As the title asks, I don't suppose anyone here is registered on Cinemageddon are they? I only just recently discovered it but unfortunately, I can't register there since the open registration occurred like seven years ago and has been strictly invites only since. If you are registered there, is it possible I could get an invite myself? Thanks in advance!

I'm new here, but I have many years recollecting classic and old films/tv shows until the 90's.

Was a coincidence to find this awesome site, and the staff who works here, congratulations and thanks so much to do all this.

I'm administrator of a Spanish community with more than 6 thousand resource,  so if I can help here, I'm with all you!

Using the mobile version, I noted that some images are squeezed horizontally - for examples, the screenshots on the UHD BD to BD thread.

Is it just me?

I'm looking for a decent Mac DVD Ripper. I've seen a bunch, but all seem to be 5min demo types.

I was looking at MacX DVD Ripper, but their purchase page shows an image of PayPal but when I went to fill in my details, they wanted credit card details and no PayPal option. It also says 24/7 support which I've emailed, but no reply to my PayPal question.

So, what Mac DVD rippers do you use?

Hey all,

Stumbled onto this site whilst researching open matte features. Was very pleased to see a blog post I wrote regarding comparisons between grading and aspect for Terminator 2 was being discussed. Fantastic to find technical people putting together stuff, restoring and archiving stuff.

Big fan of Terminator 2, Aliens, Lost Boys, Labyrinth, Flight Of The Navigator and Tron. I have a handful of import laserdiscs and on the hunt for the ultimate UAR version of Terminator 2 (which I've seen a 2 minute version of by spoRv and was very impressed!).

Thanks for having me. Hopefully I can contribute with some of my knowledge.

Hello Everyone,

I first heard about this site from the truly impressive color-correction of Curse of Frankenstein by The Aluminum Falcon. I am very passionate about film and film preservation and am glad to be a part of this forum.

This project has been replaced with this one:

Star Trek 2 The Wrath Of Khan Regrade (Paramount Widescreen Laserdisc v1.0)

Project Info:
This is part three in my series of laserdisc to Blu-ray regrades. Taking the color of the laserdisc and applying it to the HD of the BD. ST2 came up not because the new BD is bad, in fact it's excellent outside of being a little too dark, but because the colors of the LD were very different. The LD is very warm with oranges/red and greens but also much brighter making it a sometimes a more pleasing watch. Think of this as a fun alternative to the current BD.

Just like other LD regrades, I am going to reduce the saturation of the LD a bit and tweak the reds to be less blooming.

Note: This is theatrical cut only and will be in sync with the TC BD for adding additional soundtracks and subs

(I have several of these planned, regrade to LDs or DVDs where the soundtracks are already in sync but will re-focus on the projects I have to finish soundtrack syncing soon....and MM2)

Video:
Paramount BD regraded to match the widescreen laserdisc

Audio:
1. PCM 2.0 Dolby Surround (from the widescreen Laserdisc)
3. Dolby Digital 5.1 (from the Paramount BD)

First of all, thanks to Evit for his wonderful blog about Italian dubbings: it is a precious source of info, and very funny! So, my idea is originated by his own blog.

We, not-native-speakers who watch movies (series, documentaries etc) in another language, got them usually in one of these "flavours":
- dubbed (each actor with his/her voice, normal for the Italian market, and not only)
- voiceover (usually a single voice for any actor, like the dreadful "lektor" in Poland or Russia; we in Italy usually have this for docs or news)
- subtitles (mostly used on northern Europe and in many other countries, I guess)

Now, leaving out voiceover, we (read: this forum's member) could work to fix translations errors, I guess...

Subtitles should be simplers: just fix the soft subs (or replace a "bad" one with a "right" one, like we do with audio tracks)

More difficult would be to "fix" dubbing... it is not easy to extract perfectly a voice from an audio track, yet is not impossible... still, it is quite difficult to find out one that has a voice very similar to the original dubber... but, sometimes it would (could?) be preferable to have a slightly different voice that "tells the right thing", instead a perfect voice that tells something plainly wrong/out of place...

Dunno if such kind of work is feasible and worth the hassle, but, as a fan of good dubbing (in particular of the one made some time ago, when sometimes the dubber voices were great and so similar to the original, if not better), it will be nice to fix very few wrong things to get a "perfect" dubbing...

Opinions?

Considering how I didn't even notice this for a few days, I just thought I'd make up for that now.

To keep things simple, I'm a young Californian who's into horror movies and am heavily interested in seeing workprints and fan-edits of films for the sake of viewing them.

I may not be much help when it comes to the technical aspects of all these movies so don't expect much from me. I'm just here to just enjoy the forum and see what everyone here's got to show and offer.

Also minor side note, I can't seem to send PMs and I don't know entirely know why considering how I didn't see anything about it in the rules.

Either that or I'm an idiot and skimmed over it.
