Jay 37,300 Posted August 20, 2022 Share Posted August 20, 2022 Which recording is used in this trailer? It's obviously beefed up with modern trailer-house stuff, like "Monster Rumble Riser No Perc", which you can hear on this page: https://search.upright-music.dk/albums/d0b2f017-c5c3-4236-a3c4-3a509b5718c1/nojs?ahnr=365c0fff-b5bb-41a0-91d4-7004b7091258 Can anybody ID whatever other modern stuff is in the mix here?

I for sure heard The Shark Approaches but for the other bits I don’t think those are from any of the albums. The first bit sounds almost like the Main Titles but I don’t think it is.

Brando 1,856 Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Just got home from Jaws. It was so so so good. Must be the new 4K sound mix, I’ve only seen up to the blu ray release. Plenty of new sfx here and there, and certain scenes were great in the theater because of this. Hopefully they do this with more classic movies🤞 Andy and Corellian2019 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Andy 4,087 Posted September 3, 2022 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 3, 2022 Saw it 3D yesterday and in IMAX today. The 3D conversion is magnificent. All the stuff shot at water level is unbelievable. Quint’s death is terrifying… you feel the struggle more. Quint looking down at Brody and Hooper on the deck from atop the mast is breathtaking. The approach on Alex Kinter and Chrissie also stand out. Just don’t expect Ben Gardner’s head to land in your lap. This is a conversion on par with Jurassic Park, and I really hope it gets a 3D Blu Ray release, but it may be too late for that. It’s unfortunate that they released this conversion at the same time as the IMAX, because most people will choose IMAX rather than see both, and they will have skewed data on interest in 3D since it’s Jaws Vs Jaws. The IMAX presentation has the advantage of technical superiority and screen size of course, so it’s equally wonderful. See both if you can. The sound mix seems to be the best of old and new. I usually choose Mono at home, so maybe it’s the same mix as on the Blu Ray (new gunshots, old whale calls). I will say that E.T. dazzled just a bit more due to the better audio and an aspect ratio which utilizes the IMAX screen better.

Popular Post JohnnyD 1,220 Posted September 4, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted September 4, 2022 I just finished seeing Jaws in IMAX 3D. Holy cow; seeing it remastered in this format was a surreal experience. The picture and sound were phenomenal; the music was loud and clear. Best way to see it since the 4K restoration. I still jumped out of my seat at the specific moments and was on the edge of my seat. This was such a thrill!

Jay 37,300 Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 They had fun art projected onto the screen before the movie, and were also playing Jaws music (the re-recording on shuffle). I failed to snap a pic of it before, but snapped a pic after as it was projected onto the closing curtains Andy and Brando 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy 4,087 Posted September 6, 2022 Author Share Posted September 6, 2022 Well I think after seeing it in 3D, then IMAX, and again in 3D, I can say I’ve done my part. The winner? The 3D actually. It was just really, really special. Not to take away from the IMAX, but why isn’t IMAX the standard instead of typical multiplex theaters? I really hope they release a 3D Blu Ray for me and the other 6 people demanding it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mstrox 6,647 Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 If they’re using a film print, it depends on where they put the cue tape and what they program the projector to do with each cue - are IMAX prints all film? If digital, I suspect the cues are prebaked into the digital file by the distributor, although my time as a projectionist ended before widespread digital. I don’t know if I’ve ever been to a theater in which the lights don’t come on at the start of the credits, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a liability thing. There was no need to put one on Jaws, though, because the credits are short and the image onscreen puts out enough light for people to get up and walk out without falling down the stairs and breaking their necks.
