Not this again. How many screen grabs showing a blue sky do you need to not make this kind of statement? Oh, never mind.noel aguirre said:No That's Fox's Hello Dolly - where the sky is never blue and only white.
Bingo! Back to the River Hills Cinerama in Des Moines, IA in 1968! Close to South Pacific in quality.John Maher_289910 said:HELLO, DOLLY! on Blu-ray, looks exactly as it did during its roadshow presentation in theaters. I saw it 9 times, back then, and a couple more times (AFI showings), since. There is nothing wrong with that Blu-ray.

And then there's the guy who remembers the look of the movie vividly, but his memory's a little hazy about the year.bluelaughaminute said:I'm only 51 but sometimes I've forgotten what I was doing 24 hours ago.
Yet some people , like Tim Lucas for example , can tell whether a current product looks the same as it did when they visited the cinema 45 years ago - amazing .
Please forgive an ignorant question on a side issue: Should I have my Blu-Ray Player set to "Auto" or 1080i? I just don't understand this. Thank you.EddieLarkin said:How are they going to address the 30fps issue on Blu-ray? Remove six frames per second or interlace at 1080i60?
Normally 'Auto' is fine. Your player decides, based on whatever disc you are playing whether to use 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 480p, or 480i.usrunnr said:Please forgive an ignorant question on a side issue: Should I have my Blu-Ray Player set to "Auto" or 1080i? I just don't understand this. Thank you.
Well, I saw it so many times in its Todd-AO presentation, that it doesn't take much to remember it. I do, however, have complete venue recall for where I saw a movie. Back when there were neighborhood and first-run theaters, and I was seeing lots and lots of movies. We had 6 movie theaters that I could walk to, alone.bluelaughaminute said:I'm only 51 but sometimes I've forgotten what I was doing 24 hours ago.

I'm 58. But I can recall the theater, the time of day (it was a Saturday matinee) and even where I was sitting when I first saw Goldfinger with my best friend in the summer of 1965. It left that big of an impression on me!bluelaughaminute said:I'm only 51 but sometimes I've forgotten what I was doing 24 hours ago.

Thank you very much. I appreciate the information.David Weicker said:Normally 'Auto' is fine. Your player decides, based on whatever disc you are playing whether to use 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 480p, or 480i.
However, with some discs that are coded at 1080i (especially BBC discs), the header information doesn't always tell your player that it is 'i' instead of 'p'. And when you play these discs at 'Auto', you will see a judder (or skipping). If you manually change your player to the "1080i" setting, that goes away. Your player should know the difference, but on some discs, it gets confused.
For me...it was SUPERMAN THE MOVIE in 1978 as it was the first movie I was allowed to got see with just friends and without parental supervision (to this day I still get chills during the opening credits) so I get exactly what you mean, Reed.Reed Grele said:I'm 58.

Now... What was it that I had for dinner last evening???
