Watching HANGER 18 (1980) on youtube over and over most nights and it has (que dots) and if my hunch is correct maybe the Laserdisc pressing has it, if someone has this, pressing to visual confirm?

Man, almost every HK release of a US film has these cue marks. Especially titles released by the likes of Ocean Shores and Mei-Ah.

Some are even anamorphic having come from anamorphic prints!


By that do you mean they could be 'un-squeezed' the same way as Squeeze LDs are?

Do you have any idea which discs are anamorphic?

I saw Go west (ML102561) some days ago and it was from a print with cue marks, a very good print indeed.

(clicking my thumb) Yes, has anyone tried the original "KING KONG" (1933) as it might be on those Laserdisc various editions.

i know that the criterion release was done with 35 and 16mm to make the entire film.
the later image release with king kong son of kong was 35mm print but i don't have that one anymore so i can't check
the criterion i haven't watched yet :oops: so i'll have to check once i do a review of that one.

It shouldn't take no more than 20 mins to whiz though the Laserdisc (looking for them) unless you want to watch it at steady normal pace. :)

it's not the 20 min, it's the time to make to watch that 20 min.

Oh, well then maybe this will make it faster then to confirm. :mrgreen:

I looked at my copy on region 2 DVD. Just a few sample pictures of the first 40 mins I know the time says what it is on the DVD but plus + 5mins if it was region 1 or NTSC Laserdisc.

Maybe the thread should be titled with DVD if you can find them? :mrgreen:

Projected 35mm film reels usually ran about 15 minutes give or take a minute before doing a film change over. Most projectionsts built several of these reels onto one big reel so they only had to do one projector change. But unfortunately as i really wanted to become a movie projectionst they came up with a platter system that only required you start the fim as it was on a continuous loop. I guess now they are getting so they use a dvd or somehow call in a movie code doing away with film prints all together. WHAT A Shame. The 1929 theatre in town which has projectors now sets up a dvd player & shows it on the screen i call that cheating.


tell me about it, when i see old movies playing at the show, they used a dvd!
example: teenage mutant ninja turtles--subtitles on screen, stretched.

Pink Panther, seems to be anamorphic 35mm instead of a Technirama print: Pink Panther, The (1963) [ML102108]
A Shot in the Dark: Shot in the Dark, A: Pink Panther (1964) [ML102110]

Criterion 2001 was made directly from a 35mm IP and with the 70mm six track mix directly copied through ProLogic: 2001: A Space Odyssey: Special Edition #60 (1968) (Uncut) [CC1160L]

I noticed that Warlock (1989)on youtube has reel change over dots. I'm guessing the Vidmark Entertainment, USA P/S laserdisc will have them as well.

I spotted reel change marks in the first disc of Ghostbusters/Ghostbusters 2 (1989) [LD 13119] the other day.
