It has been confirmed that the TT release will come from a new transfer. I'm certain that it will be a massive upgrade.John Hermes said:Hopefully, The Blue Max is a big upgrade from the German BD , which is underwhelming.
1. The German BD probably came from the same dirty, flicker-filled master that the DVD was sourced from and only had stereo audio.
2. Fox has been in the habit of using the OCNs for their CinemaScope classic releases lately. The Blue Max is a very late 'Scope era production shot on more stable post-5248 stocks. So the OCN will be more serviceable than others.
3. The audio will probably be a 4.0 or 5.1 DTS-HD MA mix as opposed to a lousy 2.0 mix-down. Personally, I'm hoping for a more faithful 4.0 if the original tracks still exist.
