Always funny to see a crew member's hand used for an insert.

I believe it was Rian Johnson who said that insert shots of hands are often the director's "cameo".

Not to knock the person, but Bob Zemeckis would have been in his thirties, and those hands look a but older.

They might mention it in one of the commentaries.

This looks glorious. Another great encode by Duplitech. Amazing highlight recovery in caps 2, 9. I also didn’t see any chroma noise, which some of their encodes had until recently. Hopefully Shout already locked in Challengers and Suspiria.

Screenshot 2 and 20 appear to be the only opticals you captured and no. 20 looks good to me, so maybe they only processed the long introductory shot over the (now rebuilt) credits. If this is everything, I can more than live with it. Again, gorgeous master and an encode that looks as close to perfect as it can get. Hopefully Curzon and VDMS team up again to match Carlotta’s excellence.
