Should be Surround EX and DTS-ES encoded as well according to dolby.com and dtsonline.com. Is there any information (like Auto-EX or DTS-ES print on the DTS-CDs) about that?

Posted by Steve Kraus (Member # 476) on 10-25-2004, 09:30 AM:

I don't have disks with this print. I didn't see anything on the leaders but the Dolby credit does say Surround EX.

Total run time?

Posted by Steve Scott (Member # 630) on 10-25-2004, 05:45 PM:

Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith is scheduled to be enclosed with this feature.

Other contract enclosures: National Treasure/Chicken Little Combo trl.
Pooh's Heffalump Movie.

Buena Vista states that contract theaters must play one of the two enclosed BV trailers. If you are planning on receiving National Treasure, they reccomend that you play the combo, otherwise program the other trailer.

Run time = 115 according to the I.M.E.

Posted by Steve Kraus (Member # 476) on 10-25-2004, 09:06 PM:

Total RT (with short): Approx 119 min.

First block of end credits are enjoyably animated. Expect many people to stay for for this part.

Yes, it is EX.

Trust me

Posted by Brad Miller (Member # 2) on 11-03-2004, 07:12 PM:

Yes it is EX.

Yes it has a short "Boundin" attached to reel 1 (that is to be considered part of the feature).

Yes the attached trailer is "Cars".

NO there is no Star Wars trailer accompanying the print.

Loose trailers are:
Sand Dog
Madagascar
Son of the Mask
Chicken Little/National Treasure combo
Christmas with the Kranks

Also enclosed are the "Incredibles projectionist information cheezy trading cards".

quote: from card #2
"the attachments and feature will differ in format, but the one you need to set is Scope, 2.39:1. Anything else and the audience will lose image left and right which is critical to the proper presentation of the feature itself." - Brad Bird, writer and director.

Hey Mr.Bird...if the projectionists run the film in flat, 1.85:1 , you WILL see all of the image on the sides. It's the image at the top and bottom that will be cropped off. Geez, does noone proof these things? [Razz]

Oh yeah, and if you think I'm gonna lower my light levels down to 16fl, you're nuts! [Cool]

The cards also mention a website "dedicated to you". It's http://projection.pixar.com with username filmhero and password scope

"Sand Dog" = new Star Wars trailer

Posted by Steve Scott (Member # 630) on 11-04-2004, 05:42 PM:

Cue dots are, indeed, the incredibles logo.

Oh wow... the coolness... [Roll Eyes]

Posted by Mike Blakesley (Member # 26) on 11-04-2004, 06:47 PM:

Updated running time (according to one of those cards:) 121 minutes.

FWIW, the trailer "CARS" is also supposed to be considered part of the feature. (No cutting of the print.)

Just checked ebay...surprised none of those cards have turned up there yet.

Posted by Steve Kraus (Member # 476) on 11-04-2004, 08:06 PM:

That running time presumably includes the Cars trailer.

It's the image at the top and bottom that will be cropped off. Geez, does noone proof these things?

Given the wording it sounds like he was talking about side masking. Since our orders are not to run trailers we opened on Boundin' with side masking at 1.85 and opened it on the fade to black to reveal the Disney logo in full 2.39. It looked great.

Posted by Dean Kollet (Member # 1789) on 11-05-2004, 12:47 AM:

yeah, Sand Dog = Episode III
I'll have to say that I like the little trading cards and the sweepstakes advertisement on the back. It's something little and cheesy, but I was impressed...

edit: Also, the DTS Trailer disks list the Trailer as "Sand Dog: Nostalgia"
