crocodile 7,988 Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 The show starts out with the famous Lara Palmer mystery that Lynch originally didnt plan on ever solving. It became such a phenomenon however that what season 2 rolled around the network rather forced him to. Do you know David Lynch never intended this murder plot to be resolved? It was network that forced him to do it.Oh no, Cremers disease is affecting you too!Is Cremeritis curable?Karol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DreamTheater 131 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 When I watched the entire show a couple of months back I didn't really miss the fact that it wasn't HD. The SD quality added to its televised look. But I'm not sure which season they started airing in 16:9 because the DVD's had that aspect ratio and it was a bit of a shame that this netflix stream still used the old 4:3 ratio. Good to see that rectified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,317 Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 They started filming in 16:9 in Season 5, even though it will still airing in 4:3 just about everywhere - they were trying to be future proof.16:9 version on the left, 4:3 version on the righthttps://willmckinley.wordpress.com/2015/03/25/how-the-x-files-revival-impacts-the-original-and-where-to-watch-it/So in other words for the new HD versions of the episodes, for seasons 5-9 you're getting the full frame that they shot, nothing added or lost at all.For Seasons 1 -4, I guess they remove the top and bottom and/or stretch the picture to fill the 16:9 frame for the new versions?http://observationdeck.io9.com/x-files-remastered-in-hd-but-only-for-the-germans-1594416977 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nightscape94 965 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 BTW, your link is about the new season, not an HD remaster of the old episodes - wrong link?Indeed it was! Linky. Right now it's just the first 13 episodes, but this should expand, hopefully very soon.Can 35mm film have 16:9 frames or does it need to be cropped to that aspect ratio?For the first couple of seasons they'll need to crop a bit from the top/bottom and expand the sides. For seasons 3 and 4 I believe they just need to open the sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I meant for seasons 5-9. Sure their broadcast aspect ratio is 16:9, but can 35mm capture a 16:9 frame or would it be like Super 35 where they have to crop the image to look wider?

A24 4,326 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Saw the first two episodes of Netflix's Daredevil. To me it feels a little too much like a CBS show so I won't continue to watch. Fights are good (though ultimately too soft) but the interrogations and the way characters talk to each other bore the devil out of me. I'm sorry ...Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 KK Superhero shows are today's western.In the 50's about 8 out of 10 prime time shows in the US were westerns.
