Hello everyone,

I'm a film lover who previously worked in the film archiving and restoration industry for 15+ years.

I discovered this forum doing a search hoping to find someone who had synced the original Bad Lieutenant soundtrack to a HD or UHD copy.

This looks like a great forum. Can't wait to explore.

  Innocent Blood English Subtitle Tracks issues.
Posted by: Doctor M - 2025-10-24, 10:43 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (2)

I've had various version of Innocent Blood over the years. The one I had the longest was a DVD conversion I made of the PAL European extended cut converted to NTSC with full menus and everything.

I started watching the Warner Archive Blu-ray reconstruction of the European cut and turned it off after 20 minutes. The English subtitles are abbreviations of what's being said. I was able to check the German release and they have the same subtitle tracks (but much worse video).

Outside of doing an OCR from the DVD, checking and rechecking to make sure they're perfect .SRT and then converting them to BD SUP files... is there an easier or better way?

I don't like any of the answers and considering sticking with the DVD.

  Pearl Harbor (2001) - Japanese Cut
Posted by: Bigrob - 2025-10-24, 10:24 AM - Forum: Official and unofficial releases - Replies (3)

Was reading on IMDB that the Japanese version of the film differs in a few places compared to the theatrical cut (and presumably the director's cut)

(have posted in a spoiler below since a couple of them could be racially sensitive so didn't want to offend anyone) 


A speech by Evelyn (Kate Beckinsale) which tells how America helped win the war despite the attack at Pearl Harbor has been altered for Japanese and German releases, with the word "us" changed to "America's"

the December 7th date was changed to December 8th due to the time zone difference in Japan;

the words "Jap Suckers" changed to "Japs";

Colonel James Doolittle's (Alec Baldwin) line "Kill as many of those bastards as possible" was changed to "I myself would choose a tasty target";

Evelyn's (Kate Beckinsale) line "Before Doolittle's raid, Americans knew nothing but defeat; after it, nothing but victory" was changed to "After it, there was hope of victory";

a scene showing Japanese women in traditional kimonos and carrying parasols during Doolittle's Raid on Tokyo was omitted.


So i managed to pick up the Japanese 2 disc DVD to check it out as i assumed these changes wouldn't transition to the DVD releases

skipped to the scene where they changed the date on the calendar and compared it to the D+ stream and there it was! The Japanese version showed it changing from the 7th to the 8th due to the time zone difference of the attack.

Video Hello & Trying to understand the system
Posted by: DomaTello - 2025-10-22, 09:12 PM - Forum: Presentation - Replies (2)

Hey Im Dom,
Was just browsing after stumbling across FanRestore while scouring for a 35mm transfer of T2 and immediately am hooked.

I've been a big fan of the BR2049 Open Matte that I tracked down years ago and upgraded to the 4k Hybrid-y release a few months back but am now coming across so many incredible projects! The only thing I have made myself is some high quality upscales of the Muppets Show but I'm doubtful anyone is foaming at the mouth for those lol.

For instance, id love to see a Skyfall Open Matte I've found (which appears to have been discontinued although many have a copy?) but finding links and/or talking to the right people seems daunting. Any advice?

Cheers and happy to be here,
Dom

  Removal of Film Gate Weave
Posted by: Wak Nanook - 2025-10-20, 11:02 PM - Forum: Restoration guides - No Replies

I’ve been working on Bluray/DVD hybrids for several years now. The biggest stumbling block for me has been trying to remove the film gate weave out of the dvd footage.

I use DaVinci Resolve for my edits. I’ve tried all the stabilizations offered with the software, but without film sprocket information, it seems impossible to remove the gate weave except for frame by frame adjustments. Which I have done. It’s no fun, haha.

Does anybody have any software/procedure suggestions?
