Looking at the Caps-a-Holic comparison, color aside, Kino has more image on top, right, bottom, and resolution is not bad IMHO...

Are there problems with Kino AFoD beyond the color-timing? In other words, putting that aside, how does it stack up against previous releases?
@CSchmidlapp I believe the Bruce Lee films are out on 4k Blu-ray in France. It would be interesting to see if the I'mmagine Ritrovata restorations benefit from the 4k treatment.
I find that some of the I'mmagine Ritrovata restorations tend to look better on a display with strong backlighting that can bring out more of the color. I must say though, the night scenes look pretty good on the Kino Blu-ray (screens 8, 12 and 13).
i guessing here a bit but I don't think its a problem with the restorations per say. More the transfer to lower tier media like Bluray. I 'dream' there is a pristine 16bit master behind this uglyness.
Wasn't it remastered by same studio that did A Better Tomorrow that shares same issue?
It is very green indeed, and I don't know if the mono track isn't simply a fold-down. There is nothing "remastered" about it, the old Italian or German BD are still miles better.
that the new Kino release of AFOD you're talking about? After the botched TGTBATU release, i decided to stick with my MGM set
Hey guys. Does anybody know a online store where I can buy an hdd storage (external/portable) for a good price on this black friday?

Yes it's an open forum. They can post in the Presentation forum if they want but they don't have to.
there's someone i would like to invite here, but honestly, i have forgotten the protocol regarding that here
Also, he wasn't exactly healthy, there were cognitive deficiencies not uncommon with men in their 80s. And yeah, at 95, he did live to a ripe old age, but death comes to us all, eventually.
I think the point Feallan was making was once you are in your 90s, there is no such thing as healthy
He will be missed, always got a good laugh with the cameos, and looked forward to them.
At least, with the Rammstein Shows, you can almost see your money burning at tracks as "Feuer Frei"
I booked Giorgio Moroder for 2019. I know, totally different... but at least it was cheap
Yeah.. ticket price like from hell... but.. never saw them before live... and I like their shows on BD and DVD...
@MrBrown I got to see them live last year. It was great (apart from stupid expensive ticket prices and crappy venue).
some interviews with directors about movie projects that didn't make it into film on arte.tv: https://www.arte.tv/de/videos/RC-014728/...no-kommen/ don't know if all are in english with subs.. or what language options the individual interviews have...
Yay, new episode of my new favourite sitcom- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9PtosZDrw0

Not worth making a thread but did an open matte Blade Runner 2049 ever come to surface?

@Valeyard It took them long enough to ruin the livestream I was watching though. lol

Does anyone have experience with After Effects? I have a small video project I need help with that requires a bit of artistic input send me a private message.
Well, I translated a German word into a English word, and got only one result, seems as if the translation was not perfectly fitting my intented expression.
Merriam-Webster: subliminal (adjective) - "inadequate to produce a sensation or a perception". That explains your not getting the humor. I'll explain ... so, you see, the reference was to the story Nineteen Eighty Four, written in 1948. It ostensibly was about a future society, but actually was about the present day society. 1948 ... 1984 ... 19:84pm (I put the "pm" in) ... Get it?
@BT: Neither people, nor posts just "disappeared". Your subliminal way of conspirational theoristic accusations are quite inppropriate and not really funny.
Mine was sort-of rhetorical, too. Let's check our watches ... it's 19:84pm. Let see how long before a reply.
With people & posts disappearing, only the admin/mods would know. Care to speak up, fellas?
Whoa! Did that "sock-puppet" word slip out? By the gods! BronzeTitan is NOONE's sock-puppet! DO YOU HEAR ME, HERMES?! HERA?! APHRODITE?! ATHENA?! ZEUS?! *lightning strike* Ouch! Oh, Zeus, you were listening. Sorry. Of course, your will is my command. (That was close. )
Alas, that's our sock-puppet existance. But it isn't against The Rules. For me, I just carry around this huge, 2-story long, bronze sword.
@BT: Maybe somebody reacted as intended to react, or somebody just does not want some special projects to become reality...
@Feallan Oh OK great, I guess I just didn't notice because I don't generally read his threads. But I have nothing against him of course!
@ Feallan - T̶h̶a̶n̶k̶s̶ ̶.̶.̶.̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶f̶r̶o̶m̶ ̶t̶h̶o̶s̶e̶,̶ ̶t̶o̶o̶,̶ ̶s̶u̶r̶f̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶a̶r̶o̶u̶n̶d̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶ ̶I̶n̶t̶e̶r̶n̶e̶t̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶c̶o̶m̶e̶ ̶h̶e̶r̶e̶ ̶f̶r̶o̶m̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶i̶r̶ ̶s̶e̶a̶r̶c̶h̶e̶s̶!̶ . But, hmm, they still seem to be in the trash. You did move then back into the forum, didn't you? [added: I re-read and seems I misunderstood your action (or lack thereof).] . . @ PDB - Good point, except for this -- complaints are, well, "complaints"; and no complaints are ... "no complaints". (In that case, let the scoreboard call the game.)
I'd also like to point out that decision concerning Koopa was not made in a vacuum of admin/mod groupthink. It was done after complaints from members.
Actually I think it would be a good idea to tell Koopa to put all his project ideas and discussion in one thread and that would keep everyone happy.
Also, on a site note: I have the opinion, that your "1984"-similie is quite wrongly placed, for more than one reason.
Just to give a second "not Mod/Admin"-Opinion on that Topic: I am with the Mod/Admin decision on that topic. Nothing against people with good ideas, but somehow a certain flood of threads felt more like "spamming" with sometimes ridiculous unrealistic project "dreams"/wishes.
Everyone interested in reading Koopa's threads can still access them. I moved those threads out of respect for work of people who actually do something instead of just spamming the forum with 30 "idea" threads obscuring valuable discussion
Ouch, that post was alittle harsh, even if it was over 6 months ago. I don't know ... ideas for projects, even if not completed, are still a valuable resource at forums. And in other threads, Koopa Luath was doing the indepth research and resource gathering needed. Not just for himself, for anyone with the same interests. But that is little excuse to "clean house" and dump all his work in the trash -- especially as it doesn't seem to be used for (offline?) archiving. That is a clear insult to Koopa Luath and to everyone else here. It cries out for a policy change (if there is such a policy). Even OT, with all it's serious faults, doesn't play at being a 1984-style un-poster forum. I would suggest that Koopa Luath threads be returned to their rightful places at FanRes -- if not for deceny's sake, then for respect of our work, sweat, and tears to produce such for this forum.
See Feallan's post here- https://forum.fanres.com/thread-2020-pos...l#pid40740
Whoa ... just noticed that almost all of Koopa Luath inqueries/projects are in the "Recycle bin" -- 2 full pages of topics. What happened here? Any way to get them back into their areas? And what happened to all the previous topics (non-Koopa Luath) that were there but are no longer there? Truly deleted? (I thought Recycle bin was some sort of "offline archive" to free up space in the live area? Recycle bin: "A place for threads that normally would be deleted, but which may contain proper discussion here and there"
