How do you sort your movies?

I do too, but I do sometimes consider removing them just for space-saving reasons. It may not seem like much of a difference, but they do add up.

Do they actually though?

If your collection is large enough, yeah. I could believe squeezing an extra movie on a longish shelf after removing the slips. Especially since you often end up with a gap that’s _almost_big enough to squeeze in an extra title at the end of the shelf.

I need to see that. No idea how to get tickets for it, though.

Here, hope this helps: https://www.2001spaceodysseymovie.com/tickets/

Thanks!

I didn’t buy tickets until an hour before the show. Expected a nearly empty theater (a 50 year-old movie that’d been playing for a week). Was shocked, but impressed, to find a nearly-full theater by curtain up. (yes, real curtains that slowly opened as the musical intro ended! Repeated after intermission)

So plan ahead to be safe

2001: A Space Odyssey, 70mm projection.

Holy s**t. I’ve shared my thoughts on the film in this thread before. And the presentation—incredible. The texture, the subtle flicker, the wobbly location cards. All so beautiful. I even enjoy seeing the black cue marks.

Only issue with the presentation was a few persistent vertical hair lines on the last few reels. But I guess imperfections like that are the trade-off. And it’s totally worth it.

I do all my work on a 2015 MacBook Pro.

I wish I had one of those. I have a 2012 15", last model with the optical drive. Have loved it, but has been acting out lately. I don’t want one of those P.O.S. low-travel keyboards or to pay for the gimmick bar, though. Hopefully it can make it until the next-gen model is released, whenever that may finally be.

How would recompositing the shots digitally using the same choreography negate any of the work he did? The work they show in the video–i.e., him tracing out the ships’ paths on the transparencies–would still be the work that resulted in the final choreography. Recompositing simply reduces grain levels and matte lines, making his work available in a higher-quality image.
