Author Topic: What is new with the restored "SEVEN SAMURAI" Michael Coate Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1904 From: Los Angeles, California Registered: Feb 2001 posted 03-04-2003 11:34 PM                     quote: I got to see the special FANTASOUND 6 channel mix at the Cinerama Dome in 1990 (70mm SR) and couldn't believe they would suppress this for the home. And recreating that three-front, three-surround "Fantasound" configuration could have so easily been accomplished by using Dolby Digital Surround EX and/or DTS-ES for the DVD.

It may have not have been that restrictive, since the Academy rolloff for optical soundtracks at the time was right around 4 KHz.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.
