Is the original color timing blu ray disc a unique version or is it a re-issued disc?

It's the 2007 transfer on a new disc.

Thank you.

Good to see they consider that one the original color timing because that's how I always felt about it, my favorite out of the bluray releases. I think the Limited Edition Anchor Bay DVD (that also had the TV release) is the superior color-timing, the 2007 blu being very close to it.

Then you perform 2:3 pulldown so that it plays at 29.97fps, and then just double that for the 59.94 refresh rate. I have no idea how 24fps works on 59.95Hz TVs these days. Maybe there’s some newer technology that displays it properly.

There is, and my 13 year old display is able to display 24fps.

The 25th?! **** you Shout.

It's not your brain you and my eyeballs have 3 cones. Oof You don't see out of your brain silly willy.



It's just overly saturated and if you like that fine. I don't like green street signs that are yellow in real life nor do I like and blue signs that are white in real life. But you do disillusioned you

If you know how to look at light, you'll be able to see it, but you have to know what your looking for. It's easiest if you can compare different light sources together then it's really easy to see the different colors coming from the light.

Our brain does adjust to light in the way we perceive what's in front of us. Turn on a tungsten light and things will look normal to you. Then go into another room and turn on a florescent light and things will still look normal to you. But, if your photographing using both of those existing light sources, with film balanced for daylight, your pictures will have two very different shades of color. If you can stand between the two different light sources you'll see it's easy to see the difference in color between the two.

Here's a sampling of what I'm talking about

Camera Wizard - White Balance (Fluorescent) - YouTube

In the video, he's using a video camera that can adjust for different light temperatures or in other words a way to change the white point based on what type of light your using. Also in this video (in this case) he's not changing the light source, he's changing the white point for different types of light, but because the light source is the same; what we end up seeing is different colors as a result each time he changes the white point/color temperature settings.

With film, there is no adjusting of the white point. So if the film you're using is balanced at 6500K, any color temperature higher than that will have whites that look bluer (or cooler.) When the sun is low and the light being filtered through much more atmosphere, the color temperature of the light will be around 4500K or so, and if your shooting with daylight film balanced for 6500K the film will record objects with a much more yellowish and or reddish look.

When you walk outside and watch the sun set, if it's a clear sky, you probably don't realize how red and yellowish things look around you. But on film, it's easy to record and display those warm colors.

Higher color temperatures = cooler looking colors.
Lower color temperatures = warmer looking colors.

Also in the video, you'll see warmer colors when he sets it to a daylight setting. That's because the lighting he's starting with is low in color temperature and the white point in the camera is set to a higher color temperature. The camera is expecting to see white as being around 6500K, but the lighting is not 6500K, it's much lower than that so the resulting color looks warmer. (Lower color temperatures = warmer looking colors.)

In that case, it should end up near your front door.

Got a reply!

Thanks for your order, and sorry for the delay in reply and in shipping.

I've asked our depot to ship this as soon as possible. It may be too late for them to hand to UPS today, but please be in touch if you don't see an automatic tracking email arrive at the email address associated with the order by the end of tomorrow.

Thanks for your patience,
Shout!

Hopefully it ships today.

Agree to disagree...as it's not even an installment in any timeline of this series, I'm not missing anything by skipping it...

At the very least you’re missing a great score by Carpenter & Howarth as well as the hunk Tom Atkins.

[schwano]

My order from Shout of all 5 with the posters is out for delivery! Very excited!

[Martoto]

A score only track would have been a very welcome bonus on 1-3's discs.

Atkins (as Dan Challis) really needs a cameo in Halloween Ends.

I mean they clearly are fans, they tried to get Paul Rudd for Kills and I think they're reaching out to Danielle Harris for Ends. Fans should get it trending.

I have a 7lb package pending pickup by UPS from CLARK & RIGGS PRINTING in KY. Do you guys think that is my 1-5 and posters?
