If anyone needs a set of Titanic DTS disks I have a spare set we kept as emergency. The DTS sound disks came in plastic sleeves and were supposed to travel with the 70mm film trunks. Often they would get crushed inside the trunk or be lost in transit if they traveled separately. Like any CD they can also be scratched and not play.
I’m glad that there’s a movie theater near where I live that has 70mm. The first time I experienced 70mm was for Oppenheimer, and ever since, I fell in love with the format, I’ve even heard great things about it like how stunning it looks
70mm looks amazing when done right. If you get the chance to see "Baraka" in 70, thats the best-looking 70mm print out there, its great, you wont be disappointed. Cheers! Enjoy
Amazing! The cleanest original 70mm DTS print :D I am partial to the outstanding 3D version but would love to see an original print one day. Thank you for sharing this!
I havent seen the 3D version yet. I own the 3D blu ray (which also comes with the standard blu ray) and the standard is what I've always watched. With your word, I'll watch the 3D version next time I see this film, as I've heard 3D is excellent when done right. Cheers!
The only issue with the 3D Blu-ray is that Cameron chose to do it open-matte, so it fills the 16:9 screen . The theatrical 3D was in the original aspect ratio (at least when I watched it in 2012).
now that you mention that, I'm surprised there isnt one that is screening titanic. We get almost yearly screenings of this print here in Au. have a good one! Cheers
@@ClarkTeddles Thank you! I live up in Northern California (Sacramento) and sadly our only 70mm is our imax theatre which just showed OPPENHEIMER which is BEYOND! There is also a 70mm theater in San Francisco but haven’t seen it run titanic. THANKS FIR YOUR RESPONSE!
The Dts reader feeds the DTS timecode into the DTS processor, in which it detects the code and finds the correct track to play exactly in sync, it does all of this within 6 frames of reading the timecode. A much better explanation can be found in my Oppenheimer at the Ritz video. The Film-Tech Cinema Systems forum/website also has great information about it too. Cheers! have a great day
In addition to Clark's reply, the DTS system detects if there is a join or piece of film missing and instantly jumps the CD-R to the correct spot to keep it in sync. Personally I prefer the sound of 6 track magnetic sound - a system now only found on older 70mm or 35mm film prints as it is obsolete. The magnetic sound is much warmer and has more depth and presence than the DTS which I find a bit top-end heavy and shrill. When I screened DTS we ran the sound through a professional equalizer to make the sound a bit less harsh. The DTS system is the only sound source on DTS 70mm - so if your DTS reader, or processor fails there is no sound. On post-mono 35mm film there is usually multiple sound tracks to cover if one fails.
That is a scary weight. I much prefer to screen 70mm on spools - two projectors. Yes the thickness of magnetic sound adds substantial volume to a spool. @@ClarkTeddles
