The film currently listed at the scope filmography as THE BLIND SWORDSMAN'S VENGEANCE turns out to be an AKA for ZATOICHI'S VENGEANCE (1966), which now becomes the film's primary title.
In the same vein, the film currently listed as Indio Black, Sai Che Tico: Sei un Gran Figlio di... should actually be given as INDIO BLACK, SAI CHE TI DICO: SEI UN GRAN FIGLIO DI... (1970). And La Sorella di Satana should be given as IL LAGO DI SATANA (1965).
DOGORA is an AKA for DAGORA THE SPACE MONSTER (1964).
And PROMETHEUS (2012) has been earmarked for release in IMAX format, alongside the 35mm and D-Cinema versions, and this has been duly noted.
Corrections and updates from correspondents (thanks, guys!):
Following my recent posting about the frame-rates of various 3-panel processes, Gary Couzens has written to clarify an important point about CINERAMA'S RUSSIAN ADVENTURE (1965). The original Kinopanorama footage was shot at 25 frames per second, but new footage was shot in Cinerama at that format's standard 26fps and used as wraparound material. As Gary points out, it's highly likely the entire film was printed and exhibited at the Cinerama frame-rate of 26fps, with a corresponding 'speed-up' of sound and picture during the Russian documentary footage.
Gary also confirms that the sound format for SAMSARA (2011) is Dolby Digital 7.1, and that SILVER CITY (1984) was directed by Sophia Turkiewicz, not Sophie Turkiewicz as currently listed.
I tripped over my own enthusiasm (!) in the posting for 14 May 2012. S. Martin has written to clarify that THE GHASTLY LOVE OF JOHNNY X began production in 2006 but wasn't completed and/or released until 2012. Also, in the very same posting, I listed Michael Mann as the director of PAIN AND GAIN (2013), when it should have been Michael Bay. Big difference, I'm sure you'll agree.
Also, S. Martin points out that THE TELEGRAM MAN (2012, listed as a new entry in the other posting for 14 May 2012) is actually a short film, and it has now been dropped from the filmography. The blog entry has also been amended. He also reports that the 35mm section of MA PART DU GÂTEAU (2011) was filmed in Hawk Scope.
