My apologies if this has been mentioned already but there's an article in the newest Star Wars Insider about the digital editions of the "making of" books that is coming out in the fall. It's mentioned that additional deleted scenes/dailies will be included in them.

Sucks that they couldn't be put into another boxed set. I'm reminded of the "Making Magic" set...

I guess we'll only have crappy quality versions of them.

Death Becomes Her

dfnyc, have you uploaded "I Knew it Was You: Rediscovering John Cazale" yet? Just wondering, no rush.

There was also this DTS edition from Japan.

I used to have it. I must have thrown it out, I guess. Unless I threw it in a closet somewhere.

Like I said...the Blu-ray is supposed to be coming out this year. I'd wait before going through the trouble.

The BD is coming out this year. I would wait.

So they're cutting up a perfectly good 35mm print for this?

Don't know if anyone had mentioned this but the cards are coming out next month.

How's the quality? I'm thinking of getting the Empire one.
Since all I have are re-print posters anyway, a vinyl banner might be cooler ;)

Saw this on LDDB about Evita:

"The DVD, Criterion LD, DTS LD and standard LD all used the same director approved video transfer. The DVD and AC-3 encoded LD's used a 16-bit audio master that was remixed slightly for home use. The DTS LD utilized a 20-bit master taken from the same master used to make the theatrical digital sound prints and thus the DTS Digital Surround LD sounds quite a bit different, and better, than the DVD and AC-3 LD releases. Because of the changes to the AC-3 versions, the DTS LD needs THX re-equalization for proper playback in the home while the other releases do not."

Would really love that DTS track.

You really should do 1080p. 720 is almost archaic in this day and age.

How is DVD-Lab for authoring BluRays?  I've been using it for the puggo projects (just DVDs), and I'm not nearly exercising all it can do.  But it has seemed quite easy to use.  Cheap, too.

Checked the disc. The interviews are contained in a 5-minute featurette, the disc also contains cast text biographies in the form of still images.

I don't think either of these extras appear on the later 3-disc Special Edition release, the VCI release is now out of print but you should be able to get it easily on eBay UK (the cover looks like <a href="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/160935689410">this</a>).<span style="font-size: 1.2em; line-height: 1.2em;"> </span>

God, I can't wait to download the Blu-ray version! Harmy, I'm drooling!! :)

Moth3r,

Thanks so much for responding!! You should have a PM. I'd appreciate anyone's help with this! :)

Got another request. Anyone have Shawshank Redemption from other regions?

Germany Blu-ray & DVD (Eurovideo)
Making-of documentary (21:38)

Scandinavia DVD: (SME / Future Film / Atlantic Film)
Behind-the-scenes featurette (4:00)
"Production" featurette (5:23)
8 interviews

I'm putting together a Blu-ray compilation of all of Babyhum's discs. Anyone interested in making some artwork for that?

I'm only looking for HD files, thanks.

Anybody willing to do a trade? Or work something out for some of these?

I really wish someone would do an HD restoration of all the trailers.

You might want to change Stephen to Steven. ;)

Anyone able to do Evita?

Only recently, the HDMI boards have started showing up on eBay instead of just the import sites.

Are there any non-eBay sites (like the DX site -- easily available to the U.S. with normal credit cards) that carry these items? The HDMI 3D Splitter 1x4 looks useful and capping up to 1080-24p (including all the lower resolutions) should cover any future situation. Raw capturing is useful (especially for later editing), but unobtrusively compressed recordings, for later viewing with a minimum of fuss, is fine (in this ease-of-use scenario, HDMI for recording both video and audio would be best).

Only ... I can't determine which products produce "clean" signals for recording just by reading the minimal descriptions. Any pointers on what to look for?
