Author Topic: Dark Water Wet Reels Rachel Craven Madam Moderator Posts: 2190 From: Pensacola, FL Registered: Dec 2000 posted 07-08-2005 10:57 AM                     Did anyone get the famous first and second wet reels for Dark Water yesterday? We got three calls from technicolor all asking if we recieved them wet or if they were in good condition. To care that much there must have been a pretty big problem... One technicolor employee also commented that it should be screened because even a few people that did not recieve the reels wet where complaining of water stains.

Our reels were fine though.  |  IP: Logged Tim Reed Better Projection Pays Posts: 5246 From: Northampton, PA Registered: Sep 1999 posted 07-08-2005 12:19 PM                       There's skip-bleach/bypass-bleach, and 1000 mph printers, but I don't think they're going to get too far with BYPASS DRYING!  |  IP: Logged Mark J.

We got a call from Technicolor on Dark Water reels being wet, but our print was fine. Our Fantastic Four was handled by "The Grey Can People".  |  IP: Logged Joseph Pandolfi Expert Film Handler Posts: 213 From: Milford, CT.
