hi!, just found this site and im really happy to be here, I collect mostly Japanese Laserdiscs, as well as things like The 72 uncut VHS tapes so happy to add where I can

Hope everyone is doing well!  Great to be here!

i have recently gotten back into Laserdiscs and 35mm after some mind boggling demoz opened my eyes (and ears!).

looking forward to new experiences!

Hi there, 


I'm Gammelkasten, also known as MrK at some forums. Since I'm working as projectionist at one of the last analogue cinemas in germany I'm a big fan of analogue film, scanning prints and restoring unique versions of films. I've specialized myself in restoring old and german dubs of movies wich were misstreated by the major labels in the last years.

Looking forward to be a part of this community.

New user here. Interested in 35mm and Fanres projects.

I watched the 25th Anniversary DVD tonight and researched to find out there is no Blu-ray with the restored 139 minute cut, just the 117 minute theatrical version.

I did read that for a time the master for the DVD had an iTunes HD stream made from it that's no longer officially available anywhere.

Anyone know of or working on a restoration using that and the Blu-ray? It's just a shame this movie seems to have been mistreated by Disney.

Heya! 
New to the site and I'm excited to check out all the things you amazing people have released here. 
Anyway... if you read this have a wonderful day!  

Greetings from Switzerland!

I'm not great at introductions but this is one of the few forums that i came across that i noticed has open matte formats for a lot of my favorite movies. Films have been a hugh part of my life since a kid and watching them in all their glory is nothing short of a dream come true. I would love to contribute and learn more about the process at play here and meet like minded folks while I'm at it. Cheers

Does anyone happen to have the Hellboy (2004) DC and the Starship Troopers 2002 DVD isolated score and composer commentary tracks? I'm planning to sync those tracks to the UHD Blu-Rays of those films since they didn't include it along with the other extras.

I'm planning to make a definitive version of Pan's Labyrinth, which blu-ray has the best picture quality, the Criterion blu-ray has a 2K master approved by director Guillermo Del Toro while I heard that the Optimum blu-ray has the best image quality and is open matte 1.78, while the 5.1 audio had audio pitch issues that can be easily fixed, which blu-ray should I take the video from? The UHD is out of the picture as it has some DNR.
