Nice colors. I especially like the dark green in the Falcon cockpit.

One of the hardest parts about regrading the Grindhouse is knowing when to desaturate the blues, cyans, or greens. It’s weird when looking at Harmy’s Despecialized overlayed in the corner of the shots too (my GOUT sync/color sanity check process), because even though there was a lot of frame matching in the beginning, the frames rarely lined up 100% and it was almost as though the “flavor” of the original print was coming through. That’s umm… my story anyway and I’m sticking to it. In the single pass regrade I did, you can see the interior Vader ship just BLAZING with brilliant blue hues that are almost completely gray every other source I’ve seen. I desaturated that down quite a bit for this version but not completely. It just felt like the flavor was being lost somehow.
