What about the Terminators? I have covers ready for my download of the release

You made your own? we will also have some official ones when finished, can you post them, I would love to see them, hell maybe you may want to share them, up to you of course, but yes Terminator 1 & 2 and True Lies will be after both SW 77 and ANH 97 SE, we need to get these 2 out and then we will do a few more non SW titles because ESB is going to eat up a huge amount of You_Too's and my time once we start this one.

I will adapt my old BD covers without the specs known yet they are unfinished technically.

 

I just wondered as they are not on the list above

It was on their website for like 3 years actually.......

Plus Robert Harris said the Bond movies had the wrong vintage grain

Plus DNR removes noise, grain = noise to the machine, they cannot just magic it back

Plus Cameron said they removed the grain

And who said the OG ghostbusters disc was better?? you are all over the place buddy

I am quite sure this has been discussed on other threads before but is there any kind of reliable reference as to what Ghostbusters looked like during it's original theatrical run? None of the DVD or Blu-Ray releases have ever looked right to me.

I have spoken to a few Ghostbusters fans over the years who saw the old film print quite a few times, and they said it was closest to the 1999 DVD and the new 4K Remaster. The laserdiscs can be a good point of reference (but not always), but honestly these days the 4K blu-ray remaster is the best its ever going to look.

I will definitely check that release out, I didn't realize it was a new transfer.

I've seen those "Mastered in 4K" Blu-Rays advertised on various sites but I didn't really know exactly what they were until I looked them up just now. So from the sound of it they are basically just the Blu-Ray equivalent of Sony's Superbit line of DVDs from years ago and not actually true 4K? I guess that explains why they fit onto a BD 50, lol.

What I don't understand is why are films like the Total Recall remake being released in this line? Why wouldn't a film that recent be sourced from a 4K master to begin with?

The 35mm / 70mm stuff has to have a new 4k master to be in that line, digital has to be shot at 4k plus.

Ghostbusters looks stunning by far the best home version
