Can someone confirm if any the Blu-rays or DVDs contain the 70mm mix as 5.1?

  "Kill Bill", single-film version, Film Whisperer restoration (UPDATE)
Posted by: The Film Whisperer - 2023-11-20, 10:15 PM - Forum: Released - Replies (2)

Please check out my other projects, via the link in my signature! And PM me for link requests!
Do you believe in what I do? I appreciate donations (links/info in my signature)

Kill Bill, single-film version (aka 'The Whole Bloody Affair'), Film Whisperer restoration
I'm certain that I am not the only person on this site to release this project. But I hope it can be said that I released THE BEST version!

There's not much to say. I'm sure you all know by now Quentin Tarantino intended for "Kill Bill" to be one big long film, but Saint Harvey Weinstein persuaded him to cut it into two films.

Tarantino premiered his single-film version at his own personal movie theater in 2011, but it is still not released officially.

I restored it according to notes left by critics who saw it.

According to critics who saw it, it's basically the extended Japanese version of the 1st film (ever only released on DVD in Japan and is now out-of-print) combined with the 2nd film.

However, according to critics who saw it, Tarantino made a few changes:
  1. "Volume 1" ends right after "The Bride" (we don't know her name yet at this point in the film) tells Sophie "I want them all to know that soon they'll all be as dead as O-Ren"
  2. The "epilogue" at the end of "Part 1" with Hattori Hanzo's words has been cut
  3. Also, the part where Bill asks Sophie if the Bride knows that her daughter is alive is cut. This, I assume, is meant to make it a surprise for the audience that her daughter is still alive.
  4. The silly "Volume 2" intro where "The Bride" tells the audience (in a very cheesy demeanor) about what happened in "Volume 1" is cut. The film simply transitions into the "Chapter 6" title card.

So, what makes my version special?
As I've said before, I'm hardly the first to create this version of "Kill Bill". But I hope that I've added a little something special.

A Japanese-spekaing friend of mine helped me translate the two Japanese songs by Meiko Kaji that play in the film. The first is "The Flower of Carnage", which plays right after O-Ren gets the top of her head chopped off. The second is is "Grudge Song", which plays during the end credits.

Fun fact: these two songs are from the Japanese film "Lady Snowblood", starring Meiko Kaji herself. "Kill Bill" was heavily influenced by "Lady Snowblood".

I also translated the Spanish-language song "Malaguena Salerosa ('Beautiful woman from Malaguena')", performed by Chingon, which plays during the end credits.

Why did Tarantino include this song in the film? DON'T KNOW!

I also created REMOVABLE subtitles that are meant to imitate how they look on the theatrical version. Well, technically, I based their style, color, font, and placement on how they look on the VOD version. The blu-ray versions of both films do not have burnt-in subtitles.

SPECS
File format: MKV
File size: 50.93 GB

Audio
  • #1.) 2.0 LPCM
  • This track is the superior track. For some reason, the 5.1 LPCM tracks from the blu-rays leaned a little to heavy on one side during dialog. I don't quite have the skills to fix this problem.
    I promise you, this track sounds very good!
  • #2.) 5.1 LPCM

Subtitles
all subtitles for the Japanese/Cantonese/French dialog are meant to imitate the same look (in terms of style, font, size, color, and placement) as they do on the theatrical version, which I based on the VOD versions of this film.
  • #1.) FPO (foreign parts only) with song translations
    This does not translate any of the English songs
  • #2.) All dialog SDH
    lyrics for the English songs included
  • #3.) Foreign dialog only
    This for those of you who prefer to not have any translations of anything else except for the non-English dialog.

Update 11/22/2023

I have broken up the film into 97 smaller zip files. Hopefully you all know how to do download them and then use an "expander".

Question Help regarding identifying Up-mix/Down-mix if the original is present
Posted by: GjRedo - 2023-11-18, 09:27 AM - Forum: Audio and video editing - Replies (6)

Hello folks! 1st time posting & English isn't my native language. So please excuse any mistake.

Suppose there is a 2.0 & a 5.1 track present in a BD. The 5.1 is actually the Upmix of the 2.0 track. The BD publisher didn't specify the upmix. Now even if you downmix the 5.1 upmix using eac3to, it's identical to the original 2.0 track. Since it's identical how do you determine that the 5.1 is actually the Upmix not 2.0 is actually the downmix?

Is there anything unique in Pure 5.1, that by examining the upmixed 5.1 one, you can tell that's it's upmix? Or there are other factor? or There is nothing to do except guess?
