That is great news. I still wouldn’t blame you for not sharing again.
That is great news. I still wouldn’t blame you for not sharing again.
Are you talking about this?
https://www.b98.tv/video/little-go-beep/It seems that it’s ONLY ever been released in Academy ratio, as that’s what comes up when I google it…
Also, you keep referring to things as “print.s” this is misleading because it implies actual film prints. Just say versions in the future…
The Super Stars DVD has both a 16:9 cropped version and a 4:3 version to choose from.
I have no idea why anyone would choose the cropped version to watch.
This really is a fantastic restoration. When you compare the raw scans with the finished
video you can see how much work was put into this.
The audio is mono on the amzn .
if the LD is not available there’s plenty of dvd versions out there with the stereo mix
I bought a laserdisc copy from ebay.
Having lossless stereo tracks (with dolby surround encoding)
will be much better than a lossy mono track.
Did anyone get ahold of the LD? I can sync the audio to the remastered version - if its any better
Has the audio from the streaming release had complaints?
I don’t know about complaints, but the audio from the laserdisc would be lossless.
here is a comparison of the video of the US vs UK streaming versions.
Fanastic! I would love a copy of the blu-ray ISO.
I’m in.
I have multiple versions of all three Rene Laloux animation movies.
La Planete Sauvage (Fantastic Planet)
Maitres du Temps (Time Masters)
Gandahar
All three are now available on Blu-ray and Gandahar is available in 4K as well.
Two out of three do not include an English soundtrack.
My goal was to create the best version of each movie with an English soundtrack.
The Criterion release of Fantastic Planet was the only Blu-ray available with an English dub
but the coloring was terrible and the English audio was Dolby Digital at 192 kbps.
I used the video from the German release from Camera Obscura and synced the lossless
English audio from a PAL DVD. It now has French and English Audio plus English subtitles.
For Time Masters I used the video from the Japanese Blu-ray from TC Entertainment.
The only English dub of this movie was from a BBC broadcast that luckily was recorded
by someone years ago and shared. I synced this audio with the Japanese release.
It now has French and English audio plus English subtitles.
Gandahar was the toughest of the bunch. It has never been released with a proper English dub.
There is an English version of Gandahar called Light Years that was re-edited for US release
so I used the audio from my laserdisc release of Light Years.
For the video I used the new release from Le Chat Qui Fume.
Light Years is a different edit than Gandahar so the dialogue needed
to be synced in pieces. There was also a small amount of missing dialogue.
I ended up using AI text to speech software to recreate the missing dialogue.
I did the best I could and it turned out better than I expected.
I should also point out that the Light Years score is different than Gandahar.
Gandahar is now available in 4K and HD with a French and English soundtrack
plus French, English and Spanish subtitles.
For the US fans I also created a 4K and HD version of Light Years
using the opening and closing credits from my laserdisc plus the audio from
my laserdisc and edited the new video to match the Light Years edits.
The MKV files are large because I did not compress the video. I prefer quality over smaller
file sizes. You can always download them and compress the video yourselves.
If you are interested in any or all of these versions you acknowledge that you already have
the releases I used and that the downloads are for personal use only.
I will only be offering these for a limited time and then it will be up to other people to share them.
Hello! I am also requesting the 1998 version. My dad lost my original VHS copy and I’ve been dying to hear the version I grew up with one more time 😂
Did you try the link cuddlyhawk provided? Wondering if it is safe/what it claims to be.
At 974 MB it isn’t going to be very good quality even if it is real.
excelente
I have both the bluray and a vhs copy of Lord Of The Rings. It should be a simple edit. I’ll do it
sometime this week when I have time.
I hadn’t noticed the change in the narration at the end. I did replace the audio from my Return Of The King
and Hobbit animated movies with the VHS audio because there were a bunch of missing sound effects.
I have Asterix and Cleopatra with English audio and full screen in HD but I don’t know if there is missing
footage. Could you tell me what to look for?
The entire series is streaming on Disneyplus.
I downloaded it two days ago. It took a while after syncing with some peers for
the downloading to start but it worked fine. I watched some of the movie yesterday
and it looks really nice.
What a difference!. I would definitely like a link to this one.
Thanks in advance.
I just made an account to follow this project. I never watched this movie growing up but my wife did, she says “it’s good, but not my favourite”. Well, we tried to find it on Disney Minus and that led me down a rabbithole of the sad history of this , mishandled, underappreciated movie. Now I’m obsessed, and just watching the movie won’t be enough, i need to see the best possible version just to spit in Disney’s face.
This is the project I am waiting for.

I would appreciate a link too. Thanks in advance.
That is great news. Looking forward to the 4K. Good luck with Myspleen.
Looking good. Keep up the good work.
Is there a way to rip a prime or iTunes purchase?
There is, but I would need access to the UK sites.
I’m hoping it will be released on Amazon Prime or iTunes
in the US.
Just checked Amazon US. All they have is Slipstream (Restored Edition)
480 x 640 23.976 fps and low bitrate.Not sure how it would work but you could try VPN on UK servers and try it that way maybe?
It doesn’t work. I would need to pay with a credit card that comes from a UK bank
and shows that I live at a UK address.
Just checked Amazon US. All they have is Slipstream (Restored Edition)
480 x 640 23.976 fps and low bitrate.
This is definitely my go to version now. I have lost count of how many versions I have had.
I started off with a dvd made from a transfer of a PAL VHS tape. Next up was a laserdisc transfer
that had hard encoded subtitles. Then, finally transfers from film that have gotten progressively
better.
Maybe one day Disney will release a proper official 4K version but I’m not holding my breath.
Thanks for your work on this one CMGF.
Am I correct that Snow White has a 1080p Blu-ray sourced from the same remaster as the 4k UHD?
Yes, I just received my 4k copy today and the Blu-ray that comes with it has the same remaster.
Also there is no info about a mono audio track on the box but there is an English track that
is DD 2.0 that might be it. I’m not expert enough to listen to it and be sure. Why a 4K disc
would have a lossy track instead of lossless is another question.
The DVD is available on Ebay for $25.52 US right now.
The color version is available on Amazon Prime in 1080p.
The HD color version could be converted to B&W and upconverted scenes from the DVD edited in.
I’m not sure how not living in the U.S. would affect you.
