Wojo 2,453 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Yes. For this second challenge, the Word of God, Indy deduces that he must spell the name of God in order to proceed. However, when he steps down on the stone marked with a letter 'J', for Jehovah, the rock collapses beneath him and he nearly falls into an enormous chasm below. Initially, the scene was filmed with Harrison Ford stepping on the wrong stone and being attacked by a big spider but the result wasn't satisfactory enough and they came up with the a chasm underneath. http://www.indianajones.de/indy3/texte/making_05.php# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TownerFan 4,983 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I'm quite surprised no one is already taking potshots at the new audio mix news (supervised by JWFan archnemesis Ben Burtt nonetheless), especiallty considering how many people always went bananas toward these kind of things in the past.

paleo 63 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 I didn't know; but was that Ben Burtt's mix? I think it's not so much Apples and Oranges, actually. Well, I guess we will find out. Maybe Spielberg really prefers to have both on the Blu Ray. In any case, too bad that the other movies apparently don't get that much love; I'd say Temple of Doom and Last Crusade would have benefitted from a 4K restoration as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Well, we know that new HD versions of the sequels were created which have been broadcast on television. So those should at least be a serious improvement over the DVD versions. What I'm getting at is I'm thinking it won't be a case like the Star Wars Trilogy. You know, sourced from outdated early 2000s DVD master. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Holdo 16 Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 It'll probably be like the Alien set - the first two got full-on restorations, the latter two used the masters struck for the Anthology DVD. So Temple/Crusade will look pretty good, but not as good as Raiders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TownerFan 4,983 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 What's the difference with 4K?Why does it matter for Blu Ray that can only play 1080p4K is a resolution much more akin to the original film texture. There's much less information loss and it preserves the film nuances more clearly and vividly.It must be said that full 4K (or 8K) restorations are very expensive. Studios of course aren't restoring and updating every single title of their library at the maximum resolution possible. They're choosing the most important and beloved ones. I guess Lucasfilm and Paramount probably started with the oldest (and historically more important) film of the bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crumbs 14,317 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 All 3 trilogy films were restored, relax. It was done back in 2008. Paramount were aiming to release the films on Bluray back in time for KOTCS, but Spielberg wasn't happy with the existing Lowry HD masters (these were used for the DVDs back in 2003). There's been screenshots of the new masters floating around for a few years (captured off HDTV broadcasts) and they look STUNNING. You couldn't get a single pixel more information off that celluloid. Shows how far film scanning and restoration has improved in the 6 years since Lowry remastered the trilogy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TownerFan 4,983 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Yes, from what I gather new HD transfers were made of all three original films a few years ago. However, the 4K restoration of Raiders was done last year (off of the original 35mm negative) and has been publicly shown a few times (one time last year in LA with Spielberg attending).

Quintus 5,399 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I am more than happy that Raiders is the film that got the special treatment. That's the one that matters most to me. And besides, the other two will still look pretty damn good nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
