They would do it if there was enough interest, but not even Z had such luck (as seen with the Level sets).dougo13 wrote:Yes, but they probably cleaned up the masters, much as the film preservation societies and TCM have done on some films. But that's very costly and I can't see a company like Toei even doing it.
As for movies like Lawrence of Arabia, it wasn't a mere preservation, it got a full 4K restoration from Sony. Ben-Hur is another example which got an 8K restoration from Warner.
