[reciting 'Twas the Night Before Christmas.] ....When what to my wondering eyes should appear, but a miniature sleigh, and...and Eddie with a man in his pajamas and a dog chain tied to his wrist and ankles. What the...?
First I wanted to take the Universal logo as a reference, but that would have resulted in a mess. So I was looking for a proper "neutral" look, which was kind of difficult, because colours where all over the place
Hey, Daffy, I see in the end the raw scans and then the color correction, but what was the reference if any? Did you just go with what you considered look good?
There is also rumours of a dispute between Ken Russell and one of the top dogs at Warner which lasts to this day and is the real reason its locked up. I imagine its part of some internal agreement nobody wants to touch!
Has anyone considered making a "the keep" Treatment for Ken Russel's The Devils? It's still insane WB won't allow the film to be restored even to this day
Well, if true, I can't wait to see where they mess up. Framing, grain, colors, sound mixes? All of the above? At least, it could be a better source for new fan projects.
Except it would be Blu-ray discs and would require such a player, while DVDs are cheaper and still sell better for the general audience worldwide who is already equiped for DVDs.
One of the reasons why they should have more SD on Blu-ray releases than stuck with DVD pressing forever, especially DS9. Little to no compression nor encoding artifacts on the SD format with less discs at the time
"House Party!!!!" In the Criterion Collection? I surpose I was a Michael Bay defender back in the day, so looking forward to the liner notes on ths one.
