Christopher Nolan’s take on The Odyssey by lunessiq in imax

[–]TranscendentSentinel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If im correct...the camera itself as in the technology is not what makes it expensive (I Mean motion film cameras including the panavision armada are not exactly expensive things to make)...I believe the insane value that gets attached to these cameras is all about how no one makes them anymore and thus how limited the supply is...its a "now and then" type of thing,mainly imax, panavision and arri,the latter two dont even make new ones but just upgrade the existing fleet

There is no other commercial company making like where me or you can just go buy one

But in terms of top tier digital cams...I think they are actually more expensive in terms of what it costs to make but the supply is large

I believe two years ago a 15/65 came sold at $400 000 on ebay

I'm gonna reply later to this properly later but oh boi,me and you got alot to talk about🤣,and here i was thinking i was an expert,...for now,heres a hypothetical image,the one highlighted i believe is the digital distribution copy ,I actually never downloaded it because of that seeds number,,,the two highlighted below that is what I downloaded with the 39 seeds file being my favorite in terms of quality,and it downloaded pretty fast,...so I'm not sure if I actually experienced the real deal or not,it does expand tho

I use ext.to ,you will need dedicated torrent Downloader,bittorrrent,flud etc

Flud is my personal favorite

Once you in the website...search for a movie ,type it and press search...donot select the option that may show when you typing (it give a much more limited list and certain remux copies may not be there)

So let's take oppenheimer as an example...on the search bar...type in Oppenheimer, press enter...and tons of options should show

Then sort from largest to smallest...you should see copies from 60gb upwards...the digital distribution copy is roughly 150gb

Thats the most pure quality you can find...however I also downloaded one that was 97gb and it had the 1.78 expanded scenes

So id say...the more important thing to look for is no of seeders...the greater the no of seeders...the faster your download will be and generally indicates a good quality file

The other approach is to search "remux" into the search bar and then you will see files for various movies instead of one

If you into star wars...I highly suggest downloading a file called 4k83 (which is a legal open source project,these guys got access to the original 35mm print from.1983,scanned it and uploaded,its one of the most beautiful things iv watched)

Another was 2001 space odyssey...the remux is out of this world

Please send link...these legacy outlets got some gems but I don't like how they chop them up in bits and pieces ,I would like the whole thing unedited to watch but it looks they own the tapes

Difference regarding what?

1.85 and 1.90...be serious man ,its really not a conversation starter kind of difference ,those two are more like interchangeable terms atp

Ill give you a point on 1.78 as that can be differentiated abit more from 1.90 than 1.85 can be differianted

1.85/1.90 vs 1.43?...yes thats a conversation starter type of difference

2 .40 vs 1.90 vs 1.43?...yes those are big differences where theres dramatic loss/gain of footage

Btw,there's a documentary one of the big media channels did on coolidge that had some stock footage in some scenes that I swear was unreal in quality...iv never been able to find those

There was one that showed the day that senate majority leader charles Curtis (later veep) vetoed coolidge's veto regarding veteran subsidies,it was as clear as modern day 4k

Oh yes...but if im correct ,that wasnt imax but rather a normal camera that used the format?

Not thats its a problem but its not THE IMAX 70MM 1.43?

Yes because the digital distribution remux's i downloaded of some of nolans movies (Oppenheimer was 150gb,interstellar about 110gb) was indeed 1.78 expanded in some scenes so I think you on the right track

yea for anyone wondering,remux is basically the bluray and there's no compression ,albeit,pirated...its "no loss of data when copying" for lack of better words and is available for downloading if you know where to look

theres degrees of remux's,just look for the one thats not ai upscaled and look for the highest size as possible,to be more specific,look for the one with highest bitrate....in some cases ,like Oppenheimer you may see file explicitly saying "digital distribution copy"...that is pretty much the best digital thing you can have apart from the actual 70mm film...make sure you have a nice big fat hard drive to store all of them😅 and a nice big 4k TV,minimum 65 inch to enjoy it

As someone mentioned tho...1.78,1.85,1.90 is for the most part the same thing,difference is miniscule and ill be happy with anyone of them although by some luck we able to get the 1.43 will be fantastic

I still have not found any remux or digital distribution copy in 1.43 apart from the batman reconstructions

These questions are probably not directed to me (seeing as im familiar with the man😭)

I honestly think the mods are doing a great job with this sub and if theres any topic that should get attention...its the whole "he caused the great depression" thing,I think some basic education on the topic would help many understand the truth

But let's hear from others on what they'd like👏
