Just a lover of classic films seeking versions that preserve the originals for modernity without egregious transformation of all the actors into rubber automata.

Good day.
The name is albert.
Looking forward to see the growth of this fan restoration community.

I thank you all for the love of movies and cinema purely to share it all with others as well.
God bless.

Hi, I'm Ryan. I found this forum because of a video about cutting all the Treadstone scenes out of The Bourne Identity. I'm curious what else y'all have created and restored.

Hey everyone.

As you probably already know, the forum really could use a modern, responsive theme that works correctly on mobile devices. I've tried several over the years but everything I found had many problems and requires annoying changes, which I couldn't easily carry over multiple version updates. MyBB version 1.9 is supposed to bring modern responsive themes but its development already takes many more years than originally claimed, so we we're in kind of awkward situation. What we have is usable on mobiles, but not particularly good in my opinion

Recently I learned about Curves UI project (https://community.mybb.com/mods.php?acti...w&pid=1594). The author wants to bring modern looking UI to MyBB 1.8.x. It looks the best of any MyBB "modern" themes I've seen so far, so I decided to try it out on our forum.

At this point it's pretty much the stock theme with barely any changes. It needs many tweaks to functionality (e.g. it doesn't display the thanks button and thanks given area, some buttons are not properly styled etc,) and colors. But it seems nice and I wanted to know what you think, before I do anything else with it

So far I restricted the theme to power users group and above, because it's not ready for a "wide release" so to speak. You can change the theme in User CP -> Your Profile -> Edit options -> Board Style: Fanrestore responsive theme (Curves UI). If you check it out, please report any report issues you find in this thread

Once this new UI is patched up for our uses, I'd like to set is as default for the forum, and the old theme would remain as an option - but I will be removing the current mobile theme (MyBB Go Mobile)

I also added a plugin that displays user avatars in more places than before (last poster avatar etc), along with this new theme

Hi all, just stumbled across this site. Been a physical media collector for years, so stoked to see a forum like this. Love seeing all the work fans put into restorations, look forward to seeing what you've all accomplished!

Just to introduce myself, very happy to see resorations of full cuts of great movies

The Bourne Identity - The 'Ludlum' Cut.



This is the Bourne Identity without all of the treadstone scenes throughout the movie, until Jason Bourne discovers the truth in the final act.

This is closer to how the original novel by Robert Ludlum plays out and I think it improves the experience.

I created this edit some years ago, but thought others might get a kick out of it due to the recent You Tube video by CinemaStix

I did a fresh render and encode, as I returned to the original project files to upgrade it with the UHD.
I then promptly decided not to use the UHD as I actually prefer the Bluray, as there was little upgrade in resolution or encode quality.

Upon looking on the innerwebs there are a few 'fan edits' by others already that are very similar to this, but this is my 2 cents

Changelist

•     Added older Universal Pictures logo (Its a habit of mine)
  
•     Moved 'the Kennedy / Marshall Company' ident from the post credits to the opening of the movie.
  
•     Removed all scenes involving treadstone until the final act.
  
•     Light blanket colour correction using film contrast LUT.
