Information IMAX Announces Plans for 4 New 70mm IMAX Cameras
Posted by: arriflexicution - 2022-03-20, 11:57 PM - Forum: Everything else... - Replies (2)

" In cooperation with Kodak, Panavision and FotoKem, Imax will make and deploy at least four new, state-of-the-art film cameras over the next two years — growing its existing group of film cameras by 50% — with plans to put the first new device into use by late 2023.

IMAX is working with filmmakers such as Jordan Peele and Christopher Nolan to identify new features for the prototype development phase, which is already underway. Peele’s next nightmarish film “Nope” (hitting screens on July 22, 2022) and Christopher Nolan’s upcoming war epic “Oppenheimer” (on track for 2023) were shot using the current generation of IMAX film cameras and Kodak 65mm film."

They will be quieter and lighter ( I assume that's what they mean by 'more usable' )

No word on any new 15/70 projectors but this is a huge step in the right direction that I honestly thought wouldn't happen the way IMAX INC has acted in recent years.

  Downscaling
Posted by: alleycat - 2022-03-20, 08:26 PM - Forum: Converting, encoding, authoring - Replies (2)

Wondered if anyone knew - obviously upscaling results differ between programs and settings etc. When downscaling video, say 4k to 1080p, do different programs yield different results? For example is there any difference between using the resize filter in Virtualdub and the scale in Premiere? Or are they all as good as each other? I can't see any difference but wanted to check if there in theory should be. Thanks

  Kill Bill The Whole Bloody Affair Special Edition
Posted by: alleycat - 2022-03-20, 08:09 PM - Forum: Released - Replies (10)

[Image: L89i368.png]

This video was created by faneditor TheMilkmanConspiracy. I did not touch the video in any way. This version of the The Whole Bloody Affair is as close as possible to the version Tarantino screens and does not include the Michael J White scene. In addition to upscaled SD footage from the Japanese DVDs it also includes the color House of the Blue Leaves fight sequence done by @taas007. Thanks to all involved.

What I did do was redo the audio. So here you have both the AC3 and DTS tracks from the Japanese DVDs, in addition to every special feature I could find from multiple releases. Many thanks to @MrBrown for providing me with the Japanese verison of Part 2 as I only had the Hong Kong Disc.

  • BD50 with a menu, background video, pop up menu and resume function
  • 1080P taken from the blu rays with upscaled SD inserts
  • English 5.1 AC3 and English 5.1 DTS from the Japapnese DVDs
  • English Japanese Parts Only and English SDH Subtitles
  • The Making Of Kill Bill

  A Boy Named Charlie Brown mono track
Posted by: FrankT - 2022-03-20, 06:41 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (7)

Does anyone have this track in a complete form? I gather that most video and TV versions before the Blu-ray had about 7 minutes cut from the full film. Is that available anywhere?

There is no blu ray for this movie so the video comes from a 1080p webrip. This contained quite a lot of dirt and dust so the majority of this has been removed. Added to that is the audio and special features from several DVDs. Thanks to @MrBrown for procuring the Dutch DVD for me.

Hello, nice to discover this place... I do a lot of custom audio/subtitle replacements for my own benefit, usually Hong Kong films - would love to get into regrading!

Does anyone have the US Blu-ray of Steven Spielberg's Amistad? If yes, can you please rip the trailer from it for me? The trailer is only available on the US BD. My German BD is bare bones Sad

  Under Siege (1992) German Blu-ray
Posted by: wongfeihung - 2022-03-15, 01:59 PM - Forum: Official and unofficial releases - Replies (4)

The German Blu-ray from Studio Hamburg reportedly has an English Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo track.

Does anyone know if this is the original theatrical audio or a downmix from the commonly used 5.1 remix?

Thanx.
