS/CD combo, all three in one machine.
I used to work in a cinema and occasionally, alongside the usual posters and standees, we'd get random freebies to hand out on the concessions stand or box office to promote a movie. Most of the time it was flyers or stickers. I'll always remember the ones we got for the movie xXx (the Vin Diesel actioner from 2002); they were 100s of sets of temporary tattoos...and packs of condoms with the xXx logo visible when (how to put this?) in use...suffice to say they were never handed out to the public, or anyone, ever!
They do make DVD/VHS combos, I have one that can actually convert VHS to DVD. I digitized all my old VHS tapes by ripping the DVDs to a PC after converting them.
Still use my VHS/DVD player made by Samsung (DVD-VR320) to copy old home movies from vhs to dvd, then rip those DVDs onto the computer. It’s 16 years old but never fails me!
DVD/VHS combo players were fairly common up until recently. They seem to be available online, but for some reason they are currently priced like GPUs! You could probably grab one from a thrift shop for a reasonable amount, but in my experience they weren't generally great quality so maybe stick with a known manufacturer.
Wow, looking at pictures on Kodak Royal paper... It's funny you mention having been around CD/DVD and VHS devices for many years of your life Adam, I spent many years in retail photofinishing so now when I see real photographic prints on real photograph paper it blows my mind to consider that it's obsolete technology now.
Adam, I believe Panasonic and LG (among others) used to make a DVD/VHS player in the last days of VHS. They used to sell these here in the Netherlands so you should be able to find one! Kind Regards, Sander
I have a Sony CD/DVD VHS combo player/recorder. HDMI. Pop in tape, burn to disc (CD/CDR/DVD/DVR it pretty much doesn't care what you throw at it). It's only about 20 years old so they might still make them...
I still have a VCR/DVR player that I have held onto for occasions just like this. And so I can watch the original theatrical release of the Star Wars box set trilogy that my wife and I have. Also, the device is capable of transferring the VHS directly to a DVD.
They absolutely do make those but the VCRs in them usually burn out after a while or the DVD player depending on the model. I’m so glad I don’t have to use those things anymore.
i think all DVD/VHS players also did CD. Never seen a blueray/VHS, but that would be bizarre. A few years ago i saw them in pawn shops when i was looking for stuff for a different project, so pawn show might be quick easy place to start.
4:14 I still own 3 VCR players but I'll admit its probably been 20 years since they played anything even though there powered up and ready to go, my mum has a little pink ghetto blaster with a built in cd that she has likely used once, I probably have some old things that most people nowadays will have never seen just put away in storage.
I'm sure someone in the tested crew has the gear to not only play the vhs tape, but to digitise it. You could at least get dvd/vhs recorders and/or players about 10 years ago.
Hey Adam, The new lego Discovery Space Shuttle set just came out, and I think it would be a sweet one-day build idea! It would be awesome to hear your thoughts on it since I believe you worked on the shuttle for Space Cowboys. I have built the set myself and think it's fantastic. Slightly on a tangent, Mythbusters was one reason I fell in love with physics as a kid, and now I'm attending the graduate physics program at UCLA next fall! Keep being awesome; I absolutely love the youtube channel. Best, Alex
4:42 a Blu-ray or DVD player should be able to play the cd unless it's a computer cd. So an interesting fact you guys may not know is that as of 2015 (I dont know about now 2021) cassette tapes were still been widely used for albums and other chart music but most of it was for the prison system there is an entire industry put towards making clear plastic tapes, tape players, headphones, radios even TVs all for prisons and prisoners and it needs to be clear plastic so it cant be used to hide stuff in, it's worth looking up info on it as I was surprised to hear that something like 40% of music is still sold on tapes.
Adam, I love your videos, your enthusiasm, and your passion. I've been your fan for quite a while, but I gotta tell you this.... don't you think this Hellboy thing is getting out of hand?
Amazing! Considering I just learned this in my program and I love the letter of intimacy that makes you literally feel like you are a part of the movie. Also, why are his nails so dirty!?
Ok, not having a VHS or DVD player anymore is something normal, but a tech addict not having a BluRay player (they also can play DVDs) is something that surprises me.
ADAM! The guy on the rpf forum who made the corpse locator isnt doing commissions anymore and hasnt made the files public. Show us how youd make one please!!!
I do own a VCR/DVD Combo player; you just never know when you'll need one. Not a hoarder but I'm a "bit of a Luddite" (my phone is still a BlackBerry); there is value in the old.
Come on Mr Adam Savage,Never let the 80s and 90s die !!!!!, I have my VCR under my Couch ready to pull out when I need it,Also I'm ANTI netflix, I enjoy being the Sole Owner of my films 📽️🎥🍿🎦🍿📀🍿📀old School Baby old school 😁😎😁

And Adam is so humble it went right over his head.
@@TechnologistAtWork you're so right.. one unique human being right there.
Adam not having a VCR in the cave is the most surprising thing in this video
VCR less surprising then a CD drive in an attic somewhere to me
I'm quite surprised that he has neither in there, let alone being unaware that hybrid players exist!
@@JosephDavies I'm sure Patreon people will find him one.

Some discs used to be custom shaped like that.
ive still got a vhs/dvd/cd player its super handy when the old stuff gets dragged out lol
So can we expect the box for this item in 6 weeks time? I'll put it in the calendar ;P
Someone who poured their heart into these back in 2004 finally gets their vindication!
They make a VHS/DVD combo and that would be perfect. It would also play the CD for you.
I remember wanting one of those soooo bad
@@joachimlarsen2k they are ridiculously expensive now if you get one new. I remember getting one in around 2005 for about $150 I believe. Now they're like $400+ on eBay for new ones. Smh
@@89ludeawakening1 you don't need a new one. Just grab a used one from a local store.
They also have TVs with them built in. Usually the tv combo goes for much cheaper than just the player because space.
@@ihtfp69 yes I know that. I'm just commenting how ridiculous the price is for new ones because they're pretty much collector items now.
This is like the OG Hunt-A-Killer box. They really should release this stuff to the public, especially with how much effort has clearly gone into it.

Honestly, if they are altering them to reuse them, I think you should have. Just stuck them up your jumper and booked it.
@@cheasepriest I really did think about it!
I can’t believe Adam doesn’t know about VHS dvd combo players. They’ve been around since DVDs first came out
I pointed at one in that moment.
