So, there is still no re-release with the pilot complete? The old Pal VHS had extra scenes at the beginning that were cut once this landed on DVD.

Man, there are 30 to 50 different deliverables. Tashi Trieu goes about it on his website. They are all adjusted differently. With T2 in 4K, the framing is different between the UHD and the Blu-ray. So there's bound to be problems. That's why some mixes are corrected, other not, within the same...

That was the december DCP I guess. As you probably noticed, not one deliverable on these films is 100% matching. You have differences in framing, mixes etc.

Well to complicate matters even more, the DCP of The Abyss SE is the same scan but without Park Road destructive pass. Mostly obvious in VFX shots, where different footage blended seamlessly around objects. It's true though the original scan from 10 years ago, has a different color timer and...

IMAX cameras for underwater shooting. Those would have gone straight to the bottom!

Look guys, what Cameron did on all these films, is a remix. He remixed the PQ. (And also the AQ, but let not go into that because it's a vacuum). Like any remix, people are free to embrace it, or dismiss it. Debating the quality of the remix, though, is I think good, just stay civil and it...

Watch closer. (I think True Lies is watchable though, from a distance, it's nice to see it again completely clean). The one, I can't watch for more than a few minutes is ALIENS. Ripley/Sig had when she shot this film an iron metal grey filling in her lower, left teeth, and the A.I. makes it...

It all boils down to: do you enjoy Tia Carrere growing face fungus on one shot, that disappears in the next shot, then grows in an out of her face in the following shot, or not?

The original poster specifically said he saw a 70mm version of ALIENS "director's cut" ie SE, which does not exist.

Yes that was my point. You wrote ALIENS instead of The Abyss in the original post. There was no 70mm release (or any cinema release) of ALIENS SE.

Cameron was never asked anything. He used that ruse to get Sigourney's deal made. He never planned to do the film without Ripley.

Hi, sorry to ask but, the Special Edition of ALIENS (there is no director's cut as every cut of ALIENS is a director's cut), was never released in theaters. You must be confusing with The Abyss?

There's no conundrum. You should keep all your collection, as often, old versions have an edge over re-release, like untouched audio mixes, or bonuses etc.

I never said it was yours, or mine. But the audience.

Sure. But we can always go back to an earlier home-video release. Or a RAH restoration when it exists ;)
