What Preservations I like to see:
-The Pink Panther Strikes Again Original 124 Minute Version (using the deleted scenes used in Trail Of The Pink Panther)
This would be very nice!
I'd also like to see the Criterion of Ambersons.
IT BURNS!!
The new Blu version will look nothing like the deleted scenes for sure. What I'm curious to know is just how much cleanup LFL will put into them.
Something that's always bugged me: Wouldn't the extreme size difference make these things difficult?? ;)
Just another example of the prequels trying way too hard to be like "Star Wars".
The Pink Panther Strikes Again-still my favorite of the 70's Panthers.
Before that, Belle De Jour.
Gran Turismo 5. Really not sure if it's enjoyable or not. Especially playing on a regular tv.
Silverfuck-Smashing Pumpkins
Just checked my drive-I've got DE's 9 ac3 files split into three files for each film, but my ANH part 2 file is corrupt.
When it happens-it happens. Everybody has 500 million other things going on. I've waited for a broadcast 97SE trilogy since Max Rebo's superset project so a little more waiting isn't bad.
The only downside on the 1.66:1 images is to not crop off any of the frame when doing so. I've resorted to leaving tiny black bars around the top and bottom edges so that nothing is cropped off. The problem with scaling these images is that every time I move the cursor either the very top or very bottom of the frame will go out of focus.
To have PCM with LFE instead of 384 kbp/s.
Nice to see that it was actually encoded as 4.1.
So would it be possible to create a hybrid 4.1 track by adding the 97 LFE to the 97 LD Stereo surround PCM?
Even my 2.35:1 images look better this way.
Here is my previous effort-done by cropping to 720x405:
And here is the FCP scaled image:
Which do you think looks better?

I have the SE 1997 Japan Laserdisc set and I used the red/white RCA in to record the audio when I captured the movies but I'm guessing that can't help you, can it? What I've got is more like Dolby Stereo right?
If the track was set to digital, then you have a slightly down converted signal of the Dolby Surround encoded PCM.

Double Indemnity, Sunset Blvd., Ace in the Hole
Bit of a Wilder binge, eh? ;-) Those are all absolutely essential films! Sunset Blvd is in my Top 10.
Yep. I've been on a noir kick and you always have to include Billy. Honestly, I now think Ace in the Hole might be the definitive Wilder film.
Out of the Past, Double Indemnity, Sunset Blvd., Ace in the Hole, Chinatown
The Maltese Falcon, The Big Sleep, In a Lonely Place.
Having a noirfest this weekend.
Darth Editous captured the 5.1 some time ago, but I don't have it all anymore. I personally have been working on my own conversion of these in my spare time, but they're nowhere near done nor do they have 5.1. Dark_Jedi's 97SE V2 uses the 5.1 and is synced to the broadcast versions. (which are superior to the LDs) That should be released sometime soon. Otherwise Lee Thorogood's 97SE set looks great but that's in PAL.
Not sure about bitperfect-they should be-DE's 5.1 files were AC3 but they were the full 384 kbp/s.
They really need to stop. This is getting ridiculous.
It can be. I saw Alice in Wonderland at a $1 theater and it was this way for several reels. Made me actually kinda enjoy the movie.
Playing with Uranium-Duran Duran
Brilliant underrated record.
Elevator to the Gallows-just brilliant.
