Now that all the Bond films are coming out on blu-ray (and apparently some color-timing mistakes being fixed as well), I'm wondering if they're going to fix one of the few, but nevertheless glaring mistakes from their Goldfinger transfer- namely, the missing frames at the 1:17:10 mark right after oddjob deliberately misses the turn to the airport.
It has been determined that the frames are only missing on the DVD releases of the film, NOT on older LD (such as the Criterion) and VHS releases.
It's an obvious jump-cut and if it's noticeable in SD, it's going to be even more noticeable in HD on a huge screen.
Will they bother to go back and fix this for the blu-ray release? It will require more work than just adjusting the color from the existing scan since they would have to retrieve the missing frames from another print/master, and I'm curious as to whether or not they're willing to go to the trouble........
