Ghostbusters (1984) - HDTV regrade

23 Replies, 8771 Views

Made a regrade using HDTV as source; why? Because, even if it has lower quality than BD, it has bigger frame size in most shots (particularly in the first part of the movie); it could also be used just where the frame size is bigger, though…

Comparison: HDTV (DVD colors), BD 2009, regrade

I know a 35mm print scan of the movie exists floating about on the internet. I haven't seen any footage of it though apart from a few screencaps on some website awhile back though. Wonder how well that'd serve to make a regrade of the HDTV or UHD master.

Also great, I only saw the mentioning of it being on MySpleen now AFTER I wrote this. D'OH!

@marin888

Is that an old print from when the movie was released or some kind of newly struck recent print?
There is no info. Source:.https://twitter.com/musicboxtheatre/status/700411547949080576

If it's mag striped it's original. No one stripes 70mm anymore, modern prints have to use DTS CD-ROMs.

I never could find that HDTV anywhere. If anyone has it I'd love to check it out
Is there a way to tell if it's mag striped from the images?
The black stripes either side of the sprockets (2 thick, 2 thin, containing the 6 tracks). Modern 70mm would only include the timecode track for DTS, the rest of the outer edges of the frame would be clear.
70MM / UHD
