Is there any information (like Auto-EX or DTS-ES print on the DTS-CDs) about that?  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 10-25-2004 09:30 AM                    I don't have disks with this print. I didn't see anything on the leaders but the Dolby credit does say Surround EX.  |  IP: Logged Eric Hooper Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 532 From: Fort Worth, TX, USA Registered: May 2003 posted 10-25-2004 04:55 PM                     Total run time?  |  IP: Logged Steve Scott Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1300 From: Minneapolis, MN Registered: Sep 2000 posted 10-25-2004 05:45 PM                     Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith is scheduled to be enclosed with this feature. Other contract enclosures: National Treasure/Chicken Little Combo trl. Pooh's Heffalump Movie. Buena Vista states that contract theaters must play one of the two enclosed BV trailers. If you are planning on receiving National Treasure, they reccomend that you play the combo, otherwise program the other trailer.

First block of end credits are enjoyably animated. Expect many people to stay for for this part.  |  IP: Logged Scott Brewer Film Handler Posts: 7 From: Alameda, CA Registered: Feb 2000 posted 10-26-2004 05:20 PM                     Yes, it is EX. Trust me  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 11-03-2004 07:12 PM                     Yes it is EX. Yes it has a short "Boundin" attached to reel 1 (that is to be considered part of the feature). Yes the attached trailer is "Cars". NO there is no Star Wars trailer accompanying the print. Loose trailers are: Sand Dog Madagascar Son of the Mask Chicken Little/National Treasure combo Christmas with the Kranks Also enclosed are the "Incredibles projectionist information cheezy trading cards". quote: from card #2 "the attachments and feature will differ in format, but the one you need to set is Scope, 2.39:1. Anything else and the audience will lose image left and right which is critical to the proper presentation of the feature itself." - Brad Bird, writer and director. Hey Mr.Bird...if the projectionists run the film in flat, 1.85:1 , you WILL see all of the image on the sides. It's the image at the top and bottom that will be cropped off. Geez, does noone proof these things? Oh yeah, and if you think I'm gonna lower my light levels down to 16fl, you're nuts! The cards also mention a website "dedicated to you". It's http://projection.pixar.com with username filmhero and password scope  |  IP: Logged Cory Isemann Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 500 From: White Plains, MD, USA Registered: Jun 2004 posted 11-04-2004 09:01 AM                        "Sand Dog" = new Star Wars trailer  |  IP: Logged Steve Scott Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1300 From: Minneapolis, MN Registered: Sep 2000 posted 11-04-2004 05:42 PM                     Cue dots are, indeed, the incredibles logo. Oh wow... the coolness...  |  IP: Logged Mike Blakesley Film God Posts: 12767 From: Forsyth, Montana Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-04-2004 06:47 PM                        Updated running time (according to one of those cards:) 121 minutes. FWIW, the trailer "CARS" is also supposed to be considered part of the feature. (No cutting of the print.) Just checked ebay...surprised none of those cards have turned up there yet.  |  IP: Logged Steve Kraus Film God Posts: 4094 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 11-04-2004 08:06 PM                    That running time presumably includes the Cars trailer. It's the image at the top and bottom that will be cropped off. Geez, does noone proof these things? Given the wording it sounds like he was talking about side masking. Since our orders are not to run trailers we opened on Boundin' with side masking at 1.85 and opened it on the fade to black to reveal the Disney logo in full 2.39. It looked great.  |  IP: Logged Dean Kollet Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 591 From: Florida State University Registered: Jul 2003 posted 11-05-2004 12:47 AM                     yeah, Sand Dog = Episode III I'll have to say that I like the little trading cards and the sweepstakes advertisement on the back. It's something little and cheesy, but I was impressed... edit: Also, the DTS Trailer disks list the Trailer as "Sand Dog: Nostalgia"  |  IP: Logged
