Re: Goodbye vinyl, hello compact discs ...

Thanks JB much appreciated. It was a long time ago now. But if your lucky enough then you live and learn. I've got a great family and top friends (including this place) so I consider myself very lucky indeed I'm so glad. It breaks my heart that you went through such a dark time. Thanks JB. Your kin...

PH would have been 62 according to the birthday thingy at the bottom of the page. Gone but never forgotten. It'll be ten years this year, I believe.
I can't believe it's ten years either. Time is accelerating.
RIP Rob, Barny and Nikola, all active posters here and missed enormously.

Re: Flash Bastards 45th Year Anniversary Remaster

Bravo! and thanks to all concerned. Looks and sounds fab.
And I for one love that, er, 'semi-stencilled rubbery sausage' typeface, I don't remember seeing it anywhere else but the 'Rude Boy' credits and promo artwork - and it's perfect for the graphics here.

Re: Rude Boy - 2022 4K restoration

Well, the 'raw film' (trailer) version wins hands down - pin sharp resolution, brightest image, maximum (uncropped) visual content

Thanks, but sorry I specifically need a vhs copy screenshot
Are you doing some sort of comparison for the screen size/ format? I know sometimes films get remastered/ reissued with different crop formats (missing bits at the top, or the sides, on different versions)
I'm just curious.

Re: Rude Boy - 2022 4K restoration

Is this version better than the Blu ray release that came out? The one I have is miles ahead of the dvd/vhs versions I've got I'm just baffled as to what else could be done? This is what I have https://www.hit.co.uk/buy/product/rude-boy-blu-ray/dgc-fheb3182.htm All I can say is, the Mubi streaming ...

Rude Boy - 2022 4K restoration

Keen readers may remember the discussion about the Rude Boy movie getting a hi-res restoration a while back, which was given a few limited cinema screenings then made available to stream, but only in the US https://clashcity.com/boards/viewtopic.php?p=655393#p655393 Well, I may have found a place to...
