Once the LD transfer is finished, since we keep running into brick "coily" walls, is there a reason why we don't take a look at utilizing the BD transfer as a source for a reconstruction ala DeSpecialized? I never even considered the BD due to it being the same DC master, but that may be the only way to get more detail and to get away from the inherent defects of the LD master itself.

Call it the "Buy more. Buy more now. Buy more and be happy" Edition. ;)

IIRC, it was discussed, but the extensive editorial and CGI changes to the film make it difficult, if not impossible. We can't use shots that aren't even there any more. :(

One or two shots, (like the albino lizard) *might* be fixable using the old Japanese pan and scan LD...
