This has to be the darkest TT Fox transfer yet-- Jesus!

[Drucker]

Yes it really looks terrible. Two different generations of Fox fucking up color on a film baked into one transfer!

Beat the Devil - DVD Beaver on Film Detective vs. TT

This has to be the darkest TT Fox transfer yet-- Jesus!

Ahh, I meant to post this. I have the old German Blu-ray and thought Tooze was overselling this new one. It is extremely dark and quite red.

holy hell, that's a disaster.

They really abused the contrast setting to a rather insane degree.

[Boosmahn]

It is significantly darker and shows more information in the frame - this is a huge improvement.

What?

[domino harvey]

There are lunatics defending it at the usual forums for such people too. The German Blu-ray ain't great (nor was the Fox DVD), but at least I can see patterns in the clothing in my hi-def image

[nitin]

Fox restorations are all over the place colour wise since they trashed so many of their original elements.

[tenia]

I believe that even with references, the people who thought this look is OK would have ended up doing exactly the same thing.

[EddieLarkin]

For what it's worth, RAH thinks this is one of the better Fox restoration efforts of a 3 strip film and specifically says that the Beaver caps are inaccurate, noting that the disc is not as dark as they would suggest.

[tenia]

It might not be as dark, but it won't be vastly different either. From what I gathered so far from Beaver, the caps might be off by maybe 2 or 3 RGB values (say 10 10 10 instead of 12 12 12), which won't make a (literal) night and day difference.
Not that RAH would know anything about this though, as he repeatedly seemed clueless while facing purely digital aspects of a release.

I surely can't be the only one who thought that the popsicle was something else at first?

AKA a preview of Indicator's 2019 lineup

[What A Disgrace]

Maybe Indicator has the UK rights to Rock Hunter as well, since its out of print from MoC.

Both the above posts are somewhat at variance with reality.
