zer0spunk posted:I would love for milestone to license the 4k scan of yo soy cuba they've been holding hostage for a few years now. The guy who runs Milestone frequents forums often and confirmed both I Am Cuba and Killer of Sheep are coming in 2024. They switched to Kino Lorber for distribution and just this year we finally got six upgrades: The Sorrow and the Pity, The Edge of the World, The Exiles, Picadilly, Man Without a World, and The Spanish Dancer. Apparently there was some holdup that was finally resolved this year. I agree about box sets. I like how Universal offered the Hitchcock 4Ks individually alongside the boxes. The Sony Pictures Classics box looked interesting, but I'm not paying that much for UHD-only without even digital codes (plus, who the hell needs The Celluloid Closet in 4K when it doesn't even have a Blu?) FrumpleOrz posted:Clara Bow's It from 1927. It's a shame her most known work's best version is on an out of print Kino DVD from ages ago. Paramount actually just finished a new restoration. No idea who has it, but I'd put my money on it either being a Paramount Presents release or it got licensed to Kino Lorber.

Yeah, I hate that they stopped putting out UHDs for Stranger Things at Season 3... it's the most colorful and popping season. It deserves UHD w. Dolby Vision! Also, Fargo S3 on Blu-Ray, dammit!!!

Palm Springs is available on Region B disc if you want although I agree it should get a domestic release.

I saw him mention how he'd love to get Dogma back on social media recently too. I guess those releases of his old movies are owned by the studios so it's out of his hands. Mallrats gets re-released a lot. (Oh right that's Universal)Origami Dali posted:Movies are typically edited/color corrected on professional monitors calibrated to the D65 standard for white, which will make for a much warmer color temperature than "standard mode" on consumer TVs. Most of the time, TV "movie mode" presets are closer to that standard, at least when it comes to color temp, as well as better brightness/gamma levels. It's a good starting point, but you'll still prob need to choose a warmer setting in the temp options, you'll need to turn down sharpness, turn off that bullshit motion smoothing, turn off dnr, etc. Newer TVs now sometimes have a "filmmaker mode" preset which does everything to get you as close as possible to the standard without manual tweaking and also turns off all the other adulterations too, so if you have a TV with that, it's prob the best choice. Thanks for the TV tips, folks. For video games that still looks a bit odd to me so have that closer to the middle, but I'm trying movies on warm at the moment. The TCL S4 TV I have has several steps between full -5 warm and 0 normal as well to try, interesting indeed. Heavy Metal fucked around with this message at 04:45 on Nov 20, 2023 |

Weinstein would have to file the takedown request with YouTube... I think it'll be safe

It's absolutely a film that should have a release by some boutique label like Eureka in the UK as well. I love the film to bits, but goddamn, it's been let down hard by prior attempts at putting it on HD.

MacheteZombie posted:Planning an elaborate heist to steal masters of Freaked and Freddy Got Fingered You have my axe, especially when it comes to Freaked. I'm surprised streaming services aren't teaming up with a MOD place to release titles on DVD or Blu-ray. Seems like an easy source of extra revenue, but that would probably mean a new deal with the creatives involved or just paying them more because of the physical release and well, they don't seem to want to do that unless absolutely necessary.

gently caress it, I’ll say it (and this is extremely on-brand for me), I want a 4K release of Aliens vs Predator: Requiem with the brightness corrected to what it was in theatres. Apparently the only way to watch it even remotely close is Australian Disney+ for some reason.

"these are my angry shoes" IFC used to play the hell out of this like 12x a month e: tales from the hood is getting a 4k (and he apparently directed 2 more of those, who knew) so maybe it'll get a release someday. i liked it better then CB4 and that got an extensive release by kino lorber in 2021 zer0spunk fucked around with this message at 19:00 on Nov 20, 2023 |

CelticPredator posted:It was dark as gently caress in the theaters too. The Strauss’s be lyin It was dark, but nowhere near as dark as the home releases. I’m speaking from experience, and there’s a shitload of other people saying the same thing on AvP forums. According to an Australian viewer, the Australian D+ release is markedly brighter (and closer to the theatrical version) than the Region 4 release, which is brighter than the Region 1 release, which is dark as gently caress. Edit: https://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/index.php?topic=64983.0 My Australian friend says the clips in that link match his D+ experience.
