Info: rare and lost movies

I found Haydaze on the lostmediawiki as it shows up on my stats. (I rarely check this, as almost all of the few referrers are just search engines). Interesting site with forum. Maybe I even find something for this blog.

I wonder what is the difference between lost, completely lost and not yet released. To me a series aired in different countries is not lost, but just not released on DVD.  

There are many many series and shows that aren't available. Sometimes they appear on YouTube. I found many movies and series, please check out my rare movies list and also my tag unknown on both blogs. I also have some real lost movies here (mainly 1920s silents, search for lost movie).

Especially vintage German school TV series are rare. They even have to be destroyed after the school year. I have  some few, like Moving to Marlborough (1983) and related English ELT series, also check my other blogs.

There are also rare, lesser known series like Gli anni d'oro (1992), I recently bought one episode on VHS. Often IMDb is incomplete, has errors or don't know some and of course missing pics. There are also many educational movies like from FWU (16mm). These are not lost as well, the company still operates. There are better databases like filmportal.de.

I have some more rare movies and maybe I will upload some more on YouTube. But I had bad expierence and people often want more and more. And I don't want to risk that my blogs got deleted again. 13 year of work. And maybe just as one is not happy enough. Also some of my clips got deleted. Note, that this is a database and not a sharing site.
