Dude not meaning to criticize but in your spider man homecoming regrade you made the walls look purple. Same with this things that shouldn’t look purple look purple.

Thanks for the feedback. Spiderman: Homecoming is fine, what I have found from my experience regrading is that films that were shot on digital always have a colder/flatter feel than those shot on film when all the blanket tint is removed. I think this has something to do with the way digital cameras capture colours compared to actual film stock, where the colour/image dynamic tends to feel warmer and more contrasty. That’s why I much prefer working on films that have been shot on actual film because of that warmer/more contrasty asthetic that they have, not to mention all that natural organic film grain that I love 😃

I have been taking another look at the Man of Steel blu-ray and do have to agree that this V2 regrade feels colder than I would like. I’m very pleased with V1 and I can see why I left a lot more of the yellow in. I’m actually think there could be a blanket green tint instead of a blanket yellow tint on the blu-ray. I’m encoding a new ‘gold edition’ of Man of Steel where I have taken this different approach of removing the blanket green tint, then everybody will be able to choose which of the three versions they prefer, V1, V2 or the ‘gold edition’.

these will only be in 9GB release only right?

If you’re refering to the Gold Edition, I decided to scrap that release. I explain why in the post above. If you’re refering to V2, for now yes. That can change of course if the V2 release becomes more popular than it currently is right now. V1 of course already has a 22gb release on Myspleen.

I have V1 from the TehParadox days and it is my go to version for Man of Steel. I can’t watch the blu-ray or my iTunes copy anymore because of how dim and yellow/greenish it appears. Similar to Logan, the regrade brings out details not seen before and really highlights the red of the cape too and adds so much more to the viewing experience of the film.

What KK did for both films is truly amazing he should be hired for the home entertainment industry

After tehparadox went down and all the file host links to my regrades went down with it, continuing to use file hosts was no longer an option. I will be uploading my releases only to torrents from now on and I won’t be changing my mind on that.

Be patient and give it time, I also want to be able to share my work on recent films in as high quality as possible, but the conditions have to be right and they aren’t yet.

Not being dissentive here but I question how useful 2gb and also 9gb torrents of your regrades to gauge interest in 22gb versions is. Most fans ignore lower bit uploads and the effort to seed them which muddles the results. They then become bored waiting for the ultra quality encodes since all these films have been watchable for weeks or months in various forms already.

If you check the statistics of the torrents, you’ll actually see that the vast majority of downloads are for the 2gb releases, so actually more fans are ignoring the larger 9gb releases than vise versa. The smaller 2gb releases are much more popular than the 9gb releases, that is an undeniable fact.

Watching the seed/peer/number of downloads stats of the 2gb and 9gb releases is the only way to get a good idea of which releases are more popular and decide which releases should get higher bitrate releases. Its not a perfect system but its the best I can think of.

My advice to you is don’t wait, watch the actual blu-ray when it comes out and then wait patiently for a possible 22-23gb release.

ok boss! we will wait for your magic!

ok I undestand! no worries

conditions have to be right - does that mean high demand on your work?

KK will you be doing 22Gb on this?

I’ve created a 23gb version of this release and written it to a BD25 for my personal collection but IMHO there isn’t enough interest at this point to justify uploading such a large release to a public torrent.

I’ll be keeping an eye on the 2gb and 9gb releases for now, see how things develop.

oh come on boss, I was looking forward for 23GB…oh mann, can’t you add trim on a private file host link how you did on TP
or it’s a long process?

all your fans are on other forums that’s why their isn’t enough interest, hope that changes!!!

Just Myspleen for now, though I’ve also uploaded this release to 1fichier for a friend.

If anybody is interested in those 1fichier links, send me a PM.

oh only 1fichier not UL or RG?

i don’t think Myspleen will be active again for new members

won’t you put this film on the torrent site you sent me link before or will take too long upload?

thanks

1fichier is a much better file hoster for free users compared to Uploaded and Rapidgator. Uploading the 22gb Regraded Blade Runner: The Final Cut V2 release to 1fichier was a one off as a favour to a friend, I no longer upload releases to file hosting sites.

I plan to slowly start introducing releases that are not so recent like John Wick and John Wick Chapter 2 and move backwards in time from there, see how it goes. If things go well and the interest and support is there for older releases, making Blade Runner available as well on the same site is very much possible.

many thanks K

any chance of the 1fichier 2gb Regraded Blade Runner: The Final Cut V2 via PM i try the free user option since you said it ok

many thanks KK

Right, I know that’s what’s been done, but why? Is there any reason to believe the yellow tint isn’t intentional? In a modern DI workflow that involves no photochemical steps, there’s no reason to doubt what’s been released.

most blu-ray titles come with yellow and green tint these days and its noticeable KK650 removes it to make the picture look more better and perfect
but some people like it with awful tint!

sorry but haven’t used torrent sites since 2002 do the files, links stay active meaning alive or they get removed after awhile like file host?

YOU are essentially the files. Basically, one guy has the files (AKA seeder) while others get copies of data blocks of those files while also obtaining them from everybody else who is connected at that time. Once you’ve obtained the files in full, you are now a seeder. If you decide to leave, that’s one less seeder available to distribute the files. If all seeders leave, there’s nothing left to distribute. Sometimes, as a leecher (somebody wanting the files), you can stick around regardless of the fact there are no seeders and one will appear but more often than not, if there are no seeders, that torrent is more or less dead.

Some people “dine & dash” in the sense they download the files but leave immediately after getting what they want. It doesn’t help others and it’s frowned upon but it’s mainly the honor system, really. People encourage each other to be generous with seeding. Otherwise, torrents die and this distribution model won’t work.

wow is that how it works many thanks for useful info…

Sorry about the delay guys. The new V2 22GB regraded release of Blade Runner: The Final Cut is now up on Myspleen.

Tomorrow I will be putting up regraded releases of Spiderman: Homecoming, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell no Tales and Wonder Woman. I’ll let everybody that’s sent me a private message know where once I have them up.

oh man, Spiderman: Homecoming and Wonder Woman, we can’t download your latest titles!
no access for new members

btw KK you do your files in 22GB still?

No need to worry, I’ll be putting up all releases of recent films on public torrents so everybody will have access to Spiderman: Homecoming and Wonder Woman.

I will be starting with smaller releases like I did on tehparadox and based on how popular a release is (how well seeded it is in the case of torrents) I will decide whether or not to put up higher bitrate releases. I’ll start with 2-3gb 1080p .mp4 releases and work up to 8gb and then 22gb releases if the interest is there to justify them.

I have just uploaded the regraded release of Wonder Woman. I’ll let everybody that’s sent me a PM know where.

Many thanks KK I have most of 22GB titles truly amazing work!

I thought you was going to do your list like TP only 8gb and 22GB release
