I think a majority of these re-coloured transfers are done with a "so it looks good on HDTV" type of subjective

no regard for the original prints at all. unless the original DoP or Director came on board and said they were involved

William Friedkin need not apply

Since the Blu-ray got announced yesterday for release in the US on June 4th (hopefully with corrected audio this time round)

I was wondering if anyone had a copy of the extended edition that was shown on NBC over two nights
 

details here are from IMDB:-

For the initial network television showing broadcast on NBC in September 1976, additional footage was shot to lengthen the film in order to show it over two nights. The most extensive segment of new footage is a subplot of a newlywed couple (Debralee Scott and Sam Chew Jr.) on a flight to Los Angleles so the husband can interview for a job with Stuart Graff (Charlton Heston). The plane tries to land as the earthquake hits, but the pilots are able to regain control and fly away before the runway breaks up. Other significant segments are new scenes with Jody (Marjoe Gortner) and Rosa (Victoria Principal), which establish Jody’s obsession with Rosa, as well as one short scene in a pawn shop with Buck (Jesse Vint) and Hank (Michael Richardson), who play Marjoe’s roommates in the theatrical version. Contrary to popular belief, these additional scenes were not “leftover” footage from the original 1974 theatrical release. Rather, the footage was filmed almost two years later by NBC to expand the film. These additional scenes were shot without the original director Mark Robson, who opted out, (in fact, he loathed the additional scenes), but they were shot with Universal’s approval. In addition, two deleted scenes originally shot for the theatrical release were re-inserted into the television version, including a narrative opening about the San Andreas Fault, as well as a scene of Rosa brushing off a guy (Reb Brown) trying to give her a ride on his motorcycle. Incidentally, the version frequently running on the American cable channel “American Movie Classics” is the television version, and not the original theatrical version.

Somewhere I have an HD version of True Lies that was muxed to the D-Theater DTS track.

I don't know if that would fit what you're looking for or not.  IIRC there was also a Japan DVD release with the DTS track and it might still be available if you're willing to brave Amazon.co.jp.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D-VHS#D-Theater

There used to be several other of the D-Theater DTS tracks floating around at HDBits.org if that is of interest.

Edit: Apologies, I'm assuming there is a particular reason you're looking for laserdisc rips in particular since I'm having no trouble finding several of the ones on your list available on DVD or BD releases.

not sure if it's any use but there was also a DVD release in China that included a 1536kbps DTS-ES track

got that and The Abyss in my collection

i did find this the other day

if your looking for a specific screen grab please let me know

yeah the 1999 edition (cover has all 4 on top of the tower block)

I've got some screen grabs on the Superbit that i can post but you may have to wait a while for the original R1 DVD unless someone can chime in with them?

yes a VERY BIG THANK YOU to above for bringing us some true treasures :)

p.s you need to add Apollo 13 to the list ;)

I wouldn't mind seeing if anyone has the CD-Rom's to Event Horizon

I saw that at the cinema twice and the sound was so loud and agressive that it shocked me

the DVD /  Blu-ray version doesn't have the same impact at all

can anyone point me in the right direction of where this is still online

can't find it :(

still trying to grab the DVD9 of the Ulysses revised Cut of the Extended version as well lol

found this little titbit over at LDDB

A 4.0 channel DTS theatrical mix that was remixed to 5.1 at DTS insistence for the DTS LaserDisc release.

That info was added by the very knowlegable disclord over there

I know the first release DVD had a 5.0 Dolby Digital track but later releases added an upmixed .1 LFE channel

anyone have the DTS CD-Roms for this?

would appreciate a link as well please

having issues trying to grab this from Tehparadox

have you seen the screen caps from the recently release Japanese Blu-ray

http://forum.blu-ray.com/showpost.php?p=7244776&postcount=16

Looks pretty good IMHO

I wouldn't mind seeing some screen caps of these actually

FYI apparently it's out on Blu-ray in October along with True Lies

just doubled checked and the Japanese Superbit DVD's are from the 2005 master

bugger :(

quick question regarding the DTS mix for Apollo 13

is the original R1 DVD (barebones) the same as the Laserdisc or is it this home video remix that they used for every other release?

I'm curious to know what the thinking is behind encoding mono as 2.0 dual as opposed to 1.0.

I personally appreciate the dual encoding for the simple reason that my receiver can't spread 1.0 across the front speakers (I only get the centre), but presumably the majority of people don't share this problem and 2.0 is just wasted space.

 out of curiosity Jon, what reciever have you got?

don't hold me to the bitrate on the DTS track on Jaws but i'm sure it was half bitrate. will dig a bit deeper and report back

not sure about that signature edition in all honesty. i thought that got the 5.1 remix if i'm honest. I've got the laserdisc that i linked to in the OP
