Video 2001: A Space Odyssey, remastered in 8K from the original 70mm negative
Posted by: metahades - 2024-05-01, 01:00 AM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (11)

Hello dear friends.

Do you have contacts or knowledge to be able to obtain a capture of the NHK BS8K channel in Japan?

Since 2018, this film and others have been broadcast on that channel, there are only a few days left until the new premiere, if it is not achieved by now, it could still be considered to capture it in the future, in addition, they also broadcast other content in 8K.

I attach the original post, where they mention the 2001 broadcast: A Space Odyssey.

https://twitter.com/amass_jp/status/1784543441751531945

Post in Japanese:
NHK BS8K『8K完全版 2001年宇宙の旅』が5月5日(日)放送。映画史にさん然と輝く、巨匠スタンリー・キューブリック監督の傑作SF映画。70ミリで製作された超大作のオリジナル・ネガをもとに8K化し、修復を行った8K完全版

Chat GPT Translate:
"HK BS8K will broadcast '2001: A Space Odyssey' in its entirety in 8K on May 5th (Sunday). This masterpiece science fiction film directed by the maestro Stanley Kubrick shines brilliantly in film history. Utilizing the original negatives of the epic produced in 70mm, it has been remastered and restored into an 8K complete version.

  Hawaii (1966) Roadshow
Posted by: Doctor M - 2024-04-30, 04:46 AM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (5)

Like the Alamo, the Roadshow cut of this film is lost. Twilight Time did include it in SD as a bonus feature on their Blu-ray, but it could probably use being cut together with the theatrical cut.

I'm not screaming for this... mostly because I've never seen either cut of the movie. Still it's Julie Andrews and Max Von Sydow and I'd prefer to watch the Roadshow first, but I can't find it anywhere.

  What, you think you're some kind of Jedi, waving your hand around like that?
Posted by: CinelikeSav27 - 2024-04-28, 02:52 PM - Forum: Presentation - No Replies

Howdy! Love watching movies, own loads on Blu-ray and DVD. Criterion, Disney, Kino Lorber, Cinerama, etc. I just can't get enough!

And yes, I'm a Star Wars fan (original trilogy and prequel, along with Rogue One)

Looking to not only add restoration projects to my hard drive, but also share some projects that I've been hoping to work on.

If anyone knows how to upscale DVD to Blu-ray quality, please let me know!

  Pokemon The First Movie-US Theatrical Version HD Reconstruction
Posted by: Weskerredfield3 - 2024-04-22, 01:40 AM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (5)

Hey Everyone, 

I Am in the Progress of doing an HD Reconstruction of the US Theatrical version of Pokemon The First Movie; As according to the WB DVD Release. It is the Only release that i know of that includes the Full Theatrical Version of the film, Having Pikachu's Vacation before the Film. However, that DVD is in 4:3 Full screen and not in the proper Widescreen aspect ratio. The US Blu-Ray from Viz has the proper aspect ratio for the Movie, but it does not have Pikachu's Vacation. So, I decided to do a reconstruction of the Full US Theatrical Cut using the Video From the Viz Release, With SD inserts from the DVD when necessary mainly for the Pikachu's Vacation short due to there not being an existence of an HD Version of the Short to my knowledge. The only thing I am replacing is the Kids WB, Nintendo and 4kids Logos that appear before the start of the Movie, Since those don't have any HD Versions; Those will be replaced with the Period appropriate WB Logo.

Now, The Biggest question i have is the Aspect Ratio for Pikachu's Vacation. Was it animated in Widescreen, Or was it Animated in 4:3 and Cropped to Widescreen when it was shown Theatrically? I Want this to be as Theatrically accurate as i can make it except for the Logos as i mentioned.

I also do want to add the Dolby Digital 5.1 Track that was on WB's DVD, but Syncing audio is not my expertise. 

Any Help/Advice would be appreciated

hey everyone

found this forum after digging into the weeds of blah-ray's excellent work on his blog, along with acquiring a laserdisc player and forming a small collection of titles. would love to contribute audio rips whenever i get the necessary audio interface (looking at the focusrite scarlett 2i2, which i loaned from a friend for a period to rip cassette/vinyl for another forum).

the amount of work that I've seen here so far (which is little i bet) is amazing! in awe of your dedication. i hope to be of help soon!
