“Part of this is that the image has been made bright to account for the substantial light-loss caused by darkened 3D glasses, and further it would always occur when you’re restoring a nearly three-decade old film” Sorry. I think so. I don’t think restoration requires the changing of light and color, unless it is to get it back to what it was when the movie was originally released. Somehow, I don’t think T2 has been around long enough for it to lose its original light and color.
It points out in the very part you quoted that the light was adjusted to make the picture look normal through the darkened 3D glasses. All 3D movies do this or it would look like you were watching the film through sunglasses.
Then they need to do two versions: a 3D version with the light and color adjusted for the glasses and a 2D version with the light and color as originally done.
And I dunno what info you have on the subject, but plenty of time has passed for the color to have faded, darkened, ect.
not that much, and by the time T2 was made they had gotten better at preserving movies.
As for removing Robert’s balls from view, I don’t care.
As for replacing the stunt mans visible face with Arnold’s, I like it.
Fine for you, but some of use want to see movies exactly as they were originally made.
As for this version replacing the original, don’t we have T2 in high enough quality for this to pretty much be a non-issue?
If you are going to re-release an altered version of the movie in higher quality, you need to do the same with the original. Technology improves. we’ve gone from vhs to laserdisc to dvd to blu ray, and no to 4k. The original version shouldn’t be left in the dust.
May I remind you what forum we are on?
