Author Topic: Kit Parker Films Looses All 70mm Prints Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 04-17-2000 04:53 AM                     Ari, give me a 70 mag print and I'll be a happy camper. Give me a 70 mag print some bozo has run with his magnetized heads and I'll be screaming for a DTS print. Let's face it, 70 mag is DEAD. With the substantial cost savings of 70 DTS, it will be the only 70mm 5 perf format we will ever see again on a new release. Personally, I'm quite fond of it and wish more studios would release in that format.  |  IP: Logged Ari Nordström Master Film Handler Posts: 283 From: Göteborg, Sweden Registered: Jan 2000 posted 04-17-2000 05:36 AM                     I know, I know. That's what our tech always says to me. I'm trying to face the facts, I really am. 70mm mag is dead, 70mm mag is dead, 70mm mag is dead, 70mm- WAAAAAAHHHHH!!! You know, they never even considered installing DTS 70 anywhere near this town. The comments we got were the same as when we were begging for 70mm mag prints: nobody will notice the difference anyway, so why bother? Sigh.  |  IP: Logged
