You are just LUCKING OUT on everything your little heart desires. Before we know it, you'll have your print of "Once Upon a Time in the West!"
I felt really luck (on a much smaller scale) when I got that Marketing Films copy of "Star Wars". There's nothing like getting a print of a thirty year old film, (manufactured thirty years ago), and the color is absolutely pristine!

Osi, yes, I'm really happy and lucky. I'm actually waiting for some news about ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST: I haven't been receiving news since last week. Hope to get soon that print. And yes, after this title I will take a rest eh eh eh. NOBODY BELIEVES IT.
I'm also happy for you print. You are definitely right: no problem when we buy a brand new copy (or almost...). But when we found a old one and still in good condition, God, it's like finding a hidden treasure! Take care my friend.
CIAO.

Jurassic Park was a flat film. You'll find it interesting to watch on Super 8 if you don't crop it with screen masking because the computer effects sequences were done masked. So even if you don't think there's any CGI trickery in a certain scene you can easily identify where there is.
A great print. Hope yours turns out to be as good.
