Two or three?  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 11-30-2003 10:58 AM                    Didn't get any.

My print had 4 Also some reels were heads up while others were tails up and there was a note in the can saying to please be careful because some prints had been assembled with reels upside down. Maybe if they would ship all the reels the same way then this wouldn't be a problem although it should be checked for by the projectionist.  |  IP: Logged Aaron Garman Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1470 From: Toledo, OH USA Registered: Mar 2003 posted 12-16-2003 04:00 AM                     2 DTS discs. THX snipes were not labeled to be on the discs. Beware, credits are not black at all. Background is some art from the world of Middle Earth. There are also pictures of the characters as the name of the actor is shown. I didn't put a lights up cue until after the last one, Sean Bean. Enjoy!

Disc A = 652MB Disc B = 656MB This means for the first time ever, dts used extended length discs. With this in mind, there is plenty of extra room they could have put to good use.  |  IP: Logged Lee Davies Film Handler Posts: 28 From: Bolton, England Registered: Jul 2000 posted 12-16-2003 06:25 PM                     Michael, Its SDDS-6 from what I could see in the text before the track is printed.  |  IP: Logged Jacob Huber Expert Film Handler Posts: 172 From: Evansville, IN, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 12-17-2003 08:18 AM                     Enclosed: I, Robot Riddick Mask 2 Spider-Man 2 The Punisher Harry Potter 3 Walking Tall Hidalgo Attached: Butterfly Effect  |  IP: Logged Chris Markiewicz Expert Film Handler Posts: 209 From: Glenaviegh, County Tipperary, Ireland Registered: Aug 2002 posted 12-18-2003 03:43 PM                     Only one lab splice on our print, in reel 2. Discs marked DTS-ES. All reels except one arrived heads out. Very clean print.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 12-18-2003 06:26 PM                     Please do not post specifics about your personal print. This benefits no one. Read this.  |  IP: Logged Mark J.
