Oh I see, he joined fanres.

I hope he gets the prints.

People are in contact with him. Please don’t scare him off again.

how did i scare him off? also he said he wasn’t able to contact anyone

will we ever get back to the future trilogy with no dnr and no edge enhancement plus 4k mastered transfers and color corrected? the currant transfers suck. do we have to wait until we get a 4k blu ray release?

Have to wait until we get a 4k BD release? In a word… yes. Or maybe more like… because they might do the films justice on the 4k format and then again maybe not. I am guessing yes though. Universal is starting to be more respectable, somewhat.

The question is whether the 4K master they have has all the dnr and ee as well or whether it is like the DCP. I have doubts that the digital master they have is even 4K, so there is a chance they would need to rescan it for 4K, hopefully this time without DNR and EE.

The current scan for BTTF is almost certainly 2K (or maybe 1080p).

Thankfully the arrival of Ultra HD Blu-ray means that film studios have an incentive to re-scan their catalog titles in 4K so they can put it out on the new format.

Some companies have even begun to re-release titles on regular ol’ Blu-ray with new 4K transfers. Doubt that’ll happen with BTTF, though.

really that really sucks.

Help me out here, I honestly have trouble seeing what’s wrong with the picture. Could someone point an example out to me or something?

here the dcp image has the right amount of grain where the blu ray makes faces look waxy etc. http://caps-a-holic.com/c.php?go=1&a=0&d1=874&d2=4005&s1=37253&s2=37257&i=4&l=0

JMO is correct about the flaw. But my advice on this forum is that if you don’t see the problem, don’t ask! Ignorance is bliss. 😃

You and me both. Yeah, I can see the DNR and EE, but it really doesn’t look waxy or destroy the look of the film for me. Obviously the older issues like improper framing or pink yellows are an issue, but this does not look that bad to me.

There are some shots that are worse as far as wax goes (especially in part II). But I agree that it doesn’t make the film unwatchable.

On the one hand, I like that many of us have high standards for how film releases should be done. And I hope, as better transfers are done for 4K releases (or at least 4K remasters), that film restorations improve. However, I think as a group we constantly convince ourselves that so many things are unwatchably terrible unless fixed by our own hands. Everything looks like shit when you’re analyzing it for DVNR, Orange/Teal, exact cropping, etc, instead of actually watching it as a film.

SilverWook were there any takers for DocBosch bttf 3 print?

well SilverWook were there any takers for DocBosch bttf 3 print?

well SilverWook were there not any takers for DocBosch bttf 3 print?

well then all i hope for is a non dnr’d and edge enhancement to heck 4k transfer from universal. again i’m sorry about that thing last year i didn’t know it was a bad place to talk about these kinds of things.
