I guess I do have an earlier version because all that extra stuff definitely isn't on there. Looking foward to downloading this. I'm assuming that the first movie is coming along? If not, I have that one as well.

Rikter,

I had the "official" version of this 2 disc set and it didn't have the making of Superman 2 on it nor the trivia track. Was there re-encoding done on this??? There had to have been because I don't think there would be room for that making of special if there wasn't. Personally, I'd rather have that special have it's own release rather than try to cram it onto this one.

Is the whole thing in 16x9 or just the parts where it's the original movie and the tv parts in full screen? My version is completely full screen.

I've heard of this and would love to see it. They also sell one of Se7en. Both apparently have atrocious quality so I never bothered but if I saw them, might be a different story. If anyone has a "hook up" i'd be interested.

Great extras, indeed. Too bad they probably lost the rights to them already and won't rerelease this on DVD... just as they won't release their short-lived "Spinal Tap" exclusive once again... :-\

Yup. good thing I'm doing my version

Of course, the editing suite won't be as exciting technically but I assure you, seeing several takes of Keanu doing the same lines (some of which are vastly [read: upsettingly] different). And then of course, the two audio tracks. I'm debating making this a dual layer.

Sammy,

You have the 2 CD raiders?

I was the one that made that.

Named all the tracks and everything.

Sammy,

Here in the US, we got nothing. Other regions got extras.

And there is most certainly a laserdisc release for Bram Stoker's Dracula.

The first 3 releases will be the two Raiders "making of" specials that have already been released and the making of Last Crusade. The Raiders specials will have a higher video bitrate and will NOT be using a PCM audio track. The original master was mono so there's no need for a large audio file when that could be going towards video quality. I'm sure you'll all be very pleased.

BTW, babyhum, I now have a TiVo of the AFI George Lucas Tribute... are you planning on doing a release of that one?

--SKot

Yes. We have teamed up for that as well. It will be dual layered and MUCH better than the one already released.

Well it actually doesn't matter how many sides a film on laserdisc is presented on. If it's in CLV or CAV won't affect the quality of the film (noticeably). The quality of this particular Blade Runner transfer sucks because of shitty mastering, pure and simple.

The mastering of the BR transfer that Farsight has done is fine, have you seen the original LD of this movie?
I give you cred for your effort Farsight!

Ummm...yeah. I own the Criterion laserdisc.

well...it won't be put up there from me but i'm sure someone else will.

do they usually post the full files? I was told it would take 5 DVD's to hold full HD content.

I couldn't disagree more. I've done a lot of recordings in both xp (1 hour) and sp (2 hour) on my recorders and the 2 hours are always worse than the one and I've decided that, on the whole, I'd rather burn a dual layer disc than a single layer that looks worse.
I think the only reason why dual-layers aren't being used now is because the price is so high and so few people are using them. But rest assured, any of the files *I* put up here that are longer than 2 hours will be dual-layer. The hi-def age is here and I'm not going to be stuck behind the 8 ball because single layer is cheaper at the moment. I want to preserve things in as best a quality as I can.

Probably a combination of both. 2 hours is two long for a single layer DVD. What I don't understand is that you'd be better off taking the regular BR dvd which is essentially 16x9 already, adding the fake ending, editing out the dream sequence and just mixing in the VO to the soundtrack. That would give you nicer results than an LD transfer.

And it's absolute crap quality. I downloaded it and wasn't worth my time. Nothing 2 hours should ever be put on a single layer dvd. It's got video noise all over it.

Confirmed. I will be able to do a dual layer version of this. I'm getting a copy split over 5 DVD's. I'll just have to mix it down. Will have 5.1 as well.

Don't be so sure. Some people have said that sometimes it is...and sometimes it isn't..depending on where you are and whatknot.

Is there a way around the encryption?

Do you know which version they're gonna air?

Directors Cut.

But even if you're looking for the original version, this is still going to be the best master we have if anyone is able to capture it. The current DVD is single layered and terrible quality. If one captured this correctly, they could have a full dual layer, anamorphic set with possibly 5.1 sound! Do we know if that channel is encrypted?
