A Mesc original - Making The Impossible Possible Get new release alerts and connect: https://mescoriginals.com/ Personal Notes: I went to rewatch this on Fat Tuesday 2026, ran into a streaming error, and decided it was time to revisit the project. Fun fact: That was also the night I dialed in my Family Guy 4K HDR workflow. I had a killer idea I needed to act on and scrapped something that was nearly finished so I wouldn’t lose the momentum — not my most conventional testing session (yes, I was hammered), but the results spoke for themselves. This release reflects what I originally envisioned for my version of the film. Playback issues with Plex streaming have also been resolved. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Technical Notes: Default audio is English 5.1 DTS-MA. Also included are the standard English and German 5.1 DTS tracks. Subtiltes included are English, French, German, Danish, Finnish, Norwegian, and Swedish. All stills were taken from an 8K HDR screen. Before (left) and after (right) stills are not full frame. Enjoy.
