This thread is looking at the possibility of a regrade of Mad Max. Seems like old versions of Mad Max had more colorful and saturated colors. In fact it looks more in line with the DVD of MM2. Stamper's example here:

This thread is looking at the possibility of a regrade of Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. Among the many problems the picture has, Stamper points out blown out whites (losing the blue skies) and excessive DNR, particular in this scene:

Should I color correct the DVD material to the HDTV version? I think it looks way more vivid and just better.

Sometimes clicking on them works, sometimes it doesn't. Pretty sure I've white listed every aspect of this site with my browser's pop up and script protection.

OK, OT should be the right place to post this kind of things, but as it's not possible for the moment to post there, and because I'm afraid to forget to do it there in the next days    I decided to post here, also because it could interest some members here...

As many of you know, SW BD quality is good, but not "outstanding" as many "outsiders" (read: out of fan restoration circles) thinks... also, many "insiders" think that HDTV versions of SW have worst quality in comparison to BD...

Well, I'm posting here three comparisons, and leave comments to you; the HDTV "mix" is, well... a mix? between two HDTV sources, one MPEG2 29.97fps 1080i, and the others from AVC 23.976fps 1080p (surely taken from 25fps 1080i); the mix+grainplate is... you know, the latter with a 35mm grain plate slapped over it...

"Feature additions and modifications" have been merged with "Suggestions" and "Announcements" have been moved to a new forum category at the top.

Let me know if you hate the change.

Fanres now has a basic mobile version.

It doesn't have our distinctive red theme and a couple of tiny things like "Thanks" button. They're on to-do list, sometime in the future
