These two are more than fine for official releases. https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Halloween-4K-Blu-ray/210868/ https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Halloween-4K-Blu-ray/294501/
Would be nicer if someone made a custom BD50 with all the Criterion LD audio + bonus features, with one of the source videos from the 4K discs. The mono track from the Shout/Scream 4K is nice too.

The Scream Factory 4k mono track is the same lossy garbage from their boxset disc that’s been filtered to hell and back. Not to mention the compression on it is garbage. Hopefully we’ll get a better presentation someday!

Still going to buy an official release anyway. Where do you think we are?

Would be better if someone scanned a 35mm print instead of whatever the fuck this is attempting.

Or you could understand that they aren’t always available to be scanned, and scanning and restoring takes money and a lot of time. No need to shit on every project that could look better with a print.

Yes, this would look much better with a print and project.

How does this compare to the 4k ?

Color wise? Better.
Audio wise? Better.
Definition? Worst of course; still some shots have bigger frame size.

You should make an entirely new project but make it a BD50 instead of a BD25. With the source video from the 4K disc, audio from the ARROW BD and Universal Signature LD, and uncensored commentary from the Universal LD and/or early DVDs.

RELEASED: "Star Trek: The Motion Picture (Special Longer Version)"
Time

Here’s an official link. Search for Special Longer Cut.
https://www.startrek.com/news/fully-restored-directors-edition-of-star-trek-the-motion-picture-arrives-on-4k-ultra-hd
This project is officially over since it’s being officially released via 4K disc on September 6th, 2022. All would be needed would be downscale to 1080p and SDR, without DNR or EE, if this isn’t also on BD.
slaynmage’s version had too much DNR already because of the shoddy bullshite upscaling.

is now on kino lorber 4k

I don’t believe so. The Kino Lorber version is close, but different elements.

Incorrect. It’s the USA Theatrical version, 162 minutes, on the Kino Lorber 4K+BD. https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/The-Good-the-Bad-and-the-Ugly-4K-Blu-ray/283312/ https://www.kinolorber.com/product/the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly-4k-uhd
There’s a longer cut released in Italy on 4K+BD with a fugly piss yellow filter, but there’s that. It’s 175 minutes https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Il-Buono-il-Brutto-il-Cattivo-4K-Blu-ray/300959/
Both are SDR aka BT.709 colorspace.

I have the Australian Blu-ray disc too. The mono track isn’t missing cues. http://dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=18450#2
Only interested in the US Theatrical version since it was last on DVD. No idea what cut is on the US BD, which I also have.

The international cut is on the US BD

Thanks! I rarely watch that disc.

Damn expensive though.

lacks the original mono track

Prime’s version has the mono though

Well, shit. I’d rather disc compared to streaming anyway. Unless if someone made their own custom disc, perhaps. Or scanning a 35mm print in very excellent quality.
