The 'B' disc must stay in the second drive( I figure the second disc still has a bit of information after the intermission). We are not supposed to interupt the intermission at all, so I would call the booker or whoever and see if a 'lets go to the lobby short' is allowed. Obviously if you have one of the earlier struck prints its probably ok since there was not a printed intermission. Curious to know if for those early struck prints they will send a intermission to insert? About 10-15 frames before end of intermission My print did have one clear frameline.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 02-21-2003 03:15 AM                     I can virtually guarantee you two things. #1 No, no, no, you may not insert anything at the intermission. And keep that slide projector off too! #2 WB reprinted all of the reel 8's. The original prints had no fade out or anything where the intermission was inserted. These reels HAD to be reprinted. The fact they were so extremely short for the trade screening prints coupled with the fact that there was probably less than a dozen made pretty much guarantees this is what happened. This is also getting too chatty. Further comments or questions needs to be in a new thread in FHF or Yak.  |  IP: Logged Paul Konen Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 981 From: Frisco, TX.

Relatively wide (Single sprocket) white frame line that marked the start and end of the black out. Probably introduced from the negative ?  |  IP: Logged Aldo Baez Master Film Handler Posts: 266 From: USA Registered: Mar 2001 posted 02-21-2003 11:07 PM                    My print had framelines as well when the intermission hit. I also loved the framelines at the beginning and end of reels so easy. To get back on topic Dreamcatcher is attached and Master and Commander enclosed.  |  IP: Logged
