Night Of The Living Dead Criterion Blu-Ray Release - 2016 Copyright at end of film

[Valeyard]

Hi, Guys. I wondered if anyone would want to fix the added 2016 copyright at the end of the NOTLD Criterion BD? I ask because the film looks amazing and is for sure the best release to date… but a 2016 copyright is splattered on the screen as the bodies burn at the very end. Kinda takes me out of the film. Petty I know but it is what it is. I am not quite up to the task but I would think lots of people here could do it pretty easily and fast. All that would need to be done is to patch out the copyright with perfectly aligned HD footage from another BD release. Maybe slight color correction. I have the video to work with if anyone would like to do this project.


PS: And yes I know why the 2016 copyright was placed there… to copyright the new restoration done lately. No need to explain that part.

Actually, they can't copyright a restoration. This was 🔍discussed on OT. Night of the Living Dead is public domain, so is the Criterion restoration. Their copyright notice is frivolous.
