hi, joined because of my interest in fan restoration, especially those focused in the updating of subtitles in languages that differ from the original.

I have come for the bourne ludlum cut!

hello!
happy to find such a site.
warm regards.

I've only joined this forum to get my hands on the theatrical cut 35mm grindhouse print of Highlander II.
I hope someone here finds a film print of the movie Stepfather II: Make Room For Daddy (1989), so it can one day be released.

Hey, guys.

The past two nights, I've been reconstructing the open matte theatrical cut of The Frighteners using mostly the open matte director's cut remastered 1080p Blu-ray from the German UHD+BD pack, and the AMZN/STARZ open matte theatrical cut of the old master. I also used the movie-censorship website as a guide. Some shots, exclusive to the theatrical cut, were taken from the old master, others more complete on the old master were used as well, since the change of masters would stick out mid-shot, plus the framings are different between the two masters. In fact, the old master is often more generous in its openness, but the remaster looks healthier, naturally defined with no edge enhancement. Obviously, I did my best with color correction and cutting back a bit on the edge enhancement of the old master parts I used so that they blend in better. And finally, I had to use the old master for the bright shots in heaven during the climax, because the 1080p SDR remaster is overly bright in the highlights, beyond repair (see examples below). The UHD HDR is fine in those shots but not open matte, so I couldn't use it.




Audiowise, I plan to include the English and German tracks from the UHD+BD pack, plus the English and French tracks from the Universal Blu-ray.
I couldn't find a lead to a Laserdisc or theatrical dts track that was ever synchronized by anyone here. Does anybody have anything relevant to provide in that department?

Subtitlewise, I plan to include the English and German tracks from the UHD+BD pack, plus French subtitles that I will rearrange from the original file.

Hy guys. Glad to be here.

Hello everyone,👋
I’m interested in fan custom rips with audio tracks from VHS and LaserDisc sources. I don’t have a big collection yet, but I hope to build one over time.
I’ve seen that several people here create custom repacks, and I want to thank them for all the work they do. They dedicate a huge amount of time to bring us these films, and a simple thank-you can really encourage them to keep going!🫡

Hi.

I happened upon a YouTube upload of an old kung fu movie that's stuck in rights hell. The movie has had DVD releases but in either full screen or cropped widescreen. The YouTube upload is a Japanese VHS that's actually wider than the UK DVD. It may be OAR or at least the closest to it.

YouTube makes it harder to contact uploaders, so in lieu of somehow arranging a higher quality source to work from or trying to find an original copy of the tape, is it worth working with a YouTube rip?

For what it's worth, the letterboxed DVD of this one did get a well done fan restoration/upscale. It looks quite nice, but I'd be lying if I didn't say it'd be nice to see the movie in a less cropped state.

Appreciate any feedback or thoughts.
