Doing some reverse image searching, some of those Getty photos are available in this gallery on Der Spiegel - click the “20 Bilder” button to see them all. They’re not the full resolution/quality from Getty but it’s a decent improvement from anywhere else I’ve been searching.

These are great. Thanks!

Worked more on my cover concept. What would be the features on this disc?

Also. How do I make the images appear on this page instead of just a link?

Awesome cover! I don’t think TN1 release any features with the disc. It has audio and subtitle selection. I posted some details on a cover in the thread below (35mm restoration). How do you make your cover appear on a Blu Ray case? Is it a program or legit photography?

It’s just a mock up in Photoshop. I wanted to use a 4K cover but couldn’t find anything similar to this.

The HD source I have had subtitles that I exported to be able to use in Encore and I think it messed them up severely so I had to redo them, missing dialog and wrong sentences and the sync was all out of whack.
Having tested the disc at home the subtitles work and look great though.
Encore is a great tool for making Blu Rays but their subtitle feature is lacking quite a bit.

The project is finished. Subtitles were a pain in the ass and I’m not sure they work properly (were wonky when I played the ISO on VLC but I still have to test the disc at home in a regular player)
I cut together a unrated audio track which sounds pretty good considering the source I used. There’s also a mono track as well as a Turkish and a Russian dub I found.

You can find the ISO along with cover art and disc art over at the star wars trilogy forums.

Thanks for your help Doc!

Cast A Deadly Spell (Released)

I’m doing a “Special Edition” Blu ray for this under seen gem. I’m using the HD version that’s floating out there, taken from a HBO stream most likely. With it is the trailer that I remade in HD and a “Noir” Black and white version of the film. I didn’t just simply make it black and white but went scene by scene to ensure the contrasts was good as many scenes have stark saturated single colours and when they get turned to BW they become flat, with little contrast. I also added grain to the BW version.

This also comes with english subtitles that I’m working on right now.

This will be a dual layer Blu Ray in the end.

Here is the trailer I remade in HD, using the audio track from a low res version I found online.

And here is the cover I did for it.

I too made my own Special Edition of the Holiday Special.
I used the “Broadcast Master” copy that’s out there and blew it up to 720p.
I gathered a few extras for the disc as well, a commentary track that I found by the B-Movie podcast as well as various clips of the cast and crew discussing making the thing as well as the commercials and the CBS promo.

When I figure out how to upload the ISO up to trackers I’ll do it.

you don´t use the bluray for some scenes?

No. I just don’t see the point to be honest. I like my turds pure, not polished.
