Oh dear Christ, get it OFF! GET IT OFF!

That's from one of the goddamn Calvert SONGS!




NOOOOOOOOOOOOO


Lovely restoration work though.

Anyway Faceman, you'll get your package in a few hours. The version of Arabian Knight that you'll actually be restoring happens to be widescreen. (And not as nice as that pan & scan copy I'm sure, but it's widescreen.)

Amazing how much better your restoration looks. I'll probably piss myself when you get hold of the widescreen version!


I've sent you Princess and the Cobbler too, which has only been released in pan & scan. =( Actually if you wanted you could use your restoration of the Miramax Pan & Scan for Princess and the Cobbler. There are very few visual differences between the two and I could easily hack them together. (Princess is running at 25 fps rather than 24 though, it runs fast cos it's PAL. I've slowed the clips down for my own use, and slowed the audio down, since it's a better sound mix than Miramax's.)

Uh, the only thing we actually need the Princess and the Cobbler for is some stuff later in the film - all of it quite short - a shot of Zigzag meeting One Eye, the entire witch scene and some stuff in the March and Destruction of the One Eye War Machine, and the ending and credits. You don't have to restore these clips but I wouldn't mind. (You can tell the scenes easy in my edit, because they're pan & scan when the rest is widescreen!)

(Note: also only appearing in Princess - a quick shot of King Nod during the opening narration. This isn't in my restoration though.)


I've also sent you a million documentaries and other films which have awful picture quality. You can have fun with any of them too if you like. =)
