The "THE END" card doesn't fade out properly. It just stops. All the older prints (including the widescreen print that Turner Classic Movies aired and the fullscreen print Encore Westerns airs) had "THE END" fade out properly.<br /><br />A minor nitpick, but probably one all the noticeable to we fans.321LetsJamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18094684498683065911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1388554970113771183.post-90949013817943473832012-05-30T17:02:46.115-07:002012-05-30T17:02:46.115-07:00I'll admit I noticed the black levels too betw...I'll admit I noticed the black levels too between the two. That being said when actually watching the DVDs, the UK disc looked a lot worse due to compression, while the WE disc was smooth. They are both great discs compared to the pan scan crap.aaron@theBad.nethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07610876186258437366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1388554970113771183.post-55856950868136651222012-05-30T16:33:49.304-07:002012-05-30T16:33:49.304-07:00Thanx, Aaron, for this Side-by-Side on DRaH!
Mayb...Thanx, Aaron, for this Side-by-Side on DRaH!<br /><br />Maybe it's my monitor or something, but to *my* eye, the UK version actually looks superior to the Wild East print...and I say that reluctantly, as I'm a *big* fan of WE!<br /><br />The main thing I'm seeing is that the UK'05 disc isn't near as Dark as WE's, revealing considerably more Detail: look especially at the Shades of Grey visible on the other gent's hat, and how clear LVC's forehead and eyes are under his own hat's brim.<br /><br />But I've been bitchin' an' moanin' about the Too-Too-Black aspect of digital film/TV prints ever since they began to appear --- first spotted this in Noir transfers (starting with OUT OF THE PAST, iirc).<br /><br />Anyway, it doesn't bother lots of folx I've talked to about it...it's just one of my own Pet Peeves. ;)<br /><br />Thanks again, Aaron. Keep up the great work!<br /><br />Ciao for niao,<br />DCG.DCGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01211232427681527782noreply@blogger.com
