  Shadowlands (1993) - print sourced transfer
Posted by: NeonBible - 2021-12-30, 08:30 PM - Forum: Official and unofficial releases - Replies (8)

Caught this on TV today, and noticed the transfer was taken from a print. Specks, scratches and cigarette burns, as well as that typical look and colour.

I wondered if the Blu-ray is like that and after looking up caps it is not!

Here are some comparisons (BD caps are first):

Its available on BBC iPlayer to stream. Unfortunately they only offer 720p (in 2021 going on 2022 lol), 50fps and has a logo (but thankfully sits in the black border).

  The Ghost And The Darkness 1996 - Aspect Ratio?
Posted by: alleycat - 2021-12-30, 12:49 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (41)

Anyone know what is the story with the aspect ratio on this? Theatrically it was 2:39:1 according to imdb, but on every home video release it has been either 2:10:1 or 2:09:1. I don't really get why they would change the aspect ratio like that? 

As a test here is a frame from the blu ray which is actually 2:11:1:

And here is the same frame resized to 2:39:1:

  Ghostbusters: Ultimate Collection 4K+BD

Now with the Theatrical Stereo Mix and 5.1, and here I thought Sony would never reissue the 1st 2 films with more audio options but now that Afterlife also been announced for the same day on BD/UHD.  But $150 though for new extras, I don't know. (BTW: Same 4K master used on both MI4K's and UHD which great)
Edit(1/1/2022): It's now $99, probably a limited thing.

  The Matrix Resurrection (partly open matte)

Watching it, I thought "IF it will get no open matte version, why don't we replace the flashbacks with the open matte version?"

  Scream DC
Posted by: alleycat - 2021-12-28, 03:06 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (14)

Hi All,

So an upcoming project will be the uncut DC of Scream. I will be using the recent remastered blu ray, the Japanese/German uncut DVDs (hopefully using spoRv's PANup technique) and the audio from the laserdisc. I don't have the Japanese DVD in my hands yet but will do in the next few days, however I read somewhere that it was a port of the Laserdisc so I'm expecting the color to look largely in line with the laserdisc image.

Just wondered what people's thoughts on the color was? Initially I didn't think the Blu Ray looked to bad, perhaps a bit too bright, but on a few of the screenshots I can see quite a difference in blue/teal. Would you keep the blu ray colors or do a full regrade?

Thanks

  Disney's Tarzan (1999) Audio Track
Posted by: Doctor M - 2021-12-28, 07:00 AM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (16)

I noticed tonight that the Tarzan Blu-ray has a lossless DTS-HD MA track that is 5.0.
Yet the European discs have a lossy DD 5.1 640kbps track.

Anyone know anything of the details or quality of the LFE channel on the Euro discs?

I was pondering if the LFE track could be synced to the DTS assuming it isn't crap.
