What makes you think it’s the restored version on Amazon?Looks fantastic. I just noticed the restored version is on Amazon Prime HD and including the overture. One of Elmer Bernstein’s best scores.
The HDnet movies version looks better. Not sure why.
Movies because I seriously doubt another BD release is coming.Where should it be posted ?
What is “restored?”A guilty pleasure of mine, The Hallelujah Trail is now showing in a gorgeous new HD transfer in HDnet movies. The overture is gone but I’m happy to finally see a beautiful new transfer of the film!
Last night, I added it to my Amazon Prime watchlist. I didn't see a HD version for sale so is this definitely in HD? I never did buy the Olive BD because of the bad reviews.Wow. I just threw the Amazon Prime version up on my projector. What an amazing difference. The Olive Blu-ray is definitely a piece of garbage by comparison. The sound has also been upgraded to 5.1. Aspect ratio is 2.35:1 and not Ultra-Panavision, though. So they need to make this available for sale somewhere so we can own it.
Yep it’s HD and Ken is right in that it looks like a brand-new transfer.Last night, I added it to my Amazon Prime watchlist. I didn't see a HD version for sale so is this definitely in HD? I never did buy the Olive BD because of the bad reviews.
I'll check it out as I started to sample it last night until I saw the blackened screen for the overture and lost interest in skipping around it.Yep it’s HD and Ken is right in that it looks like a brand-new transfer.
But is this supposed new master in the correct aspect ratio (2.76:1) or the same old cropped 2.35:1?
The new HD master is on Prime. The awful old SD transfer is available for purchase.Last night, I added it to my Amazon Prime watchlist. I didn't see a HD version for sale so is this definitely in HD? I never did buy the Olive BD because of the bad reviews.
I saw it growing up when I was in San Diego. It played for 13 weeks. I went almost every SaturdayWasn't this one of those super duper roadshow flops that ran only a couple of months first run? Hope it comes out on bluray. To have seen it 10 times first run I imagine you would have had to have gone once a week. Had I been old enough during the roadshow era I would have done the same thing.
