Just quickly checked and Sky’s version is the 2.4:1. No expansion in the IMAX shots.

Is that what Sky are playing on TV or the one in the Sky Store?

In any case, looks like we have to somehow make do with the HBO one…

I checked the version they’ve downloaded to the boxes, plus the one screening on Sky Cinema Premier. I haven’t purchased it from the Sky Store, but I’d guess it’s the same.

Ah, just as I suspected. I had the Sky Store version when that became available over the summer and that’s 2.40 as well, hence why I asked.

So yeah, HBO it is. No idea how to rip the HBO NOW stream except for the obvious screen capture method.

PlayOn only downloads 720p or less. Plus, the stream will be switching between 720p and SD resolutions mid-download,unless one has better set-up or something.

Nobody’s said anything in two months. I think we’ll take it. Even if only as a temporary.

I don’t think HBONow is hosting BVS anymore. They only keep movies for about a month.

Okay, this is the same broadcast master as HBO NOW so that’s our best shot.

One option, which may mean waiting, is Cinemax in US. Very often, Cinemax starts broadcasting the films once they are finished being broadcast on HBO. In the case of X-Men: Days of Future Past, Cinemax showed the Rogue Cut, while HBO showed the theatrical. Perhaps this may happen again with BvS. It will take some time to see.

But the problem is that there (not that I’m aware of anyway) wasn’t a 16:9 master done for the extended cut, only for the theatrical.

Maybe we’ll be surprised. Just a possibility. We’ll have to wait and see.

Looks like someone did manage to rip the broadcast master - http://batman-news.com/2017/08/16/batman-v-superman-imax-footage-leaks-online-in-hd/

EDIT: ok - basically back at the start of July a group of Russians did exactly what I planned to do here, only they managed to get the broadcast master of the extended cut (not theatrical) from the ivi.ru VOD service. So all that remains is - someone would need to go through the IMAX footage and clean it up accordingly, overlay the 2.40 crop if necessary…like people did on the SW TFA IMAX scene.

Source from the online cinema.
IMAX Edition version of the movie, has a larger frame filling, compared to the bluray only in IMAX scenes, the rest of the movie is 2.35: 1 source Blu Ray enhanced version.
In the source code of two WEB DL 1080p extended and theatrical version. The expanded has non-disconnected Russian subtitles, and theatrical is not, the IMAX scene in the extended is longer, the short version was used as patches to hide non-switchable subtitles.

For material assistance in creating the release thanks otputi, seraccept71, SergBan, ns120bel, PALANTEN, THeSMiTH, bulava

I assume you’re talking about the opening scene, because that’s the only one I noticed with the subtitles. Has someone patched that scene together without the subs? I love to have it (or at least the theatrical one so that I can do it myself).

Thanks!
