I think we need to figure out how to apply these to the film in our restorations. I am encouraged that C-3PO comes out a bit brassy (on the greener side of gold) and a lot of the skin tones look fantastic. But the darker colors seem far too dark. I think we need to couple these with the Senator and other showings to understand how the dark colors appear when projected. I don’t think they come out quite that dark on the screen. Those Tatooine/Tunesia shots look way too yellow (as in unnaturally yellow) but the rest look great. Can’t wait to see more.
