PenguinKnight posted:I’ll have to get a copy of the dvd then because Dickie Moe is definitely in the top for me! Here's some caps from the DVD. It has an interview with Deitch and another with historian Jerry Beck, I think. Only $9 on Amazon right now.

Neon Noodle posted:SEE, DISNEY????????? It’s not so fuckin hard to NOT ruin your film restoration Disney might be going away from the overdone look. Disney+ has The Sword in the Stone in 4K Dolby Vision and it looks spectacular. Actually has film grain and the color pops like 60s Technicolor. Looks exactly like the sort of remastering Warner has been doing for Blu-ray.

FilthyImp posted:It's very weird how they deal with their properties. Simpsons definitely looks like it was run through an SNES upscaler. Just tons of ruined and smeary fields of color. That was done by Fox prior to the Disney sale. I think some of the early seasons were remastered by Reliance Mediaworks, while the rest of the pre-HD seasons were not.

FilthyImp posted:Of course it makes sense that the seasons anyone is interested in look like blah Reliance Mediaworks generally does great work, but they're at the mercy of whatever the studio wants them to do. For example, the first five Disney features look great (they even re-did Pinocchio prior to Blu-ray since the UK DVD that used their first remaster was universally chided), but went a bit too far on Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty. They absolutely did not handle the final masters for The Sword in the Stone and Mickey's Christmas Carol for the Blu-rays. I don't think anyone figured out what happened, but at some point a filter was applied to the entirety of the film. In fact, you can catch a glimpse of the unfiltered transfer of MCC in the menu screens and it looks gorgeous. It's still astonishing that they never offered replacements for those discs since they're easily the worst-ever major studio releases I've seen.

I like the new Looney Tunes that I've seen so far (first 4-5 episodes). Great animation, found myself laughing a lot. Best thing is the return of woohoo Daffy (and possibly coded as queer? Anyone else getting that?)
