Hey guys.
Long time no see. Lots of unread private messages... I should login more often!

So.
Here's a nice fancut I finally did thanks to the recent surfacing of a 4K scan of the legendary "helicopter in the twin towers" trailer.
Not much to say, I just edited the footage of the trailer into the film. Regraded it to make it look as close... or perhaps the least dissimilar from the rest of the film.
I know this was never meant to be part of the film, but hey, the 3 Raimi films are pretty much the only superhero movies  I can tolerate. It was tempting to do this.
The real challenge here was the audio. Thankfully, the guy included a nice 2.0 lossless pcm format track.
I followed a couple of youtube tutorials to create a 5.1 mix out of the original 2.0 using Steve Thompson's V.I plugins + audacity (32 bit only!). I did my best to match the loudness of this 5.1 audio to the rest of the film. It wasn't easy, but considering my limited skills doing this kind of stuff, I'm more than happy.
Hope you like it.

The film itself is not regraded or anything. I've seen the 35mm open matte scan that's been floating around, and I think the bluray colors are just fine.

Hi there! Found this forum via some of the other fan restoration forums out there.

Longtime lurker, finally saying hi. Star Wars (OT) nut, also obsessed with Twilight Zone. Looking forward to posting in the future.

Brand new to this forum, discovered it falling down the rabbit hole of finding out audio tracks on newer editions of many beloved films have been remixed or neutered, hoping to learn more about original theatrical mixes on dvds and laserdiscs

Hiya folks, it's me Adam Fortner, and here I am on FanRestore to restore movies and preserve them.

1994 LD [21000] PCM 2.0 decoded into 5.0 using a Shure HTS5300.  Synced to the UHD and saved as FLAC.  Another great mix from the 90s. 

PM me for link.

If anyone out there has the rare AC3 release from Taiwan, please let me know. Thanks

1992 LD [LV 1376-WS] PCM 2.0 decoded into 5.0 using a Shure HTS5300.  Synced to the UHD and saved as FLAC.  Really impressive mix.

I also have the 2003 DVD AC3 5.1 synced to the UHD, saved as FLAC, however, due to the surround channels needing to be lowered by 3db, and there being no way to do that without reencoding or saving as FLAC/PCM, so far I know. 

PM me for link.

Hi everyone. I was told I NEEDED to see the work being done here...and they were right. I am a life long filmmaker and historian. Thank you for all you do and keep it up.

1994 LD [79246] PCM 2.0 decoded into 5.0 using a Shure HTS5300.  Synced to the first HDR10 release UHD in two parts and saved as FLAC.  

I also have the 2001 DVD AC3 5.1 synced without re-encoding (again, in two parts).  

PM me for link.

Hello all!!
