Hi from Italy

[Weird Ed]

Hi everyone

I've discovered this forum thanks to a post in Originaltrilogy.com: I was lookin' for a regraded version of Aliens (hate the greenish tint of the bluray). I've followed PDB's project, and here I am. I don't have much experience with video editing, mostly audio muxing of italian tracks - yep, italians love their dubbing, it's like a side passion (we know most voice actors by name) - or upmixes. 

The recent flow of 35mm restorations is incredibly fascinating to me. I've been lucky enough to see lots of masterpieces in the theater (Indy and the Last Crusade, E.T., the Goonies, Army of Darkness, Starship Troopers) but I wish I had seen much more, and I truly believe the perfect restoration should always aim to reach this final goal: recreate the original experience. If that means havin' some grain, some speckles, even cigarette burns in the corner... I don't mind. And of course color grading is very important, and often overlooked.

Glad to be here, gonna browse some threads!

Hi Weird Ed, welcome to FanRes. I read in another post that you are a regular of my blog, so you must already know a thing or two about preservation and restoration. I hope you'll enjoy yourself around here, all we talk about is that. ;-)

Thanks PDB and Evit  Yep, I'm not exactly a newcomer, but some of the projects that I've found here are simply incredible... like Alien - Fundamental Collection (a D-Theater master? Where? How?).
