mallrats 35mm film print restoration needed because blu ray has dnr and edge enhancement.

chasing amy 35mm or 16mm i don't know because it said the print released in theaters was the 35mm blow up. print needed because of blu ray has dnr don't know if it had edge enhancement done.

jay and silent bob strike back 35mm print restoration needed because the blu ray looks like a dvd upscale.

You need to do some basic research - modern studio films shot on 16mm / super 16, whether for budgetary or aesthetic reasons, are still destined for 35mm release prints. Looking for 'proper'* 16mm prints of these films is a fairly futile exercise, indeed I doubt they even exist (except, perhaps, in Kevin Smith's garage).

*It occurs to me that there might have been a 16mm aftermarket for some titles - Derann, club or school screenings etc. But those would still have taken the print route of the 35mm, i.e. ON > IP > 35mm IN > 16mm reduction print. Do correct me on this point if I've missed a step, folks.
