The Barrymore Film Center in Fort Lee.

The H-Man is available on a double feature Blu-Ray with Battle in Outer Space.

Yes, that's a danger.

I know a rep theater in northern New Jersey is having their booker contact Warner about the 70mm print.

There are two coming up in LA that are mentioned in this thread. Presumably there will be others as Warner works with local rep theaters and film bookers to firm up dates.

The restored release of The Searchers just premiered at the TCM festival. It hasn't played on the channel.

The review states:

"We will be making the 70mm available to exhibition in North America, with plans to roll out to International markets."

I'd love to see it either way, but 4k is probably 'safer' in most venues. As long as they don't relegate this to a Fathom Event.

The final sequence was optically altered to avoid an X rating. As far as I remember from the special features on the Blu release, the original unaltered footage does not survive.

The audio issue they fixed was that the mono track wasn’t the original, it was a fold down of the 5.1 remix so it had new and incorrect sound effects (a faucet squeak in the shower scene is the example most cited). The fixed pressing has the correct original mono track, but they did not fix the...

Very interesting, thanks. I knew that Disney used to use that process but never found an explanation for what it exactly was.

I bought this one when my mother in law stayed with us in 2018: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002GR1YZ0 She was able to operate it with progressive Alzheimer's.

We had Dullea and Lockwood as guests at the Lafayette in 2004 for a screening and it was a blast. Both guys were friendly to everyone and patiently did a Q&A on a Sunday night after the film, then another hour signing autographs. Standing at the back of the auditorium with the two of them as the...

If you don't type "www" you get a blank page.

I have a lot of these and similar snipes (from Archive.org and other sources) and they are fun to use like that with a show for a group. Only issue with Plex player (and Infuse) on AppleTV is a playback gap between them or a filename display that comes up. I usually end up putting them on a...

Yes, my Criterion LD CAV set went bye-bye to rot a long time ago.

Both good questions... to which I don't have an answer. :) I've only ever noticed surface contamination like that on some (but not all) discs that were stored in an unheated garage.

They shouldn't be there at all. Is it possible you have a humidity issue and the spots are indications of mildew and/or mold?

Only had time for one pass each of Live and Let Die and Octopussy over the weekend and they are terrific releases. Congratulations to all concerned who worked to get these released.

Looking forward to finally getting these - my shipment from moviemusic.com is out for delivery today!

They press whatever the minimum the replicator will do, possibly 500 or 1000.

You would connect the minidisk to that phono input and put the switch above it to "line" Or you can connect the MD player to the 3.5mm AUX input

Answered my own question by watching it tonight on Paramount +. The credits at the end reference the new 4K master from Park Road. I can only watch in 1080 on my projector and thought it looked good, but I haven’t seen the film in any form for over 20 years so have nothing to compare it to. It...

Would it have been easier to use disk cloning software to transfer the old installation to the new disc?

It's now streaming on Paramount+ (theatrical version). Is there a way to tell if it's the new master?

I’m glad it’s working out.

I'm assuming you went through the test tones to set the speaker levels. If you didn't, that should be something to do. Also, after setting those levels, you can raise the center a couple of notches so that it can cut through some of the louder soundtracks. It's not ideal, but it can help.
