    HTF Warner Tv/Animation Chat 9/15/08 - summary - to be updated live

    That third person asking about Animaniacs 4 was asking what the deal was but he answered it still the same with "no plans". That was my question as well. Was it due to low sales on the other volumes or some other issue.

    New Peanuts releases

    Warner does some of the best remastering there is. If these episodes have been remastered like some of their older movies they probably will look like their a week old instead of 50 years old. If they got the regular tv show on dvd treatment then theres probly nothing improved. They do all come...

    MGM SONY Re releases

    Im sure i possibly missed it in another thread but are all these mgm sony rereleases the same crumby transfers? The Graduate, Secret of NIMH west side story Some Like It Hot etc. I see nimh is still full screen. and graduate seems to not be listed as 16x9 so i am assuming there the same. thanks

    Basic Instinct

    THis is true too and is the original question i was asking. The dvd does contain a new interview so even if its not a new transfer the compression and all from a 06 pressing may make it better. Other then that i dont know.

    How about an anamorphic SE of Cabaret?

    Im wondering why nobody has said anything at these Warner chats about the horrible copy of Cabaret that Warner has out. It looks as bad as Return of the Pink Panther....Ill use that as an example. Its not 16.9 its not 5.1 and looks like it was run over several times. It won so many Oscars too...

    FoxNews returns to SIRIUS March 1

    I wish MSNBC would get on Sirius already. Its the one reason I havent switched from XM. Even half the hosts on MSNBC talks about how they have Sirius for Howard even when there exclusive to XM.

    Titanic picture problem

    I can only describe it as a studder of a frame with some lines around any movement but if it shows up on another player that im going to try ill exchange it. Its most evident in chapter 21. I cant get it to show up in frame by frame still, but in every case its in the same spot each time. The...

    Titanic picture problem

    Nope During the entire scenes I listed maybe every 30 seconds or so , the footage will have this jumpyness to it on and off. Then another cut scene will play and be fine then a few scenes later it goes on again. Very strange but theres definatly something not right about mine.

    Titanic picture problem

    Has anyone else reported jumpy video on certain scenes on the deleted reel? Namely track 9, 19, 21 and some others? Looks sorta like when im watching Direct tv and is looses a few frames cause of rain or something. It seems to either freeze for a frame then jump ever so slightly. I can go into...

    There isnt an actor or director or someone big on film preservation that can be told about this and talk the studio into doing something about it?

    IT's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World Restoration

    IT's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World Restoration

    Hasn't this been said about other films like Kane and Kong and others. Then they find other prints and able to make a copy that looks like it was shot last week. It just takes years longer searching across the world for prints. No?

    IT's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World Restoration

    I heard that as well about the sales after Nov but I dont have a reference on it. Aside from the music thats in the intermission I read somewhere that there was police radio updates on the chase during the intermission in some version. Anyone know if thats true?

    IT's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World Restoration

    I actually only saw parts of the movie till i bought the laser disc but I think if I saw the theatrical then the extended i would have preferred the extended. I generally always prefer director cuts and extended versions. But both versions should be available to make everyone happy of course...

    IT's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World Restoration

    There's a ton of even more footage that wasn't on the laser disc version on the DVD. Near the end of the extra footage there were entire sequences and alternate takes as well. I would hope that there's some kind of original written account for what goes where if they eventually do it...

    IT's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World Restoration

    Im one of few of my film friends in my age group that knows and loves this film. Unfortunately its the road show version that I only know after buying the laser disc version over ten years ago when it came out. So the current DVD is almost unwatchable to me now. After just watching Simpsons...

    Home VHS to DVD (I cant be the first and wont be the last)
