Sin City extended cut |

Hey, guys.
Has anybody ever made an extended cut of the movie Sin City? I mean, editing back the extra footage of each story into the full movie runtime, 'cause the recut and extended versions are presented in seperate segments on DVD and Blu-ray. I'd like to see the whole thing as a movie instead of seperate 40ish-minute episodes.
Videowise, I noticed for the movie that the Japanese BD is 1.78 AR, while the US and French are 1.85.
The recut & extended stories are 1.85 AR on the US BD and 1.78 on the French one.
Audiowise, depending on the BD, there are 5.1 and 7.1 mixes for the movie, but only 5.1 for the recut and extended stories, apparently.

Nvidia Quadro |

I heard that the Nvidia Quadro line of graphics cards are suited to the task of fan restorations - they can turn a two-hour rendering job into a two-minute job. However, the latest RTX costs far more than I can spare. Does anyone here have a Quadro or something similar, and can they tell me if it's any good?

This year being the 50th anniversary of the moon landings, I thought I'd go back to this series. However, the Blu-ray has not only been cropped into widescreen (like the Signature Edition DVDs, no less!), but they also redid the CGI. I can mostly understand why, except they already upscaled some of that CGI for Pixels, apparently, and it looked good there! So I thought, perhaps I should look into upscaling the whole series as it used to be. It's quite a ways off yet - I'm lacking the resources to actually do anything substantial. Unless of course, someone else would like to try it?

It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World (1963) 1991 Cut in HD |

This is a project I've wanted to tackle for some time now, and recently I figured I better start getting ready to make or I'll let it sit on back burner forever. What I aim to do, if the thread title isn't obvious, is to recreate the 1991 restored LaserDisc cut of this classic film using the Criterion restoration of the roadshow cut as a primary video source. I grew up watching the 1991 cut on the double VHS release, and I really think that restoration, though technically less complete overall, creates a more complete film with overall better pacing.
Probably the biggest reason I wanted to do this is because the "Ray... hit him!" bit was cut from the Criterion restoration, and it's one of my favorite moments of the scene (I believe it wasn't included because they found it wasn't actually in the roadshow cut).
Anyway, I'm here to ask for help on getting the LaserDisc source in the best quality. I was planning on using a LaserDisc capture that's on MySpleen as the source, but I had trouble using a decomb filter on it (I'm not very familiar with deinterlacing methods, especially with LDs). The capture itself also seems rather poor quality compared to some I've seen of other films (heavily compressed video with a lot of composite color artifacts).
So, does anybody have a good capture of this LD, or have a good method of getting a progressive scan conversion?
