Empire on the other hand will require considerably more work. Perhaps Poita or somebody has a better print, but I don’t have access to any great scans of Empire at the moment.A color corrected grindhouse would suffice for awhile.
The problem with that print though is that the colors are all over the place. Even within a single shot the colors flare from green to red often with parts of the same frame being wildly different. The fact is that the Grindhouse ESB has already been color corrected. TN1 spent months correcting the colors to make it look as good as it does, but short of photoshopping every single frame individually it’s just not going to get much better.
What I will do though, is go back to -1’s original 35mm ESB - the reels that are completely faded to red and that we really haven’t even looked at since about 2012 - and see if Dre’s tools can do anything for them.
