I believe it was 5 reels pretty much full. scope dolby A a note, the dialogue was recorded low to force you to play the sound high. Of course by all means crank it up.  |  IP: Logged Aaron Sisemore Flaming Ribs beat Reeses Peanut Butter Cups any day!

There are 35mm LPP Dolby A prints out there too.  |  IP: Logged Thomas Procyk Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1842 From: Royal Palm Beach, FL, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 12-18-2003 01:10 PM                     Bumping this up to the top because after much delay, we're FINALLY going to run this thing... ...Does anyone have any Rep. info on this title, specific print numbers they know are good, or information on how to specifically request LPP, Stereo A prints when booking (if possible) If this is violating the rules of the feature info thread, just delete this post and spank me with a raw fish. =TMP=  |  IP: Logged System Notices Forum Watchdog / Soup Nazi Posts: 215 Registered: Apr 2004 posted 12-03-2010 02:32 PM                 It has been 2542 days since the last post.  |  IP: Logged Victor Liorentas Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 800 From: london ontario canada Registered: May 2009 posted 12-03-2010 02:32 PM                     Have newer prints ever been struck with Dolby Digital?  |  IP: Logged System Notices Forum Watchdog / Soup Nazi Posts: 215 Registered: Apr 2004 posted 04-18-2014 04:15 PM                 It has been 1232 days since the last post.  |  IP: Logged Jack Theakston Master Film Handler Posts: 411 From: New York, USA Registered: Sep 2007 posted 04-18-2014 04:15 PM                     Anyone run this lately? Any info on WB's print?  |  IP: Logged Jock Blakley Expert Film Handler Posts: 218 From: Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Registered: Oct 2011 posted 06-22-2014 07:03 AM                     I have handled a 35mm print of it with mono sound. The 70mm print we run regularly is built up to 4 reels, on standard Eastmancolor stock (date-coded 1981) with six-track mag in Format 42. Stunning sound. It's faded oddly too, some sections are quite pink but there's still a fair amount of blue left in most of it too. I have also heard it suggested that some 35mm four-track mag prints were struck, but that's purely hearsay.  |  IP: Logged Jack Theakston Master Film Handler Posts: 411 From: New York, USA Registered: Sep 2007 posted 06-22-2014 07:59 PM                     Just ran WB Print #97001. Still Dolby-A, LPP. Generally very good condition, could use a cleaning. Has obviously been plattered at some previous time.  |  IP: Logged
