Max the Movie Guy added 1 item to Films I've seen on celluloid in the digital era list

FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★½ NOTES: I’ve wanted to see this at the cinema for almost a whole decade. Last screened at the Barbican on what could have been Tezuka’s birthday in 2008, and screened again as part of Barbican’s Anime’s Human Machines season with the Life Rewired short Divided We Scroll and an intro review. The changeovers are inconvenient and only the scene where Pero confronts Atlas is anywhere close to ruined, but the rest of the print is as great as it could be. Also includes the TriStar logo, which in home media is replaced with Destination and a bunch of Japanese home video logos. DATE: September 29th 2019 CINEMA: Barbican Centre LOCATION: Barbican

Max the Movie Guy added 1 item to Films I've seen on celluloid in the digital era list

FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★ NOTES: There is little wrong with the projection up until the fifth reel besides muted colour, but still a lot of issues with this print. The singing in three of the musical numbers including the weasels’ was half as loud as the music and some frames were misplaced/sliced. The changeover to the third reel slightly distorted John Cleese’s speech with cuts and stutters. The fourth reel got off to a disastrous start, as the border was off position, leaving a thick black line down the middle of the screen. This only lasted one shot, and when the projectionist saw this they took the border off, so for a few minutes the film was projected from its top two thirds and the rest was on the floor. This was fixed in time for the train chase to commence when the projectionist put the border into its correct position and angled the print where it should be. However, the scene in which Rat and Mole are booted out was shaky, and the problem returned when the Nazi weasels were first seen getting wasted in Toad Hall right up to the very start of the credits.

FORMAT: 35mm CONDITION: ★★★★ NOTES: Took this print about ten-ish minutes to get good regardless of the changeovers. Several frames were sliced, but nothing that would taint the soundtrack. Changeovers were messy, and the print got really scratchy as it reached the end of the credits, but those did not matter either.
