OK but does George Lucus have a calibrated monitor?
I imagine they designed them to match the gout master.
You imagine far too much.
Well I don’t imagine so far as the 97 broadcast version is concerned they do match up.
So this does mean it is not how i remember it and also it feels like what I have been trying to nail down what has happened… Do we have mixed colorspaces within the same film as of 2004. Look at the difference of the green laser color and stuff weird stuff going on similat to color error of using filters in wrong colorspace that well this thread proves you need to be in the right colorspace to use filters effectively on footage so as you get a true result or intended result.
Is this part of what has happened post 2004?
They simply digitally graded the new scan they made of the negative. Comparing the 2004 master with earlier telecines is comparing apples and oranges on a number of different levels. The 2004 version simply represents a completely different color grading done from scratch, while the telecines were sourced from color timed interpositives, where the telecine process itself introduces its own color signature, causing the final colors of the telecine to be only weakly correlated with the colors of the source.
