Trent B 337 Posted April 17, 2008 Author Share Posted April 17, 2008 I haven't boughten anything since The Mask in fact I think I've pretty much stopped buying regular DVD's and will be switching over to Blu-Ray next year. I'm waiting for the players to come down in price though before I switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trent B 337 Posted January 4, 2009 Author Share Posted January 4, 2009 This is probably the last of the DVD I will ever buy. Anyways I got Lost In Space (the 90's one) and Short Circuit (Special Edition). For Lost In Space I plan to rip what ever remaining music there is and do a complete intended version. For Short Circuit I'll be ripping the isolated score then combine that with the oST material that was released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A24 4,338 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 That's pretty mind-blowing. Maybe a good restoration and preservation, and the 70mm format have something to do with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,198 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 According to DVDBeaver, Clockwork looks clearly better than the DVD, but shows less improvement than most other Kubrick titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A24 4,338 Posted January 7, 2011 Share Posted January 7, 2011 In this case, it's nothing to write home about though. Like I said, a typical HD upgrade but not mind-blowing. The difference might be more important if you have a projector or a projection TV. Personally, I was hoping for something better. Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
