I know that I’m late to the party, but I’m here to provide a chapter list for just the Blu Ray compatible ISO version of this presentation. You’ll recall that the previous version in the MKV container with the 4.2.2 color space had an encoding glitch at the end of the film just before the end credits.
From that ISO file, I took the six m2ts files and joined them into one m2ts file via TSMuxer and I got this running time…
02:04:53.684
So, based on that running time, I took the readings of my chapter stops from the hh:mm😒s:mm clock from MPC-BE, and here it is. Just copy and paste.

Please note that I’ve changed the timings on chapters 7 and 18 before this post was made. I apologize for the error.

Anyone reading this post now, above are the correct timings for the chapter stops.

Enjoy.

Ah, I recognize that format - it’s OGM chapter format (which is what I use for chapters when fansubbing).

Sorry to bump this and be quite off-topic as well! 😛 A while back the then T-1 put a few seconds of 70mm 4K up on their site. The owner of the fragment then mentioned there might be a few more bits, but nothing major.
Dre did a pretty solid colour recovery of one frame. I was just wondering if anyone’s considered restoring these bits for curiosity’s sake (and maybe as prep in the supremely unlikely event of a reel popping up)? I’ve asked a couple of collectors and they say that’s nigh on impossible, but they did confirm that all 70mm was printed on Eastman so would be brick red by now, like the 5 secs we’ve seen.

I’d happily have a go on pfClean/DaVinci, but I have to say, I’m probably not the best person for the job.
What I would love to do though, is see how these fragments could be edited into the grindhouse, how sharp they are when played in sequence with 35mm and whether the aspect ratio shift is alarming or not. (Maybe they could fit inside the widescreen Grindhouse frame with some blending on either side)

Cheers!

That segment is the stuff of restoration nightmares. Good luck to whomever decides they want to take that on. 😛

Haha, hopefully someone will now on pride alone! 😛

Actually, it was NeverarGreat, who did a great job recovering those colors 😃.

My mistake.
I also checked back and the fragment belonged to Poita, and I don’t think there are any more bits. Must’ve been selective memory 😛
I’ll attempt a cleanup on the raw clip and report any findings 😃

Discontinued for good? I realize TeamNegative1 have disbanded but I was under the impression that there might be some members from the team that would finish working on Empire and Return of The Jedi and release them.

I wouldn’t trust a single thing this particular member of the team says.

Is this the same as Harmy’s 35mm ROTJ Grindhouse? Or was this a completely different scan?

Being that this is a completely different film, I would guess that it’s at least partially from a different scan.

Make a motion in the Senate, where that kind of request belongs!

So maybe I’m just out of the loop or didn’t get the point but will we ever see this 35mm transfer of The Empire Strikes Back from Negative1 or Rogue1?

The only thing we’ll get from Rogue1 is more meme-worthy image macros.

As far as I can tell everyone with access to scans is still working. It just seems like there won’t be so many updates from now on

I happened to see this on spleen today:

edit: hurm why isn’t my image producing correctly?..

I suspect he means the upcoming cleaned up version they were discussing (sanitized version) or the Fuji scan they had planned for much later.

edit: I assume you were responding to the person asking when we’ll get ESB.
