Reminding everyone of the crowdfunded 3-D restoration of 1953 Mexican film "El corazón y la espada": https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/3-d...spada1953/ it's about 86% funded now! There's also a test scan https://youtu.be/oLHC1Z57p-Y and it looks great! I just watched it with red-cyan glasses. Big Grin
avatar
one day there will be only CGI movies, or movies with unknown (and cheap) actors with their faces replaces with the ones of dead, famous actors... meanwhile, it's funny to get a mix of the faces of Sylvester Stallone, The Rock and Matt LeBlanc on top of Arnold body! Happy
avatar
the most eerie part is how it can't really work out what's in the shadow (or the edge of the face shot over the shoulder) and keeps shifting back to arnold
avatar
avatar
How about another alternative where Terminator 2 starred Sylvester Stallone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQvCmQFScMA
avatar
Can't we have a timetravel movie with the plot, that everything Terminator Movie after Terminator 2 has to be prevented to protect the world from a dark fate?
avatar
If that is true, I won't see that movie at all...

Terminator Dark Fate plot leaks from a test screening: https://heroichollywood.com/terminator-d...s-changes/ (the film sounds terrible and plot is recycled).

I had some hopes this can be a normal film because; Cameron is back (new trilogy+Hamilton+Schwarzenegger). But unfortunaltley the transcript is garbage. All these big names are more for a market trick. Probably it will be first and the last from new trilogy, same as Genisys. Too bad, they blow up it again. And at the end, it's not Cameron's work, it's Miller's work and from 8 stupid writers... From T2 I didn't see any normal film.
avatar
Also on Lethal Weapon, I thought the series was good (I've only seen season 1), really all the sequels were a betrayal of the first film's central theme of Riggs coming back from the verge of suicide, converting the series into a comedy (as this article https://outline.com/ktdHMB calls it the sequels are their own comedy trilogy that didn't fit the theme or genre of the original). The sequels really are completely different off in a world of their own and almost a full parody of the original like what Scary Movie is to Scream or what Ghostbusters 2016 is to the original. Lethal Weapon 2 is my favourite of the sequels if only for retaining some of the original film's essence, not saying that the other two are bad at all but really none of them fit the original.
avatar
@marin888 you're surprised? Cameron endorsed Genisys. https://outline.com/nGy9vP https://youtu.be/7LqgdNVTcRA Then later after everyone hated it he said he didn't like it either. https://outline.com/hsbAeN I wouldn't believe a thing he says about Terminator Dark Fate, movie will be terrible should be direct-to-video like Escape Plan 3.
avatar
Avatar is not good Cameron
avatar
So, if you play the T2 CAV Laserdisc backwards it says "Cameron is dead?" Tongue
avatar
Hum what I think he died after doing Avatar, which is a 1995 movie made in 2009.
avatar
I think it looks OK for an early look. Also T2 Cameron is not modern Cameron, he died after he made True Lies
avatar
What bonehead signed off on that music? It's a sleeping pill. Using the original theme music should have been a no-brainer...
avatar
Yes, the franchise is dead.
avatar
Agreed looks terrible
avatar
Well, it's about exactly what I expected. Definitely not my cup of tea.
avatar
He has been saying that on every film since T3 tho. "This time it's the true sequel to T2" he says.
avatar
This looks exactly like Genisys... hard to believe that Cameron himself said that Dark Fate is the official third movie in the franchise.
avatar
What the hell they done... extreme disappointment, pure trash! Shocked
avatar
Terminator: Dark Fate Trailer 23. 6:00 AM PST Smile https://twitter.com/Schwarzenegger/statu...2514873344 Brad Fiedel NOT Scoring Sad
avatar
It would probably be like Lethal Weapon. Younger cast than the one in the film, watered down to make it appropriate for kids, and without everything that made the original great
avatar
Wow... ever seen a UHD BD being worse than a BD? https://caps-a-holic.com/c.php?a=1&d1=13...=527&y=251
avatar
I think it would be fun, if they would have done it years before, with the original cast. On the other hand, I really would like to see a kind of a "prequel" show, like his missions, and keeping the family unclued...
avatar
On one hand, it wouldn't make for a bad show, on the other, I feel like what made the movie even work was Cameron as a director and the leading cast. So to be blunt, I feel like the show will feel very hollow and wouldn't last very long if it does reach the airing of the pilot.

We don't have the bandwidth or diskspace for that. I would have to frequently wipe the image database just as other sites

OK. Strange question. Is there somewhere a list of OM versions but with more footage only on top and bottom (comparing to BD versions)?
avatar
Congrats! Phone company guy told me it would take an act of Congress to get the copper lines replaced in my area.

You ever just have that dumb thought where you know it's something that probably no one will ever make but you would want to see if it was a thing for the sheer ridiculousness of the concept? Stranger Things: Super-8 Digest

@MrBrown. That is crazy.

"Zombie - Dawn of the Dead" no longer is banned in Germany! Just indicated, but now it is legal to sell the movie in Germany to adults! PARTY!

SCART isn't exactly RGB as stated earlier- it CAN carry RGB, but it sometimes doesn't. I assume you're talking about this in a context for retro gaming, so in this case, it's easier to get a SCART to Component converter box than gamble on a cable. Much safer.
avatar
@IcePrick Afaik, SCART can carry RGB (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCART), but that doesn't mean that every device with SCART connectors supports those. In other words, SCART supports multiple different types of signals. If a device has a scard output, but only sends the composite video through that, that RGB adaptor cable will not give you any output signal.
avatar
Quick question. Do SCART to Component cables (https://tinyurl.com/y3avkzp6) work in any meaningful way? Can they carry an RGB signal?
avatar
OK. Thank U. It was important if it's official. So it looks like only Russians have that "special" version
avatar
to answer your questions: IVI and Megogo are legal streaming platforms, as Amazon and iTunes; is it possible to find their versions out in the wild, but frankly I dunno where - and, in that case, I'm not allowed to write it here! Wink
avatar
shamar: to get more attention, I'd start a thread in the forum - for example on "Official and unofficial releases"; you will get surely more attention, as not everyone here read the shoutbox.
avatar
PS - I forgot one thing: it was some kinda combo, runtime 3 hrs 19 mins. 2 hrs movie + 1 hour bonus material
avatar
Is there a chance * to...
avatar
My questions are: Am I right? Someone could know these sites. And what are these sites? Some russian legal paysites? And probably last question: is there to find that version somewhere else?
avatar
And next I was searchin what was that: some fanmade? It looks like not. It looks like version from site called ivi.tv or/and from megogo.
avatar
So... I found by accident "Rogue One" OM on some russian site. Clear version without logos. But the site (probably people here know it open-matte.ru) was taken down.

Happy Easter to U and everyone too Smile

I've got one on the beginning.

Hello. Im new so be gentle for me coz of my stupid questions Wink
avatar
Switched on TV, there was "Doom"; wanted to watch it, took out the DVD, noted it has NOT the hardcoded text... interesting!
avatar
However the HD master aren't complete, as the Blu-ray authors cut a bit of Papagallo speech, probably due to not having the complete audio on the foreign dubs. This results in foreign dubs still being out of sync during that moment though.
avatar
Thanks for the info! Smile
avatar
The "Mad Max 2" title card started appearing on the Warner HD-DVD and then the Blu-Ray releases. This is beacuse the HD master used for those releases were made from the OCN that was confirmed to the International/Australian version. The "Road Warrior" subtitle was added to the US theatrical release and was widely seen on versions released prior to the HD-DVD/BDs
avatar
Saw a bit of The Road Warrior on tv the other day, and it had the original "Mad Max 2" title card! When did they change it back?
avatar
Ruppi, sometimes private trackers are used, im not going to list any of them, but since they are private you need to apply for the when they have open registration
avatar
No, there is'nt any thread, because we do not host any download links... this is the place to work on projects, to help each other.. but for the Download stuff there plenty enough other sites in the wide wild web...
avatar
HEllo guys =) i am new here. Is there any Thread who can explain me how i can download any releases here?
avatar
@CSchmidlapp thanks for the share
avatar
@CSchmidlapp - That was a pretty cool look at T2's music
avatar
Can't be any worse than the last one, that's for sure.
avatar
@spoRv, well, after Solo's failure, Lucasfilm are taking a break from films and will focus on shows for Disney+, so probably.
avatar
I proper geeked out while watching / listening to this - https://youtu.be/nnpYowxlwsU

"The saga comes to an end"... mmh, really?!?

That laugh sure sounds familiar...

any long-time reddit user here? If so, please drop me a PM, thanks!

SF's Phantasm II BD was an older Universal HD master and not their own new scan, hence it's issues. As it went OOP due to Universal's US rights expiring and now owned by Don Coscarelli, it was inevitable a rerelease with a new remaster was coming at some point with Well Go's partnership.
avatar
Well that previous master was by Shout! Factory back in 2013 (which seems OOP now and outdated technically when compared to the newer remasters for the rest of the series, so I suppose that's all a good reason why a new restoration is in order). I'm assuming this new master will be helmed by the same people–and Coscarelli–at Bad Robot, so I have hopes that it'll look considerably better (with–hopefully–the excess reddish hue removed).
avatar
Phantasm II didn't look so hot in the Blu_Ray box set that came out just a few years ago. I didn't think they would double dip so soon?
avatar
Completely forgot to make mention of this last week, but there's an upcoming Phantasm II 4k Restoration as a part of an upcoming collector set of the series: https://twitter.com/DonCoscarelli/status...0824944640
