Ayakawa Film God Posts: 2738 From: Waipahu, Hawaii, USA Registered: Aug 2002 posted 04-28-2004 08:15 PM                        Why is reel four short and the remaining four reels longer? What exactly is the point when most theatres will splice all seven reels of film together on a platter ? -Claude  |  IP: Logged Peter Kerchinsky Master Film Handler Posts: 326 From: Seattle, WA, USA Registered: Jan 2002 posted 04-29-2004 03:40 AM                     Claude I've been asking the same question for years now. I think the next person to ask is the film editor? I assume they are the ones that determine when reels should end and how long those reels can be. Maybe someone forgot to tell those editors a majority of film these days run on platters, you know those tables that go round and round and not reels with COs.  |  IP: Logged Darryl Spicer Film God Posts: 3250 From: Lexington, KY, USA Registered: Dec 2000 posted 04-29-2004 11:25 AM                    Here is a link to the very subject that has been discused before. Who decides where to make reel breaks.  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 05-04-2004 11:58 AM                    Trailers -------- Attached: None Loose: The Chronicles of Riddick (treat as though attached) The Bourne Supremacy Spiderman 2 Catwoman Day After Tomorrow The Village Shrek 2 Seed of Chucky Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle Hero  |  IP: Logged
