2 Questions, is the movie scope 2.35 or flat 1.85 and is it SDDS.

Sorry about that. Movie is scope, and I didn't see anything mentioning SDDS. (1st. post is edited)

You didn't see anything mentioning SDDS? Is this data taken from an actual print in your own hands, or from some kind of depot/studio flyer?

Info sheet came with print. No mention of any sound at all. Checked print and didn't see any indication of SDDS, but I would assume it probably is.

By indication do you mean marking on the headers/ footers or did you actually look along the edges of the film to see if there was SDDS tracks?
Posted by Brad Miller (Member # 2) on 02-21-2002, 05:09 PM:
SDDS is never listed on the leaders. Postings made here should be made only by someone who has physically handled the print and has specifically looked for dts timecode, SRD data blocks in between the perforations and SDDS data along the edges of the film (which should not be confused with non-SDDS prints that colored edges...look for the tiny dots).WB has always placed SDDS on their films for the last 5 years or so. I can't imagine why this one would be any different, unless it was picked up from another studio. Can someone who can physically inspect a print please confirm or deny this?

The picture is indeed in SDDS. All other info in ppost is correct

>>SDDS is never listed on the leaders.<<Why yes it certainly is!
It is right there with all the other formats next to the ColoReel® reel number code on prints from both DeLuxe labs, and in reeeeally tiny print scribbled into the soundtrack next to the word 'Version' on Tech Hollywood prints (usually listed as 'Quad' or 'SDDS-DTS' on a quad format print from Tech Hollywood).

I stand corrected then. Perhaps I'm thinking of Technicolor leaders. Oh well, I still never trust the leaders except for analog track NR encoding purposes (until proven otherwise). It's much easier to look at the actual film for 2 seconds.
