I watched The Warriors on Netflix back in 2011 and, as far as I know, it was the theatrical cut (no comic book nonsense). It was in HD as well. Unfortunately, it expired and hasn't been back on Netflix since. But an HD transfer of the theatrical cut does definitely exist.

 Now I would love to get this, but I will believe it when I see it lol, I have searched and searched and have yet to see this version anywhere.

Well according to You_Too there is a slight video difference and the Japanese BD is better, but not by much to warrant the extra cost, but according to a PM I got a couple days ago from a member here there is English opening and credits, hey if we end up not needing it then good, but if this can help make this either 2-Disc Set or a single BD50 better then why not try and get it? we are all about making the best damn release we can with what we have lol.

At this point all we are doing is discussing and material gathering anyways, there are still a few titles in front of this, actually You_Too and I have a couple things to finish up on the 2 releases I wanted to try and have out for you guys for Christmas and the the whole Team is taking a much needed break for a few weeks.

A huge thanks to TServo2049 we now have the Dutch BD of The Neverending Story to go along with my German and US releases.

I am not 100% sure of exactly what all will be on this release, it is still in the planning, but I am pretty sure we are going to have both versions on our release with kick ass audio and both color corrected, it may be a 2-Disc BD25 Set or 1 BD50, we will announce more details when we get closer to release.

Thanks

 What source are you planning to use for the (german) Theatrical Version?

 The German extended cut is coming from the German BD release.

http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Die-unendliche-Geschichte-Blu-ray/56091/

speaking of which can anyone here help us in obtaining the Japanese version, it seems we will need this one after all,

Sorry to bump this thread, but does anyone know if there is a Cinema DTS disc for Rush Hour 2?

Thanks

I will take a look around DJ ..... if I can obtain it, I will.

Thank you, hopefully there is one but who knows? I just hope the HDX video looks as good as the retail BD's for 1 & 3, I still cannot believe part 2 is still a no show, and for this long even.

1 more thing, do you know if there is one for this movie, now don't laugh lol, Bring it On?

That cheerleader movie? "giggles"

I can check around.

 All I can say is Eliza Dushku.

OK just a small update, we have a lot of "real life" stuff going on in our lives right now and the Holidays are rapidly approaching, that said I just wanted to let you guys know that we are trying our hardest to release 2 more projects before we take a break for a while, 4-8 weeks at most, but we do need a much needed break especially with all we have on our plates now, so hopefully you guys will understand.

I will announce the 2 when I know for sure they will be available, again we are trying very hard.

Thanks

It's no problem. I can send you my copy once I get it - all you have to do is send it back once you have it ripped.

If you want to own your own copy, you can also set up your own account on DVDoutlet. It's not difficult, they accept major credit cards. Just click the icon for English and you will see all signup forms and stuff in English instead of Dutch. (For checkout, they don't give payment options in English, but just select the first option, DocData Payments.)

And if you want your own copy and don't want to go through that trouble, you can still PayPal me $25 and I'll buy a second copy for you. No biggie.

Feel free to PM me and let me know which option you'd rather take.

 This would be great! I can do this if it is still OK with you.

Neverending Story UPDATE:

Earlier today, I found this on Amazon UK.

From the description, I thought it could be the Dutch release, so I contacted the seller, and he just mailed me back to confirm that it is.

The upside of buying it this way is that you can use Amazon UK with an Amazon US account. The downside is that it costs almost 2 1/2 times as much as ordering from DVDoutlet.nl (running the exchange rates, about $60 USD vs. about $24.50 USD).

Actually, DVDoutlet.nl isn't that hard to sign up for. I'm going to buy a copy for myself, and I would be glad to send it to you for your project, provided I get it back once it's been ripped.

 I wish I would have caught this sooner, I would have loved to add a second copy and I would have paid for it.

I have the Star Trek Movies 1-6 SkyHD caps. They are h264 with Dolby Digital 5.1. Unlike the Blu-ray's, they don't suffer from DNR and IMO have the original theatrical colors.

Do they have any logos on the video? I would love to get these if it is possible.

No logos dark_jedi if I remember correctly. PM sent.

Thank you very much! you the man.

Star Wars Holiday Special - WHIO 1st Gen VHS Preservation (Released)

Video Collector said:

Just finished DL-ing V2, and I am very impressed with the quality.

As I was watching, it hit me that this version could be interesting with a few tweaks. First off, a conversion to 23.97 fps would take out the "video" look (Like they did with the Zion Hybrid). Adding a moderate grain loop over it would further enhance the "film" look and perceived sharpness without introducing artefacts. Perhaps even a slight increase in contrast to take out some of the milky blacks? Lastly, crop out the video noise at the bottom.

I am talking out of my ass here, as I don't know if it would really improve things, and I'm unable to perform this experiment myself. Just thought it would be nice to see.

Actually all this would not be hard at all but it would be better to do it on the source files rather then this DVD.
