Here's a fun fact - this the #1 film I am searching for on 35mm. Until then, this teaser will have to do.

As you can plainly see, emulsion lines plague the tail end of this print. But, if I’m being completely honest, they’re outshined by the stunning crispness and vitality of the print itself, holding up remarkably well from ‘96.
The film is not rated, hence the absence of an MPAA rating tag, but I was personally hoping to see the Universal Studios Hollywood tag, which sadly either 1) was not on the print or 2) was but the projectionist cut the bulb before we could see it.
Filmed at the Gateway Film Center in Columbus, Ohio on 10/15/2022.

Went digging through my rusty old Dell Inspiron and found this little gem of a thing. Holy HELL do I miss the Maxi-Saver 12. I mean, the Century Square Luxury Cinemas that now occupies the old space is cool and all, but its got nothing on this place. Im serious. Its stuff like this that makes me wish time travel to the past was possible.
The equipment utilized was all 35MM (as is probably obvious by the ridiculous amount of scratches on the ident) and its preceded by a 35MM trailer for Here Comes the Boom, and followed by a 35MM trailer for Despicable Me 2. The movie we were seeing was ParaNorman.
Treasure the present moment now, folks. You never know what youll miss the second its wiped away...")

This took way longer than it should have, but I hope it satisfies.
Obviously, with this being a UK-struck print, there is no MPAA rating tag at the tail; instead, right after the DreamWorks Animation logo, the tail leader is simply displayed.
And that cue mark video will be out before Friday. I have been caught up with so much recently, but I finally have time to plunge back into my usual YouTube shenanigans. :)
Any questions about the print, just ask away. (Save for inquiries about buying the print... because that shits not gonna happen.)

(This video ended up having a pretty jarring flicker effect. My apologies. Hopefully it still comes through pretty clear for you folks.)
So here it is, gang, the ending of the limited 70mm release print of Todd Phillips masterful Joker! Exceptional film, and kudos to the absolutely amazing Gateway Film Center in Columbus for having the chops to screen it in such a format.
Unlike the 70mm releases of Dunkirk and Ready Player One, this print actually has an MPAA rating tag. Funnily enough, it seems Warner has used the same rating tag style utilized for the 35mm release of Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, where the R rating appears nice and big without the rating reason specified. Im guessing this is some sort of a trend for the major Hollywood studios...? No tail leader shown onscreen, too, which is to be expected, especially for a 70mm showing.
So, heres a little something interesting... I got to the theater early, because its a Saturday night and you know how busy the multiplex can get on a night like that. I talk to someone who I assume is one of the managers of the place... super nice dude and knowledgeable about cinema. He knows Im here from Pittsburgh to see this 70mm screening of the film so gives me an offer to check out the projector booth briefly... which may or may not have made me incredibly giddy. The 70mm projector system was quite tremendous and a beaut of a thing. 3-tier platter system and Simplex projector. For what its worth the theater also has two 35mm projectors (one in auditorium 2, another in auditorium 4). The booth was a little narrow but one hell of a magical place and Im one lucky man to see the physical 70mm print of Joker in all of its glory. Unfortunately I was unable to get any pictures but if anyone has any questions about the booth/print I can attempt to answer them to the best of my ability!
Enjoy, everyone! And as always, I am in no way intending to infringe upon copyright. This is the sole property of Warner Bros. Pictures, thick and thin, and Im simply uploading this for those who arent fortunate enough to experience Joker in a film format. I own nothing!")

With a pitch-correction to boot!
Search bait: Tail of reel 7 of Star Trek (2009)
You may notice the room looks slightly different. That’s because we moved my projector up to a new room we just emptied. I managed to hook up my surround sound system to the projector’s amplifier (mind you, it’s still mono output, but it sounds cleaner than before) and give it a big beautiful image.

For Christmas, I got a StarTech HD Capture Device that captures HDMI-enabled devices at resolutions up to 1080p. The thing works like a charm. If I have any complaint, its that I wish HDCP protection bypass was included built-in into the device. I had to fix it up the hard way by buying an HDMI splitter on Amazon.com which supposedly bypass the whole HDCP nonsense. Now that Im able to capture HDMI devices problem-free, the chance of videos being uploaded on this account are increased!
To test out how well YouTubes compression algorithms handle my HDMI captures, I figured why not snap a DVD walk-through of my favorite Christmas movie; The Polar Express. Mind you, Im able to capture Blu-ray discs on this thing without issue, but the Blu-ray menu for The Polar Express lacks music and is only a simple list of a menu, making it very lackluster. Ill eventually upload some Blu-ray menu walkthroughs of other films though for your viewing pleasure.
This is really nothing more than simple filler for my account, but I hope you enjoy nevertheless!")
