I still watch my colorised King Kong laserdisc from time to time. I remember Doug Pratt of the Laserdisc Newsletter prefaced his review of it with "Purists need not apply." Ha ha. KK and the Sony Blus of Harryhausen's colorized films are a pleasure, but I'd balk at a colorised Citizen Kane.
I have been thinking a lot lately about combining the chroma from the KK LD with the Warner BD. Unfortunately the cropping is different between the two so it would entail a lot of manual repositiong of the colours to really make it work. There are probably differences in the frame count between the two to also account for.
Not that I am in any way technically competent to do this, but the theory is sound. I was hoping dark_jedi and his team would tackle this, but as I understand it they need another project like they need a third ear :-)
Damn I forgot about that title, I would love a colorized King Kong 1933, but if we could get this to work that would be nice, that is what we were trying to do with NOTLD 68.
lol just as soon as we can get some of these damn projects out the door and close to releasing others I was tossing around the idea of a request type thread.
