Star Trek II the Wrath of Khan Anamorphic first issue DVD. Super grainy picture and its DVD so its highly compressed in picture and audio. The print negative damage and color shift is obvious. I did watch it because unlike the 4K it has the original mix even if it’s in lossy 2.0 Dolby surround format. And i did not want to hook up my old tv and get my laserdisc player working and search for the Star Trek 1-5 box set to find my letterbox copy of ST II.

What about ripping the audio and syncing it to the 4K master? You can extract the video and audio from the DVD to use as syncing reference to the 4K Blu-Ray.

I was wondering, what condition is this print in?

It was shockingly clean! The condition is extremely nice overall, with just one splice on the third reel. I think people will be really happy with how the final scan turns out. 😃

How so? I mean the color’s a bit faded.

It’s actually a lot less faded than the pictures made it out to be! Check the image links I replied to Peter with on the last page, you’ll see they’re pretty close to how the colors presumably should look. There’s a tiny bit of fade, but it’ll be pretty easy to color-correct.

That reminds me, Considering that there is one splice in one of the reels, I have a Blu-Ray copy of this movie and I can try to match the visuals to the film print to fill that in.

Or…you can use the NTSC LaserDiscs of the film to recreate the official aesthetic of 35mm print that Disney used in their pre-2000 masters. Especially since according to the Deluxe CAV Edition LD, many of the raw digital frames done after rendering were instantly transferred over to positive 35mm, since digitally sourced films weren’t a thing back in 1995.

I don’t have a laserdisc player.

Maybe anyone who has a laserdisc player, any NTSC LD copy of the film, and a capture card, alongside perfect NTSC calibration from the software could help.

I got the Japanese Deluxe CAV and the Standard NTSC Laserdisc. I still need to rip the laserdisc for my server at some point.

If you rip it, will this be IVTC’d?

Also, considering that this is a print from Australia, I wonder if it contains a Dolby Digital track on the print, as well as maybe the Roger Rabbit short “Rollercoaster Rabbit”, as with the case on international theatrical releases of the film, including the UK.

Looking at the photos from the Ebay listing, the print contains a Dolby Digital track. I don’t know if Rollercoaster Rabbit’s attached to it or not.

Tex Avery’s cartoons are hit or miss to me. Sometimes I found of some his cartoons funny (like Garden Golpher), others I find a bit corny. I think the best he has ever done are I’m Cold and The Legend of Rock-a-Bye Point. I can understand why he’s iconic though, Tex Avery changed the face of animation for the better at the time when there’s a ton of sappy Disney clones (especially the 1930’s.

Anyway, I prefer the Fleischers’ cartoons.

Super Mario Bros. 3 while still a good game is overrated. The complete lack of a save feature when other NES games of similar length or shorter had one means that it’s very easy to lose lots of progress. Super Mario Bros. 2 is the best of the NES Mario games in my opinion.

The SNES and GBA versions soften that with a save feature on both versions which made them a bit better. Speaking of which, I played the latter and didn’t do the extra levels yet because I don’t have an E-Reader accessory along with the game’s cards.

I don’t find the Borderlands movie to be this bad as everyone thinks.

Half of the movie was pretty tolerable such as the action sequences and the acting until everything slowly turns into a HOT MESS.

The only good things about this SO CALLED video game film was the set pieces and some of the actors’ performances. That’s about it.

What a total DUD of a movie and I can’t tell if I even trust Eli Roth to improve his “craft” after this mess…

Let me address the elephant in the room. Poor Things is an overrated movie. None of the characters were engaging, I’m apathetic towards the story and it nearly BORED me to sleep upon watching this film. One of the movie’s strongest aspects were the visuals such as the backdrops (especially the Portugal scene) and the soundtrack which reminded me of Animal Crossing, but that’s about it. I didn’t care for this movie.
