Can The Lord of the Rings Ever be Remastered?

@tvaziri This revisionist filmmaking nonsense irks me to no end.

@quister the movie is the movie

it’s a moment in time

@tvaziri thanks for sharing, I’ll give it a watch 🤓 I wonder the same thing about other early 2000s movies like Master and Commander, which I wish had a remaster.
@tvaziri maybe not, but soon it will be remAIstered, no doubt.
@tvaziri thanks, now I’m depressed
@tvaziri The smoothing out of the grain kills me on the newest releases.
@tvaziri That B&W preview is amazing. In monochrome those movies would look like a twelve hour Smiths music video directed by Anton Corbijn and I am totally into that

@tvaziri this makes me all the more want to see Christopher Nolan’s restoration of 2001 to the theatrical release that he showed at Cannes.

Christopher Nolan returns Kubrick sci-fi masterpiece '2001: A Space Odyssey' to its original glory

One of cinema's best current directors, Christopher Nolan, is supervising a restoration of a classic film by one of the all-time greats Stanley Kubrick. His restored "2001: A Space Odyssey" will debut in Cannes. Unlike other restorations, this one isn't digital — it's pure film.

@tvaziri Man… I was having a _good_ day!
@tvaziri thanks for sharing, it was interesting ! (and I saw the Lindsay's video essay he points out as well!)
