That is definately better than the previous colour matching attempt but it is not indistuinguishable in terms of colour/image dynamics, the picture on the left looks fine but the picture on the right looks unnatural in terms of fleshtones, Indiana’s eyes in particular look very bad on the right and not at all like the picture on the left. The only thing worse than getting the fleshtones looking unnatural is having the eyes looking unnatural.

This is just nonsense. The RGB values for the flesh tones are identical, as such the flesh tones are identical. It’s a mathematical certainty, and I mean this literally. The only difference between the two images is the DNR applied to the bluray, which obviously has some effect on some of the image dynamics. This information simply cannot be recovered by any methodology, least of all curves adjustment.
