Wow. I had no idea this kind of quality video was possible 30 years ago. It's really cool to see HD footage this old.
Just one of these tapes had the capacity of a double layer Blu-Ray. It was truly ahead of its time but way too expensive for consumers. A whole era of HD 90s kino was at our fingertips.
>everyone in this video is dead
>everyone in that video were in the WTC on 9/11
sad
not this guy
probably one of the dancing Israelis
kek he sure is happy about this gig in particular
Where's stuck up hot girl?
It's his wife now.
This cant be real. Look at his eye brow. It's that simulation from the Matrix.
kek based thread
Uh, bros?
holy shit
I want to wear ironic nazi shirts
I love how some mutated version of the Seinfeld theme song is playing in the background
not interested in New York or east coast thx
and yet you bump the thread thx
There was an even earlier HD format, the HD Laserdisc, and it was entirely analog. Same fate though, too expensive for consumers (unless you were a rich jap). They were released between 1988-2000.
Here's a demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YW26YMe8iUQ
That’s the best vid of this thread
She is beautiful
I wish they kept them black and white, the AI color looks kind of shit
this is what you could get by the late 30s
Yeah, I appreciate it for the fact that it immerses you just a bit more, but it would be nice if the non-colourized versions were also uploaded side-by-side, just to avoid the weird AI colour crap
Japan version from 1992
>1992
>1992, Japan
I'm from Europe, both places are foreign
Europe edition
Based japs recording HD stuff in the 90s, thanks.
This looks better than current Japan, and it's even right after the bubble. RIP countries with aging population.
90s Japan was closer to boom-era Japan than 2000s Japan. The Bubble had burst but they probably thought it was temporary. Their habits, clothes, etc, didn't change, it wasn't something very visible.
I don't know. Japan is one of the few developed countries that hasn't changed much since the 90s
Why is the 90s Japan aesthetic so comfy
Good standard of living, and lack of information overload from the internet age
rewind 45 years
some real kino, love slice of life from the days before george w (satan) bush ruined america
It's things like this that make me sad.
I think peak America was about 1946-1971. Postwar prosperity, strong economic growth.
Things started to level off after then, but were still okay. But post-9/11, comfy america feels like it's on the decline.
It's not 9/11. The only "bad" aftereffects of 9/11 were the Patriot Act and the airport shit. But the militarization of police was already on its way. Shit additives in the food too. Same for obesity, crime rates, opioids (drug and crime were actually higher back then than now), immigration, you name it. These would still be here today. The one thing howere that messed it up for EVERYONE is social media, and social distrust. Mid-to-late 00s.
complete bullshit, bush opened up chinese export economy and was the start of outsourcing the american middle class to chinese slave warehouses
also it was where we shifted from comfy 90s culture into WHERE WERE YOUU WHEN THEM THERE TOWERS DID FALL and the fake patriotism that led to our braindead post-consumerism in short frick you homosexual he ruined this country
It can all be traced to the decline of white people's influence on American culture imo, and all of that started before 9/11.
I'm the guy you replied to, maybe you're right. Social media (and even other aspects of the internet) have really fricked us up. Also, young men have been ruined by internet porn.
Outsourcing was already on its way by 9/11. I think the economic downfall started during the early 70s. Reagan's "reforms" kind of covered that up.
a better soundtrack
?t=657
not a lot of Black folk, eh.
NYC has always kept them in their zones. NYC was much more violent in 1993 than now though.
I have a blank D-VHS tape, i think it has some TV recorded on it from Japan. Came in a bunch of shit I bought once
You should upload the shit.
1080i was dope
>that girl running in normal baggy clothes instead of modern skin tight yoga pants
Surreal
>1993 was 19 years ago
I want to go back to 2012. Shitpost on Cinemaphile, and then go to a david guetta concert bros. I need it.
Those were good times. I miss them...
dude so epic bro
i'm surprised that the traffic seems bearable
Damn, they even had pol in the 90s
>all those white people
>what if... what if we stop gatekeeping blacks for the next generation... it will be a funny joke for our kids
it looks good, larger format film has ridiculously high resolution. not sure if you could get 8k out of it, but some Hollywood movies with the original film may have remasters with even higher resolution one day
the daytime shots look kind of bad though since so much is overexposed, the night shots look really good
It's actually not film, but shot natively on electronic cameras. Not sure whether they are tube or CCD (they used both in the early HD days).
>OH N-
>what a cute looking gi-OH NO NO
Back when we were looking forward to our technological future with optimism
>I had no idea this kind of quality video was possible 30 years ago.
35mm film has resolution higher than 4k and has been around for a lot longer than that.
70mm has twice as much.
This isn’t film though, no grain
Film is not video
Doesn’t look that different honestly. Just a lot less whites these days
>Scorsese
Utter shit
Get a real director
(You)
We used to be a real country
