Just checked DolbyLabs.com, and it says that it is not an EX print.

We have three prints, and I built one up today. It did not have the anti-piracy disclaimer. Attached trailer was The Last Samurai.

I have a question about how you folks here are building up Matrix Reloaded. At the head and tail of the reels, I noticed that the audio still continues past where the picture ends.Is this part of the movie? Im just curious to know where you are making your cut? Are you leaving a visible ID tag to help break down the print, or are you cutting where the audio continues and ends into the black frames?

There is also a short preview after the credits. Acording to the DTS disk serial # it is in EX.

Interesting, the dts serial number is a 5 digit, but the first is a "0", so while technically it is a 5 digit number, it is a 4 digit number.

To add further confusion, my leaders had "SRD-EX" clearly written on them.

Audio pullups huh, Matrix reloaded is the only print I have ever built up that has an Audio pullup that that looks like it's not supposed to be cut off from the main reel. I did 2 reels like that for a print check to be screened late last night for reloaded ( I did notify my management of it though before I started the first reel ).Usually, I can clearly tell where to cut ( even based on the audio pullup ). Matrix Reloaded fooled me, but It's an easy fix since it does not open till late tonight, but thanks for the info though. That helps out alot!

I don't think this movie is in EX/ES.

The clues for me are that our print did not pulse the CP-650 into AUTO-EX mode, and in addition to this, the end credits make absolutely no mention of it. All you have are the regular Dolby and DTS logos.
