Sky Hits HD (UK) showing Jurassic World - https://twitter.com/JurassicOutpost

This will most likely be the same open matte version. Sky HD has previously aired all the earlier Jurassic Park films in open matte 1.78:1. Those in the UK can have a look and compare, maybe take a few screenshots.

Sky’s version is not the open matte version unfortunately, was also disappointed they didn’t get Spectre in open matte either like they did with SkyFall, hopefully ITV will when they show it (with logo though) as they’ve shown all previous Daniel Craig Bond’s open matte.

Blurg gone for good, seems like most of the people have gone over to BHD, anyone got an invite they could let me have, it would be appreciated, please pm me.

I assume Exclusive means you have your own separate section and only allow access via way of invitation only.

Not a member of Cinematik and looks like registration is closed so would have to vote against it unless someone was willing to give me an invite or Usenet is still on the table as a second choice as then I can get them there.

Does the German hdtv have the same amount of Dnr as the Bluray.

The German HDTV is from the same source, just with the alternate footage – all the same scan, etc.

Not according to reports over at the forum with Blu in the title, the German hdtv is supposedly from a newer scan where as the Bluray is taken from the same source as the itunes.

I think the Sky Hd cap is the best for this version.

For those who know me, you’re probably aware of my OFF THE CUTTING ROOM FLOOR fan edit of JAWS THE REVENGE, which aimed to reinstate the deleted scenes (in their correct order) present in the AMC cut of JAWS THE REVENGE. This is now finished, and ready for upload. But before I put it on the 'Spleen, I decided to try something else.

On June 14th, 2016, the Blu-ray for JAWS THE REVENGE was released in the United States. The release used the usual “exploding shark” revised ending, but featured the original theatrical ending (although missing a sequence) as a bonus feature, and in 1080p HD!

For those who don’t know the difference between the cuts of the film, check this handy guide out – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iSZ0PTriHA

The problem is, the Blu-ray special feature is missing the theatrical version of “Jake’s demise” which features 3 alternate shots. I am in possession of said frames, but they come from a 720p Deutsch HDTV rip of the theatrical cut (which is incredibly rare to find in HD and OAR) with a channel logo burnt onto the video.

Here are the frames in question - http://imgur.com/a/y9V4s

I have, however, been able to reconstruct the integral pieces (i.e. shark’s demise, pre-dubbed plane sequence, etc), which you can see here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TN44G2TNR18

Other than the missing sequence, the project is virtually complete and in full 1080p. Does anyone perhaps have access to a rip that contains these frames? Now, I could just forget these frames and call it a day - but in the end, it’s not a TRUE theatrical reconstruction without those three shots!

Yeah, Chrome won’t let me bypass their filter to visit the site either, and suggests it was hacked.

Does anyone know how to contact them and find out whats going on, does Vinnie still post here.

I tried to log in to everything a few months+ ago and nothing worked and now I have no idea where it is even at, but all is good, no worries.

You’re old login should work, mine does. Here’s the website:

https://blurg.xyz/

Is blurg down for everyone in last few days, Firefox says the site owner has configured their website improperly and won’t let you add an exception and safari on ios brings up a weird login box. Looks like it may have been hacked.

As already said the Canal+ and Sky Anytime Hd caps are better than this itv showing (I watched it) so why the need to remove the logo when there is better out there.

+1 for usenet or if not, myspleen.

Both the Canal+ (ugly logo though and the one available where it has bern removed isn’t done very well) and Anytime HD Sky are much better than the ITV one.

Usenet would be fine, prefer that to torrent’s anyway. Thanks again for all the work you put into these projects.

Thanks for the update, Dark Jedi, been waiting for this release. Await share info. Hope you manage to find the scum thats trying to make a quick buck off your hard work, always someone out there that needs to ruin things for others.

Hi Dark Jedi,

What source are you using for the main video for this?

Not sure if you’ve seen it but the best source I,ve seen yet is a custom bluray made using a capture of the Vudu HDX version from a PS3 using the AverTv bogus driver and synced with slowed down tracks from a European dvd. There is also a Sky Hd Capture as well but out of the two would say the Vudu beats it hands down, better grain retention.

It is still available on usenet (posted in 2012), pm me if you need the file name/password.

Dark Jedi, would also love to get a copy of The Warriors when its finished. Please keep us informed when its available either here or via pm.

Thanks in advance.

There was a 1080i true capture of the Hdnet on Usenet, not re-encoded, back in Oct 2008, not quite as good as the Wowow capture of the theatrical but pretty close:

Heres the log:

I have it archived somewhere in my collection but for the life of me, can’t remember where, if I find it I,ll let you know. Otherwise, a premium provider like newshosting my still be able to get it, around 2750 days old.

The Sky does not have the same amount of Dnr the Bluray has although it has compression artifacts and slight filtering due to there poor encoders. Take a screenshot of both when the sparks are coming off the wheel of the Delorean and you will see alot are missing on the Bluray due to automated clean up. The Hdnet version is more filtered than the Sky from what I remember.

 Ah so I saw DNR but its the same master that was then over DNR'd for the BD.

DO you have the file names by chance? I am only finding the HDnet over and over 

 As far as I remember it could be Sky's own filtering due to there encoder rather than DNR on the HDTV master.

I get what you mean, it's a shame a DCP will never be made for the sequels.

Mind you we are beyond lucky this was unlocked in the first place.

 Hoping at least Wowow decide to show them and someone caps them when they do or Universal decide to eventually do 4k remasters (highly unlikely in the near future).

Before the DCP came along the Wowow version of Back to the Future was the best but obviously had subtitles. The guy that did the original encode of the DCP prior to this originally used the Wowow and meticulously removed the subtitles using the Harold Nipps method (spoRv, I,ll send you information about this method later if I can find it), it must of taken him days as you could not see any instance of the subtitles is was that good, the best I've seen.

The DCP is the same master that was used for the Wowow broadcast minus all the compression artifacts that come with television encoders and is the best available until a 4K master comes along.

Now that should put that debate to bed once and for all. Same questions over and over asking the same thing that has already been discussed prior.

Canal+ with logo (15 Mbps) of 2 is the best followed by Sky Hd (average 10 Mbps).

That puts that to bed.

Sky Anytime Hd of 3 (average 13 Mbps) is the best followed by HdNet (18 Mbps).

That puts that to bed.

Yeah, I forgot I read about the vertical stretch, but from what I've seen of the screenshots the vertical stretch is not that noticeable. I,ll reserve judgement until I actually see the disc for myself.

Seriously? Dude, people do have a life and can't always reply instantly.

x5gb did answer to most of your questions in the posts above anyway.

@x5gb:

Do you have more informations about these Sky Anytime HD versions?

ilovewaterslides, what do you want to know about the Sky Anytime HD versions.

On 2 the Canal+ with logo (15 Mbps) is better, of course the Sky doesn't have the logo but is at the expense of slightly less detail / grain retention due to their encoder / compression (average around 10 Mbps)

On 3 the Sky is much better than the Bluray obviously without the Dnr / EE and has a pretty good bitrate (average 13.19 Mbps) compared to normal Sky everyday encodes but would still suffer from slightly less detail / grain retention compared to a Canal+ encode if it was available which sadly it isn't (or the holy grail Wowow or DCP if they were available)

There also US HdNet Mpeg2 (18 Mbps) available of both but due to there poor encoders / filtering actually look worse than any of the above despite the higher bitrate as well as having the Hdnet logo appearing on occasion.

Supposedly the new Lionsgate May 19 re-release while not a remaster has the best picture quality of all releases of the existing master including the French Hd-dvd and Japan Premium V1.0 and V2.0. There is no visible Dnr or EE and the new encode supposedly brings out more detail compared to all above.
