Hey guys.

Raiders is encoding, and now I'm regrading this one, as it seems the upcoming 4K will only include the final cut (even more desaturated...). 
Using that italian 35mm scan floating around as reference. As always, I'm not using luts to match the scan colors, I rather fix the flaws of the scan on the fly (a bit too magenta here, a bit too green there, too much contrast resulting in bloated colors... But I must say it looks pretty nice overall).
Theatrical cut. 

We'll see what's  included exactly in that final cut. I like the slightly longer Lecktor scene, and the naked conversation in the hotel room from the DC.

So recently, the 35mm Archive Telegram group finally got access to a big folder worth of raw Cinema DTS files and disc images, and this gave me the opportunity to finally preserve the original theatrical mix of A Bug's Life, since the original 2008 BD and later the 2020 UHD contain a new 6.1 matrixed remix of the film, likely to match Pixar's tradition of all their films being in Dolby Surround EX/DTS-ES, similar to what they did with Toy Story. I was actually planning to sync the UK Collector's Edition DTS mix with the UHD, but other things caused me to not work on it. I'd say me being hyper over this big folder is what led me to immediately do this.

Here are some notes I made while I was making this. Firstly, the Geri's Game (or jerrygm in the R14T5.txt file, making me confused it was Jerry Maguire lol) short is missing on Reel 1, due to it being included as part of the trailers reel, which means that I was able to start the first frame of the film perfectly as the first shade of blue appears when the Disney logo fades in, probably being that this is the ACTUAL first frame after 2 seconds after the 2-pop to comply with SMPTE standards. Next is that every reel transition is interesting to work on, because there seems to be 60ms of silence at the beginning of each reel, so I patched it with the first seconds of the next reel from the previous reel before it goes to 2-pop to signal the end of the reel, just so I don't make it sound odd. The only instances I didn't do it is at the end of reels 1 and 5, since reel 1 seems to have a quick millisecond fade out to silence before the next reel, and on reel 5 since even on the first seconds of that reel at the end of reel 4 has an awkward audio cut, so I fixed it to prevent any chorus effect. I do know there does exist a duplicate of reel 5 to include the second set of outtakes, but since the UHD only includes the first set like on the previous releases, except for the VHS (which includes both), I used the original reel 5 instead. Also, it seems that this is a post-1999 revision, so the LFE has been increased to 6 dB, based on what I compared to the 2008 BD mix, especially why it also has the alternate reel 5 as well. Also, the rear+LFE channels recieved a 60ms delay, so I fixed it.

So guys, a crazy thing happened, I found hidden in a crate my old The Warriors Pal VHS from the 80's with the alternate (I think) soundtrack version. I need to check it, but it's certainly that one.

Is there a sync already out there, or should I make this a project, and rip it? I will need someone though to sync it as real life have me a bit off the scene regarding syncs these days.

Hello everyone,
I’ve managed to get an open matte version of Evil Dead, I’m trying to do a color regrade to try to match the look of the Japanese LaserDisc released by Herald Videogram. I only have small clips and photos of this version. Does anyone know where I can get a complete version? I’ll leave you a link to a clip where you can see the color correction I’ve done on the forest attack scene.
Best regards to everyone

I own the 2005 US widescreen and fullscreen DVDs, the 2005 US 2-disc Deluxe Edition DVD set, and 2009 US Blu-ray of Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005). I know that the DVD editions are of the approximately 1hr 55min theatrical cut while the HD-DVD and Blu-ray editions are of the over-1hr-55min extended cut.
Cinema DTS audio exists for the theatrical cut. Could someone possibly find the Cinema DTS CD of the movie on eBay, buy and rip it, convert the audio to a DTS-HD Master Audio track with the rear surrounds' decibels properly adjusted, and sync it up to the theatrical cut so I can use it in my future 1080p fan reconstruction of the theatrical cut?

I'm really glad I found this place, hello to everyone

Input Soundtrack: 192kbps AC3, Stereo
Output Soundtrack: 16-bit, 48khz, Mono

While Arrow did use this same DVD as the source for their mono, they unfortunately neglected to disable ac3 dynamic range control when transcoding it.

Please thanks and PM for access
