Welcome to insanity, guys. Brace yourselves.

As many of you probably already know, there's this thing called the Mandela effect that have people claiming to have collective memory of things of the past that the current official world claims never existed. I don't care about the validity of either claim, sci-fi parallel reality theories, conspiracies and such. I'm just interested in the so-called movie Shazaam starring Sinbad that some claim was released before the Kazam movie starring Shaquille O'Neal that some claim is the reason why many people get confused. I already read all about it, seen videos on the subject, the April fool video Sinbad made around 2017 to mock the situation, the fake VHS covers and labels someone fabricated, etc. I seem to remember that it did exist back in the day though, although I never saw it, neither the Shaq one for that matter, as I was already too old to watch kid movies, but to me it was one of those movies with a similar concept such as Volcano and Dante's Peak or Armageddon and Deep Impact for instance and I'm pretty sure I saw it on a shelf in videostores in the 90s. So I figured, since this forum is international and dedicated to film history and preservation, if it did in fact exist, maybe somebody here has a VHS of it, either a real edition or a TV recording. Yep, insanity, I told you!

I am new to this and enjoy all the projects. Edit: Forgot to say:

Love the absolute creativity and dedication that fan edits/restos highlight. Glad to be here!

I just discovered this site and have been blown away by the work on here. I really want to do some digging and potentially contribute what I can to the work being done.

Hi everyone,

French here, old enough to have experienced the Batmania in 1989. Glad to be here, with all your energy around.

After reading @Turisu's excellent thread on Jurassic Park mixes, I decided I wanted to throw my hat in the ring and make what I believe to be the definitive version of this historic audio mix.

Using a bit-perfect capture of the DTS Laserdisc done by a good friend of mine, I correctly attenuated the surround channels to -3db and tried my best to match the LFE to the R6 DVD (though in execution I think I got it closer to the V1 R1 DTS DVD but according to Turisu both are more or less correct). In addition I synced this fixed track to the 2025 UHD from the Trilogy set as it currently has the best PQ, No idea if it'll sync to the previous UHD since there's a 16 frame difference between the two but knowing Universal it might just need a delay. Available in 24-bit 44.1kHz FLAC 5.1, to all forum members new and old.

Interesting Note: For my syncs, I typically use the latest mix of a film available on the source I'm syncing it to, In this case the DD 5.1 backup track on the Trilogy UHD. However during my syncing process I quickly noticed that the dialogue was out of sync with the DTS LD track while the music & effects were in perfect sync with each other. It seems the new Dolby Atmos mix has offset dialogue when compared to previous mixes as not even the DTS:X track from the previous UHD had this quirk.

Hi all! 

its great to be here im a fan of restorations and preserving original films. 

Id like to learn more!

Anyone has this LD and can do a capture (Audio and Video)?
None of the DVD/BD/4K have the original mono mix. Only the 5.1 mix is available.
I'd like to sync the audio to the Blu-ray.

hi looking forward to cobra 1986 extended
