Registered: Dec 1999 posted 07-09-2009 10:01 PM                     No shots of the damaged-and-not-able-to-be-screened print? Hmmm... Good looking screws though.  |  IP: Logged Randy Stankey Film God Posts: 6539 From: Erie, Pennsylvania Registered: Jun 99 posted 07-09-2009 10:21 PM                     Those are some fairly distinctive screws. Some kind of keyway screw or something? No? You'd think it would be easy to track down the source of such an odd screw.  |  IP: Logged Jeremy Weigel Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1062 From: Edmond, OK, USA Registered: Mar 2007 posted 07-09-2009 11:00 PM                     quote: Peter Schoell Some of you are correct, the screws did puncture the film, also my manager. quote: John Wilson I still don't see how this makes the print unplayable. Even if there was some damage to the edges it couldn't be that bad as to not make it to the screen. It may not have exactly been "unplayable" with holes in the film, but it would have looked bad on on screen and looked even worse if they had cut out the damaged parts. I personally wouldn't have run it either in this condition.  |  IP: Logged Jake Spell Master Film Handler Posts: 294 From: Johns Island SC Registered: May 2009 posted 07-09-2009 11:04 PM                     those screws look like the ones used in assembling funiture(particle board desks) and how does anyone know that TES didn't lie about the screws. They just don't want to admit it.  |  IP: Logged Chris Slycord Film God Posts: 2986 From: 청주시, 경북도, South Korea Registered: Mar 2007 posted 07-10-2009 11:04 AM                     quote: Jake Spell how does anyone know that TES didn't lie about the screws. They just don't want to admit it. And how does anyone know they're lying? You can't just say a straight up "They don't want to admit it" while at the same time saying "I'm not sure if they're lying."  |  IP: Logged Jake Spell Master Film Handler Posts: 294 From: Johns Island SC Registered: May 2009 posted 07-10-2009 07:44 PM                     There should had been a maybe nefor that.
