Thanks for the update D_J ...... looks like folks are going to have a very cool release on this ...... Thanks to You_Too ..... too. I was trying to write that so it didn't look so weird.
:)
Now this is some awesome news. Can't wait!!
“Alright twinkle-toes, what’s your exit strategy?”
EPK = promo featurettes, there is a 25mn one, a 6mn one, and a complete collection of all the parties involved answering questions, 3/5 mn each (that was probably used by TV shows to edit new kits). Definetely a complete collection of everything aired on TV (and not on DVD)

It will be awesome indeed!
Another little update on things for this, I now have the LD and have Suspiria on the way, so just as soon as it gets here I will ship these both out to be ripped.
We have a lot of extras we need to sift through for this project, not yet sure what will be on the BD and what will not, but I am leaning towards this as a BD25 release, we just do not have any BD50's to keep making these huge releases lol, plus it is not like the video we are working with is "pristine" or anything, certainly better then what we currently have obviously.
A clean release is better than a rushed release ....... :)
June 1st the first many showings of True lies starts on hdnet, here's hoping that somebody gets a nice capture of it.
Well if a version does pop up before we release and it is better we will for sure switch it out, but I am not going to hold my breath on it.
I'll keep my eyes out for one.
Anyone watch it last night?
Wouldn't DTheater be better instead of a Muse LD since it used component instead of composite for it's HD displaying? Only read this page and certainly hope the two of you won't be using ANY DNR or EE for this. Keep the film grain as is.
Might as well get a X0 or X9.
There is no Muse of True Lies, and no real grain in that MPEG 2 TS
I saw the HDNet version off my DVR service which has HDnet for free. Little to no real detail. There is film grain,just that the the resolution does not look like HD from the current era has to be a really old transfer. Was in scope aspect ratio and not zoomed in.
Definitely not fit for BD quality wise if they dumped this master to disc i would be really pissed.
There were little give aways in the image to suggest this was from a theatrical print and not the o-neg.
The Print originally had a very fine grain and was soft looking any ways but i think this was because of early gen scanning technology rather than the print itself.

i wouldn't consider super35 be able to create fine grain... in comparison what anamorphic 35mm can produce. nonetheless the blu-ray will blow the d-theater out of the water. fox knows this is fan favorite and we are waiting way to long for this release. they don't want a new patton desaster. it might be on par with titanic in terms of video quality.
as for the audio, well... we'll see. so don't dump the d-theater just yet ;)

Super 35 is has far from fine grain and the night shots had quite a lot of grain
There's a True Lies presskit DVD uploaded over at your favourite intestine. Might want to check it out if you're including any extras with this.

This very good looking print looks very interesting...
Well, Cinemax in the USA just ran a new HD master of True Lies on 3/30. I just compared it to the D Theater tape and it is definitely a new master. True Lies was was also open matte. I just wanted people to know in case someone can capture it. I have a copy on my DVR but not sure I can capture it for a useful copy.
They also have are running (right now as I type this) a new HD master of The Abyss in 2.35. It is definitely HD and not the same master as the Japanese HD.
And looks like True Lies is running again tonight at 10:15 (-5 US East Coast Time)
Awesome, then that would mean it has to be coming to blu-ray soon.
Any updates on this?
Reliance MediaWorks (the former Lowry) has clips in their demo reel of their True Lies remaster. Tealed to death, naturally. All of the clips from Super35 films are 16:9, as well.
No grain to be seen in any of those clips but I am assuming they DNR'd it for Vimeo to avoid compression artifacts.
