Yeah, I'm working on it. Give me a few days, I need to move stuff around.
It does look good but remember it is Mpeg-2 so you will get a lot of blocking

I'll patiently wait, though!
 Yes, I know it's MPEG-2, but I'm pretty confident that, when merged with the other HDTV and WEB AVC, result would be better than any single source - at least, I hope so...

OK, now I have PDB's recordings (THANSK A LOT!
 ) and started to work on this project again.I noted that initial logos (20th Century Fox, Dune, Scott Free) are cropped; should I leave them cropped, or replace them with the letterbox versions found on BD? I know for sure there are some OM versions with starting credits in OAR - as well as cropped versions... - so it's not a foolish idea. Also noted that some shots are full open matte - losing nothing on the sides (or maybe a couple pixel) adding A LOT on top and bottom, while others are zoomed in, gaining something top and bottom and losing something on the sides. Now, as I'm thinking to include a black bars hacked subtitle track, is anybody crazy enough to check which shots are which?

The whole movie is in a larger frame than BD is better not to insert a picture with black margins, here is not an IMAX edition, but this is just my opinion.

Yep, the full open matte shots - that are indeed not so full - are limited in comparison to the others, so yes, black bars would be pointless...
Sadly, the FXX version is censored; this seems to not affect only selected shots/scenes, but very often a shot on FXX has few frames missing at the end, without a particular reason... it's very hard to keep it in sync, and it would render the whole reason of using it as third frame for median purposes futile, as the missing frames/shots could not be used for that... luckily, the main English title shot is perfect, so at least it could be used for it. So, now, I'm forced to find out another source (or more) to get a good logoless version of 1HD capture...

The IMAX was 1.90:1 was it not?

At the moment, the protection of Amazon videos online is broken again and the movies are massively pumped out and uploaded to HDB tomorrow I plan to rent Prometheus on Amazon and if there OM there will be downloaded it and I'm sure it will be the best source, I also want to check and buy a movie Doctor Strange (2016) though it's expensive, but I'm also going to take a chance. Yesterday I rented the Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol movie, but alas he did not have IMAX scenes in contrast to Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) he was on Amazon with IMAX scenes
