Hey everyone
Came here in search to PM someone about something I saw him post on another site (but I can't register for that site due to a technical issue they need to sort). Anyway, had a browse around and think I'll stay. I love the passion here.
I've been cleaning up audio on VHS conversions of 80's/90's wrestling broadcasts origiinally recorded on VHS, with mostly positive results. I may just stick around and help/get help where possible.
I'm a dab hand in TMPGEnc Authoring Works and I'm starting to learn Adobe Premiere too.

This was the first project I did and the menu structure has evolved slightly since then, plus for V1 I didn't use the original Criterion chapter stops and finally when I did the colour correction I applied just one LUT to the entire project, this time I have redone the correction using 47 LUTs.
- BD25 with animated menus that look and behave like the official Criterion discs, with a background video, pop up menus and resume function
- Video taken from the HDTV broadcast, with scene by scene colour correction
- Original chapter stops used on the Laserdisc
- English 5.1 EAC3 from the HDTV Broadcast
- Commentary track with the Directors The Hughes Brothers, Larenz Tate, Keith David, Lisa Rinzler, Dr Todd Boyd and Ari Merretazon
- English, French, German and Spanish Subtitles
- Deleted Scenes and Storyboard sequences
- Vintage Featurette
- Trailer and TV Spots
- The Real Anthony, Ari Merretazon, Today
- Dr Boyd's Guide to Blaxploitation
- Al Green in Pimpstrumental Color
- Issac Hayes Walk On By Music Video
- Laserdisc Credits

Just to clarify this is a project that I have made for myself which I am choosing to share. If you don't like the project, if you think it should have been done differently then feel free to keep that to yourself and consider doing your own project.

Only one print of this film is known to exist - and it might be possible to scan it!
From the Lost Media Wiki:
Santo Gold's Blood Circus, produced in 1985 by Santo Victor Rigatuso (aka Robert "Bob" Harris), is a sci-fi movie about man-eating aliens from "Zoran" invading Earth and their clash with professional US and USSR wrestlers. Rigatuso, playing the character of Santo Gold in a scene recorded at the Baltimore Civic Center, performs a song before the film's climactic brawl. The lyrics, however, have nothing to do with the film, and are about Rigatuso's Santo Gold business.
The film starred a few professional wrestlers from WWF (now WWE), and was made on a budget of 2 million dollars. It was promoted through infomercials for Rigatuso's Santo Gold mail-order jewelry business.
In 1987, after 2 years of editing the film, Rigatuso was having trouble finding a distributor for it, and decided to rent a few local cinemas and screen it himself over the course of one week (although he only held a few showings, and the film didn't gross anywhere near its 2 million dollar budget). "Scream Bags" were also given out at the screenings as a promotional tie-in, each side of the bag sporting a long poem about Blood Circus, with one of the sides containing a coupon for a free diamond ring from Santo Gold.

If we can get together $600, we might be able get this bizarre cinematic oddity preserved for the future!
So, a bit of backstory. The individual who owns this print recently offered a number of prints for rental for scanning - including the print of The Keep which was also recently posted to this forum. This print is also part of that individual's collection, but we've been told by the middleman in this situation that due to its rarity we'll only be able to continue forward with seeing if we can get this print scanned if we can demonstrate there is enough interest.
As such, if you have any interest in donating to make this happen, please post below or PM with the amount you would wish to donate. We're not collecting yet, but if there's enough interest we might just be able to get this print scanned.
Current totals: $100/$600:
zxthehedgehog/zxtheproto (Self) - $50
ThrowMeTheWhip (SWT) - $50

| The Keep (Michael Mann, 1983) – 35mm Scan |

Well after gathering a bit of data, it seems there's the most amount of support for a preservation scan of The Keep as of right now, and I can most certainly understand why given its rough history when it comes to proper home media releases–or the lack thereof.
Though it may not be the original Michael Mann cut people wish to see or an official HD release that doesn't recycle the laserdisc master, we have the next best thing thanks to a collector friend: A theatrical release print.
So doing some quick rough calculations, the movie is 96 minutes, making the scanning cost $480 with an appended $200 for renting the print itself, roughly $75 for one-way shipping, bringing us to approximately $830 total in costs–in theory.
So, getting the ball rolling, I will be merely holding pledges for the time being. Once we get enough pledges to approximate the cost, I'll look into how to handle actual donations and we'll see how things will go from there.

| Star Wars I...VI UHD-BD vs BD - size and resolution |

Thoughts based on comparisons found on Caps-a-holic: https://caps-a-holic.com/index.php?s=star+wars
I do not take in account contrast (due to wrong HDR-to-SDR conversion, I hope) or colors here, but only frame size and resolution.
EP I, II, III: UHD-BDs have the exact same resolution of BDs, but have a tiny less image on both top and bottom, and both sides are slightly cut and stretched.
EP IV: UHD-BD has higher resolution than BD, and more image on both left and right, but less on top and bottom.
EP V: UHD-BD has higher resolution than BD, but less image on all sides.
EP VI: UHD-BD has higher resolution than BD, and more image on left, but less on right, top and bottom.
