theres a ton of audio tracks on fanres.com
no pms needed for many of them

It’s a pretty popular cult movie it should get a 4k soon. The laser disc has the best audio for the movie tho.
The 1988 MGM Connery collection LD has better audio than the criterions according to the bad audio on blu-ray site
Dr.no doesn’t seem to have decent audio on any format tho
That sounds good.
The remix may sound better but it uses SFX that wasn’t around in the 70’s. At least it doesn’t sounded heavily filtered.
tightrope 1984 , clint eastwood
on imdb its listed as dolby but it doesn’t say on the end credits or posters and VHS / LD releases are mono aside from dvd/blurays.
Does anybody have the ac3 from the full screen dvd?
I did a resync for all the analog tracks + the digital track of dead pool. Not sure if u did that already or not.
If someone has decent voice acting skills maybe they can dub it into the ld track .
Falcon
Do u have la femme Nikita on ld?
The gauntlet has a lot of added lfe it would probably sound the same the as the original audio with a mixdown
I was thinking of getting the vhs tapes to sync Clint’s ape movies but then I saw the prices :p
For LD I
Don’t think a pcm track is available in mono just a stereo mix so would have to use analog Ld
Heartbreak ridge and gauntlet were stereo but I can tell they were tinkered with for the 5.1
the LD is supposed to be free of any noise reduction compared to the bluray mono
IT would probably be too much work but i wouldn’t mind syncing the original audio to the directors cut , I’ve never seen the original but it sounds like modernized effects were added to the DC.
I’d like to to just see them uploaded to YouTube as deleted scenes.
The only change I really noticed on br was a door slam other that it’s pretty close to it’s original mix. Don’t like the added dialog when roy chases JF either
im surprised no one mentioned the new mint green chocolate look to midnight cowboy.
The 1982 movie “Firefox” has apparently been altered audio-wise on modern home video releases. I’ve never seen the movie, so I couldn’t tell you what’s been changed.
Pretty much all of the old Clint movies were altered . The gauntlet has way too much LFE for a movie made in 77. Even the dead pool
Which had a Dolby track has new effects. I wouldn’t be surprised if heartbreak ridge or the rookie was changed as well.
Luckily someone posted the ld versions for the dirtyharolds
Day of the locust
Mono is missing from web releases
The sound is wrong on almost all the bond blurays / 4k releases before tmnd
Aside from the overdone remixes all of the mono mixes are compressed and noised reduced so badly it sounds like am radio . The only one they somewhat got right was the original mix for spy who loved me at 448kps. No noise reduction has been applied and you can hear bass during the fight scenes on the rooftop unlike the 5.1 hopefully they’ll include the original mixes uncompressed on 4k blu
I honestly didn’t notice much difference with the ld audio and the dts on that one.
Naked gun has never been released with its original mono aside from ld/vhs
I watched a sample from a view to a kill iTunes 4k and noticed quite a bit of cropping was done on the bluray . The framing and overall pq on the 4k version is much better Unfortunately it has the same crappy remix as the blurays with all the bass taken out.
I didn’t notice a huge difference in pq on living daylights, dr no or her ohmss tho haven’t seen goldeneye version but I imagine it’s a lot better
Every which way but loose
Any which way you can
They completly butchered the whole thing . It doesn’t sound like a movie made in the 70s anymore
Thought it would be a misprint but a reviewer of the newer 5.1 disc said the old version was stereo so guess laserdisc is the only way to go
