I never saw the BATB remake, but it looks like they're trying to do a short-by-shot remake - same colour pallet, same magic carpet design - in fact it looks like they lifted the animation cells straight out of the original instead of giving an animator a chance to design the character fresh. And Will Smith?!

This looks awful https://youtu.be/7hHECMVOq7g

Good grief, I just found out that The War of the Worlds has never been released on Blu-ray.

Great

@TomArrow Yes

It was Russian hacker

Several years ago, OT was temporaily redirecting to some defunct website for a hotel! I kid you not. Talk about a glitch in the Matrix...

Just to be safe, we do have backups of everything right?

that's sad.

@MrBrown This service has been good for years, but lately the quality went down. Random downtimes, oncr even a bad redirect to some random site to a company making windows, and now this.

Anyone else notice that "My Bloody Valentine" is on the 2019 Wishlist for Arrow Films? https://youtu.be/Bbtomc3fMt0?t=152

Thanks for the Informations, Feallan. Was this the first time, you experience problems with the hosting service?

Maybe you could share the OT server?

Thanks for the rundown Feallan

This happens when the webserver caches requests incorrectly. You go on the site and request a page with the forum, then the next person arrives and the server hands him your page instead of making a new one. I can't do anything to make sure this doesn't happen again, except for ditching my hosting service, which I think I will. I will demand explanations from them, but they basically fucked me over so hard I don't think Fanres should be in their hands

i was wondering what that snake cult was doing outside my house today..

bronan, are you sure you are still you? It seems to me that you are some crazy bad guy from Conan-something...

I did get a PM a bit ago from abolafiaa, I wonder if it was really him..

I'm still me, I think

Away from PC... hope Fealan could check everything is OK!

Does seem normal now

ATM it seems to work fine... But be carefull, and check twice, until some admin may give some enlightement.

Yes spoRv, can confirm. Thanks

Same here. I was logged in as nirbateman and Beber. But it was just the case on the main page. When I visited any topic, I was logged in myself.

Dunno what happened, but it seems now everything is OK... can you confirm, guys?

I get no such problem.

[IMPORTAN] I suggest everyone to log out, and wait until an Admin gibes notice that the actual problem is fixed!

Things are weird on the mobile as well, keeps going over to desktop version although I'm back to being zoidberg again

Same here it's really weird keep getting abolafiaa's PMs and sometimes it says I'm CSchmidlapp

Im getting some strange errors. I go to private messages and Im logged in as a different user? abolafiaa to be exact.

What? No!

Is someone messing with the forum software?

A what?

I wouldn't use MKVs, but typically the workflow is to create an EDL and work on every scene individually.

Is it feasible to split a movie into individual MKVs and work on each?

cool stuff, these optical illusions...

Optical illusions: https://michaelbach.de/ot/ - some are incredible!

Thanks to all who have been making donations to keep OT.com up and running.

Yeah... I start to put some shelves inside for my LD/DVD/HD-DVD/BD collection, and a small bed... And a refridgerator... it is nice and cozy...

@Dr. Cooper: Mr Brown is using his as a cubby house

Ugh... why is VirtualDub FilterMod so s l o w ?

@MrBrown: I also got that "Psycho"-collection on Thursday and it's not just a big box - the content is also absolutely amazing.

Yay... My German "Psycho" Box arrived... what a big box...

Awww s**t. R.I.P Mr Miller.

@frankt just check with people before buying a print to see if seller is reputable or not, simple.

@IcePrick he's known to misrepresent the condition of his films, and to take a very long time to ship them (probably to prevent buyers claiming a refund under ebay's buyer protection policy).

Who are these people, why can't they be trusted?

@Valeyard I'm curious as to why video786 should be avoided.

After what happened to Poita with that Russian TPM print, I wouldn't touch a Russian film print if it was free!

Well I'm not 100% certain, but I think that seller "salerare" works with "filmprint" who is definitely not to be trusted for reasons I won't go into in the shoutbox - I will just say I would highly suggest avoiding both sellers as well as the South African seller "video786".

He also sells a Terminator 1 print... faded with russian audio

Really? How can you tell?

I'd love that, but that's an untrusted seller.

Look! There's an open-matte Spider-Man if someone wants to get it to scan or something: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/35MM-FEATURE-...SwgRpbW4Jk

Excellent! Hopefully it won't be so green this time around.

That's awesome news

Is that true? Has anyone more infos? https://www.reddit.com/r/lotr/comments/a...much_wait/

Does anyone know if the 1989 Aussie film 'The Delinquents" was ever released in HD? And if a good quality WEB DL exists?

@FrankT there is a 1080p WEB DL

Does anyone know if Mike Todd's 'Around the World in 80 Days' was ever released in HD?

Thanks for the signal boost.

OT is needing donations, see the announcement thread over there: https://originaltrilogy.com/announcement...e/id/64583

Darn it. Well, what about that Blu-ray they released in Holland, is it any good?

According to unogs.com - it's gone

Can anyone tell me if 'The Winds of War' is still on Netflix?

There's only one real Ghostbusters 3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKa5p8KMFwg

WOW, they're making a Ghostbusters 3! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pupAzJlt7Q

Snowboarders suck! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPZDEWBzneY

I use Ecosia, myself.

recaptcha, although it used to be good before google bought it, is google now and google is evil.

@FrankT I meant website owners really, as an end user you don't have a choice, you're right about that

@TomArrow That's not easy when it's like, everywhere.

indeed, a very simple captcha where you have to type the letters is more than enough for a small blog like mine!

Captcha is definitely useful, but people should abstain from Google's reCaptcha imo, it's pure evil. There are many captcha variants out there that should do for a small-medium size blog.

Latest year I received like thousand spam posts on my blog, and few dozens real posts... now, after including captcha, almost no spam at all... I hate captcha, but it is so useful!

It's probably going to be as successful as their color grading of GBU

Yes: while the restoration was done by L'Immagine Ritrovata, the colour grading was done by Kino Lorber.

I assume it’s a green-yellow remaster like the recently released Fistful.

Anybody knows anything about Kino Lorber's release of For a few dollars more that has just been announced?

Happy New Year!

Lol that’s right. It’s the year of Blade Runner

"A new life awaits you in the Off-World Colonies. The chance to begin again in a golden land of opportunity and adventure. Lets go to the Colonies!"

Happy new year!

Happy New Year!

Happy NY!

Happy New Years Guys!

Happy New Year everyone

Happy New Year guys! We made it through another one.

Happy new year

Happy New Year! Buon Anno Nuovo!

...if we think our friends downunder are now in 2019... it's not so early, so...

Happy New Year Fanress. im starting early lol

Yeah he was way too young

@PDB It took me by surprise as well bud.

@FrankT Sure, but of course its not as flexible as a scene by scene regrade
