Anything really. Mainly to see if the yellow tint is gone.

That is yellow to the extreme. Unless it's just the lighting but from experience, old Dragon Ball didn't really do that.

Agreed. Although, it's still nowhere near as bad as Kai TFC's green tint so it's doable.

Looking forward to purchase the Movies on Blu-ray if FUNimation licenses them which is likely but probably not any time soon. Everything in its time, and with patience.

Its not lightning, DB movie 4, and DBZ movies 4 - 7, and 9 - 13 all need CC to some extent(some more than others).

That doesn't sound right. Why would the other movies be rescanned and remastered, while movie 5 would be an upscale?

That's why I said I wasn't sure. Movie 5 is the "worst" looking one out of the bunch so far. Something about it looks a little off. Maybe what I'm interpreting as an upscale is just DNR? Not sure, like I said I'll post some pictures of movie 5 later on today.

The first 3 minutes of movie 5 was scanned onto 16mm film (vs the rest of the movie which is 35mm film), and looks much softer/ grainier than the rest of the film.

They were using footage from the Bardock special and probally didnt want to rescan it.

Depends. What media player are you using? VLC has some issues and actually alters the image in colour and makes banding more visible.

That and the fact that 16mm will ALWAYS look softer than 35mm due to the detail difference between the two film stocks, there's just no getting around that unless Toei actually retained all of the original raw elements for the Bardock special (cels for the backgrounds, characters and objects etc...) before they were shot to film which they probably didn't.
If anyone has any of the DB/DBZ/DBGT or Maho Tsuaki Sally Japanese single DVD's that they'd be interested in selling send me a PM and I'll see if we can work something out. ;).

These are from Movie 5, I don't think it looks as good as the other ones.
