Hoping someone can clarify something.

From my understanding, Highlander 3 got two releases on home video. A directors cut with upgraded special effects and an international cut.

Was there ever a US theatrical cut? If so, was it released anywhere?

Hi, was there a T2 (Special Edition) 4X3 DVD ever released?

There is a bad rip/capture of T2 in XviD in NTSC resolution, but PAL fps and the fps goes down to ~12 fps for some parts and I would like to know the source for this rip/cpature. Anyone know?

From the file, the resolution seems DVD quality. Thank you.

I thought this would be an interesting read for some of us: Videotapes are becoming unwatchable as archivists work to save them

They mention a tape preservationist group, anyone has ever heard of them?

This is just a quick project that apperantly will take me only few hours to finish, but decided to share.

Simply took the 720p open matte HDTV copy of Showgirls available, upscaled it to 1440p, filtered, sharpened, denoised, downscaled to 1080p, overlaid with clear Bluray copy (with reduced Chroma noise).

This just needs to be rendered now with .avisynth script and it's ready, except it'll take ~20 hours to do, so I am not in rush with doing so now

Has anyone here been watching the Twin Peaks revival? I think it's pretty good so far (although perhaps a little indulgent in the weirdness).

I wonder if there is a best way to load a 29.97fps (actually a 59.94 fields per seconds) interlaced source, divided in several parts, like a TV recorded program with commercial breaks cut away, or a laserdisc capture of several sides, and ITVC it, or if they are all the same...

Is there a cleaned, more accurate version of Jurassic Park out there?

Really interesting site you guys (and gals?) have going on here. I've only known about fanres for the last couple of years, one of my first was jerryshadoe's Last of the Mohicans which I adore, but have grown to love it, not every film, but the concept behind it as it were.

Anyway, just thought I would say hi and thanks to all that are involved with providing/sharing these gems
