If anyone knows or hears of a Star Trek The Motion Picture print coming up for scale (or an owner who's willing to let it be scanned), let me know ASAP
    

No jonno, you're not.  I expressed the same excitement when I saw the listing.  
    


I can't be the only one who actually enjoys Trek V - a film scan would have been terrific. Here's hoping we have the whole set one day.
    

Another thing worth mentioning is that the process varied depending on the negative as well. Super35 was quite popular but that didn't allow for contact-printing in all generations through to release print, whereas filming at the native size of the eventual release print (with sountrack) did.
    

Yeah IB prints are not made using photographic dyes, but regular "prints" are.
    

Thanks for the vid link! Tried the YT link for the website but it's gone (or rearranged). Fortunately, Internet Archive has it here: https://web.archive.org/web/201604211704...echnicolor (all the YT vids & lots of PDF docs)
    

Cool video, Valeyard. I wasn't aware prints were actally printed. I somehow had this idea in my head that they were exposing each print separately and then developing it.
    

I would be willing to donate to such a project .... like it's any secret that I love Star Trek.  LOL

Aw don't do that old friend. Yoda says ... "Balance in The Force, there must be!" 
    


I'll just ignore the shoutbox as much as possible from here on out. Better for everyone.
    

Well then how come you make a point to say to me you dislike coming here because of drama but you're okay with the drama as it happens there?  People on all sorts of forums talk about stuff like this.  I wasn't mean.  I didn't say nasty things.  I can't have an opinion on it because you're here?  Or is it that you honestly feel bad about some decisions there and don't like being reminded of them once in a while here because underneath your moderator title you're actually a genuinely caring person stuck between a rock and a hard place?  
    

I'm not asking anyone to walk on eggshells, or resign. I just don't see how dredging OT drama up here benefits this forum.
    

If it helps, I hope it's only temporary for DE, he is one of the better site members there even if he can be a handful sometimes.
    

You cannot blame your work drama on me or this site.  If I have to walk around on eggshells here because members of OT are members here I will resign my account immediately.  Besides, how would you like a banning from OT to follow you everywhere you go?   You also give yourself too little credit.  I'd say you probably turned it down because you are a decent person and were not interested in a conflict of interest.  
    

Tougher skin has nothing to do with it. (And I never said that to you.)  How would you like workplace drama to follow you around everywhere you go? I declined a moderator position here because I thought it would be too much stress. 
    

None of us can have our cake and eat it too SW .... not even me.  I'm sorry if you take issue with me having a little fun.  Take it with a grain of salt like I do.  
    

It's a temp ban, AFAIK. And this is why I don't like hanging around here anymore. 
    


Well well, another longtime OT user gets shuffled out ... my congrats to DuracellEnegizer for earning his new badge of honor.  Nicely done DE, enjoy the fresh air and don't look back, you are finally free.   
   
 
    
 
   
 
But if they tried to scare people with Knock-Off Nigel, they failed miserably!

@spoRv nah you wouldn't, you would send them a PM and ask them if they want to be friends and by the way can they please stop misbehaving! 
    


Good deal Andrea ... I'm glad there are still a few web forums that support at least basic civility and common decency.
    

@spoRv ahahaha! But you would never ban anyway anyway you always like to see the very slimist glimmer of good in people.

@BronzeTitan ... indeed.  Apparently I have superpowers that I was unaware of, lol.
    

I've been thinking about doing a restoration of The Terminator sometime in 2019... does anyone have the European clean master thereof?
    

@ Jetrell Fo -- Ah, then it's like a badge of honor ... like getting kicked out of all the best colleges! 
    


I too have a few invites stashed for the spleen. I usually invite those who ask for an invite. Only fair since I got a random invite after asking for one on the OT (In it's prime)
    
I have stashed invites on Spleen. But the problem is since I only have so many I'd feel bad having to choose who to invite.
    

They've got some pricky staff there and they do what they like even if their rules say otherwise.  Reminds me of a place I got banned from not so long ago.  
    

@TomArrow MySpleen is super easy to get into, you're just shit out of luck atm with the locked invites
    

At least banning for dislike is honest... very, very, very [add some more 'very' here] childish... but honest... 
    


Vinnie created the site.  I blew off my steam here.  I don't want to go back.  Thanks for caring though.  
    


My advice to any current members there ... never unknowingly prove another member is not telling the truth about something stupid ...  FFS

Well well ... such glorious holiday spirit at Blutopia .... nothing an infantile little banning can't cure, right?  LOL
    

I don't know why, but for some odd reason I'm having trouble distinguishing between kbps and Mbps in writing today.
    

I certainly do! Thanks for the generous offer! AFAIK, there's never been an OAR release.
    

@Chewtobacca it's showing again this Saturday (30th). I can record it if you want
    

@Bigrob: Wow! I'd love to get hold of that. I wonder if someone capped it or if it will air again.
    

I hope that everyone celebrating the holiday is having a good one, be safe and enjoy!!!
    

Merry Christmas everyone! Also as an FYI Film4 in the UK showed The Dawn Treader in full scope instead of open matte like the home video release
