Re: JAWS 2 Swimming to 4K Finally?
This'd definitely look great with a 4K polish.

Re: JAWS 2 Swimming to 4K Finally?
A new 4K remastered transfer with or without the HDR would be great by itself...Blu-Ray looks fine but it's an old master probably from the 2000-10 era.

I wish we could get the TV cut as an supplement like we've gotten with other 70s movies because the scene where Vaughn is the only one to vote not to fire Brody is really a nice one that elevates his character above the one-dimensional.

Before the franchise developed Fin rot.

Re: JAWS 2 Swimming to 4K Finally?
I always liked that scene, it didn't seem to have any reason to be cut other than Universal trying to end the movie faster.Eric Paddon wrote: ↑Wed Jan 18, 2023 8:24 pm I wish we could get the TV cut as an supplement like we've gotten with other 70s movies because the scene where Vaughn is the only one to vote not to fire Brody is really a nice one that elevates his character above the one-dimensional.

There's no 4th of July element in this movie. And summer ends in September.

Re: JAWS 2 Swimming to 4K UHD on 7/5
Just the same extras as before which is unfortunate. Looks like to get your TV cut released you have to be a lower-tiered Universal title!

Re: JAWS 2 Swimming to 4K UHD on 7/5
Yeah exactly, you need to have your title licensed to Shout or someone else to have that happen. And the days of major studios producing new extras...that's pretty much over outside the rogue release like DRAGONSLAYER. (Though if it were Sony, they'd probably have included the TV version!)

Re: JAWS 2 Swimming to 4K UHD on 7/5
Transfer on this is stellar!
The Daily Jaws Youtube channel has posted a slew of great new interviews with many cast/crew members. I'd highly recommend checking it out. Here's John Hancock talking about the un-usability of the Sackler script and his experience making his aborted version before he and his wife were fired:
Plus Ann Dusenberry and Gary Springer -- "Andy"!! (he's old...as we all are lol)

Re: JAWS 2 at 45 - UHD & General Thread
Great interviews. I had no idea that Ann Dusenberry was married to Brad Fiedel! Also great that her memorable "A-shuhhhhhh, a-shuhhhhhhhh, a-ShhhhhhhhhhUUUUUUUUAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRKKKKKKKK!" line delivery was suggested by Roy Scheider.
