I loved it. I came out of the theater feeling like I did after Fury Road. Someone actually pulled off a sequel to a 30 year old film and it worked! (Sorry Tron) Personally, it and Fury Road are the only films I would rate close to perfect in the last 10 years

What did you guys think of Blade Runner 2029? Personally I HATED it.

According to BD.com users, the Bruce Lee UHDs don't benefit much from the 4k native bump. Also they're SDR and were probably done in that color range ala the Italian Suspiria.

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.

that Kinio AFOD is atrocious

That looks the same as TGTBATU, that's just terrible

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

Anyone see the remaster for Fistful of Dollars yet? It looks very, very green.

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?

Hello

Starting the Christmas music season early... listening to "Onkel Tom - Kling, Glöckchen, Kling"... jst one month left for christmas...

still hoping theyll do tremors one of these days..

nice, looking forward to it

Hoping for the theatrical cut and the 1.66:1 aspect ratio with this one

Arrow is the best! Hopefully they will visit the color timing.

Very Interesting!

So it looks like Arrow Video are releasing Robocop on BD. Postcard was found in one of their releases today

Today a very nice day.. sunny.. and about 5 degree celsius.. and I will light up a BBQ today.. hope I do not burn anything down..

Yay! Coffee... In the morning... The day seems to start very great!

thanks to both of you

Yes it's an open forum. They can post in the Presentation forum if they want but they don't have to.

so just link the site and it's open reg?

There is no protocol per say. Just have them create a new account.

there's someone i would like to invite here, but honestly, i have forgotten the protocol regarding that here

anyone 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

95.

Well, he was 96...

I don't understand... I thought he was healthy...

Rest In Peace: Stan Lee (1922 - 2018)

RIP

He will be missed, always got a good laugh with the cameos, and looked forward to them.

So sad... I'll miss his cameos...

RIP Stan Lee

At least, with the Rammstein Shows, you can almost see your money burning at tracks as "Feuer Frei"

Loved his work on Scarface!

Giorgio Moroder is great. I love what he did with Metropolis.

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).

Yeah! I am going to see Rammstein live next year!

Will you draw me like one of your French ladies?

Artistic input?

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.

it was rhetorical, i have a pretty good idea of what he may have done

With people & posts disappearing, only the admin/mods would know. Care to speak up, fellas?

lmao, wonder what ol jetrell did to get himself banned here

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. )

yup!

sporv?

@BT: not understood sock-puppet thing... may you explain? thanks!

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.

That's exactly what I did, he has one active topic on the forum
