I have one, but I have to get the adapter for it to fit my Elmo. So I must decline [Big Grin] And I get it; we both know that you cannot attach a Scope Lens to a SC-18 [Wink]

Looks a very nice print Laksmi , what is the running time & does it work as a digest?

Any drop out noticeable in the soundtrack and is there any evidence on screen of the edits?

Thanks
Colin

Yes it is a very nice print it is a fantastic print , the running time is 32 minutes with 2 X 600 with one the first reel up to 400 and the other 600 full filled to the capacity. And it works as having the full movie. I saw the movie over 10 times and it has all the best parts keeping the story for those who never saw it. What a great digest best I have ever seen. No
drop out noticeable in the soundtrack and no evidence on screen of the edits. It is very smooth and has a nice flow. Its perfecto! So don't wait buy it now ! Nuff Said!

Nice screenshots!

Only 32 mins with almost 1000 feet? That must be some heavy stock!

Great to see how commendable this release is in every respect - I wasn't sure at first if it would be my cup of tea but the screenshots showing such a selection of spectacular scenes are helping to 'sell' it to me!

These German prints do seem to occupy significantly more space on spools than average acetate prints. It could be partly due to the good quality and relatively thick striping.

It does look a nice print Adrian going by Laksmi's great pictures.
As for the thick stock, I think our Laksmi will soon wear it down to polyestar thickness by the amount of times he's watching it.
It seems a very good release. Well done Mr Osbourne.

Thanks everyone for your comments. Hugh at least I will save money from going to the cinema to watch it. I saw it many times when it first came out. I have it on Blu-ray and have not watched it . Any way the film stock is strong and no scratches I can see yet wow! Hey Lee that Chinon projector High Def Cinemascope lens looks great my Elmo is blushing [Confused]  -

Yes..the stripe on my print is nice and thick...so the film doesn't wind as compactly as other prints. Very good stereo sound ....and the sound stripe also protects against scratching and cinch marks.

I will most definately have to consider it if I get the funds available. Is anyone bringing a print to the BFCC so those of us across the pond can have a look? [Big Grin]

Thank you Steve! Awesome print and a great editing job.
Sound is very good, picture is super sharp, and the colors are fantastic.
Now if we only had cover art and a clamshell...!
Seriously though this is a great print and it really is exciting to have a newer film come out. And the editing job was very well done. If you didn't see the film you could see this and still understand what was happening. Hayley Atwell looks great on Super 8 I might add. [Smile]
Get this print!

I think Lee's pic may have boosted the orders by another 10! This thread is serving as great marketing - it has convinced me to buy one even though I've never seen the feature - and as far as I know, this release has not been reviewd on any other film collecting forums.

$229. But I just got his latest film list and he said that Polyester film stock version was coming out soon and it would be a little more $.

Im going to have to buy this!, Im coming to the USA next month for a holiday so I will look into buying it while im there.
Has someone thought about making some box artwork for it?, would be cool to have a nice picture/lable than can be stuck onto some white 600ft card boxes.

Oh and Hayley is my future wife! [Big Grin]

Zechariah - it's good to hear that the polyester stock is returning, which should have the edge in terms of colour. But does the list indicate whether polyester prints will be stereo, as I believe the last time the lab were printing on polyester, the prints only had the main stripe. Perhaps that has changed, though.

I just recieved Steve Osbournes new lists and in there he states that the new "Captian America" prints that be struck will be on polyester stock, which is thinner, (which might mean that it just might fit on one reel!), and having dealt with the german film lab and having struck our own "Saturday Morning Madness" print on both they're polyester and Acetate film stocks, the polyester (which I believe is the brand new "Kodak Vision" super 8 film stock), is definitely FAR superior in color saturation and color correctness, as well as less grain!

I am actuallt thinking about getting polyester print of this! I HATE that yellowish acetate stock, but the Kodak Vision stock is a very superior super 8 stock!

Patrick, I can make up some box art if you give me the dimensions.

Wanna pick up a Empire Strikes Back for me while you are there ;^)

Now it would be lovely if I could get *that* on poly...
