If any of you are Gen X or Gen Z, if you could help my daughter out with her sociology university assignment and do a really quick survey, it would really help us out: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQ...sp=sf_link
Trainspotting's printed sequel is Porno, I guess the film producers considered that a hard sell
Does anyone know why the Trainspotting sequel has T2 in the title? It makes me do a double take every time I see it mentioned.
Anyone want to buy me one of these? http://commercialintegrator.eu/samsung-c...TaoOfColor
Oh yeah, me too. Live long and prosper! (I'd do the vulcan hand sign, but that hurts worse than the typing.)
Maybe you are right, and I will certainly not go to the theater to watch it... still, I'll take a look when available on home media.
It seems too contemporary ... like the corporate comedy-group works up a New York comedy and the boss says, "Been there, done that, a boring flop". Then the group manager jumps in. "We can put it in space! Like Star Trek! All the Trekkies will automatically love it and we won't have to rewrite a thing!" The boss exclaims, "Great idea, and it'll make me a bundle! I knew my daughter picked a winner!" "Thanks, Dad!", the manager replies.
I think The Orville is just another comedy in a Star Trek-esque universe like Galaxy Quest, and it seems funny as well!
@Jetrell Fo- Yeah, rules are best made when in consultation with the membership base.
^ ^ I'm guessing "The Orville" is NOT true "Galaxy Quest" canon? Funny in a Hollywood sort-of way, but not canon. 
@Valeyard ... it's a very grey area in that section really. It does have a majority, and make no mistake, they do rule it. Any internet site is only as good as it's admin in the end. Since it's his site, it's his rules, regardless of what rules are actually posted.
Yeah you have every right to feel disappointed. 
I didn't see any bad behaviour looking over it, although to be fair I'm not too familiar with the OT section as I avoid it.

Just look at it this way ... OT's loss is FR's gain! And your gain, too. Good luck!
No worries! it's easy! Watch this ... "!@#$%^&* %$# @^%$& !" ... 
... *taps foot*... "$%@# $#% !" ... "waits longer* ... ... *hums to self* ... ... See? Nothing! So go for it! 
... *taps foot*... "$%@# $#% !" ... "waits longer* ... ... *hums to self* ... ... See? Nothing! So go for it! I'm actually kind of fearful of using the shoutbox now. I hope everyone is doing well.
I can't decide if this is brilliance or lack of ideas. But looking at the old school workmanship, I'll go with brilliance.
They have to kill themselves if they screw this up. https://youtu.be/RudzOqb-fRc
Thanks for the heads-up! I watched my Dark Crystal BD only a week or so ago. Let's hope the series is worth watching.
I didn't know they were doing a Dark Crystal TV series on Netflix: https://youtu.be/OGzVYyV_Jsg
What's the catch? (Note that I tend to avoid torrenting sites like the plague, personally.)
A quick search with that file name brought it up, and more, at various sharing sites. There are quite a few grain variations available, of [I'm guessing] lossless video files [200MB each] to merge into your footage: fine, course, clean, dirt, hair, flicker, etc.
There is a big free grainplate pack available some where but I don't remember where, with Kodak grainplates which look very good too.
I don't remember the source, as I downloaded it years ago, but I am using something with filename of "07-COARSE_CLEAN.mov"
You should propably find just grainplate that fits you, there are plenty available online. Most of them are in 1080p/2160p, i'd Spline36Resize it do video resolution and then overlay.
Supposing the grain plate I want (as a general rule, same stock as used for the film being restored) isn't available at the size I want, what settings would you recommend for the GrainFactory3 plugin?
^ ^ ^ ^ "35mm" + "alien" = : O http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/NJQAAOSwax...-l1600.jpg
And Manhunter... I'm so jealous. And ID4 on July 4th on 35mm... I wish they had shown me THAT when I went to see "Resurgence"!
I'm tempted to go to one of the 70mm Aliens screening. I'd also love to go the the Mann-a-thon to see The Keep
Phenomina Limited Edition: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Phenomena-Limit...06WGSDG22/ - I just bought mine!
To the Britons - Alien is playing in 70mm in London in June, details here: https://princecharlescinema.com/PrinceCh...?f=2329841

Thanks for the heads-up on their new release! Grab the new manual, too. I hope they improved the interface (you know, like for a video game -- easy to learn).
Anyway, regarding the new public beta of DaVinci Resolve, Resolve 14, would laptops be able to do more than with Resolve 12.5? Or would I still need a desktop for color grading purposes?
I swear by ffmpeg. Not really an AIO solution to anything, but, hey, better than freaking codec packs.
Actually. What Poita said. I was just trying to be nice. My experiences with codec packs have left me with the feeling that codec packs should be avoided. I use ffmpeg once in a great while but it's portable and doesn't affect the whole system.
LOL! Just read those extra pages and found someone familiar! ... Never mind ...
@ AntcuFaalb - Google brought up http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Blade-R...34/page/17 . (Looks like OT keeps losing it's posters w info. Still, read a few pages for leads.)
Mhm.. very valid argument.. due to the fact that the PC is not for.. deep encoding.. maybe a DVD I own for use on my mobile phone or a networked media tank.. but no really heavy encoding.
I'd say not until you find yourself needing it. For playback just use vlc. I currently have only lags and x264/x265 installed for capturing and encoding etc.
I did, but not as much as some of the other alien films. AC is way better than Prometheus!
i think it's gone the way of the dodo. Aside from the older color-timing, which can be found on the early DVDs, I don't remember anything special about it.
Does anyone here have the 15GB or so 1080i broadcast capture of Blade Runner from 2006?
Worse, it wasn't as obvious to me as the 2002 release of My Fellow Americans in 1997 packaging turned out to be, even when I looked at the physical disc's inner ring after the fact.
OK, the actual master dates and times for the 1997 DVD of Bonnie and Clyde, both fullscreen and widescreen sides, are gonna be needed real soon from someone, because now I'm trying to figure out what the actual first WB DVD releases were, and Bonnie and Clyde is sometimes said to be one of the first.
Just to let you American fellow to know that yesterday Alien Covenant has been released in the Italian theaters... hope to watch it today! 
hope to watch it today! Happy to see you around here again, poita... sorry for everything happened lately, hope future will be brighter.
Sorry for everyone waiting on replies from me, my VDSL modem has died, I'm looking to buy a replacement, restricted to free internet at the town library at the moment!
I don't think AACS2 has been cracked. It was probably leaked by someone who handled the disc before it was encrypted for retail.
It's the only 4K-compatible gaming computer I could find at my local Best Buy (both of them), anyway.
I say it's about time! OK! Time to consider getting an Alienware Aurora as our next restoration PC!
