^I think someone else should have said that :P

The rumor is that there's a 3DS redesign in the works. Rumors have especially exploded this year with Nintendo, but that one might be one to take some stock into - because, unlike the other more ludicrous ones, this one has stuck around for some reason. I'd hold off, C3.

^Try it screams modern video games, bub.

The 8mm restoration is the FIRST I really like from you

This thread is now about Ziggy Stardust.

Off-topic is already unmoderated. Nice try -1.

^Joke would have worked better with Frink.

Adblock on Chrome only blocks the image, not the amount of post space it takes... :(

My problem with stream websites isn't using them... it's watching them. :( I can very rarely repay the favors of when you guys watch my stuff, and I sincerely apologize.

UP NEXT: BLADE RUNNER!

While it might not always look better, both quality and fidelity wise, that HD broadcast definitely looks more '80s to me. It kind of has that feeling I've gotten from a lot of movies in the period where the colors are kind of drab and uninteresting.

Things like that really fucking ruin the forum for me. I enjoy all these pictures, and then I have to go through... that. I'm a little sick of it.

The dude abides.

My apologies for not giving more credit to DJ then... it's been awhile, and browsing through 129 pages isn't exactly my idea of fun! That makes it all the more impressive since it was a one man job. I'm totally satisfied with it, but honestly can't wait to see Blu V2. If you honestly think the V3 DVD is crap compared to it, well... you just set my expectations super high haha. Seriously anticipating this!

And congratulations on the new job as well!

While I don't see a brown tint anymore, you should really be working on a calibrated monitor. You've definitely oversaturated the picture and possibly brightened it some too. Look at Luke's jacket for loss of detail.

Wow.

That is my genuine reaction to this project. I finally watched the V3 DVD in full, after having only seen clips of it previous. And I was blown away. This doesn't show its poor source material at all - to be honest, You_Too and DJ have done quite a number on this! It almost looks like this came from a proper transfer. That's saying something.

At first, I was hesitant to accept the color pallet; however, it grew on me. While sometimes it was still a bit red, I know that's a limitation fo the source material and that's not something I can really fault the dynamic duo for - plus, I know they're aware of it. I'm very curious to see how Project Blu V2 turns out.

You guys have a new fan. Congratulations on such wonderful work! I can't believe what I just watched isn't even the final product.

Just finished a playthrough with Supermodel. You can find it at my livestream, over here. I had to run it windowed because livestream wouldn't pick it up in fullscreen. The fps took a hit because of that, but it's still watchable - and hey, I did better because of it!

edit- my best video quality livestream yet, but we've got Skype commentary from my friends because I didn't know how to turn it off... intelligence level may vary. Nothing from me though, because it didn't pick up me.

Didn't want to be that guy, but I guess I'll bite again. Any word on when this will be released?

After 5 years of waiting for the chance, I finally saw Whisper of the Heart. There's no other word for it than charming. It's a simple story about a young boy and girl who fall in love while exploring their separate passions. The movie does get slow, but the charm more than makes up for it. And, yes... it's corny. But I'm pretty sure they knew that when they made it haha. Highly recommended movie in the Studio Ghibli catalogue, even though it's not from Miyazaki. If you like Japanese animation it's a must.

note: this is a more realistic movie than you're used to seeing from Ghibli. It has the heart the studio's fans know and love, but much of the fantasy here stems from the protagonist's imagination rather than the situations she finds herself in like the other movies. I'm curious to see The Cat Returns because I loved the fantasy scenes so much.

3.5/4 baseballs.

RIP revival theaters. According to this petition, movie studios have promised to stop shipping out 35mm films entirely - whether they have them in the vaults already or not! This applies to both new films, and old (the latter being the bigger problem IMO). For those interested on reading more, here's an article about the disappearance of 35mm in general.

"The date is fast approaching when 20th Century Fox and Fox Searchlight will adopt the digital format as the only format in which it will theatrically distribute its films. ... We strongly advise those exhibitors that have not yet done so to take immediate steps to convert their theaters to digital projection systems."

Ringo? Don't you mean Rango? I mean, god knows I love the man with the most amazing nose of all time, but I don't think we rate drummers on the ball system...

Plaid long sleeve shirt and long khaki pants.

Condescending much, Warbler? Sean only made a casual visit. While I do think he probably should have chosen long pants over shorts, I certainly think a black polo is sufficient. There's no reason for you to get high-and-mighty over it.

You know what's awful about this? That's a DIGITAL screening. You know, the kind where you're supposed to be able to completely prevent disasters like this. I thought they were meant to be idiot-proof! Goodness gracious Gaff, I'm sorry all of that happened. :(
